So, last night was freaking AMAZING.
I went 4-1! Yayyy! :D
I got third place, and going into the fifth round I was the only undefeated player left.
I got $20.00 store credit, got my sideboard for my modern deck, an Origins pack and a Modern Masters pack.
I got a foiled Scab-Clan Berserker from the Origins pack, and a Blinkmoth Nexus and a foiled Primeval Titan from the Modern Masters pack.
So, in the famous words of Ice Cube...
"Today, was a good day!"

Good job dude. I opened an MMA 2 pack from an EDH night and got a goyf and a foil Comet Storm.
I think the pack was trying to tell me something.

Coinman1863, it was trying to tell you to be happy, now you have a goyf

Well, I preordered a boosterbox and pulled a foil tarmogoyf there sooo...
I think it was saying "Hey you were already lucky you bastard so here is the best and worst mythics. and the worst one is foil, so HAH!"

FAMOUSWATERMELON I was running RDW, it was funny too, I've only ever gone 2-2 or 2-3 with that deck, so the shop owner, who is a good friend of my dad's, would look at me after the third or fourth match and do a double take. XD

Since no one answered my question on the forums I figure I'd give it a try here.
In legacy, is Inquisition of Kozilek playable instead of Duress? or do you need a little of each?
This is in the context of a deck that plays 1 Thoughtseize and 2 Duress.

Coinman1863 Oddly Inquisition of Kozilek isn't as good in legacy as it is modern. In legacy there are decks like Sneak and Show, Omnitell, and other high mana stuff. It's important to note that Duress can hit Force of Will and Omniscience, Inquisition of Kozilek can't.
Both are worse than Thoughtseize and Cabal Therapy though.

Fair enough, I just got one in a large purchase from a friend and was trying to figure out if it was trading fodder or playable.
Thanks for the info.

IoK is a great card in modern, modern is full of 1-3 drops with high mana stratigies being rarer. Sneak and show and Omnitell make up a LOT of the legacy meta but in modern you will have more targets.

Fuck buddy is a common term here ChiefBell, at least among the people who are native to Canada. Foreigners maybe not so much. But when I say fuck toy, I mean that he doesn't have any say in what gets done to him, ie: he gets used, abused and treated as if he was a sex toy.
Still, fuck buddy isn't really the word for it. It's more than that. I just don't think there's a word for it. If it makes it easier, I'm polyamorous and I have this feel of a relationship with 15 or so other people.

Some people call that cuckholding but I'm not sure if that's intended to be an insult
September 12, 2015 3:54 p.m.
Femme_Fatale says... #18
Cuckolding isn't an insult, but that's only the act of what I'm doing. There's a feel to the relationship that I have with him that doesn't have a word that I also share with numerous others.

Ohthenoises says... #19
Give me ideas for a dynamic commander that is interesting yet, not boring. Bonus points for Temur
September 12, 2015 4:14 p.m. Edited.
Femme_Fatale says... #22
Yes, I know I am ChiefBell, but that's the sexual lifestyle, not the relationship, I'm referring to two different things here that are independent of each other. As I said before, I have the same feelings with numerous others who I'm not in a Dom/sub sexual lifestyle with.

Isn't cucking the cuckold watching as his/her partner is with someone else? That's not the same as dommeing or sissifying.

Femme_Fatale says... #24
You are correct, I honestly thought it meant something completely different.

Well in other news, I got this for $45. Yay for people who don't care about getting full price.
I tried to tell him that his cards were worth more but this was all he wanted, so I took it.

ThisIsBullshit says... #26
Coinman1863 are you looking for a G daddy or are you looking to trade one away?
September 12, 2015 9:08 p.m.
VA, how's the board game? I've never played hero scape, or whatever the game it's based on is called.
September 12, 2015 9:21 p.m.
VampireArmy says... #28
Complicated af but overall fun! From the way it's worded it seems there might be more walkers and squads coming in the future
September 12, 2015 9:45 p.m.
Are you talking in addition to the Ob Nixilis and Kiora that were spoiled at PAX? Because it does appear that they will be increasing the cast every so often.
September 12, 2015 9:47 p.m.
VampireArmy says... #30
I'm confused. They're adding them to the board game?
September 12, 2015 10:20 p.m.
Coinman1863 says... #31
ThisIsBullshit, looking for 2 of em, but trade an Inquisition for one preferably.

So, who likes commander? Origins updated: iPod 666GB
I resurrected my Karador deck. So much evil.

Wiley probably has no idea what you are talking about VA.
September 12, 2015 11:17 p.m.

Actually i looked it up. Kiora and ob are being added to the board game. Sweet. I'm buying it

Thinking about getting a custom playmat, just spent a few hours editing this together:
Worth $25?
Edit: you need to see it full size to truly appreciate this, it isn't as low-quality as it looks; it's actually very high-resolution.

ThisIsBullshit says... #36
I don't understand why people have specific rectangles for their library and such to go - I just put my deck wherever it's convenient, and my graveyard goes wherever it fits.
That picture is sick though and where the hell can you get custom playmats for $25??

ABadMagicPlayer100 says... #37
@Tibs I almost exclusively use that layout anyway, so why I just said screw it and put them there so it wasn't just art.
September 12, 2015 11:46 p.m.
ABadMagicPlayer100 Do you have the image without the zones or quote? Love the background but i'd like to re-personalize it if you don't mind me using that image.

Sen's Funhouse is the absolute worst. I lost ten humanity and 7K souls last night. T_T so sad.
September 13, 2015 1:40 p.m.
I finally got around to buying dark souls 2 extended version on the ps4. Had the original on the PS3 but never finished it before it finally died. Looking forward to trudging through it.
Has anyone run Holy before? I want to try it but I've never done it before and am not sure if it's good in dark souls 2, or how to build it.

I'm working openning to close today. My everything hurts. Someone save me yo
September 13, 2015 5:20 p.m.
What time do you open and close VA? Cuz that sounds awful. One of my coworkers does that once a week, 6am to 11pm. Dunno how he does that.
September 13, 2015 5:37 p.m.
VampireArmy says... #44
8Am to 10pm then a walk home which takes about an hour haha.

Surprisingly, I don't feel that bad mentally or emotionally. I'm dead physically but my mood is actually kinda great despite how overwhelmed i actually am
September 13, 2015 6:32 p.m.
Yea that sounds awful man, sorry. Worst I've got is 2pm-10pm and then an hour of clean up, do that three times a week.
Then usually get 2-3 days off, and 2-3 days of 2-7pm

I'm getting one day off a week now. I don't mind it though. This is exactly what i wanted

God, why have I been on such a commander kick these last few days?

It seems legit, the nullifiers are just to take advantage of the ingested stuff
