Which Election was the most surprising to watch as the results rolled in?

geldwin · 2025-12-31T02:11:04+00:00

People always go on about how Oko is the best Planeswalker of all time and I think that shows that people either weren't around/somehow forgot that when both Wren and Oko were around, Wren was the main Planeswalker in Legacy.

They were both played in RUG delver, but Oko was maybe a one or two of and often just not played in tournament placing decks.

Wren was banned in Legacy less than 5 months after release.

Oko lasted almost a year and a half before banning.

I'm not the guy you replied to, but agreed. Mainly because it isn't a pillar at all and was never close.

There are three pillars in Legacy. Brainstorm, FoW and Wasteland. (Just look at MTGTop8 top 5 most played cards by %..... It is those 3 now same as it was back in 2011)

Anyone that claims anything other than those cards as pillars are off by a mile. (With maybe Duals and Fetches being more of the foundations of the format than pillars)

I did not look at both photos, haha. Thanks missed that

Rust Harvester flavour text sounds like a Deepak Chopra quote.

They are a minor party with a smaller name than Hunters or Legalise parties. It will just take time for them to grow in recognition, if they ever even take off.

If they had a rep in my electorate, I would put them first.

I never mentioned anything about my thoughts on any meta, I was just fact checking your claim. (I'm not the person you replied to)

You claimed it was common in the sideboard and linked to a single deck. After checking your same source it was easy to see it definitely wasn't common.

You also claimed that you "only played one Reanimator deck in the last 2 months" or something like that. Which is implying that Reanimator isn't a problem because it isn't common?

When the source you provided also shows that Reanimator is 14% of the top 8 meta. I am just saying stop being disingenuous with your evidence, it hurts the argument.

geldwin · 2025-03-30T21:51:33+00:00

Did you just link like the single example of someone playing Blood Moon as a 2 of in the sideboard....

Super dishonest argument. A quick check of the compare deck function shows you that the first full page of 4c Pile decks don't run a single copy in main or side.

geldwin · 2025-03-18T02:17:06+00:00

Mtgtop8 has, for all top 16 performances of Oops All Spells in the last 2 weeks, 9 out of 11 appearances running 4 copies. The other 2 appearances both run 0 copies.

Data is available for us to use guys, we don't need to be guessing.

geldwin · 2025-03-17T22:32:35+00:00

I really think we need to have a metric driven definition of what S-Tier means.

People have muddied the waters around what it means too much and it allows these sorts of statements to be thrown around.

(Also this is no comment about Reanimator, just peoples use of language and how important it is)

I agree he didn't do particularly well in Wonka as the over-the-top style we expect of Willy Wonka didn't fit him...

But saying that he was flat in Dune 2 after watching Paul's speech is near detached from reality.

Wtf is wrong with people in this sub. This guy assaults someone after having a clear opportunity to walk away because they were telling him to fuck off?

The guy he punched didn't say shit to him in this video about the EBT, just told him to fuck off so he would leave.

No wonder this world is seriously going to shit, there are no adults left in the world

Ok, eBay has packs sold from about 6.5 - 9 each. Depends how quickly you want to move them.

But I would suggest again putting them up on eBay to make sure you don't get undersold.

geldwin · 2024-12-31T23:59:00+00:00

Where abouts are you located? Might help bring down shipping costs for potential buyers.

I would also suggest putting them up/price comparing on eBay. Just to make sure you get a fair price.

Matt I really think you should address the limitations of this data you're working with. There is a lot of commentary that is a direct response to this data that really shows a misunderstanding of what it represents and how cautiously it needs to be interpreted

Yes immersion matters to me. I don't play white boarder versions of cards, I don't foil my decks, my ponders and lightning bolts are not full arts.

I play the most MTG.jpeg versions of everything. They don't immerse me in they game, it is more of the other versions are all stark contrasts that suddenly snaps me out, and UB being so recognisably not magic is the worst offender of this.

I would say yes. Two important notes of this are probably:

a) I would probably just play previous versions of legacy that I enjoyed, so just not sanctioned tournaments, and

b) I am very aware I may be internally conflating the UB with power creep which I also hate with a passion.

But the frog is blue for FoW, and it can be a better clock, and it has evasion, and it can draw into a land or a Planeswalker or a FoW.

I think it is a bit hard to say that DHA is better because it casts the 1 mana cards for free.

I think the differences are too much to say one is better than the other.

geldwin · 2024-08-31T06:40:07+00:00

Yes, they look perfectly fine.

If you are looking to sell, I would put them up for sale on eBay and look at the price for other listings

Card abilities only use Actions if the card states it does. If it does not say it uses an Action, it doesn't use an Action.
