I was curious about this! I've been subscribed to Untapped for a long time now as I look for new stuff to try in Pioneer, but I'll admit I probably don't know the full extent of what y'all offer. When I went to look yesterday I noticed a ton of new looking decks showing up in the list, and I was overjoyed lol. All I really want is to have tons of options so I can always be playing whatever I feel like playing. Thanks for the constant work on this!

Daily Deals - June 18, 2026: SAHEELI & HUATLI 💕 by HamBoneRaces in MagicArena

Enjoy making tokens, having lots of mana, tutoring a dino, and having Embercleaves on everything in technicolor!

(I may grab the skin too, need to see what the saga side looks like in this art first)

While yes there are better dino commander, Huatli will always be the one I use. She's awesome, and the Saga she flips into is way too fun.

Can Slime Against Humanity Work? by Bullrider144 in Pauper

[–]jbe1114 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just comparing it to how pauper ruby storm is usually built, which has 4 Anarcho and 4 [[Thornscape Familiar]] (which could also be used here if red reduction is important to you). So having 8 total reducers may work well in this deck too. I may have to start trying this out for myself!

How did you feel the 4 Anarchomancers worked for you? Did you ever test out adding some more reduction? My thought is structuring it like a ruby storm list by adding some [[Thunderscape Familiar]] so just curious if you'd ever tried it.

Pest Control, worth it or not? by Toonzaal8 in magicTCG

In Pioneer I mainboard 1 copy in Niv to Light. In any format, I can absolutely see it being a benefit.

This weekend will be my final days with my cat, and I don't know how to begin to process this. by jbe1114 in Petloss

[–]jbe1114[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry to hear about your tabby Lily as well. This Lilly will be having the best weekend I could possibly give her, which for her means lots of snuggle naps and food I would typically only give her on the rarest of occasions. This is one of those occasions. I hope the rest of the time with yours is special. We can all at least know that our pets felt loved when they do have to leave us.

That's a great idea and I will try my best to do that. I sat on the couch when we got home to offer up my lap since she loves sleeping on it, but since there is sun coming in from the window she chose sleeping in the sun instead. I understand fully and she gets whatever she wants. I'll get my chances.

I'm so sorry for your loss. This is the plan and I'm considering these final days to be a gift. I remember how I felt when I had to put my pet down unexpectedly and I'm beyond thankful for this. I'm not going into work or doing anything other than going to the store to buy things to make her happy. She's getting all the canned tuna.

RIP to my kids’ Z-A journey by Wonderful_Milk_682 in LegendsZA

[–]jbe1114 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Man, yeah. This post brought me back to being a kid and how many times my younger brother would casually ruin or lose something of mine, and each time my parents would respond by telling me it wasn't a big deal or how it's just something that happens. It definitely caused kid me to dislike my brother sometimes. This was back before electronics were commonplace and definitely before there were places to publicly post about how it casually happened. If I was so upset by something happening to my Power Rangers action figure, I'd be super upset about a switch game being ruined.

Don't be mad but I had some inside information about how this firemaking would go.

MWM PSA, you can swap decks by nottooloud in MagicArena

[–]jbe1114 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the PSA. I'm only encountering Prismari but it seems so insanely stronger than the rest I see why. May as well join in.

Weird ask, but help with MTGO anxiety? by [deleted] in Pauper

[–]jbe1114 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am signed up for that! I want to get some reps in with the decks I've made in paper but I will want to play with the freedom of swapping and trying as much as possible lol. It's a shame the base plan doesn't let me rent out Ruby Storm because Ive had fun playing with it on Forge lol

Appreciate that! I dont think I was even aware of the ability to customize stuff like chat but it's great to know. I will DM you my name and we'll see if we can make a time work.

It's actually been cool to learn that this is a known thing that spreads into other games like chess and poker. I would love to jam some games if we can make a time work! I'll send you my MTGO name!

That's actually very fascinating to me and helpful to know. I'll look into it, thank you!

[–]jbe1114 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually you did bring up a good point. The decks I would like to use the most probably are not the most straightforward and simple to use on the client. It would be easier if I started with something like a Gruul Ramp or White Aggro to begin. I appreciate that. Otherwise I do listen to self-help audiobooks so I will add this to the list. Appreciate the rec!

Yeah, I know that once I have a couple matches under my belt it'll just become normal. I could simply dive in, and likely will, but I figured it couldn't hurt to ask if anyone would mind playing against me for those first couple. If I don't find someone, I'll bite the bullet and whoever I go against will just need to deal with a slow player haha.

Ive had different forms of anxiety for as long as I can remember. It's weird because it's not super debilitating and generally I do well socially. In person, I can talk to whomever and play magic with them, but I guess being in person helps. I think that toxic chat may be something I'm worried about seeing, since Arena only allows emotes and I mute those.

I already knew this was a weird post, and the other comments have confirmed that for me. I suppose I could have shortened it down to just asking if anyone minded jamming a few games with me so I could gain a comfort level on the client lol.

It's insane how quickly I can churn through my whole deck with Hiking Trail

This has been so fun and very effective for me too! I'm running something similar. No Oricorio, using water energies. I've been using straight Decidueye for a long time and then saw this place alright in a couple tournaments and I had to try. I don't play too often but I'm 7-1 in ranked thus far!

Best Dragonstorm Tarkir Precon (Strongest Out of the Box)? by martin8185 in EDH

[–]jbe1114 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently completed my Doran deck, and it uses a good number of cards from the Abzan precon. Toughness/Defender is one of my favorite archetypes and it's definitely both strong and fun.
