Deck Help forum

Posted on April 14, 2015, 11:10 a.m. by Tolarius

I'm new here and just wanted to say hello, also wondering what you guys think of the deck I built and if this is the right forum for suggestions on it?

Wait that link didn't link to my deck haha, I have no idea why

April 14, 2015 11:11 a.m.

fucking casual....

not really, but anyhow, the link's there. the thing is, if you look at your deck, you'll see numbers in front of the name in the web adress. that means that someone else has that name, so you gotta put those numbers in b4 it to link the correct one.

at any rate, What you're doing is one thing some people REALLY hate. Its fine if you actually need help, but if you're jusst doing this for views like some people do, peeps get PISSED!

also, there's places for standard, modern, and such (forums), so you may wanna post in there instead.

@DERPLINGSUPREME: How about we welcome new users and not act abrasively?

@Tolarius: make sure you read the forum descriptions. They'll help teach you how and when to use the forums.

I apologize guys, I really am new and saw on most other forums it mentioned no deck postings on them. Now that I know I'll be more careful with my posts.

Don't worry about it, and thank you for posting! Just remember that all deck help goes into the 'deck help' forum and not the 'modern' or 'standard' forums etc.

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me on my wall!

Btw, you do links like this: [ [deck-large: 13-04-15-red-green-dragon-ramp] ] without the spaces between the brackets. If you want a regular inline text link you simply do "deck:" instead of "deck-large:".

Also, 6 bitch-posts after a new members first post? Really?

Also #2: Just to piss off DERPLINGSUPREME, look at my deck Tipping the scale (this is a decklink without the "-large") just so i can get more views with no reason whatsoever.

Welcome to the site Tolarius. There are lots of things that can help you out here. Also I hope you are able to help others too.

The tab at the top Rules Q&A is really helpful to get rulings questions answered.

Deck help for an occasional post to get some help. It is best to post what problems you are having, what you are looking to improve, budget, and even posting info about the decks you play against. The more information you provide, the better the help will be.

You can deckcycle your deck every day, and get some views. If you include (help) in the title, you are likely to get some help. Just make sure you have all that info I said before in your deck description. Also, you can click the Deck Builder tab at the top to see decks that others have deckcycled.

There are articles to read, and many discussions to join. How long have you played?

Derp, I think you should not talk to new people.

April 14, 2015 12:26 p.m.

@smackjack: y'know, I'm not one of the people who gets pissed off by this. I think its wrong to do, but it doesnt really bother me personally.

@Didgeridooda: I left j/c for you, I've been trying my hardest to moderate my behavior, I'm even helping the guy with his deck! what more do you ask of me?

April 14, 2015 12:31 p.m.

God people... this is inhumane.

April 14, 2015 12:33 p.m.

Aaaaaaanyways, Tolarius, welcome to THIS chaos. And get used to it :) I left a comment on your deck, hope you find it helpful! Feel free to contact me if you got questions.

Tolarius: I have payed for you to become an upgraded user. This gives you 3 deckcycles each day instead of one. It also gives you 3 feature tokens so you can give your deck super-mega exposure 3 times. You can also customise your username now :).

You should use those feature tokens by pressing "Feature queue" at the left sidebar on your decks page. Also, keep cycle it and you will get a lot of help. You can now cycle 3 times a day :)

Enjoy

Tolarius says... #25

After all it is the internet, we all have a thick skin, I appreciate every comment here. I am loving magic all over again, though I don't think I'll ever win any tournaments I love the community I play with and will learn to love it here.

EPOCH, NO KILL ME. I dint do anyhting!

April 14, 2015 1:43 p.m.

CuteSnail says... #33

EDH, also know as Commander is a format where you pick a legendary creature and build a 100 card singleton around its colours. Almost any card (in your commander's colours) can be used. There is a small ban list though. It's a blast.

So I can't use my beta black lotus'

April 14, 2015 1:48 p.m.

Nope.

April 14, 2015 1:52 p.m.

EDH, for me, is the best format I know. It encourages player interaction, politics, being sneaky, and allows you to find fun combos all the while with cards that cost anywhere from a buck to $100 each!

it'll teach you lots. It teaches you:

TIMING! when to cast the boardwipe, what to counterspell in each situation, and it encourages you to FEAR the player with open mana. no joke, I've never felt mor ealive than when I'm all out attacking a player with a big hand and open mana!

POLITICS! Why to attack people, why to run some group hug just-in-case, and how to plead people not to kill you for 1 more round.

STEALTH! it teaches you how to bluff, how to SWEAR TO GOD you REALLY CANT kill them next turn if they dont target you, ect.

FIGHTING SKILLS! When you play EDH long enoguh, you'll notice reduced reaction time, higher physical fitness, and you'll know how to beat the S***T out of someone!

its the most honest, loving format I know :)

April 14, 2015 1:54 p.m.

wait. did you say black lotus?

Do you actually own one?

April 14, 2015 1:55 p.m.

Tolarius says... #39

Yea I have a bunch of cards left over from when I first started, and I thought that might be a nice mana card to play and the same with my hydra and giant growth

April 14, 2015 2:02 p.m.

Didgeridooda says... #40

I would trade that card for a car.

April 14, 2015 2:02 p.m.

CuteSnail says... #41

I would too. In a heartbeat.

April 14, 2015 2:04 p.m.

Lotus goes for about $15000 in beta. I think.

April 14, 2015 2:04 p.m.

Tolarius says... #43

Lol seriously?

April 14, 2015 2:07 p.m.

Tolarius. holy. fucking. shit. what condition is it in?

just, btw, Mtg: suff about family and sexuality

April 14, 2015 2:08 p.m.

No wait, "only" about 7000. My bad.

April 14, 2015 2:09 p.m.

CuteSnail says... #46

Still, No piece of cardboard is worth keeping in my collection is I can have that much cash.

((not that you were talking to me >.>))

April 14, 2015 2:11 p.m.

Tolarius says... #47

Wait are you guys trolling me? I need to check out eBay real fast

April 14, 2015 2:12 p.m.

No, Black Lotus is the most expensive card in MTG. By far.

April 14, 2015 2:13 p.m.

Tolarius says... #49

Seriously though, my old cards had light play because I didn't fully understand the game at the time so I kept them in a velvet bag and recently had some belongings sent to my new place where I found the old bag.

April 14, 2015 2:13 p.m.

CuteSnail says... #50

Naw. Lotus is super expensive. I can't think of another card that rivals its price from the same set.

((I tend to think of it as the most expensive card. Are there cards more expensive than Alpha Lotus?))
