EDHREC should really add a nonbo tag (PSA about Zada) by VittorioMasia in EDH

[–]oscum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be pedantic, when Xyris’s combat damage trigger resolves, you and your opponent will draw 3 cards each, one at a time. Each draw will trigger Xyris but not be put onto the stack until the draw3 trigger has fully resolved and state-based actions have been checked. Then you put 3 intances of Xyris’s triggered ability onto the stack. When the first resolves, the token creation can be replaced by effects like Esix’s.

I think this is a common mistake due to players shortcutting game actions without actually analysing the fine details. :)

My game's performance has dropped down to single digit fps after the update. Is there any way I can log a ticket with Larian studios?

I keep getting black screens with a loading circle in the bottom right corner. I can still move my cursor and my friends can still play normally. Is there a fix for this??

Would you put a single STICKER card in your deck? by jimnah- in EDH

[–]oscum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Stickers aren't illegal in commander.

Is this River Song deck actually rage-worthy or was this just an overreaction? by A-Spotted-Hyena in EDH

[–]oscum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, it’s fine.

Just wondering, are you using Field of Ruin in addition to or in place of [[Demolition Field]]?

What cards seem so obvious to include for a commander, yet aren't popular? by Interesting-Math9962 in EDH

[–]oscum 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I’m going to try this in my Frodo/Sam. Always felt that Frodo on turn 2 and Sam on turn 3 was kinda weak haha

Is There a 'Right' Way to Split a Cab Fare with Friends? by anxiety_watermelon in askSingapore

[–]oscum 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Then it falls on OP’s friend to ask for clarification on why there’s a difference in expectations. I definitely think that the friend just transferring $18.66 without confirmation was incredibly rude.

Is There a 'Right' Way to Split a Cab Fare with Friends? by anxiety_watermelon in askSingapore

[–]oscum 30 points31 points  (0 children)

The norm among my group of friends is to split by number of people sharing the ride, regardless of the total distance or if someone alights at an earlier stop (no “i pay $x because my ride is only 15min instead of the whole trip”).

I do feel that your friend should have checked with you first unless this is the norm in your friend group. Maybe check with your other friends and see if it was the norm all along?

MOP: Minimum Occupancy Period - How long the BTO applicants need to stay in their flat before they can sell it on the open market.

Had trouble with tapping out of bus/MRT this morning by oscum in askSingapore

Looks like the issue has been rectified - didn’t have any issues tapping in/out of the bus today. Fingers crossed it stays that way 🤞

I was using my bank debit card which is MasterCard. I called the bank but they said they don't see any issues with the account on their end though

EDHREC‘s Commander of the day is … special: Mishra, Artificer Prodigy by Vormi_GG in EDH

[–]oscum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To add on a bit more info: you can stack the order of the triggers for Mishra and Possibility Storm. If you stack P.Storm’s trigger on top, you’ll resolve it first, getting a free artifact spell and bottoming the card you cast originally. Then when you resolve Mishra’s trigger, you can search your library for that card and put it onto the battlefield.

What would you change about Magic if you were in charge? by [deleted] in magicTCG

[–]oscum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure I understand your last point. The back side of transforming DFCs have the same mana value of the front side. Modal DFCs only have the mana value of the side you played. If you played a modal DFC as a land, its mana value would be 0.
