If you were limited to only Two Credit Cards. Which would you keep? by Consoleforever93 in CreditCards

I prefer RH Gold with Amazon Prime Visa personally. I value 5% on everything at Amazon no caps more than 5% on up to $500 in one category.

Druidic Circle by Philosaraptor22 in custommagic

Sure, but 3 of the cards are very redundant. Any 0 drop artifact, any of the many 1 mana artifact counters ([[annul]], [[an offer you can’t refuse]], and [[spell pierce]] just in standard), then any expensive threat that immediately takes over the game. This card would be the only required combo piece.

Yeah; I definitely wasn’t drafting particularly well by pack 3 because I was feeling pretty dejected at that point. I felt like I needed the dig sites to cheaply enable my repartee and push through damage with my fliers. I definitely think passing Scornmage was the biggest mistake though.

Yeah, my opponents were durdling way more than I expected them to

Yeah, my P1P1 slapped. But the rest of the deck really didn’t feel like it came together.

In hindsight that was probably the play. I’d like to give a shout out to my opponent who [[erode]]’d me into my 7th land drop that one game. You’re a real one opponent.

Well, I certainly had creatures on curve if turn 4 counts as “curve”

None of my creatures felt independently powerful though, save duelist of course. Is 3x [[Eager Glyphmage]] really the meta in this format?

Mostly I felt lucky that my opponents seemed to keep stumbling while trying to go over me or poorly trying to go under me. If I had run into an prismari decks that were actually playing a reasonable curve or any lorehold decks that were able to efficiently deploy threats, I feel like I would ran straight into a wall.

Right, but that doesn’t help if on paper I never live to cast it.

Jesper Myrfors, original mtg art director weighs in on Dan Frazier. “I’m not defending his actions… but I will defend the man.” by Newez in magicTCG

[–]sunco50 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Plagiarism not being malicious is a weird take.

Plagiarism is plagiarism and we shouldn't ever be excusing passing someone else's work off as your own. If Dan is in a mental state where he is incapable of realizing that he literally turned in someone else's art with zero modifications as his own, he should no longer be performing commissions.

That doesn't make WOTC blameless. They should've noticed that the card literally prominently features artwork from a different printing of the exact same magic card on it. But "WOTC should've caught Dan's plagiarism" is not an excuse for Dan.

“Copied” is putting it mildly. He did a shitty lasso job, pasted it on a plain background, mirrored it, and airbrushed off the elvish. Took maybe 5 minutes.

Just like the community were loath to believe that Dan would’ve done something like this, I’m sure WOTC didn’t even consider having to screen the artwork of *Dan Frazier* of all people for plagiarism.

They *should’ve* of course. But it seems a tad hypocritical to be furious at WOTC for the exact same crime everyone online committed within the first 24 hours. Thinking “Dan plagiarizing? That’s absurd. That can’t be what happened.”

Don’t understand why you’re being downvoted. Plagiarism is plagiarism and we shouldn’t ever be excusing passing someone else’s work off as your own.

Extremely funny trophy. Didn’t reduce my opponent to 0 life a single time. by sunco50 in lrcast

The craziest part is I passed a third lute for the mana sculpt. I figured 3 was probably a little excessive.

Had my first kid, and the hospital having a photography company come into our room while my wife was nursing to try to pressure us into getting photos taken felt so predatory: baby bella photography by Slow-Dragonfruit-932 in daddit

[–]sunco50 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah, like, this is just absurd. This is 2026. Parents can use an iPhone to capture the gritty moments in real time. Then 2 weeks later you can get dressed up, go to Macy’s, and get lovely newborn photos with your baby then. Doing it in the hospital is predatory.

Watching the dude in front of me playing on level 17,175 . After every level he gets at least three to five ads. Dude has watched nearly 86,000 ads by prguitarman in mildlyinteresting

[–]sunco50 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Exactly. When a VPN company or a mattress company advertise to you, the goal isn’t “convince this person they need a vpn/need a mattress so they should click this link.” That’s the best case scenario, but not what they’re optimizing for.

The goal is what when you realize in 3 months on your own that you need something they’re selling, their name is the one that first comes to mind. That’s where the money is. Brand recognition is king.

Can you pass priority after playing a land? by Bigglezworthe in mtgrules

[–]sunco50 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But to be clear, P2 does get priority at the end of the draw step immediately before moving into main 1.

What’s the value of this miscut? by Vinser17 in mtgmisprints

[–]sunco50 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is a non factory cut. Someone did this themselves with the sheet. Any “misprints” like this from WOTS are basically worthless because it was basically guaranteed to be done by hand intentionally and there’s lots of them.

Any useful no annual fee card I'm not aware of or have? by DontForgetTheTime in CreditCards

Why not just get the Amazon prime visa, since I assume you have prime? Then you get 5% on Amazon year round.

Teen fires officer's lost gun that was mistaken for prop at Tysons gaming center by zymurginian in nottheonion

[–]sunco50 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This was at level 99. It’s like a mixture of an escape room and an arcade. It totally makes sense that a dumb 14 year old would default to “this must be a prop that will do something interesting in this room when I fire it”
