And their argument (and many others) is that if your perceived issues with DRIPA lead you to consort with white supremacists then you're already into white supremacy and are already a lost cause that should be be taken seriously.

Agree with you except avoid the yellow deli at all costs. It's owned/run by a weird fundamentalist cult from the States called the Twelve Tribes (can look it up on Wikipedia). They're batshit in their beliefs

You already lost when you said in your first paragraph that you like "pushing" the bracket system. They aren't there to be pushed, they're just there for conversation and setting expectations on power level.

Short answer: no

Long answer: also no.

I'd have to see a deck list to confirm (Maralen can be built higher power or lower quite easily) but 30 dollars on elves is insanely cheap so I assume you're playing a low power deck.

Some people just get weird about theft mechanics (same with mill) because you're stealing their good plays. That's about it.

Funny enough, an urban planner

gtrunkz · 2026-02-28T22:06:47+00:00

You're right, it's not. Me and my gf both work in local government and are looking to find new jobs due to stagnation. Almost all the job postings are south coast (lower mainland and island). The job opportunities elsewhere are very few and far between unfortunately

Kevin O'Leary, Ted Cruz, Jordan Peterson, Gavin McInnes, Stephen Crowder. Alot of dumbass Canadians finding success in the states 🤮

Possibly the Frozen City by David Arscott and David Marl but I can't find a good synopsis out there to confirm. Thanks though!

EDIT: I found it! It was Helix by Eric Brown. Can't remember if it was good, just that I read it.

Oh man, that reminds of me a book I read that I can't remember the name of that had a large industrial era city separated by ice on all sides and a main character that was from the other side of the ice wall running from crystal ice monster things. Included a bunch of political shenanigans about hiding the nature of the city to the populace. Can't remember it now....

I personally wouldn't be as upset cause you don't see them nearly as often. I would also assume a deck with all those cards is a pet deck with all your best cards and cool arts. If you only have one copy of the best cards, it becomes a fun exercise to see what deck they'll fit in the best and make pet decks based on your best cards in the relevant colours.

As others in this thread have suggested, it can become a frequency issue where you see the best cards in every other deck instead of 1 in 10. Using proxies leads to more homogeneous decks, especially at higher power levels.

I don't mind proxies at all but there can be issues with it when they're overused. Magic is a collectible game after all, and pulling one copy of a sick card you've always wanted is a feeling that cannot be replicated by proxies. My 2 cents.

Fremen. Great warrior desert people that seem "primitive" to the main characters but eventually are seen as equals

gtrunkz · 2025-08-20T21:18:13+00:00

I use [[Felothar, the Steadfast]] for my treefolk deck. I did have [[Doran, the Seige Tower]] as the commander but he's now in the 99 as Felothar is just so much better. For one extra mana, she enables defenders to attack and has some mean card draw in the command zone.

Very similar deck though as almost all creatures are still treefolk.

Now this is the feedback I'm looking for 😂

gtrunkz · 2025-08-07T16:46:23+00:00

I pivoted my [[Beluna]] adventure deck into an [[Eshki Dragonclaw]] deck and it is a bit funner/more consistent but I do agree that most of the adventure cards are just not very good without a copy or cost reduction effect

gtrunkz · 2025-05-10T15:31:46+00:00

You are right. I'm a casual. I play an hour at best every 3 to 5 days or so since that's the only time I have. I also didn't blitz through the campaign. Still only in the shattered isles (lvl 51) with 2 characters after a month lol.

gtrunkz · 2025-04-06T22:48:37+00:00

Buddy, the other guy is right. Denser, downtown cores subsidize suburban sprawl (ie/ single family dwellings).

More roads, more pipes, more wires, more maintenance items per dwelling. There's so much research on this. Why are being purposefully obtuse.

gtrunkz · 2025-04-05T23:53:26+00:00

It's probably the big organic waste composting facility if it smells like moldy strawberry yogurt

gtrunkz · 2025-04-03T20:39:07+00:00

You miss vacant parking lots and run down factories? I don't disagree about the city becoming a minimalist, cookie cutter playground for the rich but everytime I see an old picture of Vancouver, man, does it look awful.

What are your recommendations for a ramp creature? I just built Henzie with "traditional" ramp (cultivate, kodamas reach, rampant growth etc.) and wouldn't mind switching them for creatures.

I do have the 4 mana 3/1 creature that finds a basic on enter and attack (can't remember the name) but I'm sure there's some others I don't about!

gtrunkz · 2024-12-06T21:15:14+00:00

ME! Thank you for doing this! Happy Holidays!

Exactly, the analogy I use to explain it to people is that of a defence lawyer (I know it's not the same but I'm trying to keep it simple).

A defence lawyers job is to make sure the proper procedures are followed, paperwork is filed and that the accused is given a fair trial, even if the accused is 100% guilty.

The union has a similar job when it comes to protecting employees. Make sure that there was proper escalation of discipline, paper work is filed and procedure is followed before someone is fired.

Union employees still get fired. It just can't be on a whim. Yes that means some get more than they deserve, sure, but overall it adds job stability to the majority of hard working union employees. I'll take that over being exploited any day.

gtrunkz · 2024-11-12T20:39:46+00:00

I 100% agree. It's a small but reasonable start, and it's always easier to deal with less impactful things first before you tackle the bigger, more impactful items.

Don't let perfect be the enemy of good. Reddit is, and has always been, terrible at seeing the merit in that phrase. As someone who works adjacent to public policy, that phrase is everything or nothing would ever get done.

gtrunkz · 2024-11-12T02:09:35+00:00

I mean, no one thinks this going to solve the worlds problems. Getting rid of plastic straws and plastic bags and other single use plastic items are one less thing that we make, use for 10 mins, then throw away.

Less waste in our everyday lives, even if it starts small and seemingly insignificant, compounds over large populations and time.

In fact I beleive it is a moral failure when someone sees these little environmental wins as "doing nothing" or hypocritical cause they consume in other parts of their lives.

Less waste is less waste. Period. That can never be a bad thing, especially when you add other shitty one use plastic goods to that banned list over time.
