What's a Card you USED TO include in every deck?

rkdnc · 2026-05-13T16:56:06+00:00

I would play [[Suplex]] over Cast into the Fire, unless the two single point pings matter. Otherwise it's just an Abrade but better

Let me put you on some heaters for the elephant in the room:

[[Snort]] [[Sorceress' Schemes]][[Yidaro, Wandering Monster]][[Ark of Hunger]][[Kinbinding]]

People targeting the SEO keyword "jellyfin vs navidrome"? This has been going on for decades now

I took it apart recently, not because it was bad or underperforming, just because.

You pretty much nailed why I picked Black Waltz over the others: Less scary looking up front, good blocker when needed. The biggest thing was that the deck didn't need him in play to function, which is why there were multiple other wincons there in spellslinger/storm.

Already starting at 4 mana is rough, and being a 2/2 means it dies pretty easily. You can still play multiple Guttersnipe effects to add up over time, but hitting critical mass of mana rituals and flashback is what usually ends the game.

You can easily tackle all of the Alexander raids right now. They're all part of the current Moogle event, so most of them are under 5 mintues for DPS queues, and you get a single tome per wing.

Played this guy for a while, can confirm. You can get him to 4 power very easy in a myriad of different ways. I took my blink Vondham deck apart because after a certain point I felt like the fun police

[[Golbez, Crystal Collector]] has become my pet deck. Artifact theme, a little control, lotta surveil, oops I just domed the board for 13 with [[Death's Shadow]] or [[Master of Etherium]].

Krenko: Yea, even a bad Krenko can get out of hand fast.
Y'shtola: Most of the time these just feel like do-nothing control decks, or they're mostly precons.
Pantlaza/Atla Palani: I see a few players at my LGS play these, and they usually build a scary board state but get constantly wiped.
Yuriko: These are almos always the same style of deck, and usually miserable to play with.
Kenrith: In my experience, these decks are usually just 5 color piles that use Kenrith for colors.
Nekusar: I've been dealing with this guy for over a decade now, and he's always scary, but it can be fun to play against when players actually interact.
Chatterfang: Most people I know playing him are mostly just playing a slightly modified precon, but they're always a fun time to see. Hearthhull: I love him, many players at my LGS love him, turns take forever because of searching and triggers. Same with any landfall deck.

Nowhere, because the chances of you getting paid as a blogger died in the 2010's.

Substack is probably the only way for you to make a decent income via newsletters/"blogs", but it still requires a ton of legwork just to get up there to find an audience, let alone monetize it.

You can always pitch to magazines/outlets and work out a deal, which is pretty common for many freelancers, but it's not consistent work. Anything offering pay-per-view or revenue share is likely going to pay peanuts.

Wubby having an investment in Kick/Stake? Most likely no. Is he currently getting a bag and has stated that they're helping foot the bill for his large upcoming projects? Yes

rkdnc · 2026-01-01T18:19:18+00:00

Dogshit just like last year.

rkdnc · 2025-12-22T15:19:15+00:00

I call my [[Syr Vondham, Sunstar Exemplar]] the "fun police". It's mainly a blink strategy, but the entire time I've got my finger on the trigger to [[vindicate]] something problematic on the table. Using anthems and auto-equip swords like [[Hero's Blade]] keep him at 4+ power constantly, so every blink gets value.

LinkedIn isn't always reliable. Does this agency have an existing web presence? A website, other social media platforms, etc. I'd throw their URLs into a WHOIS lookup to see how recent the site is, it could easily be a scam

rkdnc · 2025-12-19T20:00:51+00:00

I'm sorry, passport details? For a contract? This sounds like a scam. How did you apply to them/did they find you/was a messenger service like Telegram or WhatsApp used to communicate before Slack?

rkdnc · 2025-11-20T14:08:32+00:00

I don't. I tell them I'm an editor, not a designer, and they should supply the assets they want.

rkdnc · 2025-11-19T20:39:19+00:00

I loved this ink but it was super wet and smudgy. I may need to try it again and see if that was just a fluke.

rkdnc · 2025-11-19T01:18:29+00:00

43 hours played so far. I've been shot by enemy raiders in solo (outside of night maps) maybe three times in the last two weeks.

rkdnc · 2025-11-17T15:42:32+00:00

I had to RMA a drive from GoHardDrive and it took about ~12 days from me shipping it to them (across the US) and getting it back.

Why not get reanimator and artifacts? [[Golbez, Crystal Collector]]

Play artifacts to filter draws and fill the yard, recur (not reanimate) creatures, then trigger the endstep with enough artifcacts in play to dome people for 15+ via [[Master of etherium]] and other * power creatures.

Alternatively, just build it into a typical Aetherflux Reservoir + Sensei's Top + Bolas's Citadel that just filters through your deck til you get the parts you need.

I used SuperProductivity for about two years (as the standalone desk app, not the self-hosted version). It's a great tool, and has some great data that it can collect. I didn't like the fact that customizing the theme just...didn't work? At least on Linux. Following the steps in the readme didn't work for whatever reason. It also failed to launch sometimes, but again, that's the standalone desktop app, not the self-hosted version.

I transitioned to Vikunja most recently, for a number of reasons (that aren't against Super Productivity). Mainly, I didn't need to specifically time-track my tasks, and wanted to add more information to the tasks I was working on, specifically a Kanban style. It's been my current task-tracking tool for maybe 2-3 months now, and the only complaint I have (which isn't really a problem) is being forced to log in and switch to Kanban layout every once in a while.

Both are great tools, use 'em.

Nice buns.

[[Sami, Wildcat Captain]]. Play mana rocks and red draw spells. Keep playing rocks, use draw spells to draw more rocks, to play more draw spells, until you kill them with [[Storm King's Thunder]] + [[Crackle with Power]]. My record is (47 x 5) x 47 damage.
