Don’t they know you’re supposed to take it outside or wait for after class. You don’t just throw down in the middle of the room.

It’s not that Gen X didn’t care, it was that no one else cared. You do have a name, it’s the Forgotten Generation.
“Generation X often is referred to as the forgotten generation, sandwiched between the large and culturally powerful Baby Boomer and Millennial generations.”

The trick is to find one that isn’t just filling their schedules with plastic surgeries.

By not having so many events I need to schedule them 6 months out. You should give it a try, works wonders.

At least credit the original if you are going to do a bad rip off https://explosm.net/comics/kris-gingerbread

A little bit of searching and I found this…Spotify Premium reserves the right to insert ads on exclusive podcasts, and ones that they produce/own. Ads will never be inserted into music streaming.

My best guess would be that since they allow ads for podcasts, they are throwing in Spotify pushed ads on podcasts they own. Do you happen to know if it’s specific podcasts? I would probably unsubcribe if I was randomly getting ads. The only other thing I found was people still getting ads when they were using air play, but that was a desync bug.

You pay for no ads through Spotify, but a podcast is sponsored they place ads in their cast unrelated to Spotify. I know how shitty that sounds and is, but it’s probably the only way those pods are making money.

Teching your deck doesn’t mean who has more money. Not sure why this other person keeps coming here being negative about 1on1 and all that. Teching just means building for the meta and your case the meta is just each other. They might just start playing more hexproof and uncoutnerable creatures, or spells that give protection from a color. That doesn’t mean buying more cards or more money. It just means they might start playing cards that are more pointed at beating specific cards you play. Those kinds of cards wouldn’t be as playable against a larger field of decks but works since it’s you vs them.

That’s awesome! Glad it was helpful even if it was generic advice. Don’t be surprised if your friend starts coming back with some new techs to counter your play style. You have started the arms race in a very small meta lol.

That’s why God had to release part 2 of the bible, cuz he’s such a dick in the first book. Also why Satan rebranded as Santa.

Yea, we are all there to play magic, not shuffle simulator. No reason to slow the game down before it even really started. We all had a good laugh about it, but I def put a target on my head after that.

Yes you are right. Idea still stands, but my wording is incorrect and should be stated as just toughness. Distinctions like this can matter in magic.

I’ve dipped my toes into cedh and have been playing mono black [[k’rrik, son of yawgmoth]]. Playing more of a midrange creature combo than storm. Very glass cannon build, and def has some extremely bad match ups but that’s just how it goes. It often goes off between turn 3-5 if left unchecked. Had a magical Christmas land hand and won turn 1 going second in a 4 man pod. Just reshuffled and moved last in the turn order instead of everyone restarting lol.

Here is some general advice that will get you started and then you can keep making adjustments from there. First off, especially in 1v1 you want to know which deck is the aggressor and which deck is playing more of control. Normally fae play a weird mix of both which is considered tempo, but for the sake of this post let’s label your friend as the aggressive deck and you as the control deck.

Next is knowing threat assessment. Since the two angels you mentioned seem to be the combo you have problems with we will focus on that. A simple start is counter magic. You play a land, pass turn style where you are constantly holding up counter magic for the specific threats, or enablers that would get those threats. You will also play a lot of instant speed spells to take advantage of turns he either plays nothing or nothing you want to counter. These would be creatures with flash and instant speed card draw.

You won’t always have counter magic available and sometimes threats get through so your next option is removal.

Since your problem seems to be indestructible creatures there are two things to do. First are exile spells, and second are spells that give -×/-×. If a creature has 0 base toughness it dies, indestructible or not. Cards like [[tragic slip]] for single target or [[toxic deluge]] for board wipes. Honorable mention is a card like [[killing wave]] that will make him sacrifice his creatures.

Have bronchitis. Got this weird dose schedule for meds, but it’s crazy how much better I feel just 12 hours after starting them.

Maybe your teacher brought the recruiter in to make you realize exactly that 'n stuff.

This seems like another fun commander. Gives me feels of Derevi constantly cheating the commander tax.

Assuming you mean 8 1/2 tails for white correct? That does seem like a fun build around commander with unique abilities. You have piqued my interest thank you.

You know who’s fault it’ll be too, everyone else’s but their own, and the rage machine continues.
