Fucking beautiful!

Though I can see that is the "I have no friends left" page of your MTG set, huh? :link
I categorize the pages into deck lists. Been doing that in the meantime until I'm able to double sleeve them and sort them into deck boxes. I have a whole bunch of cards in that binder not even posted in my CCG/TCG thread yet, and I also have a lot stored in a box because I don't have enough binders to go around, and I'd have to set up a dedicated space to store it all.

There's this page too, speaking of decks that will make people want to leave the table. :D

And you're still together! Infinite turns bad! :link

Proof @Crystal is an amazing and forgiving person!
Well, not exactly infinite turns. That would be the nonsense with the voltaic key, and my deck is mainly composed of cards that came out before the nonsense really started happening. It does have a Relic Barrier though. Use it to tap down Winter Orb on my opponent's end step, effectively turning it off so I can untap all my lands. :laugh

Remind me to never challenge you to a game of MTG :link

It also help I mainly play Commander at this point and I don't even have a current standard deck lol

Lol, now I feel bummed out. :p
I'm just kidding. It would be an honor to play a match with you. :)

Commander is fun and definitely one of the easier formats to get into. What kind of commander deck you got going?
I currently have 10 built, and most are fairly modern as I only got back into MTG after the LotR set. So most are upgraded precons. Couple fully made from scratch.

  1. Alania Otter Spellslinger
  2. Altair Assassin
  3. Aragorn Fellowship (this is a "meme" deck with exclusively cards from the LotR set)
  4. Tom Bombadil Sagas
  5. Carmen/Clavileno Vampire Kindred (upgraded precon)
  6. Firkragg Goad (mostly the precon and the deck that will be broken down for parts when Aetherdrift comes out)
  7. Commodore Guff Plainswalker/Superfriends (upgraded precon)
  8. Tegwyll Faerie Kindred (upgraded precon)
  9. Winter Self Mill (upgraded precon)
  10. Yuma Desert/Landfall (upgraded precon)

Trying to get back into playing Arena, actually. Gonna see if I can get it running on XBox via NVIDIA's cloud gaming service. Hoping it goes well!

I've got these so far. Looking for one that might potentially be good to slot Necropotence in seeing as that card is legal in commander. Perhaps Zur would be a good one to cheat out the card.

1: Nicol Bolas, God Pharaoh
2. Yawgmoth
3. Zozu the Punisher (paper)
4. Prismatic Bridge
5. Yarrok, the Desecrated

Arena explodes. lol
It's the special effects from when Nexus of Fate is played. Card is busted as hell, and to make the worst of it, it shuffles itself back into the deck when it hits the GY. And because of this, it's impossible for me to deck myself, meaning it comes to a point in the game where I'm taking infinite turns. So how do I win might you ask? I make big, beefy constructs from Karn.

I'm impressed and horrified simultaneously.

I was able to get MTG working on my XBox through NVIDIA's cloud gaming service. I'm officially back in the Arena, baby! :party

Those skullclamps though.... 🤤
With the original art too from the Mirrodin block. Loved using it in my Affinity deck. Card was insane when it came to providing card advantage. My favorite part was using it when Ravager or another artifact creature was on the field because then you could transfer its +1/+1 counters to another creature after it dies thanks to the modular mechanic.

I only have one Skullclamp and it's currently in my Vampire deck since it's mostly 1/1's with sac outlet playstyle.

And we've fallen SO far from the original topic here... lol

Or have we? I guess we haven't. We've just stopped talking about the moron in the room.
Perhaps we should have a section dedicated to Magic the Gathering? 🤔
