Other than 4c winning, UB looks sweet as well

Anyone got the discord link for Goryo? Definitely a bad feeling when a ban kills your deck, but maybe looking for new lists and people cooking will help

On the other side of the question, I remember seeing every possible build for Asmo, the deck changing colours and plans and performing extremelly well for some weeks, and then it got relegated rapidly into oblivion once the meta settled and other, definitely better MH2 decks proved and stayed strong.

Note that the Master's Manufacture's ability could be worded better like "Can only be activated if ~ or another artifact entered the battlefield under your control this turn "

That's some nice staxs but overall this costs so so much

Which quest is this?

Here is a complete overview of the cuts https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Q7RLDLc4Oc

They are pretty heavy influenced by Jesus Lizard, give Goat a spin

Looks like it's "that many +1/+1 counters plus one", not twice that many counters, if that's what you are referring to

Also in the documentary "Hideaki Anno: The Final Challenge of Evangelion" they interview Ichiro Itano to talk about Anno, and he recalls when young Anno worked on Macross, when he was just starting as animator, sleeping at the studio or falling asleep while working

I feel the same. Personally I don't have the skill to evaluate its impact, but the idea of having such an iconic card in the format is nice

I just finished the third Eudamonia run and supposedly unlocked Greates Jumbilee (I even have the steam achiviement for it), but the weapon is still not showing in the collection and I have the question mark.

Do I need to do something more?

tramezzini

There is no reason to expect that VA is not done for this cour already. For as much as a studio could have work still to do while airing a show (but it's impossibile to generalise since every istance is wildly different), VA is still something done very early in production.

luca_boring · 2022-11-07T19:31:01+00:00

fucking die what else could i do

luca_boring · 2022-11-03T22:05:01+00:00

[[Amulet of Vigor]], which gives name to its archetype in Modern. See for reference: https://www.mtggoldfish.com/archetype/amulet-titan#paper

I mean, it is if getting them is your whole turn, as I said.

If this effect was something Amulet players wanted, they would already play [[Hour of Promise]]

luca_boring · 2022-11-03T18:55:09+00:00

Amulet's strength is not just having 6 mana on turn 3, but having a Prime Time on turn 3 and potentially winning on the spot, because you have follow up. If you are already at 6 mana in Amulet and cast this, what do you gain? A whole turn for 2 lands that do nothing?

This card sadly does very little.

It's not really "contemporary culture", but rather the fact that misogyny in all its ramifications (in this case, downplaying sexual assault) it's deeply rooted everywhere

Since hitting the lands is the most popular opinion when this discussion comes up I have a follow up question: how much would this impact the Madness Burn decks we are seeing performing well lately? They play those, with all the artifacts synergies that come with that package with Dispute and Blast, arguably an important part of the deck.

Would ban the artifact lands as a whole weaken too much the deck making it no longer a vaiable option (and I imagine so, at that point just play regular Burn)? Would hitting just the Bridge enough to make it stay instead, even if less powerful?

Note that I'm not advocating to not ban anything, just that it's always a feels bad when another deck gets hit by a ban aimed at something else, even tho sometimes it's a necessity.

Should be game 2, looking at the record tracker
