As far as Universes Beyond goes I’ve seen a pretty positive result on the people I play with.

One of my friends who stopped playing after he had his collection stolen a number of years ago started to play again after I gave him a tyranid deck.

One of my friends from work got really into deck building and has been active since lotr and fallout sets. He is also super into Marvel, so he is looking forward to the upcoming sets. My play group at work are also much more proxy friendly after the 30th anniversary proxies set, so I made him a proxy of Kelsien, the Plague themed as Gambit.

Another friend from work has started to play physical magic since getting the Riders of Rohan deck.

And the person I play magic with the most has been building themed decks around pop culture or stories we want to tell for years with me.

I was pretty skeptical of UB before, but I am now more concerned with poor game balance and half baked original stories from WOTC.

I was hoping there was an option for your uncle let you have a playset of dredge skeletons as the intro.

I don’t think there is a lot of reasoning behind the characters or card selection here.

Whatever feels good for you, but generally they tend to rest on your hole like a sleep mask. If you have enough movement to be chafing you might want to look at something with a bit more coverage.

I think it makes sense, but the comment of reviewing the ban list without further bans makes me concerned.

They don’t have a solid track history of handling bans well or timely in other formats. Also recently we had Nadu who was designed for the format that it was just banned in.

Well it is cheap so that means that it is lower power.

Bracket 4 will be for powerful cards like Drop of Honey.

Bracket 1 will be for more balanced cards like Porphyry Nodes.

I felt the same way when I started watching games of 40k. Ended up not enjoying that though.

I definitely don’t understand the short hand for the format like blue farm, but I think this might be a fun level to play at and I’m willing to take a beating.

I was watching some videos by ComedIan and Play To Win on YouTube and was actually considering getting a cEDH deck now that the format is going to slow down.

My gnome warlock got their power from getting married to a fae lord after a drunken night of revelry. Their pact was the divorce settlement and their familiar was their lawyer.

It is so fun to play the straight person around random bedlam.

A spworm!

This is such a well designed commander for the deck. Caring about playing multi type cards enabled delirium, but also all scarecrows are artifact creatures.

Green is very well setup to be able to clear the skies or a use board states with flyers, and black can wipe small creatures and tokens without issues.

There are 16 rooms cards in the set so far. If you get Central Elevator you can tutor room cards, and you can use her to reset that room for repeat searches. Promising Staircase is also an alt win con for her that comes attached to your tutor engine and lets you better set her up for an ETB trigger through surveil 1 on upkeeps.

First tutor would likely be Bottomless Pool so you could pay {U} to bounce her to hand, recast her to refill your hand, and then following turns to reset a bounce engine.

Ripley is looking great!

I’m not mad.

Wotc would probably have another controversy right before release and the resulting backlash would cause it not to have a sequel.

The perfect commander for a gate themed deck. https://youtu.be/tW1ijfPwmCc?si=RaYmYWhFIf7fXot1

Definitely!

In the Web of War and Ogre Battledriver had a baby.

Strange that a gremlin produce falls under the enemy colors for the gremlin’s primary colors.

Yeah you just describe what you want and they will tend to do it. I just get away with walk-ins at JCPenney salons, but if you get particular about your style you can find a stylist or barber that can learn how you like your hair.

My hair was about 3ft long at the beginning of last year. I’d normally go for a haircut every two to four months and ask for them to take two inches off and add layering.

Last summer it was getting too hot gardening with how thick my hair gets, so I asked for the back of my head to get shaved as an undercut about at my glasses line. Hair looked the same when worn down, but I could put it up to cool things down. I had to go in every month or two though to keep it short enough to keep me cool, so every other haircut I asked for two inches off and layering.

I let the undercut grow out from October to June, and had maybe 6 inches of hair? With no layering it looked a bit flat when I wore my hair down.

This summer I decided to get a Mohawk for better ventilation. Asked for the sides to be buzzed leaving about a 4 inch wide strip running from scalp to back of neck, for 6 inches off the longest part of the hair that was not originally part of the undercut, and layering to be added to both the longest portion and what was the undercut.

I typically wear my hair to the side, so it looks like I just have a little undercut and can pull my hair back when gardening to cool off. It would probably look silly if I put up my hair with gel, but after 6inches of hair it really is a pain to put that up. Also I have a kid, so there is no time for extensive styling.

Over winter I’ll probably aim for every two to four months for haircuts since I don’t need the sides so short. Goal is probably 6 inches off the longest part until it levels out, and then just decide how long I want it in that style.
