Yea, quite possibly. Probably expect an email saying that they are short on staff (but never change how long they claim they will ship out orders). upon which time they will start with your order for the first time. Or expect an email response in a few days accompanied with a half apology that makes you feel like you are to blame and a refund a couple days later.
You are at a random person's garage sale and you find out that the seller had kids who moved out who played magic in the early 1990s. He hands you the box of cards and you find a bunch of moxen, maybe some lotuses, and other cards worth at least tens of thousands of dollars. The seller does not know any of the cards are worth anything and is mostly selling all his stuff so he can have room for an indoor gym so he offers you all the cards for 10 dollars. Would you buy them off him for 10 dollars or tell him their true value?
Offer him 8. Use the 2 dollars to buy a coffee for the ride home.
Like before when I wanted VVine to get banned in legacy before axing survival, I would much rather see Lodestone go out before looking at workshop. That said, I don't think golem or shop should be touched right now.
For what its worth mtgfanatic seems to be living up to their reputation:
Azathoth:
Hello my friends,
I open this post to report because from yesterday night to this morning "MTG FANATIC" has canceled a order I made 20 days ago without any reason.
After some mails to ask why he did that, he answered me that because of the change of the price of the card he will not send because cards got up in price.
I will open a case on Pay Pal but I think it will bring me nothing.
I didn’t thought that big sellers did this case of rude tricks to customers.
¿Can someone help me out with this problem and to get my cards from the price I bought them?
Thanks
After about 10 days (in addition to the 2 weeks plus the first week of verification) and 10 unanswered emails they replied back saying that my order was never shipped because they were out of stock when I ordered the cards.
Sounds like they may have used you for free 4 week 300 dollar loan.
To the people with only 4 therapy do you think that is enough to stave off combo decks.
It depends on the type of combo, but the answer is almost universally 'no' across the board. A few liliana's md help keep the card count down to supplement the therapy's, but are too slow without any type of assistance.
Post board options include but are not limited to: duress, thought seize, gaddock teeg, ethersworn canonist, leyline of sanctity, etc. As obvious, all the answers are free, 1 mana single effect or 2 mana permanent effect.
As has been mentioned, I would be thrilled for Burning Wish to come off for vintage, and Land Tax for legacy. I -think- flash should also come off. Compared to when it was legal, most of the blue search/cantrips have been restricted (merchant scroll, brainstorm, ponder, thirst). In additional, grafdiggers cage has been printed.
I think two Liliana's belong in most lists. Maybe 3 in some. After that, any extra walkers and which ones seem to be dictated by the rest of your deck and meta.
Master of the Wild Hunt and Garruk Relentless are amazing together, and Relentless is a perfect fit with Academy Rector. However, if you don't run Hunt or Rector then Garruk might not be right. His loyalty not moving past 3 is a significant detriment if his 'fight' or wolves are not being abused.
Elspeth has various benefits, oddly the best one might be planewalker ruling out the opponents Elspeth as jumping tokens and her Pw's ability to dodge deed make her a formidable win condition against us. Secondly, her tokens are white which gets around sword of feast and famine. Her jump gives us active non-destroying outs to moat. She is also the best PW at 'winning' vs. other walkers by producing evasive 4 loyalty hit squads.
Wildspeaker is powerful, producing formidable threats while increasing loyalty. However, I can barely get behind running 4 mana PW's let alone 5 mana triple greens. If I were to use him it would be at the expense of any other 5 drop.
I love lifegain in nicfit, because unless they are doing something unfair (dredge, storm, emrakul) we tend to pull away late game. I already run 2 ooze MD, which I think will become the standard, and have 2 finks md which is a metacall (zoo, burn, URdelver, pox, etc). Sorin gives the 1-1 of elspeth, possible lifelink to prolong the game, and a swiss army removal effect. He should have applications in versions of nicfit.
TLDR - I have ran between two and five (liliana, garruk 2, 3, elspeth, gideon) PW's in my 60 card list and have settled on only 2 liliana. I have opted for 3 drops instead of 4 drop walkers. Actively waiting for the day I can reintegrate them.
Also, I don't really like tokens and Deed. I understand they let you rebuild if you pop it, but they still have negative synergy.
Not really. If you are activating deeds are few things are likely: A) All creatures are dead and we are in a winning position because we have a stronger late game. The fact that they were tokens is moot. B) All creatures except our 4, 5 or 6 drop is dead and we are in a winning position.
It was supposed to be called Nice Fit, talking about the synergy between therapy, vet explorer, deeds, etc. But a typo was made in the threads title (Nic Fit). It's been called that ever since.
Easy sell/trade. That price will be half in short order.
