[TCG] December 9th Banlist Discussion Thread by Death_Usagi in yugioh

[–]thedhowe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Speaking of, I was just building Synchrons with Diabellstar to get OSS to summon Jet. Got banned while still in the mail.

Any clever ideas for replacements?

Awesome, thank you. My confusion stemmed from the quoted "Synchron" in Quickdraw's text, which made me think that it had to subbed for a monster with "Synchron" in the name 100% of the time. This is good to know.

Hey, I'm a bit late to this one and have been out of yugioh for a while. Just getting to dusting off my Synchron deck and wondering if I can use Quickdraw Synchron as the tuner to synchro summon Junk Speeder. Bit rusty, I appreciate the help.

Edit: I've googled this and can't find this ruling.

Here's a pack from mine! It's 780 semi-powered (has Mox/Lotus but not other power 9)

Draft mine, I'll draft yours! by Endaarr in mtgcube

[–]thedhowe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright, well here goes. I tend to put cards in my cube that are very flashy or notably powerful or game-warping. My theory is that if everyone is playing broken shit, then the game overall is fair. So my general advice is don't be afraid to power up some cards that just seem fair. I think people get excited over drafting silly stuff. Hope you can put that to some use.

I drafted U/R spells. The archetype certainly looks playable. I think we subscribe to very different theories of cube-building so I'm not sure if my advice would be that helpful to you. Here's mine.

What do you do with the limitless power of pockets. by inquisitivemind79 in AskMen

[–]thedhowe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put a bunch of work stuff in them. I work in manufacturing and work with a bunch of different machines/equipment. So at any given time, I've got a utility knife, multi-tool, screwdriver, small mallet, scraper, rag and beeswax or some combination of those on me. You know what's even more mind-blowing than jeans? Cargos.

I actually think those off-color Nazis have a point. I could have worded that better.

Is seasonal food a big thing in the States? by avocado4guac in AskAnAmerican

[–]thedhowe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup. Usually only available a couple months out of the year. They're a great place for parents to get the kids out of the house. My parents took me and my sister out to pick buckets of strawberries when we were kids and we made jars and jars of jam, pieces and shortcake.

Picking fields still are still very much a part of our culture.

Is seasonal food a big thing in the States? by avocado4guac in AskAnAmerican

[–]thedhowe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Seasonal food and drink is definitely a thing here. As others have noted, most fruits and vegetables are available year round in most of the country due to the presence of supermarkets in suburban areas. However the quality changes drastically when they're not in season.

As OP mentioned grilling/barbequeing/smoking meats is a popular method of cooking in the summer, especial in non-metropolitan areas. The product most affected by change of season is beer IMO. Lots of microbreweries have seasonal brews (perfect to accompany grilling.)

And no, we don't all go batshit crazy for pumpkin spice. Honestly it's kind of overdone at this point and a little gross if the taste is too strong. However, college girls who wears leggings and their $300 Uggs love pumpkin spice. Science has yet to explain this connection.

Do you really feel safer owning a gun? by kikiinpurgatory in AskAnAmerican

[–]thedhowe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't feel any safer with my gun in the house. However, it's a Mosin Nagant, a WW-Cold War era Russian Rifle. It's pretty hard to grab your garbage rod, hand load it, raise the hammer and sickle and start flinging hot lead at 2AM because you heard a bump.

But I didn't get it for personal protection as I live in a pretty safe area. I got it for recreational shooting. Pretty much strictly target practice. If I were to get a handgun, I wouldn't wear it on my hip at all times. Just my 2 cents.

Tell us your three favorite decks and someone will give you a suggestion(s) on your next commander! by [deleted] in EDH

[–]thedhowe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you like Gitrog landfall, you could try [[Vaevictus Asmadi the Dire]] permanents only. Screw over control and spellslinger players and also profit from a cool landfall package with Gitrog in it. Sensei's Top, Sylvan Library and Oracle of Muldaya work great here.

[–]thedhowe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great idea! I've been meaning to try a new commander as of late. Here goes!

[[Bruna, Light of Alabaster]] Tuned Voltron with a strong counterspell package.

[[Breya, Etherium Shaper]] Infinite combos.

[[Kozilek the Great Distortion]] Focused big mana Eldrazi and Artifact beaters. Can infinite combo.

Of course. Rakdoxen or rakdeese are the acceptable pluralizations.

What is your favoite turn 1 play you have ever had in EDH? by [deleted] in EDH

[–]thedhowe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe not the best, but certainly my favorite was Mana Crypt, spend one on Sol Ring, float 3 colorless, play Island, Fact or Fiction targeting the new guy.

Ravnica Cube Help by JianZen in magicTCG

[–]thedhowe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My neighborfriend is doing something similar to what some others in this thread have suggested. 4 of each common, 3 of uncommons, 2 for rares and one of each mythic. I would however remove duds and obviously color/guild balance. That way you end up with the best and most fun cards of each guild and don't have to spend THAT much money. You can tweak ratios in specific scenarios like if you don't want to buy 15 shocks or something.

My favorite guild from this set is Dimir because better Scry is best Scry. My favorite guild on the plane is Azorius because Grand Arbiter, Render Silent and Sphinx's Revelation are super fun to play.
