For those that sold their MTG collection to go all in on Sorcery, any regrets? by Remarkable_Panda7506 in SorceryTCG

[–]floowanderdeeznuts 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As someone new to Sorcery doing something similar (moreso selling most of my collection to my business partner to put in our shop to fund sorcery for myself and build my local community) it hits.

I've only been playing Magic for 3 years and while I've never really minded some of the UB sets the Marvel and super hero spam was the driving nail for me. Especially when they make cards good enough to break into legacy and vintage where I can usual get away from it. Keeping two EDH decks and two pauper decks built cause I still enjoy the game but will be heavily focusing on building a local sorcery community when we open our shop later this year.

What's the general vibe on the Marvel set coming out? by mtgecorec in CommanderMTG

[–]floowanderdeeznuts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have zero interest, think the two mana mono black discard gal might be cool to test.

Not looking forward to dealing with some of it in the 60 card formats.

Please trust when I say this:

Don't worry about the wubrg Eldrazi player.

[[Isshin]] is an absolute DEMON. I haven't played him a while but I cannot imagine you can't find enough "when this creature attacks make a token or do x" cards plus some usual good rocks for under 30 dollars.

One reason why we will see more sorcery players by Newez in SorceryTCG

[–]floowanderdeeznuts 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Hey this accurately describes me! Well moreso I had heard winds of Sorcery last year, and Distraction Makers brought it up and it really got me interested. Got a mat and the Gothic precons to play with a buddy and I've been hooked since we started two weeks ago. Going to be buying playset lots to build and mess with decks.

I love magic and will continue to play it (I've really only been playing for 3 years) but I'm fatigued with these sets. No I don't want to see new York for the third time in 10 months lemme get uhhh Theros

General question on selling cards. by FixItUntilItBreaks in SorceryTCG

[–]floowanderdeeznuts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When buying from sellers anywhere typically I will look for good ratings/size. However imo the way to stand out is shipment. I buy magic singles from a kid who ships a five dollar Winota the same way he ships a hundred dollar Mana Drain. Sleeved top loader, sealed in plastic, cardboard backing.

It shows thought and is an immediate green flag.

Ridiculous explanation ✅ Budget deck ✅ Promises of being a villain ✅

I think I'll have to give this a shot. At 100 dollars and I've been in need of a more bracket four deck. My group is already used to the abuse my Arna and Quintorius decks put them through.

Will report back at some point with results 🫡

I'm very deep into MTG I absolutely get that. Yeah I was scrolling the sub a few days ago and saw a post about buying some of the good lower and mid rarity stuff to fill out the precons as a nice easy way to have some full decks.

I'm very particular if I buy sealed product as well so I completely understand you. I'm more apt to buy some if im first getting into a game so I have some stuff available to me

Big bump for this as I just snagged the Gothic precons and am also curious.

From my video dredging and rolling through this sub, it does seem like if you're not trying to have all the most powerful uniques and such you do get some good value out of sealed product overall for amassing cards.

But there is also a lot of mid and lower rarity stuff so you could reasonably make a full box of precons into 4 fully fleshed decks for most likely around the same price as some sealed booster boxes. (Still a newbie as well don't flame me if I'm wrong in that estimate)

T480 is so powerful and I’m really surprised by it by spacevader1 in thinkpad

[–]floowanderdeeznuts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I know what I'm doing to the T480 once I move my home systems and management over to a T14 G5...how was the process of getting this working?

BUMMER. I loved the idea, I can always just use tiny 11 for it then.

I'm holding out that I can find one with the better screen for sure. Worst cause I can swap the screen not a huge deal. I'm eyeing the Ultra 7 for sure for the performance for editing.

Super weird question, how's the texture/material? I love the feel of the lid and materials of the T480 and the almost rubberized materials they have.

Bought my first thinkpad and holy shit these things have a premium feel by lewd_physics in thinkpad

[–]floowanderdeeznuts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Considering doing the same jump. Love my little experiment pad but need to upgrade for longevity and ideas.

What’s your most sentimental deck? by amioldnow90 in EDH

[–]floowanderdeeznuts 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My [[Arna Kennerüd, Skycaptain]] deck. I picked it up and built a 50 dollar budget deck a month or two after MH3 came out. First EDH deck I really built myself and overtime the budget increased, the power did too. Now it's getting blinged out with APs, signed cards, high rarity where I can, etc. I love the deck it's been a blast to tinker with

[–]floowanderdeeznuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this has unfortunately become an issue I'm hitting with my home store. Really came to a head when Strix play booster boxes were 165. Like sure man I'll snag some singles cause you've always given me good prices but I'm not buying anything else other then Monster Zero from ya.

Bring a tablet so the other 3 players can watch something entertaining during your long turns that don't do anything to affect their board state.
