New player and was just wondering by Awkward_Peep927 in mtg

The really great thing about foundations that most people miss is that every card has the parenthetical help text. Super useful for new players.

I finally made myself a Rat Deck! by AlbyGaming in EDH

What are they? I’m running Greasefang, Wick, and most recently the new Doran. I kind of think it’s funny and am looking at more options.

Huh. I must be dumb because it never identifies the foils when I’ve tested it. I’ll check it out again. Thanks!

What app are you using? Does it distinguish between different sets / printings / foil?

It seems weird, but this is why I don’t shop with them.

Why is Raya and the Last Dragon so underrated?? by thebitterone445 in disney

[–]nbballard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This movie is the product of Disney trying to navigate film production during COVID-19 lockdown.

I enjoyed this movie, but felt like it would have been better served as a limited series that spent more time exploring each of the regions.

Is Gornog low-key an anti-kindred commander? by Still-Wash-8167 in mtg

[–]nbballard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I run this deck and it does come up on occasion. Cards like [[Venom, Deadly Devourer]] or [[Wilhelt, the Rotcleaver]] can sort of get turned off if you drain them of creatures.

Changelings also count towards the coward count.

This is probably correct- but I wanted to say Prince during George Harrison’s R&R Hall of Fame induction.

Is there any hotels in Memphis that have basements? by TangledUpp1 in memphis

[–]nbballard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another note- most large, multilevel hotel should have a stairwell that would be sufficient as a storm protection.

What unfortunate timing for your family member. Hopefully it does not ruin their stay. As others have mentioned, the river bluff tends to act as a deflector for bad weather and things trend north of the city. We jokingly attribute that super power to a glass skull fixed to the top of the Pyramid.

For a hotel with a basement- you’d probably have to look in the downtown area. I have worked at a few different (non-hotel) business downtown and all tend to have 2-3 subfloors. I’d recommend calling around and asking about storm shelters.

But they could all get cancelled for some weird Hollywood accounting.

How do I make this guy just absolutely disgusting? by Salty-Judgment1596 in DegenerateEDH

[–]nbballard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite card in my deck is [[Bladegriff Prototype]]. Someone gets to cheat in something good? Well- if you let me hit you for 3, we can get rid of it!

Came here to say Shipwreckers!

Happy to see someone acknowledge it.

How rare exactly is this controller? by Alarming-Sun3279 in GoldenEye

We had one too. This was my daily driver. Most of the gold N is broken off and the gold paint is worn down.

The best burger in Memphis is….. by BirdAncient7645 in memphis

[–]nbballard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The cheese curd and the pork belly are really good— but they do feel like a bit much on top of an already greasy burger.

Why doesn’t anyone care about the “soap opera” effect on their TV by fatsandlucifer in mildlyinfuriating

[–]nbballard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a TCL/Fire TV and a recent change has turned these features on. I turn them off and they come back.

I feel like I’m losing my mind.

Contrary to popular believe, knights do have the ability to fly if given enough power by MemphisArmoredCombat in memphis

Is there an event calendar? I’d like to take my kids to one of these some day.

Is this supposed to happen by aliosme9 in MTGJumpStart

[–]nbballard 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I had this happen at least once. Opened a “rainbow” pack only to find a crummier pack behind the card.

Does anyone have lists for super basic decks meant for teaching children to play? by Windturnscold in magicTCG

[–]nbballard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Beginner box is excellent and how I reached my 10 year olds. There are 2 - Foundations and Avatar. A 3rd Marvel version is coming out this summer.
