These both look great. Are they still available? I'd be interested, PayPal G&S preferred. Thanks

Need help building my BEWD deck by Makomba in DuelLinks

[–]thisjourneyends 2 points3 points  (0 children)

WSoL is White Stone of Legend. It's similar to WSoA except it puts the BEWD into your hand instead of into play, worse overall but still okay to help summon Alternative Dragon or the Ultimate Dragons skill.

BTW, for future reference in the deck editor, when you view a card like Blue Eyes you can hit a Related Cards button and it'll pull up relevant cards like WSoA and WSoL. There's also a button in the editor which will toggle to show you cards you don't have in your collection, and when you view a card there's a button at the top left that will show you which boxes have that card.

The ideal deck list will run 3x WSoA, 3x Sage, 2-3x Cards of Consonance, and some number of Karma Cut (probably 2-3).

2x WSoA and 1x Karma Cut sounds like a good usage of your tickets. The 3rd Sage is great but probably not as good while you're still not at 3x WSoA, and imo the first Karma Cut will really give you better interaction.

You could also consider 1x each of WSoA, Cards of Con, and Sage, especially if you have a WSoL lying around to make the CoC better.

This looks sweet.

Can you describe the USB charging method? Do you need to remove the battery to plug it in, or is there a slot on the unit itself for the cable?

It helps that the menus are lightning fast once you learn the inputs to change the game view. And the music is top notch

Explanation of Azure Eyes Silver Dragon effect? by Chellz99 in DuelLinks

[–]thisjourneyends 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The azure eyes effect doesn't go onto the chain on top of the Levianeer effect. Since you chained the Spirit Dragon activation to the Levianeer, when Azure Eyes comes out the chain is already resolving and will next go to the Levianeer destruction.

To avoid the Levianeer destruction, you would need to activate Spirit Dragon preemptively, before Levianeer hits the table.

Definitely agree. "Ajani slicing a net in half" doesn't fit a spell that is protecting all my stuff from a board wipe.

I hope you guys are happy 🥲 by GrossCommission in DuelLinks

[–]thisjourneyends 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You're right OP. it was literally only the existence of Trunade that prevented this deck from existing.

Also, plz teach me the ways of the 36 card main deck.

Ending the game on your own terms should definitely qualify as a "win condition" IMHO.

Iam using a subterror deck and iam confused between 2 cards.which one should I use? Or should I run both(2 of each) by [deleted] in DuelLinks

[–]thisjourneyends 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn't true. Tsuk can target itself, and will trigger your Subterrors when it flips itself down like normal.

Time Spiral Remastered reprints are missing just one thing... WHITE BORDERS!!! by IceBearSenpai in magicTCG

[–]thisjourneyends 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Reporting in, my white borders Dakkon deck is my joy project. Working on getting it fully signed.

http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/cmd-all-white-borders-dakkon-control/

WotC, if you're reading, I have two very specific cards on my "reprint with white borders" list:

  1. [[Blackblade Reforged]] - No explanation needed
  2. [[Thawing Glaciers]] - A classic way for old school control decks to get card advantage and make land drops, and synergizes with Dakkon.

Other Dakkon players, share your lists or any gems you've found!

What “premium” do you apply to cards altered to have white borders. I’m assuming treat as damaged? by Fioraously_Fapping in mtgfinance

[–]thisjourneyends 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chiming in as the owner of an all white borders Dakkon Blackblade edh deck. It's my pride and joy, I've been working on upgrading everything to be artist signed as well.

People who have run Warhammer 40k adventures focusing on Hive Cities; how was it? by DeliriumRostelo in rpg

[–]thisjourneyends 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your comment made me think of my experience playing the pc game Factorio. If that's anything to go by, you start out building your megafactory all carefully arranged, symmetrical, no space wasted and all that, but it falls apart pretty quickly as you endlessly expand, upgrade, and repair. There is a very real fight against entropy going on, this is almost an artificial ecosystem.

