Fair enoughWhy would you sell them?But then why do you own them?
I would just sell them and buy something useful with the money
My cards don't hold any monetary value to me because I have no plans on selling any of them. They're collectibles and I'm a collector. Even if I didn't play eternal formats, I'm not selling my cards.
That's largely due to the way record companies mix the albums not the medium itself, vinyl you cannot do any of the digital mastering tricks they do with CDs because it's an analogue medium and the way it's put on to the vinyl itselfWell CDs do have shit audio because it's compressed to shit
listen to a lossless format instead
What makes you think I spend $500+ on any deck? When you already own any card you'd want to use, decks are free.nFair enoughWhy would you sell them?But then why do you own them?

I wouldn't want to spend 500+ dollars on a deck to have it just lay around but whatever floats your boat I guess
When I get broke I never consider selling my Magic cards. Like I said, as far as I'm concerned, they have no monetary value. (Outside of trading, obviously.) Of course, I've never been broke enough to where I needed to do that.I wish I had the luxury of owning a shit ton of cards.
This guy is the opposite of red Scrumper; he gets better as he posts moreSpending time with her used to make me happy. Now I buy cards to fill the void in my heart.
Would you play it again moving forward? The deck seems quite sweetI finished 4-1-2 on my WMCQ with this crazy deck I posted, it work REALLY well. Good combination of removal, interuption, fast clock. However...
had 2 non intentional draws round 2 and 3. Round 2 was playing vs friend playing jund planeswalkers. Game 1 took like 20 minutes, game 2 like 25 minutes. Mega grindy stuff, numerous back and forth from both sides (putrefy spear in combat, charming token to kill courser, tricks on turn/burn, izzet charm on rakdos return, fighting numberous removal spells etc.) We didnt start a 3rd game.
Round 3 playing vs Mono U. Game 1 I lost in 5 minutes, he had weird into specter into 2 masters, I get rid of all masters tokens (with my tokens with spear etc), however he killed me with this specter and then raptor and familiar. Game 2 took
40 minutes. I got really ahead around turn 5, had 3 goats, ajani, brimaz, spear, dictate, attacked him down to 5 life while I had 40. He however dnt condece but started to put 2 masters, hall of triumph (so killing tokens did nothing and I couldnt overload mortars to get rid of weirds). We played draw go for ~10 turns, he attacking with specter me getting life from goats. He go my spells, I got lands. Finally managed to get overloaded mortars with selesnya charm to kill him. We got 5 minutes, I fast shuffled my agro cards (after game counted had 63 cards in md, didnt have time to resideboard). We both muliganed. I had turn 2 YP, turn 3 RtA into stoke, turn 4 2nd YP and burn his blocker. Got him to 2 on last possible terminate round, he had no board, 2 lands, I had brimaz in hand and spear on top (I had 16 outs to kill him last possible turn, missed everything drawing brimaz). He didnt concede...
I then (and before on 1st round) beat: burn (2-0), black green (2-0), blue white sphere control (2-0) and
black white (2-0). I then had 14 points, had to play last round to go to the top 8. (had really good tiebreakers, I was paired up every round. My tierbreakers were around 70%).
I then lost 0-2 vs Planar cleansing blue white control. Game 1 got him to 2 life 3 times (he used charm lifelink on mutavaults twice) and couldnt find anything in 5 draws to kill him (we were both topdecking, I countered his revelations with izzet charm). Game 2 kept 3 rabblemaster, spear of heliod and 3 lands hand. Didnt do a single point of damage, he had 3 last breaths...
I stayed watching top 8 as my friend (the one I had a draw round 2, he then also got 2nd draw around round 5, managed to get onto top was battling same guy with UW control. He cast 4 thoughtseizes turn 1 and 2 both games, and his opponent had everything, couldnt distrupt or punish everything. Something was fishy...
In semifinals he then got rewarded of game loose by drawing
extra cards. On turn 3 on a draw he had 11 cards total. He passed a turn with 8 cards, 7 visible to an opponent, 8th horizontal kept by his thumb. After someone noticed this and said it to a judge, he shuffled everything (lands and hand) together and said cards were probably sticked together.
I am not saying he cheated in my game or in game vs friend in top 8. He is great player, played really well and optimal. However his reaction was really intriguing (he started to look around asking "who is this fucking squealer", so something might have happened before. vs me game 2 he had 3 Goats, 3 Dissolves (4rd was on a bottom with scry), dispel, 2 negates, 2 verdicts, 1 planar cleansing and 3 last breaths with only 1 divination, 1 jace (drawing 2 cards) and 1 revelation for 4...
Deck was working really well, manabase was awsome. I will try to play black with red and white (dont know if 4rd color is needed, however really liked those negates, turn/burns, izzet charms along Keranos and Ephara. Those
cards just give so much options...)
Maverick/Goblins had other problems already, Maverick has an abysmal Miracles matchup and struggles against Shardless/Liliana of the veil, and Goblins is stone cold to a Batterskull.Legacy was a pretty good format until they decided to ruin everything printing the best creatures ever in blue : delver of secrets and true name nemesis. If the color that features brainstorm and force of will also has access to the best creatures there is no reason not to play blue. In particular true name destroyed other midrange strategies like goblins / maverick that were still playable after all.
You mean pedros right? or did purp play a WMCQ as well?Props to Purp on a solid showing at his WMCQ.
Sounds like the control player was cheating, but in general you want to gather info before going on a witch hunt.
From what you're saying though, sounds scummy.
Probably yes, deck needs some tweeks however.Would you play it again moving forward? The deck seems quite sweetI finished 4-1-2 on my WMCQ with this crazy deck I posted, it work REALLY well. Good combination of removal, interuption, fast clock. However...

Yeah agreed on that oneThat's largely due to the way record companies mix the albums not the medium itself, vinyl you cannot do any of the digital mastering tricks they do with CDs because it's an analogue medium and the way it's put on to the vinyl itselfWell CDs do have shit audio because it's compressed to shit

I believe he was poking at the nature of Legacy / combo, not Tom Ross, who my phone just wanted to call Tom TossI'm pretty sure that's the nature of SnS, and has basically nothing to do with Tom Ross.
I guess I'm kinda like Alex here. I buy powerful cards because I want to own them, and can see myself playing them at some point. And because they're most likely to retain value barring reprints, which I'm fine with. The deck building comes later.nWhy would you sell them?But then why do you own them?
