Out with the old and in with the new #mtgdrip #mtg #mtgjpn #magicthegathering

Every TCG is going to have non-games. Non-games are the result of variance which is something TCG's need. Some people feel like Magic's non-games are worse because the variance comes from the mana system, so a MTG non-game is "you don't play you cards." In reality this is no more of a non-game than some Hearthstone card doing something random to kill you out of nowhere, but Magic takes more heat for it because it feels worse. It's basically the same concept as how in Commander you can Doom Blade your opponent's commander and it's fine, but if you counter it they get salty. The result is the same, but the Doom Blade gives you the illusion that you were actually making progress and doing something. It tricks you into thinking your decisions mattered, but really they didn't. Non-games in other TCG's do a better job of giving you this illusion, to tricking you into thinking that they aren't really non-games because you are taking game actions and doing things. But really they are the same as getting mana screwed.

This has got to be the worst rare of all time, right?

Where do you put ur balls

The Secret Lair Dandân Deck has surfaced. This fan-favorite format is now a fully playable two-player deck built around one unforgettable blue Fish, featuring brand-new Dandân art, from Kelogsloops, for the first time since 2006. Available now through the Chaos Vault 🐟

why is this allowed lmao

@PedroMayCare @sircalebhammer

It annoys me when people act like taking money out of a 401k is the worst thing you could do.

@affinity4anime It is a feature not a bug

The mana system using lands is the biggest flaw of MtG. It's not a unique feature that sets it apart from other TCGs, it is a bug. A barrier of entry for new players and a source of frustration for experienced players getting mana flood/screw or buying an expensive mana base.

@jakeformayor It is kinda bad when Direct is worse then the average seller.

For those who aren't interested in the Highlights Magazine of it all, we have: Only two Forests instead of three ONE total from Unlimited (should have been 11) A random smattering of Revised and what looks like 4th Edition? Wild stuff, folks.

🎵One of these things is not like the others🎵 TCGplayer Direct order from 2/13 finally showed up today and... lmao

People that don’t shuffle their library in between their Mind’s Dire copies are cheating and increasing their odds on flipping land off the top. Every time you shuffle you increase your odds of getting a non land. If someone wants to “shortcut” this process. CALL A JUDGE !!!

@katrinaaaahhMTG Where can I get the missed my trigger playmat?

My friend asked me to teach him how to play MTG. I'm not sure he understands what he's done.

@UsagiKaede1 alibaba.com/product-detail… These are the same sleeves btw.

Still one of my proudest blocks. Anyway, if you are in the market for amazing sleeves from a company not run by a transphobic bigot, check out endgametcg.ca Use code: Kaede for 10% off!

@MesabiMike Glad to see you are still kicking. :D

It's better to be a little more off than a little more on

Rules don't apply to her

@wildstwawberry @caro_irl You can always look up the oracle text

@caro_irl I think it’s fully for weeb reasons. I don’t really get it and personally it sucked a lot getting into Modern and not only having to ask people what cards did, but not being able to read them either

confession: i do not understand why so many mtg players, esp comp grinders, buy cards in languages they do not speak/understand (usually japanese sometimes chinese) is it jsut because we're weebs or is it a flex that you don't need to read the card to know what it does

@MissouriMTG I feel like no one is going to care about Labubu in a year. They feel like beanie babies to me.

I'm tired of metazoo 2.0 pump and dumps

@SmnttMTG The kids don't know

Esper charm target me

@kanokanoon Easy choice