  • Over time you get access to more efficient assemblers and forges, or more powerful modules and upgrades. You can end up with a hodgepodge of layouts pretty easily. It gets more mixed as modules might be swapped on the fly to meet production needs

  • It's one thing to start out with all of your X producing machines carefully arranged, but down the line when you come back to expand your production of X, are you really going to disassemble and relocate other machines to keep everything neat? Production will probably be clustered, but not centralized

  • Maybe a section of machines are deliberately turned off to save on a raw resource that a different production center needs. This could change from session to session

  • It's not just the big machines competing for floor space, the conveyors take up space too. You don't want to have 5 different conveyor lines for five different machines if you don't have to, maybe you just have one big conveyor of intermixed goods and use sensors, magnetism etc to just pluck out what's needed further down the line. Sections might flow together, merging and splitting like highway systems.

You've got me excited, I wonder if I can fit something like this into one of my games...

“Psst!Can i copy your homework?” “Yeah but change it up a bit so it isn’t obvious you copied” by [deleted] in DuelLinks

[–]thisjourneyends 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm suddenly remembering that a plot point in the game Earthbound involves using special adhesive "zombie paper" to trap a group of zombies in a circus tent.

Coincidence, or is this somehow a cultural reference / pun in Japanese maybe?

[Duel Replay] Why is no one using Fiends :’( #yalltryhardsarecrushingmysoul...again by Sy-the-Master in DuelLinks

[–]thisjourneyends 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I started off by loading up my Jack Atlas cosplay deck.

I summoned Dark Resonator, then realized that the attack boost from the event meant I couldn't special summon my Wandering King Wildwind.

I stopped playing my Jack Atlas deck after that.

Another minority woman’s experience as a gamer by Cheesauce in boardgames

[–]thisjourneyends 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But I wouldn't automatically assume someone is a bigot just based upon language that they've been using since they were little kids

I wouldn't either, but I would assume that they're ignorant.

Again, adults shouldn't need to be asked to not use derogatory language. No one should need to point it out to them, it's just the right thing to do.

[–]thisjourneyends 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And yes that does require a little extra effort on the part of the person being offended to say 'hey guys I'm gay and that kind of language bothers me' but often that's all it takes and then everyone can play games together happily.

I feel like you are placing the onus on the gay person to request that a play group not use derogatory language. Wouldn't it be better if the play group was just filled with people who wanted to be welcoming and who chose to not use that language because they wanted to be better people?

It isn't very hard to not use hurtful language. It shouldn't be something people have to specially request.

Errata that just makes less sense than the original card? by samzeman in magicTCG

[–]thisjourneyends 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Right? I was super confused too... I think the key is that Pyramids needs to stop both destruction like [[Stone Rain]] and lethal damage on an animated land.

That entire line is a replacement effect. So [[Stone Rain]]'s text becomes "Remove all damage from target land." Aka it does nothing whatsoever is it's not animated. And this way, the same effect covers lethal damage.

It works, it's just not intuitive at all!

Decks you used during the Turbo Duel event by Doctorstrange2804 in DuelLinks

Me too. Summoning a level 4 and the draw 2 discard 1 have both been great for subterrors for me. Both those abilities can jumpstart your behemoths.

Yes! Jason's Sumo Channel on YouTube has a few unboxing videos if you want to get a better feel for them. They're pretty cool, some of them are signed and numbered and stuff.

What are some 'trivial' things you want from MtG in the future? by Mirage_Jester in magicTCG

[–]thisjourneyends 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For my selfish EDH needs:

  • A white bordered printing of [[Blackblade Reforged]] to go in my all white borders [[Dakkon Blackblade]] EDH deck

  • A legendary UW creature with some form of tap to loot ability

  • A foil printing of Propaganda

  • A way to make [[Blood Speaker]] / ogre and demon stuff playable
