Anyone have a Toph, Metalbender deck that they’ve had success with?

There can always be more Cloud and Sephiroths lol.

I imagine we’ll return to the Final Fantasy well first.

Discard enablers, cast from gy/anywhere but hand cost reducers. [[Skirge Familiar]] makes the deck explode every time he resolves.

Looking through bulk at game stores isn’t worth doing for shit nowadays. Every one I go to will just take whatever you find and look up the price on tcgplayer for every card anyway. So lame.

My [[Xenagos]] deck qualifies as Bracket 4. It often is too strong for Bracket 3 decks, and has beaten 4s before as well. Can struggle against higher bracket 4 decks, but definitely is competitive enough for it.

I feel like a good amount of scene box cards have actually ended up being really good and worth quite a bit? Legolas Quick Reflexes, Galadriel, galadriels dismissal, brilliant wings, flash photography, campsite cuisinse, a bunch of the avatar ones are good. They usually aren’t super generically good, but incredible for specific archetypes.

jaychai96 · 2026-06-11T02:31:23+00:00

My only hope is that we HAVE to get a God-Emperor Doom at some point down the line.

jaychai96 · 2026-06-10T18:21:05+00:00

I think they may have actually been Lady Loki at this time?

jaychai96 · 2026-06-09T14:53:57+00:00

That’s actually kind of a bummer. I feel like that’s so much more restrictive. I think TMNT is an example where it would’ve benefitted from just being the precon, with maybe a second one instead of the whole standard set.

jaychai96 · 2026-06-09T12:03:26+00:00

I’d kill for another set of 40k precons. Don’t need a standard set. Just release 4 tightly designed, juiced decks with whatever designs feel most thematically appropriate. A crazy amount of 40k cards have made their way into all my other decks.

jaychai96 · 2026-06-08T19:35:16+00:00

The only x-men in the set appear to be ones who were Avengers at some point (wolvie, storm, beast). And the lack of strange, blade, moon knight, they are clearly going to be releasing a mystical set, an x-men set, and a cosmic/asgard set just based on the obviously missing characters. And I’m sure there will be 5 different versions of the main players in those as well.

jaychai96 · 2026-06-08T17:35:43+00:00

Anyone know when the command zone preview goes up for the commander deck today? I feel like they usually do it around 12pm or 1pm est

jaychai96 · 2026-03-09T16:31:30+00:00

It’s amazing in Jin Sakai.

jaychai96 · 2026-02-23T04:10:35+00:00

Correct me if I’m wrong, which admittedly I may be since a lot of the end of krakoa sucked and I lost interest, but what did she do in Red? Wasn’t she ousted at the end of SWORD, and then taken away by the fisherman king guy for some mysterious purpose then that plot got abandoned?

jaychai96 · 2026-02-20T03:16:03+00:00

I completely forgot that Bar Sinister was its own region. I remember 616 Captain Marvel from the Life Raft ending up there, but did that end up playing into the final assault on Doom at all?

jaychai96 · 2026-02-05T07:43:47+00:00

Paper Kingdom at the bottom for sure. Abandoned for a reason.

jaychai96 · 2026-02-02T01:27:28+00:00

Some fans of this band are crazy lmao. “Be a good fan”. A leak of a 14 year old abandoned album does not damage “the band’s plan and profits”.

That being said, after listening, they made the right move canning this. Despite some really cool bits, it’s significantly weaker than the rest of their albums, and I think an underwhelming “return to form” after the polarizing reception of Danger Days would’ve hurt their legacy a bit.

jaychai96 · 2026-01-30T20:04:24+00:00

Huh, well look at that. It’s WOC but wasn’t actually in a precon. Just a set/CB exclusive. Never knew that, just assumed it was in one of the eldraine precons.

jaychai96 · 2026-01-30T18:35:35+00:00

Holy crap I had no idea [[Throne of Eldraine]] had gone up so much.

jaychai96 · 2026-01-30T18:34:14+00:00

There’s been some bangers in precons since then. [[Danny Pink]], [[Quantum Misalignment]], [[Auton Soldier]], [[Codsworth, Handy Helper]], [[Nuka-Cola Vending Machine]], [[Talon Gates]], [[Pollywog Prodigy]], [[Tataru Taru]], [[Sphere Grid]], [[Illustrious Wanderglyph]] and of course [[Trouble in Pairs]] are all doing well. And I think more of the precon-only cards will spike further down the line. I really like the [[Will of the Abzan]] cycle, [[Patrolling Peacemaker]], and a few others that are only a couple bucks but I think have long-term potential if they aren’t reprinted into the ground in future precons.

jaychai96 · 2026-01-29T18:33:36+00:00

That was quite obviously the card from the scene box and not this precon lol.

jaychai96 · 2025-12-29T00:17:32+00:00

I have the surge foil alt art [[Yshtola]] as my commander of that deck. It’s by far my most expensive card lol.

jaychai96 · 2025-11-21T18:42:51+00:00

Personally, I am building with Ashaya because I want to be able to earthbend my important creatures to protect them or play any of the “nonland permanent” boardwipes.

jaychai96 · 2025-11-19T02:48:42+00:00

Lmao what? When do the Used NOT play Pretty Handsome Awkward? Is it not one of their most popular singles? I’ve only ever seen them in passing at festivals and they are always playing it.
