Title: So what are your thoughts on the new bobbleheads?
Post by: Jesterskull on February 24, 2024, 08:13:15 pm
Honestly I like having another dice mana rock for Mr. House but I not including 4 of the others.

Only having 3 out of the 7. (Just S.,A.,L.)


But looking on other opinions on the new Bobblehead mana rocks.

Strength Bobblehead (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Strength+Bobblehead)

Perception Bobblehead (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Perception+Bobblehead)

Endurance Bobblehead (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Endurance+Bobblehead)

Charisma Bobblehead (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Charisma+Bobblehead)

Intelligence Bobblehead (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Intelligence+Bobblehead)

Agility Bobblehead (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Agility+Bobblehead)

Luck Bobblehead (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Luck+Bobblehead)

I like Charisma (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Charisma), Perception and Intelligence as mana rocks that have utility in the late game if you flood (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Flood).
But 3cmc is a high bar for mana rocks these days.  :-\

Depends on the commander and what your playing yeah.

Running like 7 other mana rocks too (5 are cheaper)

Two of which are already Component Pouch (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Component+Pouch) and Vexing Puzzlebox (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Vexing+Puzzlebox)

Similar to Luck but feels like need to be included in any Mr. House Deck.

Plus my deck has alot of need for haste effects and 1+/1+ counters.

And for finally for Luck win condition.... you can just use an infinity combo to copy the bobblehead right?

Lithoform Engine (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Lithoform+Engine) or The Mycosynth Gardens (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=The+Mycosynth+Gardens)

The more dice your roll, the robots you will have anyway in my deck. (with counters and haste with additional effects.)

Yeah, I was talking about them in general, not in a specific deck.

Don't copy Luck Bobblehed too many times, bcs you need to roll exactly seven 6s to win  ;D

I don't know......even if I copy it 45 times because of an easy combo.....

That's still alot of treasures and 3/3 robots....

And How Did New Vegas End with Mr. House Again?

(Also technically this also how Mr. House began....)

You would want 42 bobbleheads to win with Luck Bobblehead (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Luck+Bobblehead). That gives the best expected value for rolling seven sixes.

I find Charisma (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Charisma), Perception, and Intelligence to be mana rocks with useful late-game utility, especially if you're dealing with plnkgame (https://plnkgame.com) mana flooding. However, these days, a converted mana cost (CMC) of 3 is considered quite high for mana rocks.
