i've just been popping on for a vma draft a week pretty much and winning it so that's pretty fun

i need to find a girl to fuck soon so i can stop worrying about getting my dick wet and start worrying about rupees again.

also, madding, i fully expect you to return to modo when khans gets released and you are finally done with eso

Much peril lies down this path. Tread carefully when trying to find a girl to fuck and then trying to go back to play more magic.

Gah!! I forgot all about down-times since I've been playing Standard 8-Mans for so long

meh I'll shall take my 7th conservative DE finish tomorrow

Pedros, on the 30th of july you won't be able to win THS, JOU or BNG anymore - how long do you think it will take for the prices too go up?

Posted: **Wed Jul 23, 2014 3:22 pm**

8-Man's are not worth it unless you basically don't lose (much).

START TIMES: Fire on demand
LOCATION: Constructed queues
ENTRY OPTIONS: 6 Event Tickets
SIZE: Eight players
DURATION: Three rounds, up to 60 minutes, single-elimination (play ends on first match loss). Each round begins two minutes after all matches in the previous round have completed.

PRIZES
1st: Five booster packs: 2 Theros, 1 Born of the Gods, and 2 Journey into Nyx +2QP
2nd: Three booster packs: 1 Theros, 1 Born of the Gods, and 1 Journey into Nyx +1QP
3rd-4th: Two booster packs: 1 Born of the Gods and 1Journey into Nyx +0QP

I can't recommend grinding vintage or modern Q's with
decks like burn because you'll just have some games where you simply cannot win (from what I heard Soul Sister, Auras and Combos are very common).

I personally only grind standard (Rw burn) cause Burn in standard if played correctly is insane, but I can easily recommend grinding Pauper with mono U Control.

How do I convert packs into tix?

Posted: **Wed Jul 23, 2014 4:08 pm**

You trade them to bots. MDU recommends goatbots.

Posted: **Wed Jul 23, 2014 4:33 pm**

Somebody explain to me how that works please.

Posted: **Wed Jul 23, 2014 5:44 pm**

You basically have to find a bot that buys packs (Goatbot 4 is the one I've been using I think). It will add all the packs you have that it wants, then it will tell you (in the dialog box) how many tickets to take. You take that many tickets, confirm the trade, and you're good to go.

Posted: **Thu Jul 24, 2014 3:02 am**

Yep

Just be warned right now all boosters are on a ALL TIME low, but with the prize structure changing on the 30th I imagine good things (hopefully, I'm sitting on too much product for this too go south for me

).

i think you assholes sat on your packs for too long for maximum greed

I'm just crushing a vma 8-4 a week for max value

Posted: **Thu Jul 24, 2014 6:45 am**

Anyone around willing to let me bum a Standard deck? I'm kind of not feeling like buying into one right before rotation. Or a Modern deck even?

It would be difficult with M15 being launched on Friday, but if your ok with Bx Devotion I can help with that

Posted: **Thu Jul 24, 2014 8:15 am**

I'm playing Bx in paper right now, lol.

Posted: **Thu Jul 24, 2014 8:16 am**

Also, was "that guy," played mono red in holiday cube because phantom points are sweet. I'm 1-0 right now, turns out Moat decks lose really badly to Falkenrath Aristocrat.

Posted: **Thu Jul 24, 2014 8:19 am**

Post the 75 your after and I'll check what I have, anything I'm missing I'm sure the others can cover

Posted: **Thu Jul 24, 2014 8:49 am**

Boo, couldn't beat Jitte even with mainboard Null Rod. Lame.

I sold some of my packs when Theros was ~3, however looks like not enought. I missed 2 times: ~3,4 for 1 evening around BNG standard. ~3,3 for 1 evening around BNG when JOU came. the 2nd time I came back home on a midnight, saw msg from my friend on facebook about ~3,3, went to sleep happy. Woke up, saw theros on ~2,9...

When you look at a past trends, boosters should go up. Why? Because there would be a need for standard cards from Theros. And prices would go up. At that point people would see more value of playing drafts, because prices would be so high, while cost of a draft so low. It was similar with M14 and RtR this year.

I think you shouldnt hoard packs if you need
money for something. In my case it was worth waiting - I didnt want to sell for less than 3,3 if I could manage without selling.

