Mardu: we don't give a fuck who you claim to be as long as you come home drenched in the blood of the enemy.

I was more focusing on the naming aspect of mardu and the building and accepting of one's identity.

which involves.....coming home soaked in blood. I'm just putting it in humorous light to keep the subject easy.

Feelsgudman. Beat bw control in standard on trice using my brew of vamps. The matchup is supposed to be unwinnable for me.

Is anyone good with Matlab? I need to create a plot with two y-axis, but the function to do that (yyaxis) was introduced in a later version. Does anyone know
- of another way to do this without the yyaxis function?
- or know how to import the yyaxis function into my older version of Matlab?
April 10, 2016 9:17 p.m.
I got a little bit comfortable with MATLAB in school and in an internship but this was back in 2012 and earlier. Now I am cheap and use octave but the crossover is strong enough for educational purposes since speed is usually not a factor.
Try looking up plotyy. It looks to be suboptimal but that may or may not matter.

ducttapedeckbox says... #8
Thanks guessling, that worked! It's odd that plotyy didn't show up in the Matlab documentation. Maybe it got replaced by yyaxis?
April 10, 2016 9:53 p.m.
It's been a while like I said and since I have access to octave in place of MATLAB itself, I wouldn't be able to say for sure.

This Song and This One just turned the last 5 or so years of liking this band into a total motherloving mind fuck, dude.
3 Albums - 3 different versions of the story with the third finally putting it all together. I mean jesus christ man, this trilogy of MUSIC has a better plot line than half of the movies that come out nowadays. I wish the writer would turn it into a novel because i'd read the ever loving shit out of it. S

VampireArmy we got the discord server active again. Just sayin. For anyone else who is interested, here is the [link] (https://discord.gg/0vEBWH5yl4IuPOK9).

Is it bad that I get mad when I play loam against my self and lock myself out of the game?

DERPLINGSUPREME says... #19
@sirbar either develop another personality or stop getting mad at nothing.
April 11, 2016 9:55 p.m.
VampireArmy hey buddy, its not a bad deck. Just don't mention the words Rest in Peace.

It's a good thing my drazi and taxes plays that sideboard
April 11, 2016 10:01 p.m.
That's why I only play it as my pet deck. If I am playing to win I play grixis delver.

Was messin with you. Personally, i want to see a zombardment style deck in modern. I mean to be fair bw rally can be a thing if you're a skilled player but i love me some gravecrawler shenanigans
April 11, 2016 10:23 p.m.
I've tried zombardment but i found that the knight package was just better. Zombardment just requires to many pieces in your opening hand.

VampireArmy says... #27
Well i mean without Carrion Feeder and Cabal Therapy it'll never work though there is a pretty nice vampire version
April 11, 2016 10:32 p.m.
You got a link? I've only ever seen the style that the one pro did who's name is currently escaping me. It was basically just a jund loam deck with Zombie Infestation.
April 11, 2016 10:37 p.m.
Huh, that is actually pretty interesting. Have you tried it?

Not much. Been pretty busy lately. His video set is promising though. I'd give them a watch. Especially since twin is gone which was a hard match up

Oh! So my own work nearly gave me severe food poisoning. Bought a bag of mini doughnuts for a snack and took bite. Immediate regret. Tasted like raw dirt. Looked down. Mold everywhere. Call my manager (like the literal head manager) and he's like "oh I'll take care of it" so i punch in today and lo and behold they're still there!!! I grab one of the better team leaders and I'm like "bro look at this" motherfuckin doughnuts expired early last December. I'm like wtf bro why would you leave these here???

VampireArmy It's like that time I put a WWE pack inside a fat pack for a birthday gift. Except you have a chance to open John Cena.
April 12, 2016 12:46 p.m.
VampireArmy says... #36
That's a paradox. You can't open a john cena because you can't see John cena

@VampireArmy trump is the ultimate storm crow card, i'm calling it.
idiots pretend he's powerful when in reality he's just a dumbass in a pretty decent country.

"Politics is the new sports". "Your vote counts".
It's like those videos that are like, "Yo kids, I'm a cool dude, just like you (backwards hat, saggy pants, middle-age white dude)! And remember, drugs are for thugs (tm)". Infuriating.

I also love that is says "Politics is the new sports" instead of "Politics are the new sports"
grammar is the real drug, kids.

No no. It says "politics is the news ports. Illuminati confirmed!

Holy crap, we haven't any of these in France!
Our last president could have been the Imp, and our current... 
Politics in France are really fucked up at the moment. Not on a Trump level, but we haven't any Sanders to compensate the overall level. xP

You don't gently caress your favorite deck before you go to sleep every night?

Yes Coinman1863, that is exactly the reason why WotC did a good job with her and putting her in Mardu. I could write an entire article about the indepth details of her UR and how well written it was at portraying the trans community in the light of Mardu idealogies.
