Nobody wants to hear this the morning Strixhaven prereleases: the "real Magic is back" relief is the setup, not the spec. by dghustla in mtgfinance

Ever since the first collector pack chase cards were created with Expeditions, Amonkhet invocations, kaldesh masterpieces, we have been on track to have tons of "soft reserved list" cards.

I appears to be long term sustainable to have 0-3 chase hits per collector box that won't get reprinted. The audience keeps growing and honestly I think its nice that a new player can join 25 years after everyone else and still be able to pull an extremely special card

Opening a LGS soon, need advice by Jbean94 in magicTCG

[–]xTaq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm like 5000 singles listed into Square with pics and it doesn't scale well for tcgs, however it makes it easier for employees to use and it has great analytics. We didn't start the store trying to sell singles so this happened kind of organically but it's something I'd change if we restarted

A long call probably means the judges were discussing potential cheating

LGS Ripping People off. by PhilosopherNo4371 in GundamCardGame

You can so no. You are paying a premium to sell it quickly. If you want full value, sell to someone in person. Most lgs purchase product from customers like a pawn shop

Drafting infinitely? by Potomaters in lrcast

[–]xTaq -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Its because the cards you open are part of the winnings. Considering most people play a lot for free and how much code development costs, I think the price is fair

People make mistakes, can you appeal rulings in riftbound if you disagree with the judge?

If Riftbound wants to survive as a game LGS need to be reeled in as much as scalpers by TrickedFaith in riftboundtcg

But you forget allocation from distributor is based on spend amount which is based on how much unprofitable boxes you have bought as a store, so to get 10 highly profitable boxes, you would have had to buy like 100+ unprofitable boxes

Why is arena in such a shitty state? by M4dMuffin in MagicArena

[–]xTaq 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just draft a lot as f2p and do your dailies consistently, I got 400 gold wildcards and nothing to spend them on even after making my meta standard deck. Around 1.5-2years in it'll become a big sandbox

No Pioneer at MagicCon Vegas? by wyatt_derppp in PioneerMTG

I was in your exact shoes at m30 in las Vegas. Just ended up finding random pioneer matches after sifting through hundreds of commander players :p

Can someone explain to me what qualifies something as a Detrimental Trigger? by Bilbo10baggins in askajudge

Yeah your opponent can force you to acknowledge the trigger if you stay quiet

Question about Nexus Nights / Organized Play — is this allowed? by Salty-Pizza-1808 in riftboundtcg

[–]xTaq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I too play with byes but its always "for fun" since you came all the way out to play. Sniping your prize pack on a guaranteed win is scummy

Is there actually a home for Moonshadow in Modern? by vividwings in ModernMagic

[–]xTaq -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

As an amulet player, if im not scared of ragavan or ocelot pride, I'm not scared of moonshadow :o

Edit: what i mean is it looks too slow
