As far as Universes Beyond goes I've seen a pretty positive result on the people I play with.

One of my friends who stopped playing after he had his collection stolen a number of years ago started to play again after I gave him a tyranid deck.

One of my friends from work got really into deck building and has been active since lotr and fallout sets. He is also super into Marvel, so he is looking forward to the upcoming sets. My play group at work are also much more proxy friendly after the 30th anniversary proxies set, so I made him a proxy of Kelsien, the Plague themed as Gambit.

Another friend from work has started to play physical magic since getting the Riders of Rohan deck.

And the person I play magic with the most has been building themed decks around pop culture or stories we want to tell for years with me.

I was pretty skeptical of UB before, but I am now more concerned with poor game balance and half baked original stories from WOTC.

I was hoping there was an option for your uncle let you have a playset of dredge skeletons as the intro.

I thought it was a reference to the song. YouTube link

I don't think there is a lot of reasoning behind the characters or card selection here.

We've chopped and dropped most things or added it to the compost.

Whatever feels good for you, but generally they tend to rest on your hole like a sleep mask. If you have enough movement to be chafing you might want to look at something with a bit more coverage.

That's rough bud.

Good on you for giving him some chances, but he got himself down that rabbit hole and he is the one that will have to pull himself out by the bootstraps that he loves so much.

I think it makes sense, but the comment of reviewing the ban list without further bans makes me concerned.

They don't have a solid track history of handling bans well or timely in other formats. Also recently we had Nadu who was designed for the format that it was just banned in.

Well it is cheap so that means that it is lower power.

Bracket 4 will be for powerful cards like Drop of Honey.

Bracket 1 will be for more balanced cards like Porphyry Nodes.

I felt the same way when I started watching games of 40k. Ended up not enjoying that though.

I definitely don't understand the short hand for the format like blue farm, but I think this might be a fun level to play at and I'm willing to take a beating.

I was watching some videos by ComedIan and Play To Win on YouTube and was actually considering getting a cEDH deck now that the format is going to slow down.

My gnome warlock got their power from getting married to a fae lord after a drunken night of revelry. Their pact was the divorce settlement and their familiar was their lawyer.

It is so fun to play the straight person around random bedlam.

 

When the camera hung on Iffy my wife and I were in stitches.

 

Box of doom dice tray on the left is a larger replica of the box of doom. the color is lighter gray, and features a number of details like small skulls that are blocked off in color, but have a lot of bleeding of color. the dice tower on the right is smaller with more embellishments like swords, and features more tidy painting of features and color washes to help give more texture.

 

It looks like we have the official release of the limited run token set.

 

Hey folks,

I was wondering if folks had any brands or stores that they particularly enjoy or find have sizes for the tall.

I've been doing a wardrobe refresh through Torrid, but keep finding the sleeves stop inches before my wrist. Finding masc clothing is less of an issue, but femme clothing or fun shoes tends to be a longer or less fruitful shopping trip for me.
