Time is money. I never fuck around in the classified just to earn an extra ticket.

Around a pre-re/release is a different story. Take advantage of the jacked prices by selling to actual humans.

If I don't needed to turn the pack into tickets quickly and I'm going to be playing for a while, I go to the classifieds first.

Yeah I was looking in classifieds and the best I found was 3.57 per pack. So that's 10 tix and 0.71 in credit. If there's a bot that's better I'll probably turn in 1 pack at this last bot to mop a little of that credit then switch to the better price.

M14 prices are really healthy right now so it's an excellent time to be queuing 8 mans.

I am also playing UB control and have enjoyed it. As far as Planeswalkers, game one you need to counter the ones that matter or useyou Ratchet Bomb. Games two and three you bring in Pithing Needle.

And if that doesn't work, hit them with bomb-ass singleton Bloodgift Demons. (Which I have been doing for a few days now.)

Wow. Just beat a tron player who resolved emrakeaul, and double karn. He goes to combat, I cryptic tapping it, then he karns, exiling a card from my hand, and plays a second karn, doing it again while at seven life with an ostone on board and tapped out. I eot flash in snapcaster mage, play my 7th land, swing and cruel for game. I feel high as fuck right now.
You gotta understand, I love the beatdown. I really do. I always have.

Beatdown is hard, though.

They're 4 player pods, I ended up winning because Howl is a busted card.

howl is one of the best limited cards in the set, and by a fairly good margin.

I might try Superion as a 1 or 2 of just to live the dream, but it's not a reliable game plan. I'd rather have a Rancor or two.

I'd call the deck MagicalChristmasland.Dec.

It'd also include Devastating Summons, Goblin Guide, and Bushwhackers. And maybe some Kiln Fiend/Assault Strobe action for Mega lolz.

Replace Wardriver with more Avalanchers. Fetches aren't necessary, but 1-2 Caverns are. Lastly, I'd probably cut the Commands for Bolt, simply because killing a DRS early is too good.

Also, more Blood Moon in the board.

I would be too. Playing Goblins is living life to the fullest. You'd be lying if you said that you DIDN'T get an adrenaline rush from being in topdeck mode while your opponent is at 2 life and you wait for a Burn spell.

Fucking Goblins are the shit. You aren't a man until you send a brigade of bloodthirsty battle ready green men into the Red Zone while banking on a Burn spell to close out a game. Only true Red Mages understand this.

Let's just say that I won the first game quite easily, then I've faced an RG Tron who just played 43908345 Pyroclasms on me then won the third game while at 1 thanks to a Chalice of the Void that prevented me from playing my burn.
In the last two games (Scapeshift - Kiki-pod) I just failed to be explosive enough.

I think I'll try something different in the future, I've yet to take a grasp on the format and playing an all-in deck is WAY more difficult than it seems, while at the same time doesn't really help you in understanding the format.

I don't know how things go there in the USA, but maybe it's time for you to seek some kind of legal advice.
I mean, right now you're still married and she's being quite abusive, you should try to keep track of it and see if there's any way to have her pay for being such a bitch.

Who would you rather talk to?

1. The people you've fooled into thinking you're the good guy and a victim, or
2. The guy that knows what a pathetic waste of life you actually are?

People like your ex will do anything to avoid anyone that knows that their life is an act and what a horrible person they really are. That's one of the reasons they can't keep friends for more than a few months, generally have bad relationships with their families, and are impossible to get to go to a therapist for more than a session or two.

Just FYI for the future so you don't find yourself back in this same situation again.
