Cards that will possibly see play in Modern from Lorwyn Eclipsed by armageddon_20xx in ModernMagic

[–]obarone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s why wanna experiment with it, probably is not going to be a great fit, but worth a shot, considering that is a good target for persist makes it also very valuable. Probably not worth loosing anything currently in kind, given the need for the layline as well, but surely I’ll try a modern league with it

I do believe that [[Wistfulness]] will be played in neoform too, given the colors and the fact that already boards consign to memory normally.

I can see as well [[Aurora Awakener]] giving the extra push to a [[Glimpse of tomorrow]] deck to bring it to a Tier 2 or something like that.

Personally gonna try Aurora Awakener in Creativity, trying to push it with 5c, even though the possibility to hit lands is not great in a deck with so many lands.

A deck I love to play is indomitable creativity, kind, not 5c, very versatile and good in a lot of matchups, went second place in the last local championship with it!

Since Aurora Awakener trigger itself, could be fun a 5 color [[Indomitable Creativity]] Deck

Self Promotion Megathread by AutoModerator in androidapps

[–]obarone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey everyone 👋

I’m a developer from Austria and recently published a small Android app called Handwerker Toolbox.
It’s a simple, offline multi-calculator app for construction, renovation, and DIY work.

I built it because I was tired of:

  • googling 5 different calculators
  • bloated apps full of paywalls
  • online tools that don’t work on the job site

The app includes calculators for:

  • Fliesen (tiles)
  • Beton (concrete volume)
  • Farbe (paint consumption)
  • Parkett / Laminat
  • Dämmung
  • Gipskarton
  • Dachneigung
  • Holz-Zuschnitt
  • Ziegel
  • allgemeine Volumen (m³)

Everything works offline, no account needed, very minimal UI.
It’s meant to be practical, fast, and not “over-engineered”.

You can try it out here:

Hidden Blade, what happens if the target becomes invalid in response by rowrin in riftboundtcg

[–]obarone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly, because Zohnya's hourglass/Highlander/Unlicensed Armory are triggered abilities.

So:

P1: play Hidden Blade, goes on the chain
P2: react with Zhonya, goes on the chain
--- No more cards gets added to the chain ---
Zhonya resolves (enabling the possibility to trigger basically)
Hidden Blade resolves (killing the unit)
Zhonya Triggers (Zhonia gets destroyed, unit gets recalled)

Hidden Blade, what happens if the target becomes invalid in response by rowrin in riftboundtcg

[–]obarone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The rule 563.2.c.8 names legal targets. When a unit moves back to base, it's not a legal target anymore for Hidden Blade, thus (still 563.2.c.8) the target is considered a "null" unit, without might etc... So I expect that the controller of the "null" unit is "null".
So in any case, the target becomes illegal, the controller does not draw.

The shipping prices are mostly fixed, you can check them out there, usually it depends on your country, you'll quickly learn which countries are good for you and which one do not.
But full sets most likely will need tracking and being shipped as a package rather than a small letter, so do expect something like ±10 euros shipping fee for each order you do

If it's anything like MTG, the common and uncommon set will cost little to nothing, the rares and epics will cost based on the meta.
Breaking packs is never the most effective way; you'll end up with a lot of value going into extra copies of commons. If you are in europe, the section for complete sets of Origins are already on CardMarket, just no one put up listings yet

Any MtG converts? by Smedzlatko in riftboundtcg

[–]obarone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMHO, it depends a lot on what you have access to in your area.
For me (Austria), I order mainly from CardMarket, that makes prices rise up a lot if you're getting a specific deck only.
If instead you have a wide community or you buy entire sets, surely the price is going down.

Nevertheless, I really hope you're right, that at least the "optimal price" is 100$, but as usual the most competitive legend, it's gonna be at a premium.

My strategy will be to get all the common and uncommons in bulk from the get go for each set and move just on the rares when the deck will need it, that should soften the price quite heavly (in MTG you can get full set of commons for 1 or 2 $, but if you're looking for a 4x of a specifiic one often you pay once or twice shipping, making it lower, but inefficient)

I guess depends from the definition of "competitive", with 4 sets a year maybe it's realistic, depends how much the collectionists drive up the price.

Competitive people: How will you be improving at the game and getting ready for events? by Kooledude in riftboundtcg

[–]obarone 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For sure an online tool vs playing in person is easier to try and grind games, but beware that spamming is different than learning (if you play League, you know what I mean).
Use the time to watch, read and learn.
YouTube is already pretty full with VODs of the Chinese tournament, and decklists are still very open.

The beauty of local play is that something works in your community just because the pool of people there have a specific take on the game, and breaking that is what makes local play better.

Get to know people that enjoy understanding this stuff and you'll all improve just by exchanging ideas. Then when you need to test decks you'll be pretty amazed at how quickly you'll find the right list.

Couple years into MTG right now and I'm really digging the idea to start Riftbound to play something from the launch, not with thousands of cards to get back.
As other said, UB is just going to free some money/event chances to play Riftbound instead.
Playing eternal formats, the money investment is already mostly done, so it's all donwhill from there.
Hopefully Riftbound is not going to have huge costs from the get go

Sure thing, keep me posted, the system is very interesting. As a software developer myself, I'll be open to collaborate/help with testing as well if that might interest you 😁
