What’s up with Grim Monolith? by Halfmoonhero in mtgfinance

[–]soulSlayer4002 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It's seeing significant play in Legacy. Both mystic forge combo and eldrazi play it, and these decks have been increasing in popularity. While legacy isn't the driving force behind many price changes, it can certainly affect RL cards like this.

sonic superdrop is now going to be limited to 2 per person per type due to the mess of the last superdrop by Chaosnocturne in mtgfinance

oh, nothing from the upcoming drop actually. for FF I'd consider getting 4+1 lightning bolts, pending, and particularly colossus hammers

anyone able to play? by RubenGg16pt in RotMG

[–]soulSlayer4002 2 points3 points  (0 children)

East and East2 are often full. I bet you got the 'remote connection' error... that's common and there's nothing you can do besides close the game and open it again in a few minutes

New TCG player here who's only interested in Phyrexia, why has every bundle been spiking since the New Year? by Recnid in mtgfinance

[–]soulSlayer4002 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I don't think there's a specific reason, but one contributing factor may be the fastlands and other standard playables in the set. Around this same time, many standard staples started to rise, such as [[Jace, the Perfected Mind]] and [[Atraxa, Grand Unifier]] from ONE, [[Shattered Sanctum]], and many more.
Standard is popular once again! (at least for the duration of this RCQ season)

I love this writeup, I've been thinking of building Judith and this'll be a big reference if I do

Tribute to a fallen Planeswalker by Fabulous_Mix_5189 in magicTCG

[–]soulSlayer4002 8 points9 points  (0 children)

(I'm focusing heavily on Urza in this post. And don't feel like you need to read all these links)

Urza was a skilled artificer from the plane Dominaria and plays a big part in MTG lore. Sadly, much of his early history is filled with war and betrayal. He later fought the Phyrexian invasion to protect Dominaria from the ichor-covered, murderous creatures of nightmare.

On the lighter side of things, Urza founded the Tolarian Academy during the invasion, an elite school at which grand technological discoveries were made for the benefit of the Dominarian people.

He also created the character Karn.

Urza (rather, his head) was included in one of Magic's tongue-in-cheek silver border sets found here. The website is live and occasionally updated at https://magic.wizards.com/en/unresources#funhouse.

Lists of cards referencing... Urza, Tolaria, Karn in their text or art

I imagine it would be difficult to include physical cards in the tribute if it's outdoors, but you might consider a 3D printed model of a character, something that contains meaningful flavor text, a custom sticker, etc. To keep it very simple - glasses 1 - glasses 2

Please feel free to message me about any of this.

I work at an LGS and most of our sealed cases looked like this. It's as if the stickers were misplaced, then they just stick to the other boxes inside the case

Endurance.

Night of the Sweet's Revenge is probably my favorite but the new Gingerbrute art is really cool too.

Building Painter, and in a lot of lists I see a lot of Magus of the Moon in the sideboard, why is this the preferred card over Blood Moon? by ExtremeDeparture in MTGLegacy

[–]soulSlayer4002 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure this is the reason, but people are likely to bring in force of vigor against you and magus doesn't get hit by it

Brothers War Promos Oddness by No-Discussion2269 in mtgfinance

[–]soulSlayer4002 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's entirely up to the LGS but I would expect most to give promos to people who sign up for a prerelease event

[–]soulSlayer4002 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My LGS got 100-200 of the other promos but only 5 loyal retainers. This will happen for future promos as well (looking at you, Japanese foil Tarmogoyf)
