I hit Total War, and I immediately thought of Queen Marchesa, a "you must attack but not me" deck I made before Goad existed (well, maybe like 5ish cards). Clunky, but fun!

Well, I have a strong opinion on the Oxford comma, and a lot of knowledge of Magic. It's a start ๐Ÿ˜‹

I am so badly organized, my opponent's Blood Tyrant enters the battlefield with 5 +1/+1 counters...

I can imagine yeah. And for me, I have no real connection to that pixel art, so for me it was more like feeling jarred they use that art on a Magic card.

Agreed. I played FF7, so it kind of got my attention, but I am now more interested in disassembling 10+ of my 24 decks than getting new cards ๐Ÿ˜

I think I am going to skip 95% of Edge of Eternities. There are too many sets. And every time I get excited, like for some FF cards, it feels like an old set already.

Making The Emperor of Palamecia. I still need 4 cards, have never even played the decks, and 50+ new legends are already out.

Kjeldoran Outpost was the win condition in many control decks back in the 90s :)

Also you need to find somebody like Post Malone who can easily spend that much money :)

Maybe, hard to say for a one-of-a-kind item :)

In Dutch we would say "whatever a crazy person would give for it" ๐Ÿ˜

What I remember is that the guy who won it (forgot his name) sold it to a private collector. Somehow I am thinking of an amount of $10,000. Not sure why.

It is also embedded in the trophy I think, so not easily even put in a deck.

I could be wrong, my information could very well be 15+ years old ๐Ÿ˜

We did this as well and it was a very good start, but no way my kid wasn't peeing his pants anymore. We did stop the diapers completely, and accept the misses and just carry extra clothes.

No technique is foolproof of course :)

Grmbl...yes, I should have picked them up when they were 10 euro and I thought 6 was enough, but I couldn't resist this one for 22 euro...now it totally expect it to win me games ๐Ÿ˜

I can recommend bracket 2 Kotis Mutate Commander a lot! Probably not as powerful as the "Giant Growth" version, but so much fun!

I mutated these three on him and got soooo much value! A 10/10 flying indestructible that steals from the library hits like a truck ๐Ÿคฉ

Last Commander game of the evening: my Benton vs Karlach/FF vs Dalakos. All blazing starts, but it was over in 10 minutes on turn 6. I had 25 cards in hand and beat the snot out of Dalakos and Karlach. What a great card. Thanks John :)

Oh, mind blown! I had not looked close to the art, I just somewhere assumed the Emperor was female, maybe due to the pose and the flowing robes....not sure! I had never heard of the Emperor before :)
