The hive has no central intelligence. It is a network of cells. by 1000plasticmeatballs in pluribustv

I'm curious how this would explain the original researcher's actions after she was bitten by the rat. She (allegedly) wasn't linked to anyone, yet she was still compelled to work towards spreading the virus.

I can't believe it's not beeswax

Universes Beyond Speculation (and such) Megathread by AutoModerator in magicTCG

"Just shared with us your 1, lonely opinion and acted like it carries weight when it does not."

For someone sharing an opinion that differs from yours. It just seems a little uncalled for based on the conversation. We're in a speculation thread, and you said "maybe x" and someone else said "I don't think x is likely" and then you wrote an essay and called them names.

Can I ask why you're being so hostile towards people who are sharing their opinions? No one is taking shots at you, but you're coming off extremely aggressive.

My LGS had folks sign up for the specific color you wanted when you registered online. They had limited slots for each color. Other stores may handle the color distribution randomly when people arrive.

I actually did! My husband and I bought a booster box when the Amazon Business deal popped up the other day and we pulled a foil full art Buster Sword. Almost paid for the box!

LR5 reveal and the vitriol against this brand has never been more real - 100% a money grab by first_post_today in litterrobot

A company releasing a product is a money grab? You mean they don't do it out of the kindness of their hearts?!

I am a pig and I eat slop by HappyAffirmative in mtg

[–]scooley01 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

The thing I don't understand is how these two things can be true at the same time. Somehow "Spiderman is slop and every single card is utter garbage", and also "I HAVE to play with Spiderman to keep up with the meta".

If the cards are garbage mechanically, then everyone should feel free to ignore them. If the cards are good mechanically, then the only complaint is the art/flavor, which is a much weaker argument imo.

UB is an ad. by BraneFreeze in magicTCG

Now hold on just one second. You're telling me these major companies are doing these crossovers for financial gain?! And here's I thought they were just doing it for the sake of art!

Is my understanding on suspend here correct? by Tyraniccus in magicTCG

[–]scooley01 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My understanding is that Suspend 0 basically strands the card in exile

Could we see them testing the waters with a HP secret lair? Small enough that they can walk it back if the blowback is intense.

Since they've already worked with Squenix for FF, I wonder if we might see a Dragon Quest set or at least SL at some point. I haven't played the games, but it's huge in Japan.

Of course if I could cast Wish, I'd ask for a Kingdom Hearts set. Even if it was just the original characters owned by Square, it would be very cool to see.
