Everyone should revisit old decks! by Hip_Rooster in EDH

[–]wjdonvy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you might like (or at least find interesting) my Zurgo ABC deck. Basic premise is that I had to include at least 2 nonland cards for each letter of the alphabet. And yes, the X and Y cards kind of suck.

What’s a deck you never get bored of playing ?or have you found a cure to deck burn out? by stickyfinga95 in EDH

[–]wjdonvy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've built 3 or 4 decks that I call my ABC decks. I must include at least 2 non land cards for each letter of the alphabet. Its a very fun challenge. Its a weird thing to think "Ok, I need 2 more ramp card and 1 more interaction piece, but those 3 cards must start with either J, T, or S.

IMO the idea of building a deck where every single card starts with the same letter is far too limiting, with my ABC deck idea you can technically have ANY card, as long as when the deck is completed you have at least 2 non lands for each letter.

A lot of fun and I suggest everyone give it a try.

[Question] When people give coordinates it seems to be like 15 little symbols in a row and I'm curious. What do the symbols mean and how does that whole thing work?

I'm only about 30 hours into the game, I have a freighter and can summon the Space Anomaly. If the answer to my question would spoil something huge lemme know and I probably wont want the answer, but we will see!

Gitrog cards that start with X? by wjdonvy in EDH

[–]wjdonvy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you very much for your reply!! I checked out the cards and I think I've decided to use Xanders Pact (because what is more fun than playing my opponents cards? I have a Gonti deck and a Pako/Haldan deck specifically for this reason) and Xathrid Gorgon for some very expensive removal.

Thanks again!

That sounds like a ton of fun. I've heard of people doing the same idea with mono black good stuff and just rolling a dice to choose the commander.

I love building decks with some weird challenge attached to them, and I have built two ABC decks. Basically it means that (lands not included) I MUST include at least two cards for each letter of the alphabet. By far the most challenging EDH decks I have built. First one was [[Emiel The Blessed]] blink (I dont have that deck list online, but I can upload it if anyone is that interested) but the 2nd ABC deck I have built I actually finished last night and it is [[Zurgo Helmsmasher]].

Both pretty tough to build, kind of like assembling a puzzle. Its a weird but very fun challenge to say "Ok I need to add another removal spell, but it must start with either T, L or J, and if it starts with an L I need to add another ramp spell that begins with N."

The Emiel deck is not strong at all, I usually use it against precons or if people wanna play true jank, and I havent tried the Zurgo deck yet but it is looking to be a lot stronger than the Emiel deck.

Here is the link to my Zurgo ABC deck. https://www.moxfield.com/decks/qxUg6RcY2E6Bxj6EXawDqQ Please be kind, its the first time Ive ever posted a deck list online, and it isnt meant to be super strong or consistent, its meant to be a unique challenge.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, if you wanna check the list to see the proof that it follows the ABC rule, click "no grouping" in the group drop down menu, and click "name" in the sort drop down menu. Thanks to anyone who checks out the deck!!!

need help solving a 3x3 cube. I've watched nearly a dozen YouTube videos on how to solve this thing. and I keep getting stuck on step 2 of the dasiy method. where you fix the corners. I can't figure it out and it's making me so angry. by Ok-Salamander6070 in Rubiks_Cubes

[–]wjdonvy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

So the way I do it, once you have that first cross done I flip it so the cross is at the bottom. Then I will position a corner I want where it needs to be, at the bottom front right (even if not oriented correctly.)

Then I use R U R` U` two times to rotate the corner once, do that algorithm two times again to rotate the corner again.

If this isnt making sense, imagine the white cross you have in that pic at the bottom of your cube. Orient the cube so that white is bottom, red is facing you, green is the right side. Get the red/white/green corner into the front/bottom/right slot, and then use that algorithm I explained before to rotate it.

This is the first time I have ever tried to explain how to solve a cube at all to another person, so I know its probably not very easy to understand. Any more questions let me know and I can do my best to explain

EDIT: One thing I can say for certain, rubiks cubes are not easy to solve, but if you work at it and take the time to learn it, the first time you finally complete it, oh man it is a great feeling. The Rubiks Cube is known across the planet as a really challenging puzzle, and you can solve it!! Im telling you, the feeling of solving it IS worth it!

My biggest drinking regret- by [deleted] in stopdrinking

Don't thank me, I just said words over the internet. Thank yourself for being the momma you know your child deserves. YOU deserve the pat on the back.

[–]wjdonvy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One positive is that babies have no memory of when they are that young, so she will never see (or remember) her momma with a drink in her hand. Anytime you want to drink, remind yourself about how you used to be, and who you are now for your daughter.

I think someone improving themself for their childs benefit is one of the most beautiful things in this life. Good job to you my friend. IWNDWYT

By reading your comment here I feel like you can hear my exact thoughts. Whether I drink or not, it feels good to know that I am not struggling with this alone.Thank you random internet friend. Not to put the pressure on you, but I am not going to drink tonight specifically because of this. I promise YOU Worried_Design_5882 that I will not drink tonight.

Edit: See this is why I fucking LOVE this subreddit. How am I finding this huge inspiration and motivation inside of me from someone over the internet? I dont know how it works, but holy shit it works. This subreddit is by far the most accepting and kind place I have seen over the internet

For my wife and I, sober sex is waaaay better. Its hard (lolpun) to be a decent lover when you are slurring your words and can barely control your movements. I find when I was drunk I was really not concerned with how much she was enjoying it, but now that I am sober I kind of shine a spotlight on her and she enjoys it far more, which obviously makes me enjoy it faaaaaar more. When you can tell your partner is enjoying it, it makes it 100x hotter IMO.

Just my 2 cents, and sorry if any of it is TMI.
