@Oceansoul921 @am_usea No, everyone understood what you were saying and you weren't joking. Saving face after the fact isn't going to win you that match.

@mtgbanding Put Divine Intervention in a Show and Tell deck with Clockspinning called Show and Draw, it pisses people off way more than just winning. Also put Goblin Game into a Burning Wish Depths list for a bingo night with friends to great effect.

@PascalMaynard @wizards_magic I argue they should continue, if commander isn't the most popular format anymore, maybe we can have sets not design with commander in mind.

[Cohner @CohnerTodd]

@bmkibler @Burzolog Isn't that half of the problems in Vintage and Legacy? Cards that become too format defining for them to have action against them so they just ban cards around it? Cards like Brainstorm, Bazaar and Workshops come to mind.

@TheZZielinski @stranglercore @_claypot @Gripmaestro Contemporary dungeon synth has become very on the nose, which is not fault of anyone but if it evokes the feeling of being in a fantasy world of medieval times then who is to say it is wrong to label it that.

[Cohner @CohnerTodd]

@TheZZielinski @stranglercore @_claypot @Gripmaestro Pseudiom on YouTube talks in great lengths about the history of Dungeon Synth, prior to picking up the name Dungeon Synth, it definitely was very much the interludes of metal albums that defined the original songs people would consider "dungeon synth".

@leemcleo I’ve felt that all but the Timespiral Remaster ones felt like proxies of old bordered cards. Between that and to juxtaposition with art that didn’t fit the frame to ultimately feel lazy for me to get behind.

@BobbyTidus @SaffronOlive @jorgecrespotude And I bet you’re expecting a participation trophy when you lose too right? Sometimes you lose hard and move on. It’s not that deep.

[Cohner @CohnerTodd]

@SandwurmFood @depthofend @DGallenMtg You ever use GrubHub or DoorDash? You’re paying for convenience of not needing to obtain it before the event. It’s not deeper than that.

[Cohner @CohnerTodd]

@NotQuotable Based on the replies to this type of discourse, if it's not dirt cheap they think it's unreasonable regardless if there's none on the market.

[Cohner @CohnerTodd]

@NotQuotable Yes it does, why would you sell something online that is not worth the time to put into an envelope and a stamp on it? Both can be true at the same time. You can have so much product and also none of it being sold. It's literally happening as we speak.

[Cohner @CohnerTodd]

@NotQuotable So then how much does the EV need to increase for the average LGS to make money? Hard to say, especially when anyone can sell on TCGplayer keeping prices down since you and I can open our own shop.

[Cohner @CohnerTodd]

@NotQuotable A store would not only need to crack packs, sort, price, and then list their inventory online fill their cases. That takes time and labor, that just is the overhead. Then still need to make profit. It's not EV > Box Value, it's EV > Box Value + Labor

[Cohner @CohnerTodd]

@andrejsprost @TandyMTG No it has not? If it was never a contractual agreement before with the tournament organizer, it was because it was profitable (in the interest of the vendor) to bring cards relevant to format being played. It is now not worth their time. You again are entitled for thinking this.

[Cohner @CohnerTodd]

@andrejsprost @TandyMTG Why is it the vendor's job to make sure your registered deck is at the tournament? Why do you feel entitled to have it that way? It worked in the past because standard legal cards still held decent value, enough where you could make a profit as a vendor.

[Cohner @CohnerTodd]

@sarahceliann @FrankLepore If the main draw to a product is the fact they have shocklands, and they're "printed into the ground", would that be a draw for people to buy said product?

[Cohner @CohnerTodd]

@PleasantKenobi @fffreakmtg @mechalink @SaffronOlive Wasn't the competitive diversity mostly based on Pro Tour Coverage? It was a deck that a larger than 10% of people who play at the PT gravitate to, which would lead to a lot of similar matches and sake of watching competitive diversity be bad. But it was the Eldrazi PT anyways

[Cohner @CohnerTodd]

@PleasantKenobi Why? Disney/Marvel have and will continue to try to push their IP on everything they think that can grow their consumer base and that won't hurt their image. They did it with Fortnite, it only makes sense they'd work with a company like Hasbro. I for one hate it though.

[Cohner @CohnerTodd]

@RyRySamurai @DBoTheGreat @FierceDeity2019 @_Memo_4302 Just fucking scoop and move on. Jesus man, it’s a legal card that can be played, and if you’re upset that it exists and gets cast I can’t help you. Like seek help.