Posted: **Thu Jul 24, 2014 1:14 pm**

I agreed Pedros, hoarding boosters is always correct when your playing stale or eternal formats - its not like you'll need any tickets right away to purchase new decks or anything.

That said from our online team - I'm not sure many people can stay on inf. without selling everything.

how do thundermaw and wheel of fortune not make the cut in the mono red deck? i would have cut the bob and null rod and gone full out

Posted: **Fri Jul 25, 2014 5:32 am**

Beating Jitte is hard. I don't like Thundermaw in aggressive decks, you almost never cast it. :\

I went 2-1 before dropping to go to bed.

Posted: **Fri Jul 25, 2014 5:39 am**

idk, i find that in cube the games go longer and you need big spells to compete against a control deck. jitte is pretty hard for red to beat but i think the thundermaw is way better than the null rod and the bob is harder to splash than the aristocrat. wheel is also just a bonkers card in general. drop a 1 drop, 2 drop, wheel = gg most of the time

Seem to cost 20 event tickets or 35 phantom points... what am I missing?

Posted: **Fri Jul 25, 2014 6:16 pm**

oh, nvm, the phantom points are added automatically.

Posted: **Fri Jul 25, 2014 6:18 pm**

Don't have time before work

Will try to record tomorrow.

How do you get music in your videos MDU? Youtube told me the music I had playing in the background was copyrighted and removed my audio?

Posted: **Fri Jul 25, 2014 9:07 pm**

If you use and/or listen to big label music, they'll do that.

About how to add music, you use a video editor and add it in. MDU recommended Wondershare and I've really liked the program.

Posted: **Fri Jul 25, 2014 9:39 pm**

wow so i just logged into my account for the first time in a couple weeks and discovered a full set of Theros with my boosters packs. i didn't see that listed as top 8 prize for the MOCS. did they bump the prizes and not update the site?

regardless i just got an extra copy of every card in Theros

happy friday for me

Posted: **Fri Jul 25, 2014 9:42 pm**

Thats awesome Kait.

I just meant, what music is OK, which isn't, and how do you know the difference?

Posted: **Fri Jul 25, 2014 9:43 pm**

1x Sealed Theros Set

i was scared to open it thinking it would flood my collection with more gold bordered casual cards that ruined everyones old collections, but i decided to do it and luckily it was just as it said it was

Posted: **Sat Jul 26, 2014 1:43 am**

So the music that youtube flagged was Simon and Garfunkle. Fuck those guys.

Posted: **Sat Jul 26, 2014 2:24 am**

I just meant, what music is OK, which isn't, and how do you know the difference?

If your not a YouTube partner I don't think it really matters, just don't use any major bands or recent songs so that they only flag and not remove your audio (its hit or miss just keep trying).

If you ARE a YouTube partner you really want to avoid even a flag so just use songs which have permissions stamps (these are usually label free music)

.

- - - - - - -

I open a Garruk, Apex Predator in my pool - should I sell now while the hype train is up (cause I think its horrible) or wait until it somehow revolutionizes the format and sell it
then? I also got chandra (my forth one) in the same pool.... (money packs ftw).

Posted: **Sat Jul 26, 2014 5:38 am**

Good pulls! what are the benefits of becoming a youtube partner? How do you go about it?

How do you tell if something has a permission stamp?

Posted: **Sat Jul 26, 2014 5:42 am**

You make money from advertisements, but have to suffer all the annoying rules and regulations.

How do you tell if something has a permission stamp?

Most music don't, you can just ask for permission or rip songs from area's like: SuicideSheeep and NoCopyrightSounds (I also
use indies and foreign tracks, though I've been flagged once or twice for it

).

did my first ever vintage masters draft, lost in the finals when my draws and mana never materialized

my deck was awesome though

survival of the fittest (foil) w/ 2x arrogant wurm, mythic dethrone dragon, fires of yavimaya, fires of xinyu, orcish lumberjack mvp

my deck did everything fun it was built to do in the first two rounds, chaining wurms to survival, using lumberjack to power out hasted dethrone dragons with fires, using fires to save a 4/4 and then casting fires of xinyu off lumberjack to wipe the board and leave me with a brindle shoat token, a dragon and a 6/6 arrogant wurm

it was glorious

Posted: **Sat Jul 26, 2014 11:29 am**

fires of yavimaya is still stupid powerful
