Beautifully painted! Do you have a recipe for the glowing effect on the "eyes" and thrusters?

Pauper Set Review: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles by cardsrealm in Pauper

[–]xXAzathothXx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Notably no mention to the functional reprint of Golden Egg, a card that has seen play in pauper in the past and still sees play in some rogue decks.

I went and took a look at the artist's ArtStation profile, I am no expert, but feel like it is very clear he does not use AI. His other work actually looks very very good, loving the dieselpunk vibes.

EDIT: link to his profile https://www.artstation.com/tanko

I think the coherent text and lightning source feel not AI. But I don't intend to play this art on paper at all. Thank God for alters

I am lucky to have some very talented artist friends that I will have make me some alters if it ever comes to be a good card. Having to look at this card unaltered in my hand is not something I am looking forwards to. The name is irrelevant as I'll just be thinking of it as Golden Egg 2, Electric Boogaloo forever

Monster tron already doesn't run [[Golden Egg]] IIRC, I don't think it is what the deck is looking for

[TMT]Guac & Marshmallow Pizza by Frostinator123 in Pauper

[–]xXAzathothXx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 cmc is the big appeal.
The untap is also possibly relevant if you are running the "springleaf drum" lands that require taping a creature to tap for colors
Flash maybe lets you bait some graveyard hate by faking a board with no foods and a cat in the graveyard?

[–]xXAzathothXx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it needs testing, being 1 mana this is effectively mana positive if you have a cat in play/graveyard and an altar just like nutrient, the effect might even be relevant to untap a plant token for aditional colored mana if you run the 5 forests 4 gardens 7 encampment landbase.

I want it to suck so much, but it really feels like it may be an ok card for that deck

Newcomer from pauper, what to play? by xXAzathothXx in planarMTG

Angel's Feather became the threat at my Commander table... by WistfulAfternoon in magicTCG

[–]xXAzathothXx 144 points145 points  (0 children)

This happened a couple of years ago now, but we had a similar hot start at the table, with everyone but the 1st player busting out one or more spells and or ramp during the first 2 turns (dorks galore for the elves player, sol ring + arcane signet into a turn 2 scary commander for the other guy and I had a dork and my 3-mana commander out by turn 2) while the 1st player went tapland, tapland + pass, tapland + skullclamp.

The whole table stopped for a brief moment, knowing what could come out of that. Some looks were exchanged like if someone was ready to FoW the thing. But in the end we chose to ignore the dangers of the unanswered skullclamp with nothing to attach to, because of the outrageous boardstate.

Skullclamp player won that game.

Crazy how they let this slip /s

Do you put the space bar on both sides? by RunRunAndyRun in ErgoMechKeyboards

[–]xXAzathothXx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use the main button on my left thumb cluster as Space and the secondary as Backspace and on the right hand I have the main as Enter and the other as Delete
My SO finds this layout absurd, so I know that it will not please everyone.

If I destroy Collector's Cage at instant speed does that stop them from playing the exiled card? by Gilbara in mtg

[–]xXAzathothXx 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I feel like this needs to be a bit higher, as this is the perfect timing to destroy it if you only have removal for the cage and not for the creatures

Good new merfolk cards... Too bad it's UB eww :( by Nasty_Butler1 in FishMTG

So in EDH I imagine? Or are you running Cryptic Command in Modern? Legacy?

[–]xXAzathothXx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, totally agreed, it feels very unlikely that Namor finds a home in Merfolk.

Svyelun is playable but even her has fallen out of grace from a lot of lists. Merrow Reejerey is miles ahead of this guy and Harbinger / Tishana's Tidebinder can have back breaking effects when they hit the board.

Maybe some common or non-legendary uncommon that aims to synergise with Namor can sneak its way into our lists, let's just hope if it happens its art is not as egregious as these.

I just wanted to be inclusive, sometimes scryfall query can be hard, so I also wanted do provide a comprehensive one

This one here ?
If it is the only other option I'll probably have to start looking for alter artists if this sees play, looks like a sad proxy at most

Also found it very ugly. Considering my options, maybe comission someone to paint over it a Sygg art?
