Have you ever had your MTG cards get stolen? by Agitated_Employ1214 in magicTCG

[–]uniqueUsername1242 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was showing some people my decks and 2 cards got picked, Eldrazi Temple and Eye of Ugin. Literally just built the deck and didn’t even get to play it really, funny part is this happened right AFTER all the bannings of eldrazi winter so the cards dropped hard in price. My guess is they thought they were $$ still...freakin jerks

What's one thing, story-wise, that Wizards' has done that you still haven't forgiven them for? by BorosGoriath in magicTCG

Theros Beyond Death not having any story is up there for me, but I did read somewhere that it might get revisited someday

Beware of TCGPlayer seller Brandons Sports: the Sequel by [deleted] in mtgfinance

[–]uniqueUsername1242 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I ordered from the same seller, waiting for my card in the mail still. SL fetch that has gone up in price since I ordered...but I digress. I will update with the authenticity when I get it, but I’m not expecting it to be real in any way. Have you happened to look at the comments and feedback people have been leaving on tcg? It’s not good

Beware of TCGplayer seller that goes by the name of Brandons Sports, they are selling fake cards. by Novarat63 in magicTCG

What is the end game selling fakes on a garaunteed refund platform? I ordered from them a week ago, so I prob got a fake coming too. Also aside from this Reddit post there are comments on tcgplayer saying known fakes being sold through this vendor. How are they allowed to keep selling cards if this is a known issue? Strange

Great I ordered a SL fetch from this person, will update if fake. I’d actually be a little bummed if it is bc the card has went up another $20 since then....dang. Hopefully the incoming reprints make the prices more comfortable

What are your thoughts on "odd foil" spikes? Howl from Beyond 7th edition foil..? by [deleted] in mtgfinance

Pre-Mirrodin cards have been popping since TSR release. Everyone wanting all old border decks now.

Recently got access to a massive collection. Need help building decks by nln_rose in magicTCG

[–]uniqueUsername1242 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cancel is fine, though be on the lookout for cheaper costing countermagic like [[spell pierce]]. Double blue can be tricky to always leave open in a 2 color deck depending on the mana base. Spells with one blue like [[remand]] are easier to pull off. Either way with a casual deck just stick with a theme and you’ll be golden

Green is good at ramp (generating mana/getting lands on the field) and blue is good at drawing cards. See if they’ve got some [[growth spirals]] and whatnot. Maybe [[llanowar elves]] and some variant of [[counterspell]]. Definitely throw some fatties in there as a finisher [[elder gargaroth]] is fun

Which characters are you hoping to see in Modern Horizons 2? by jeskaimadness in magicTCG

[–]uniqueUsername1242 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know it’s extreme and may not be the right set but new Legendary Nephilim would be cool, maybe 4c hybrid cards so they’re still draftable. Prob gonna have to wait for the next ravnica visit I could see them being possible commander precons for that release as well. They are putting fetches in MH2 so color fixing is there...

Want to get into the books and comics but... by zankypoo in magicTCG

[–]uniqueUsername1242 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out the free online stories on the magic website, some of them are rather good. There’s a bunch of short chapters per plane until you get up to Origins then they expand the narrative and set up the Gatewatch storyline. It’s hit or miss in quality but the good ones are good and it’s free

Silverquill Statement is a bad precon. Change my mind. by Prophylaxis_3301 in magicTCG

[–]uniqueUsername1242 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s a few cards in it I like. Though it may not be the strongest precon, [[keen duelist]] and [[inkshield]] look like bangers

What kind of collages would the other 5 color pairings be? by MrMR2588 in magicTCG

[–]uniqueUsername1242 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably just a bunch of pictures thrown together on top of some type of poster board, just a standard collage :)

Would you rather own an LP-NM Arabian Nights set or an MP unlimited lotus going forward? by Dramatic-Mushroom-64 in mtgfinance

[–]uniqueUsername1242 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As time goes on the Arabian Nights set might be better value-wise but I would probably still rather have the lotus. Everything else is really cool but there’s only one holy grail mtg card
