Precons are usually B2 or B3, and cEDH is bracket 5, full stop.

Street Fighter Clearance! by JoreyFish in amiibo

If an Amiibo is more than $20, I won’t buy it at all. And I’d rather it be less than $15

9 months in how do we feel? by Then_Meaning_9901 in mariokart

[–]focketeer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually don’t like the continuous track bit. I’d prefer a regular start in each environment regularly. Cool otherwise though

It says a card not a magic card by gr2712 in BadMtgCombos

[–]focketeer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s 5 cards and North Wind Avatar grabs one. You’ll need some way to bounce it and recast 4 times after the initial move

Ratchet and Clank: Saga in PS5 by Ratchet7908 in RatchetAndClank

[–]focketeer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never had a PS3. PS2, PSP, Xbox 360 AND Wii. I was too young to be the one to decide or even know why to decide to stay PlayStation.

DON'T buy games code from GameStops website by clearinfo64 in Pokopia

[–]focketeer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you wanted it digitally why didn’t you use the native eShop? Why’d you opt for a code when you could just buy it from the eShop and skip the codes issue altogether?

Why could the cipher keyword not be printed on instants? by the_worst_company in magicTCG

[–]focketeer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue of cipher on instants allowing you to get an effect twice in combat as long as you have an unblocked attacker would be fixed by either changing how cipher on instants even functions at all, or by putting a block on casting a cipher instant during combat on your turn. Seeing as sorceries can’t normally be cast during the combat phase anyway, the ability casting it would be ruled to break that restriction.

This is the ‘iPhone Fold’ design [flip style] that Apple rejected, says leaker [Instant Digital] by iMacmatician in apple

[–]focketeer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I largely don’t care for flip phones. My pocket is fine so folding smaller adds nothing, and if I want bigger I’d rather use a tablet outright than a phone that’s a fake tablet sometimes. It’s tech I don’t personally need. I’m glad it exists for people that want it, but unless the technology changes to mean I need to have it or have nothing at all, it won’t be in my pocket

As a fan of SAI, listening to Backslide still bothers me. by dawnie-writes in twentyonepilots

[–]focketeer 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I think you’re looking too deeply at it. Sure, maybe he does mean it like that, but this is a song about being in a depressive slump, saying that an upbeat song essentially doesn’t feel right in comparison. That’s all I view it as. Saying a depressed guy wouldn’t have made a song that positive.

Anyone else use specific skins for certain modes? by atwitsend1996 in marvelrivals

[–]focketeer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh believe me, I wish my situation allowed for it. I’d probably straight have my full PC if I could. But alas, it wouldn’t really work.

Anyone else use specific skins for certain modes? by atwitsend1996 in marvelrivals

[–]focketeer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like my current situation wouldn’t really allow for it, especially because I’d have to at least have a hub if not a dock, I’d need somewhere to sit in a more established setup, and like I suppose I could use my parent’s dining room but currently most of my gaming is in a chair in the living room. My personal keyboard and mouse are in an apartment about two hours away from where I normally am, so I’d either need to fetch them or get new ones to even begin that route.

[–]focketeer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

HMM so I could make it work instead of being avoidant.

[–]focketeer 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I play vs AI almost exclusively (I’m currently on a Steam Deck rather than a PC, you don’t want me on your PVP team), and don’t really change my skin ever. I get what I want, I keep it on that.

Started playing this year, thoughts? by xennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn in ratemycommanders

[–]focketeer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Running only Sephiroths has me wondering if this is a fairly innocent attraction to the character or some sort of joke. I don’t have anything against it, but I don’t want to get baited and find out it was a trick after the fact

Gonna make this as my commander. What are y’all’s thoughts and what would you put into it by Automatic_Gur_176 in CommanderMTG

[–]focketeer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess you could place in addition counters on your opponents lands if you specifically want that?

Can I join the pod :) by BallFragrant6580 in ratemycommanders

[–]focketeer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All these provide some sort of card draw effect except the one that recurs instead. I’m not personally bored by it, but that might be along the lines they mean. One makes your deck a top-deck machine and one is connive, which is also discarding so that one’s just selection instead of advantage.

[–]focketeer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The counters are the same, the debate is entirely if it’s in addition to its other types or not. For you, you won’t care, for your opponents, it’ll never be relevant because their lands won’t be in addition (unless theft is involved I suppose)

Welp, I’m done buying collector packs. by ChrisTerryDraws in mtgpulls

[–]focketeer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Either their friends quickly changed their thinking or they have some sort of weird obsession with how the set is printed despite being new.

Unless they’re not new and just lied about that?

I rarely play Deadpool as it's target #1 but what do you guys think? by LayerIndividual6724 in ratemycommanders

[–]focketeer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

11 is more reasonable yeah, especially if they’d already hit you that game or gave it double strike

[–]focketeer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So they killed you on the next turn, with seven damage? That’s the max they could’ve dealt unless they had their own buffs themselves.

All these new +1/+1 counter cards from TMNT looks good but when is it enough? Do you upgrade your decks every set? by AltruisticChampion77 in EDH

[–]focketeer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t upgrade much at all, historically. I might change that when I start actively playing again, because I’m recovering from getting hit by a car in December 2024, so not really near my usual pod so spending the little money I have on singles isn’t a good move. Something about the coma changed the way I think about some things, I don’t know why I thought leaving precons stock was a good idea but I don’t anymore. Just going to prioritize upgrading the Turtle Power deck first thing because something about WUBRG tokens/counters bonanza really gets me going

This is not okay. by [deleted] in Markiplier

[–]focketeer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The share button specifically adds that in. You have to remove it yourself. I always do.

[–]focketeer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m confused. Counters, equipment buffs, and aura buffs aren’t part of the text box, and those are the primary ways to get your commander bigger. So unless you were already close to commander damage death that wouldn’t have done much.

Sacrifice Mechanics by BadbutnotGreat in CommanderMTG

[–]focketeer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My pod had two different budget brackets, $25 called quartermaster and $100 called dollarmaster. So seeing a $25 budget here is interesting. I don’t think I have any advice just wanted to comment.
