I started Bleach for the hype but then just kinda stopped at episode 73 because no more big boom explosions, although I did get high a while back and watched episode 300.

I've been advised that, if I ever wanted to get into Bleach, to just read the manga and just ignore the anime. Something about it being better or something.
June 8, 2015 7:34 p.m.
Bleach, both the anime and manga, were both very good until a certain point. Bleach is the only anime to have actually good filler arcs. And I actually do mean good. They were on par with the actual story.
The manga, as far as i'm aware (I stopped reading it a while ago), is still on going. The anime, however, was canceled two or three years ago. I'll assume that no one knows much about the story, but the main bad guy for the, i dunno, first four or five arcs gets defeated (obviously, not really a spoiler)... but the story didn't end.
They asked themselves, "hey, we like this universe, but our story is over... what to do?" and came up with "start a second main story, a la sword art online, and make everyone upset while trying to milk more money out of the franchise" instead of "end a great show with dignity."
It didn't end well for them. But yea, the story (the actual main story) does have an actual, real ending. And it's pretty good. I'd say, if you're interested, go ahead and watch or read it. Both are great options. But be prepared to be like "ok it's over" before it's actually, well, over.

6tennis Not really. I hate untap's interface because it's easy to make mistakes on it without realizing it and then you get some really nasty people.

I think I took an extra turn without realizing it. And he decided that insulting me was the best course of action.

Vamp I feel ya
I keep getting cards for my Azami deck, deciding they're bad, and revamping the deck once a month or so.

I just redid Marath. It's pretty Cruel when I get my draws as I can annihilate an entire board by like T-4/5ish with the various combos and shiz
Though I have like 0 recursion and I'm not sure if that's bad.
June 8, 2015 8:55 p.m.
I have a very unlikely t1 win marath deck but its consistent on t3-5.
June 8, 2015 8:57 p.m.
SPEAKING OF CRUEL, I just got to 80 life and lost. To a control deck.

VampireArmy says... #18
oh...I have that Nevermind! I have UNO ways of recursion :P
Also people should please actually tag me. Lately people have been mentioning me and I have no idea because I don't get a notification telling me so
June 8, 2015 8:59 p.m.
So I'm starting to splurge on cards again. I just have a weakness for Japanese stuff, I guess.

Oh, I didn't know it was safe to subscribe to JC again. In that case, I'm back peoplez.
I watched Bleach, all of it, never read the manga though. Even though I haven't read the manga, I know what it is about. Bleach was a good show. :)
June 8, 2015 9:06 p.m.
Okay, I have decided that my pillow fort deck will be my pet deck.
How hard will it be to get foiled Japanese Near-Death Experiences?
June 8, 2015 9:09 p.m.
Oh come on, it's a junk rare! Shouldn't be TOO hard... right?
June 8, 2015 9:13 p.m.
You guys prob already know this, but they've started Magic Origins spoilers. Almost 30 cards revealed today.
June 8, 2015 9:15 p.m.
Actually, I should probably just MAKE the deck, and then try and get cool foils and what-not for it... that might be better.
June 8, 2015 9:17 p.m.
Nah, it's probably not that bad. Just check eBay. They have everything except a decently priced mint Library of Alexandria and Mishra's Workshop.
June 8, 2015 9:18 p.m.
Ok, just checked eBay.
Would you believe me if I said there wasn't a single Japanese Near-Death Experience on there?

I didn't know they started spoilers for Origins. Well, guess I know what I'm about to go do.

He's no Gatekeeper of Malakir but he coo. I'm extremely Hyped to return to my first deck potentially. Rakdos vamps will be reborn
Funny though : I remember gatekeeper not being the best in Standard either. too many allies and 'drazi spawns running amuck.

All these dragon sets and my Kaalia deck still hasn't found anything good
June 8, 2015 10:01 p.m.
VampireArmy says... #42
that's because The R/B dragons were not so great for commander :T aside from like Stormbreath Dragon and Thunderbreak Regent (debateably)
That 2 drop enchantment is pretty bomb for Kaalia though considering your entire deck has flying
