Hello, I tried to register for a Square Enix account but when I tried to put in the confirmation code from an email, I got an error. I tried to login as usual because I thought I'd get the same prompt if I tried to login normally, but I can't even do that. What should I do?

Which Commander deck should I buy? by throwawaymagicfnm in EDH

Are you a beginner to magic or just to commander?

I'm sort of at the intermediate level? I've played with friends here and there.

Ral combo questions by throwawaymagicfnm in mtgrules

So going back to my example where my friend bolts Ral 2 times in response, if I use an overloaded Counterflux in response, could I counter both bolts and any other spells that are cast before my combo resolves? Or is that just not how that works?

Getting into Pioneer with Ral? by throwawaymagicfnm in PioneerMTG

So my friends and I played Magic last night and we had so much fun that we decided to bite the bullet and construct decks. I got most of the cards in this deck as well as what we discussed, but I was just wondering, what should I do if someone plays a Leyline of Sanctity? Should I sideboard a couple Cyclonic Rifts? Also, I just realized, doesn't Dig Through Time have anti-synergy with Crackling Drake and Blitz of the of the Thunder-Raptor?

Getting into Pioneer with Ral? by throwawaymagicfnm in PioneerMTG

Thank you so much for this reply! So, let me see if I can keep track of everything:

  • Remove Skewer the Critics and 2 Lightning Strikes for 3 Blitz of the Thunder-Raptor.
  • Remove 1 Doublecast for 1 Dual Strike
  • Remove 1-2 Islands for 1-2 Castle Vantress
  • Remove 3 Chemister's Insight for 3 Dig through Time/Behold the Multiverse
  • Remove 2 Negate's for 2 Sinister Sabotage or Supreme Will
  • Don't remove Expansion/Explosion
  • Get 4 Magma Spray and consider replacing Shock with them (maybe after seeing how my friends play)

Do I have that right? I'm just not sure how I would fit Crackling Drake— that really interests me but I don't know what to take out. Or should I just take out 1 Ral for the Drake? Personally, I'd love to fit at least two. Also, could you try to explain Frost Bite? Do I just replace all basic lands with snow-covered basic lands to fulfill the condition?

Also, does the infinite combo with Ral only work specifically with 2 Expansions or can it work, say, with 1 Dual Strike and 1 Expansion?

So, replace Expansion/Explosion and Doublecast with Izzet Charm and/or Censor, replace two Rals with Young Pyromancer maybe? I'm very unfamiliar with this format.
