General Magic / Hinata, Dawn-Crowned abilities

« on: May 10, 2022, 01:32:59 am »

I just want to clarify a few different scenarios using Hinata, Dawn-Crowned , I looked through the forums for answers but no one has ever really given a solid example of what some of the casting costs might actually look like . spells with (x) or (x)(x) like Conflagrate . I posted a few examples below and have written down what I think it would cost , just wanted to compare my answers to someone who has a better understanding of this card .

scenario 1 I want to tap everything my opponents own on the table hypothetical 20 permanents, and I cast gridlock.

scenario 2 Player attacks me with 10 creatures I cast Rock Slide and I target all 10

scenario 3 opponent drew 4 cards and i cast Even the score to draw 3 cards

 

Thanks for any help you can provide .

Commander Deck Reviews / Sythis

Sythis

I am really interested in making a sythis enchantress deck. I have made a list of all the cards that I own (I have about 50 more to add). I have looked at many of the other decks, but I am not positive if they are really play testing these or they are just fabricated. I'm just looking for suggestions from another person's perspective of people who play the game more than I do . Will be looking to eliminate 100 cards in the next few days and making the final cut in a week or so . I am very open to ideas and suggestions . I am not interested in the token build but I  want to use politics and taxes . I will be finishing the list tonight . Thanks for any help and ideas you provide !!

General Magic / wrenn and sixx

« on: July 28, 2019, 06:44:36 pm »

I recently acquired a wrenn and six but do not play r/g . the price is crazy it seems overwhelming strong . Not sure what will happen with this card but feel like its best to sell it  . Do any of you feel the same ? I do not want another Paradox Engine loss ( I have 7 of them) and did not enjoy the recent news .

General Magic / Walking Ballista

« on: May 07, 2018, 12:46:28 am »

I have been watching this card for a while now and its still on an up and steady gain . As of today $18.12 . This is insane . I have been holding on to 18 of these since its release . Are that many people using this card is all other formats ?? I only play standard , brawler and pauper .

Deck Reviews / [Brawl] u/w historic tap

u/w historic tap

Main play was to use D'Avenant trapper and cast historics keeping them tapped out . Daring Archaeologist for recursion . Artificer's Assistant and Padeem, Consul of Innovation for draw and hexproof . Approach of the second sun for alternative wincon , settle the wreckage + fall of the thran  + watchers of the dead for cripple. Helm of the host and metallurgic summonings to keep board state established .

General Magic / Dominaria Pre Release

« on: April 22, 2018, 06:42:46 pm »

I hope everyone enjoyed the release of Dominaria . I won 3 packs of cards . I played b/w historic tap deck . Went to a new place this time and it was so much better than the last . The people were kind and friendly , no table flipping . I bought a box and get a free promo card along with the 2 in the tournament box . Firesong and Sunspeaker .

General Magic / kaladesh masterpiece cards

« on: April 18, 2018, 04:15:37 am »

Hey any of you out there won any masterpieces from kaladesh invention set ? I do not play commander at the moment , nor do I see myself playing anytime soon now that brawler is out . So there is a bit of a buying frenzy right now over these . I guess they are for collectors and hard core gamers who foil out their decks ( or so my friend says  ) . I have 5 of these left in my collection , I sold 2 a bit back . right now face value is $330 and I got an offer of $175 .  Seems pretty reasonable  . Was going to use the money and buy a box of Dominaria and use the rest on singles to try and fill out my 2 pauper decks .  Just looking for an honest opinion from all you folks . realistically they are sleeved in a binder just sitting there , and I do not use them , which makes no sense to hold on to them but I wonder how long it will be before we see another "special series"  like expeditions , inventions , invocations ?? and therefore could be a big price growth .    decisions

General Magic / Challenger Decks

« on: April 07, 2018, 06:04:28 am »

So I wanted to really see what was in this one , so I purchased it at Walmart when leaving work tonight . It retails at 31.98 I get a discount , so I got it for 29.00 . I threw a deck together using deck-builder just to tally up the overall value and I am quite surprised main board was $76. and change side board was $6 and change . There are a few decent cards in the deck .  Unfortunately after 6 months 95% of this deck is out of standard rotation with the way it functions now . Just wanted to give a heads up to all the folks out there who are on these forums .

Harvesting Humans

CRYPTOLITH RITE , HARVEST SEASON

The deck idea was based on those 2 cards . I guess it work in many case scenarios . Id like to pursue this theme and try to control the board with humans and get all my mana  on the table asap . I added in a few enchants , equipment some small defenses , not sure if sixth sense or swell of growth really fit , but was looking for something cheap with benefits . If you can somehow help me bolster this up Id be grateful . I do have all these cards and a boat a ton more . I just started collecting cards in Oath so I have everything from there forward at my disposal . Thanks !!

General Magic / aetherborn marauder

« on: March 28, 2017, 03:20:17 am »

Once again I am searching for some solid feedback     Im just going to throw out the scenario and answer what I think the outcome would be but let you correct me if i am wrong .
So on the table I have Winding Constrictor , Fretwork Colony , Ridgescale tusker , and Drana, Liberator of Malakir . Each has lets say 2 counters on them . Its now my turn and i bring in Aetherborn Marauder . Now the wording to me on winding constrictor "If one or more counters would be placed on an artifact or permanent you control , that many  plus one of each of those kinds are placed on that permanent instead "  means each time I move a counter from one permanent onto Aetherborn Marauder , Winding Constrictor should trigger ??  So I would end up with 16 counters on Aetherborn Marauder ??

Just seems a bit ridiculous but so is the recent combos in Standard   
Is this accurate ??
