This article is for those dedicated husbands and fathers who love playing Magic.
Way to exclude any females who might have been interested in what you had to say. I'm sure some points could have pertained to them - but by all means - keep the stereotypes up.
I haven't spent any real money in Arena, and have only improved my deck via spending in-game earnings. My favourite deck right now is:
4x Rabid Bite
4x Ram Through
4x Wildborn Preserver
2x Lovestruck Beast
1x Sporeweb Weaver
3x Thrashing Brontodon
3x Arasta of the Endless Web
2x Nylea, Keen-Eyed
4x Questing Beast
2x Renata Called to the Hunt
4x Elder Gargaroth
23x Forest
It's time for the Sporeweb Weaver to go, and I'm wavering on the Lovestruck Beast. Most of the rest I really like, but I'm wondering if there's a good deathtouch creature that can be inserted that can help instakill with Rabid Bite and Ram Through. Thoughts? My last upgrade was completing the Elder Gargaroth playset and upping Nylea, Keen-Eyed at the expense of an Arasta of the Endless Web, which has been a good change.
If it's something as innocent as this, that would be great. Many aspects of my internets are exploding, and looking at Rick and replacing it with Odric, that eases some of the surprising stress I've had about Magic over the last couple of days.
But since we're in the Rumor Mill, who would the other cards translate to then? The next generation of Innistrad heroes?
Am I reading it wrong, or dues Tajuru Paragon fulfill party all on its own?
Oh well, I guess that site is as dead as this thread is...
The problem has come with more recent sets (I keep playsets of all basic lands + tokens) where the 800 count don't quite cut it anymore. Most sets seem to be happy in the 930, but, yeah, M19 decided to be extra special...
I have some of the double rows, but they are clunkier, and have a lot of dead space on the top and sides (my adjustable shelves leave less than 1/4" space above the boxes). They are also a lot harder to rummage through, as I'm very used to searching regular boxes, and hate flipping through a box like the old card catalogs. Plus, I keep playsets in penny sleeves, and when they're stored upright like that, I always feel like I'm introducing dust or debris into the sleeves if I search those boxes too much.
lol, this is probably way too eccentric/anal of me... but this is the one thing I've decided to collect, and dammit, I'm going to collect correctly
Does anyone know of a source that sells something longer than the 930 count box? Any help is appreciated.
1x NM-/LP+ Arabian Nights City of Brass
Pile B:
3x Cavern of Souls AVR
3x Aether Vial (any)
With the continual spike of Arabian cards, I'm wondering if now is the time to let my City of Brass go? Would getting Pile B be good value? A lot of modern staples have rebounded very well upon reprints, and I would expect Cavern to do the same. Is it worth Pile B?
Ahh, I misunderstood Pauper. I thought there was a dollar threshold on legal cards for the format. Forgot it was rarity.
Nope, I wasn't thinking of anything like that, I was just plain wrong. Thanks for the quick history lesson!
