Enjoyed the Chandra Bellyflop that was the opening weekend of the format. If articles on a card sales site are telling you a card is worth a $50 preorder, they're probably lying in order to get you to buy a $50 preorder.

No Garlic? How else am I supposed to cure cancer? I was told to use it by an authority!

I hope it lets me charge locals fines to continue worshipping their heathen religion, then get drunk and go on a tear, stealing their idols, then charge them again to let them buy back their idols. If not, my immersion will be minimal.

Of course they'd choose South America for their MMO setting, gotta get that Amazon.

I really like this limited. The Renegade Freighter destroyed so many lives last weekend.

New 3-6month redemption window for MTGO is AIDs. Does Hex get to sue MTGO for adding treasure chests? :)

Yeah, it's a dumb cash grab trying to move product. Just like the rest of these formats that pop up for 6 months each year that are always sponsored by some store.

Guys, just imagine the MMO he could make with the resources of the presidency.

Wonder if there's some Mormons with their jimmies rustled over Arabia's "Always gets the final Great Prophet" UA in Civ 6.

Amusingly, there was a patch or two worth of time in Pandaria where Thunderfury was a completely viable Brewmaster off-hand, since they had removed the Attack-Speed Debuff that all Tanks used to apply, Thunderfury was back to being a unique damage-reduction improvement tool, and monk was able to...

@ronne: After the full pre-release weekend, Renegade Freighter is pretty much my favorite limited common in the set. Punishes slow draws *so* damn hard, and even good curve draws tend to have to either double block it or take 10 before they can deal. The sealed pool I won with saturday had...

Well, the legality is based on the "non-counterfeitable" new card-face+Rarity Hologram, so going back to RTR wouldn't make any sense for what they're trying to do. Japan's sitting right next to the world's biggest source of counterfeit cards, so I can fully understand a store hoping to launch a...

Obviously you need to buy a complete 4x playset of everything legal in Frontier because it's totally going to be the next big thing and not just a format created by a big store to try to empty out worthless backstock, ferreal.

Yay less time-wasting; floor-rules updated to limit folks to one pile shuffle per randomization set.

He's obviously reading this thread for health advice.

I've got my Grandpa's Mason Sword, it's pretty neat. He wanted to be a shriner but his wife wouldn't let him. Buncha lushes in tiny cars! "But that's why he wanted to be one..."

For the longest time, the assumed survival rule of a rogue trying to solo something was "Does it give EXP? You're probably going to die. Pray your low-skill-cap Intimidate works!" Smoothed out in Velious with raid gear. I could finally kill the lowest con blues solo and consistently survive...

Obviously the only way to settle this is to wait for Blizzard to launch a vanilla server and race.

Arcane Explosion ALL THE MURLOCS.

Apparently Blizzard just lost their Lead Quest Designer too. Obviously the worker bees are rebelling after finding out the next IP is an open world survival PVP game set in the Dora the Explorer universe.

Hey man, for your average scrublord just clearing the corehound trash was 8 days of content a week!

Pizza is a balanced combination of all food groups right? A supreme pizza a meal should keep you in perfect shape.

Riot doesn't want to fulfill the terrible prophecy of the S in their title.

Only if you go higher than Mythic 0.

Normally I wouldn't care about random pre-tier, pre-trinkets balance, but the fact that we won't even sniff tier until January makes the baseline balance level matter a bit more. I'd expect the patch next week that sets raid live will have a lot of changes one way or the other. However, there...

The Rashmi<=>Mishra Planar Portal thing is amusing. [Phyrexia Intensifies]

Pardo left blizzard two years ago. Losing Nick Carpenter is definitely a fresh hit, though, since he was the WoW Cinematic guy. Probably a combination of burn-out and wanting to work with an old friend, since Carpenter's last project was the WoW movie which kinda vomited all over itself...

Leaving to spend more time with his family? I've seen that excuse before. He's obviously been caught sending people dick pics with a green filter.

EDH Bling Holocaust. The new Sword of X & Y art is tight. Wouldn't even be mad about opening one of the Gearhulks, since the art is nice. Expedition Aether Vial: For when you want to play a budget deck in modern, but want your opponent to know budget isn't the reason.

From Pardo's little quote it sounds like they want absolutely nothing to do with "big" games like MMOs.

So, good news, Expeditions are now a baseline "thing" for Magic sets. Should mean slightly cheaper singles in general for people who don't care about bling, as the set's EV absorbs alternate art Mana Crypts and shit; while people who care about bling get 90s-Score-CCG-Style Wacky Bordered Alt...

Shadowpriests are not particularly good in 5-man content. SP has too heavy a single-target focus, and their best gimmick, Surrender, doesn't get full use. It's just a difference in "meta;" 5 mans are burst aoe all the time, raids give your single-target focus the environment and time it needs...

We just need to go Medieval Citizenship with this shit, and base your entry into the Citizen caste on ability to suck Profession Guild Cock or to Beat People's Fucking Faces In Proper, or to have enough money to hire other people to serve as militia in your stead. And then every 10-25 years we...

Curt doesn't lose anything! He won negative moneys!

I seem to remember Jenga starting to sell 2-packs of jenga towers like a month before 9/11 happened. Unfortunate marketing decisions.

In Today's Magic Drama: Random Blogger bitching that Kaladesh isn't India-enough. And shrieking appropriation and not-appropriation at the same time. Magic can't win. Change the setting to contain people of all races on each plane? NOW THAT'S OFFENSIVE BECAUSE THIS PLANE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE...

If you're pulling/stunning properly most non-boss entities should be dead before they get to you with your 20+ withered hucking rocks.

You're shit out of luck on eBay pre-order cancellation as long as they refunded your money; all you can do is leave them a negative feedback a month later.

Yes, but it thins your deck down entirely and replaces the ones you had in hand from a deck that's only land and gas :) I'm not saying it's actually *good*, but it's amusing.

I find it absolutely hilarious that you can Lost Legacy yourself. GTFO Shadowborn Apostle x26~
