Legal age is Eighteen. Still statutory rape, broski. :scared:

Besides, outside of liking me so she would buy more tea, I had no interest. Even if she did have ridiculously large tits for her age. Like, seriously. It's like kids age faster these days or something. I can never correctly guess anyone's age anymore. :shrug:

Oops, legal age is 16 here. :shrug:

Happy birthday photodyer! May your days be filled with willing barely-legal virgins and everflowing booze.

Finally finished the EDH Monk deck I've been working on. It managed to go to 9001 life today. Felt good. And then lost because I accidentally decked myself. That felt not so good.


Won 3, drew 1 at my pre. Went Selesnya, because frankly I think it was the best option. I had Gruul as my pairing but ended up playing Bant.

Emmara is a bomb in sealed. Who knew. At least there's 1 format she's good in.

EDIT: @Kaze's potential statutory rape: Aren't you engaged anyway? :teach:

So here were my sealed decks from the weekend. First is Boros / Rakdos (which is exactly want I wanted), but lacked bombs. Went 3-2.

Image

Second is Orzhov / Azorious. Deck won every game I didn't mana-screw. Lots of lifelink / extort / detain / evasion. Went 2-2, but I think it would have been 4-0 with 2 more mana fixers.

Johnny - you did sealed with Japanese boosters? Must have cost a bomb.

I played a bad card at the pre-release which was Hidden Strings. However, it did give me some good value with Extort on one instance.

Why it is bad:
- Will only prevent blockers on the turn you cast it.
- When it triggers off cipher, your usual target is your mana.
- It makes you play bad magic because you want to cast your spells before combat.

He lives in Japan, so I'm guessing it cost him just about as much as ours cost us to play with English cards. :rofl:

Yeah, I would do it in English if I could. It's a pain in the ass having to look up cards when you can't remember what they do and you can't read them, or mis-playing because of it.

Cost was Y2500, so about $25 USD. How much does it cost state side?

I hate miracle. I hate it the most out of any mechanic ever. I know that there are more technically broken ones (Storm) but none of those involve the no skill insinuated with miracles. I just hate: Oh, topdecked Bonfire/Terminus? Well the game just went a complete 180 in my favor, aren't I good at Magic?


Fucking Miracle

I paid $30 for my prerelease but I also got pizza and soda too, so yeah, most people likely paid about $25.

Not that I'm trying to start something within the clan or anything, just noting an observation. I fully understand Sasky has a job to do, and as far as I know, he's been upfront with us.

Standard pre-release fee was 30 dollars if you didn't pre-register, 25 if you did. What I did was I had pre-registered for the 10am Saturday, showed up at midnight and Friday and payed 30 for that, then in my second release, I sold and Obzedat I opened and turned in the prize packs I won in event 2 to pay for event 3, cause you know, I'm cheap.

I traded a pile of junk for a geist if st. Traft. Should I sell it now or willing retain its value when it rotates. I dunno how how much play it sees in the non rotating formats.

GoST sees modern play, so it won't ever be a worthless card. You could make a few bucks by selling and rebuying after rotation, but not a lot.

It's not that good in Modern. What deck plays it? None that I can think of.

It's played in UWR some and it has some potential to see play in 4 color agro decks. It's a good enough card that it should retain some value long term. I also suppose it's fringe playable in legacy. There was like...1 uwr delver deck that finished top8 in a legacy SCG open. Selling it now probably gets the most money though.

Why would anybody play it in UWR though? As a budget Vendillion Clique? The creatures in that deck are already so fucking good, and Geist of Saint Traft is so fucking mediocre.

I'll post the board later, but suffice it to say, I had like 15 cards I was boarding in matches with this amazing manabase(had like 5 other cluestones. Borded in boros guildgate, a mountain and red cards when I felt like getting crazy).

This Deck went 3-1 even though my bombs where all double splashed. Was my favorite deck out of the three events. I'll post later after I watch game of thrones which just came on.
