This was a really well-explained hack, I loved reading this, well done! So fascinating to see that bot logic runs client-side, that the code just creates two 'seats' for players to connect to, and you exploited all that info in a masterful way. Bravo!

that's the face of cold blooded murder right there: He's sitting on a goddamn lower jaw bone. I love this frog. Seems really good in limited.

I'm a big fan of how transparent they've been about mtga development over the past few months, from the dev writeups to the clear messaging when things go wrong.

I'm really happy with the interface to be honest, I was using Voyager up until now but Boost is my new go to!

As someone who lives in Antwerp and works fully remote , but sometimes needs to go to the office in The Hague, this is great news!

Isn't this the type line on all reliquary towers?

Congrats kaiyo!

Nexus of fate can absolutely not come off of the ban list, it's a miserable card now as much as it was back then. Leyline of abundance is also not really unbannable I think. The Crew3 podcast did a nice rundown on which cards they'd like to see banned in explorer/pioneer, and which cards they think can be unbanned. I'm personally hoping for a Karn and Fable ban in pioneer and explorer.

This is by no means an especially good or tested method, but it's what I do. Like you, I start with a larger list of cards that I import to Deckbox. First I trim the cards I don't have the budget for, and then I look aty curve. Depending on whether I have an expensive or a cheap commander, I'll focus on trimming down cards to get a curve that fits well with my commander (e.g. a medium curve with enough low cost creatures and ramp for higher-costing commanders, and a low-to-the ground curve with a few expensive finishers for lower-cost aggro commanders). Once my curve looks semi-decent, I'll make sure that I have a nice mix of removal (both sweepers and spot removal) and evasion, and that I don't have too many cards that don't impact the board. Lastly I check to make sure I don't have too much of one card type so that I'm robust enough against different types of removal. Then I goldfish the game a few times, see if my opening hands and draws make sense, and cut some more cards if needed. I don't really have guidelines for "you need X amount of creatures and X amount of enchantments etc." Every commander deck has a different focus and a different way to build. It helps looking at the 'average deck ' option on edhrec to find what mix of card types most people are using. I also tend to favour cards that have a higher % of inclusion in decks on edhrec.

Looks like the best new sliver they printed, holy moly. The other slivers absolutely suck in comparison

The fact that the Dolfinarium is still allowed to exist puzzles me. They must have had good lobbyists to have gotten of scot-free with this new law.

I joined the MTGzone.com instance because I used to use Reddit for MTG news 80% of the time anyway, andnnow I have a nice local feed for magic the gathering stuff and a federated feed for everything else. It's great!
