    Not sure how he concedes to 1 cry when he drew like 20 extra cards.

    Death's Shadow, Birds of Paradise, Llanowar Elf, Goblin Lacky, Heritage Druid, Nettle Sentinel, Arbor Elf, Elvish Mystic, Goblin Guide, Fyndhorn Elf, Mother of Runes, Quiron Elf, and I'm sure there are plenty of others as well. It's a fine card and sees play in a couple of different tempo...

    I think it's a really cool card that can facilitate some nice constructed decks. But you get one in play and cast a few random elementals in limited and it's overwhelmingly dumb. Awesome card, just should be rare.

    It's nowhere near broken, but it's obviously pushed enough for constructed. and it doesn't destroy limited games the way something like Reef Risen does, which actually should be rare for limited purposes.

    Neither one plays off the ball. They're different types of players but both have historic usage rates. It's absurd how ball dominant both players are.

    Yeah neutral field game. Always bugged me that teams lose a home game to play in London or Mexico or whatever.

    could use that extra game as those shitass neutral field foreign games that fuck over a team by counting as a home game.

    Which nets you 250 more xp every week than you got with the old system if you do everything. And you don't have to play every day to do it. just every 3rd day to not miss any of the daily gold quests.

    Is this something that's happening in unranked or something? I face a pretty wide variety of decks while mythic laddering. Both Bo3 and Bo1.

    I mean while shitty, that's a ~ 4 percent occurance on a 1 lander in a 20 land deck.

    It's not a horrendous spot and they would have been doing it anyways. They have some good young players and one of the better front offices and player development teams in the league. Not Spurs good at that stuff, but better than most of the league. They won't have to suck for 50 years to...

    I dunno, maybe they felt like they really couldn't do it right now as they are. It's possible some of those draft picks aren't going to all be late picks either. They're spread out over a lot of years. And some teams have done real well with late picks.

    5 firsts, 4 unprotected, and 2 pick swaps. That's a lot of draft capital.

    yeah even you cast removal before t3 and champ on;y draws 2 cards it's totally absurd.

    yeah you'd have to make it pretty shitty, like B1 0/1 tap, lose 1 life add B, and that might honestly bleed into green's shit too much.

    As a thing if you played earlier today before the patch and got 3 wins or did your dailies and whatnot you can't get any xp today.

    Yeah, wasn't intended as a complaint. Was just saying that it's not really just more free shit. You can reasonably mythic ladder for free so it's got a good leg up compared to a lot of other games. Does appear that they've gone the EQ route with their patches though, downtime was supposed to...

    They got rid of the 3 weekly packs to add the Mastery/XP system so for a lot of people it'll be less free shit, not more.

    He's had 1 good season and is still young, but maxing Williams just seems sketchy. Dude is pretty good, but he doesn't create contact for shit and his offense is somewhat limited.

    Yeah, Grey moment, was thinking of the SDCC type thing, which these aren't. Think there's a disconnect here, he's talking about War of the Spark boxes not Modern Horizons or whatever. Retailers get the boxes for normal box prices, they're just limited in overall supply and foreign boxes are...

    It's not nearly as bad as it was with Dominaria. That format had so many draw spells and historic loops. So many turn 1 or 2 wins.

    Most retailers can get ~ 3 boxes of Japanese a week or so in the States direct, so they're not super rare, but they aren't common either and it's a real niche market. Russian and Korean are in smaller supplies and tend to be worth more than Japanese, but Japanese cards tend to price ahead of...

    Well, now what?

    A lot of them looked ok when the model was static, but virtually every Luclin model had worse animations than the older models. I never understood how that could happen nearly completely across the board like that. 1 or 2 models sure, but almost all of them?
