Dies to Removal

Yeah. Thing is theory based articles take a few hours to write (eg. Magma jet article was ~4 hours work), whereas articles on deck development (say, "this week do this" or "beating mono black") aren't so intensive, but I kinda need to be playing a lot to have the grounding to write them.

I'd rather just record videos tbh, that's easy money.

DEs and above yeah, aka anything with a positive return on time.

It's the worst feeling in the world when you lose to the derpiest mono red decks due to an extreme case of mana flooding in two games.

And by derpy I mean the guy maindecks Annihilating Fire but no Lightning Strike and Dragon Egg as his only 3 drop. I had to sit back and watch Arena Athlete and Borderland Minotaur take me down one game and Utvara Hellkite in another.

I need a drink.

I didn't look at the prize support for the 8-mans, but noticed a new 3 round Swiss format. Do you know if they're giving extra prize packs as a result of no DEs?

I have no idea what's going on I'm afraid. What's the payout for the 3-round Swiss?

1 pack per round win for the Swiss, at least in Modern where I looked. Good for practice, terrible EV.

Well at least everything is free now, so making a turnaround isn't as big of a deal. You should record some 8mans in the interim since that's all you've got available to you.

Six tix to buy in?

Yes sir

Ah so it's exactly the same as the TMNOs, but without the free cards for going 2-1 or better. Fuck wotc is stingy.

Laser - yeah? I'm sorry.

But it's actually worked for the best. We moved back from Huntsville AL a few months after we had the twins and my wife finished her Masters. This area is much smaller with not nearly as much to see or do but there are a lot of nice benefits to the area, especially if you've lived in the area as long as I have. Plus there are actually a lot of competitive Magic players here.

Is somebody going to attend GP Wien?
Yarpus maybe?

Do those grinders just multiqueue all day and have like 70% win rates? I've never played MODO, but it's pretty cool to hear people are doing well with it. Paper Magic is a hobby, but MODO could supplement a salary nicely:

I'm too poor to buy a real deck on Modo. You're expecting me to travel to Vien?

lol that's like 10 hours by train.

Just because they're in the same land mass doesn't mean they're close.

"Ohey you live in Los Angeles? You must visit New York all the time being American and all..."

Ohey, I live in northern Italy and I'm thinking of going.
It's 9 hours and 24 minutes by train.

Well... have you got any problem with that?

I mean, I've attended a fuckin' STARCRAFT BYOPC LAN in OSTRAVA (Czech Republic) in 2006, go check the distances of that.

Yeah pretty much. Most if them would be 60-65% winrates. The really elite guys are about 75%. My peak was 79% for a couple of months at the start of the year (my heart still yearns for zealous conscripts).

Just to be sure - you mean Vienna?
Hell, it's more of a money business. Sleeping in Vienna would cost me a fucking lot.
Consider that I'd pay 5x more money for that because of currency.

If you mean Warsaw... then maybe. But I doubt it.

Pretty sure zem just curb-stomped a dude on Sally.

Pretty sure I want a link

Beautiful.

I need a gimmick. I can't read anything on that site.

Also, hi.

Get in my belly, gravy

Gravy is the second best condiment, right behind ketchup.

Never been a gravy guy...


sue me.

Sausage gravy is God's gift to mankind.

gravy + fries is our standard drunkfood

Poutine is one of the only reasons I venture into Quebec.
