Hell yeah.

8 mana is a lot, but i'm sure i'll die to it an awful lot in limited

For this card to be a thing, it likely will need a tribal home that really wants a 1 drop. By itself it's pretty marginal at best.

Why win in turn 6 when you can win on turn 36?

Can probably still do 2 color decks and it's not like Scrylands will be the only fixing.

Well 2 color decks should be pretty easy, but 3 color decks should have a real cost to their manabase. 4-5 color decks should be very rare in Standard.

My issue with Theros Standard was that the devotion decks were largely the same with Theros as they were later on. Also I generally liked Scrylands, 3 color mana bases should come at a cost, even if it's just 8+ of your lands always coming into play tapped. I also rather enjoyed the 1 Elixir...

Scrylands back in m20. I feel like there being a cost to playing 3 color manabases in Standard is good and that having mana as good as it is now should be rare and centered around gold card centric blocks like Ravnica.

Core sets are the same size as large expansions. There's plenty of limited cards and trash in every set. What you don't get in core sets nearly as much is linear mechanics like blocks get.

I did 5 on Phinny, I'm sure I'll do at least 1 probably more here.

Well the core sets back then were absurdly powerful. But in general, they were getting used as ways of controlling standard/extended by reprinting whatever they didnt necessarily want in the blocks. In 2009 they started adding new cards to core sets with M10 and that's been how it's gone since...

That hasn't been true in a long time. Or ever really.

I mean you get a free one every 4 days for gold, then you should be earning some amount of gems.

Watching people do the counters event with shitty merfolk decks is quite something. U/G is fine, but you need to just play good individual cards and not all those shitass merfolk. Druid and Biogenic Ooze are wild.

He's also an excellent defensive player. That certainly matters. Look nobody is saying that he's going to ever be the best player in the league or something, but he does some things real well.

Yeah, his shooting has been bad. He does a lot of other things really well though so I think he's a worthy project as a skillset. But his dad is ridiculous.

Lonzo is a pretty good player, but he comes with an awful lot of baggage. His dad is wild.

If they could convince someone like Harris to take 20m instead of a near max contract that he might end up getting from some bad team, they could also go after like danny green and reddick both and get a lot of shooting. But that's a lot of ifs and maybes and seems like you'd need a real gm to...

Lakers really need to hit on Kemba or Butler, and hope they can get some cheap shooters. If they can get Kemba, and get like Reddick and some other dudes on exemptions/minimum type contracts they could be real good, but they've been kind of a hot mess so not sure how likely any of that is.

People want to make it seem like without Durant that Golden State is the same team that went 73-9 the season before he got there. But it's not true at all. Their bench/depth is nothing like it was then and if you think Iggy and Green are as good as they were 3-4 years ago you're crazy. That...

And for every "mugging" in the 90s you had 3 free baskets because nobody did shit off the ball and you could drag the bigs out of the paint. Such awesome defense when 4 or 5 players are completely uninvolved.

He's about as unpredictable as a high level athlete can get.

This sequence of events the last couple of possessions is unreal.

What the fuck.

Would never expect Green to make that pass like that.

He probably should have been on over Kemba or Westbrook. Westbrook is super overrated.

Curry's a better shooter, but Klay is a great perimiter defender. He's also the player that gets the hottest of anyone in the league. If you had to pick a player to score 15 points in 3 minutes, he's the dude.

It's because they're always tapping out for powerful walkers and removal. Like I said the control and aggro decks have a bunch of midrange cards in them now, because that's where all the most powerful cards have been the last few years.

Combo > control > aggro > midrange. That's generally how I rank archetypes in general but specifics obviously matter. Problem with recent magic is all the other archetypes have picked up a lot of Midrange aspects since that's where the majority of the good cards have been.

That's not how players work. They're always going to choose to play. It's on the doctors and the team to shut them down.

That's actually a reasonable position. And he's not wrong about not leaving it up to the player.

The main problem with the female characters isn't even that they're bad. They're just all so similar that they're essentially the same character with only a couple of exceptions.

Well that was something.

I mean that's pretty much every finale of this show.

Psylocke would be good if they got someone that could actually act. Most of the female mutants could carry a movie if the movie isn't shit and you get someone that can actually do it.

Well, I mean the team isn't literally the pre Durant team + KD. They did lose some depth when they got him.

Killing that random sergeant in STV for 4 honor was a big part the 750k or whatever honor my druid had the week he hit high warlord.

Books 7 to 10 could easily have been 2 books instead of 4. So much fluff. There's some juice in those books too, but there were some threads that should have been 2 chapters instead of a quarter of 2 or 3 books.

I mean I hate the Sox as much as just about anyone, but that's real shitty.
