Combination of unpaid maternity leave + medical emergency + insurance backdating and charging for the new plan that covers my wife and daughter + I don’t make as much as my wife.
So yeah, let’s just say our finances look like they got by Soo Mighty’s 5 snapback combo.
Damn, sounds like a really rough break. Congratulations on the kid though.
Baby is a very healthy cutie. All that really matters. :love:
Do you have whole Modern decks you are selling then?
If so can you list which ones?..lol
Complete decks?
Basically pick something and i probably have all of it. No joke, its easier for me to tell you what i dont have than what i do.
@Pertho sorry to hear about the situation, do you have any of the sword which gives protection from white and black?
(Edit: found the name, Sword of Light and Shadow)
I’m not after a playset and am in England so if shipping is a pain don’t bother, hope you make enough money to get through without selling all your decks though.
On a seperate note for anyone playing standard I’m running Abzan counters with Snake, Bob wannabee and the shapeshifter lord as 2 drops (don’t have that ballista money and my Treasure Keepers and W/G 3 drop don’t like them) but I’m wondering if I should switch the lord for Greenwheel Liberator because it does more later and I want to drop Snake or Bob T2 over anything else, reckon that’s a good idea or should I keep the lord in?
Eh I guess I’m looking for the stuff for Titanshift.
So the big things:
Prim. Titan
Scapeshift
Valakut
Was thinking how cheap the deck would be compared to others, but then I was like… Oh yea I need to spend like $200+ for chalice/explosives probably, and my interest tanked lol.
I need a handful of things but mostly I think I’m good. None of it is urgent
I see your points for the parts I did not quote on. This however is something I have playtested enough that I can give a cohesive answer.
This is more of a meta call. Before aether revolt, let’s be honest, the meta was full on aggro. Some decks just flat out invalidated bitterblossom which is incredibly bad for a deck that heavily relies on keeping an opener with BB. Against combo, which was not appearing, I had a clock with bitterblossom backed up by disruption. Going 1 for 1 with discard against aggro decks is fine so long as I ultimately land a trump card…which ended up being something like a t4 Kalitas or MAYBE a turn 3 Tasigur. At that point, I was doing more harm than good running faeries since combo and control were practically absent.
I do like swords, but against aggro it doesn’t do anything when it comes down: can’t block, has no ETB effects, still relies on having a creature available, relies on the ATTACK with the equipped creature to go through unchallenged and to make matters even worse it relied on me damaging the player, therefore swinging at a lili or nahiri was not profitable. Sure, harvester needs a creature to crew it as well but at the very least the bastard could block and gain me life. What good is a sword if the opponent can expend any tiny removal to nullify the mana investment to equip it to a creature? Being faeries, even equipping the creature cannot protect them from removal. Equipping a Tasigur is fine, but Tasigur himself already dodges a ton of removal.
So basically vs Kolaghan’s Command I get hit for virtually the same amount of pain, swords or vehicle. With Harvester, at least I can have something that can not only stop aggro, but also end the game. It kind of comes back to how Faeries needs a threatening one drop or a stronger curve. MB clique would be SO much better if the champion cause+effect was optional.
On the other hand, if the meta slows down and there are much more combo/control decks, then I would take out Harvester and replace it with swords or mistbinds. So long as people are preparing for aggro, that consequently makes swords and MB worse for me.
My hsit is urgent nigga
BUY MY SHIT 
I’ll think about it man, I need 3 Tarns to swap out my Mesas.
@“BIG BAD MOG” one issue I’ve found when I play tokens which also runs Bitterblossom is how common Engineered Explosives is. It wipes your tokens for 0 or it wipes Bitterblossom and Intangible Virtue both at once. You can bring in Stony Silence for it but it’s narrow if that’s all it’s targetting
Stretch but you wouldn’t have stuff on mtgo would you? If be way more for buying stuff on there since that’s what I play on lol…
PT round 1 stuff for people interested…
Oh my nigga I didn’t realize you were being fully serious till I saw the gofundfund me thread. I was once 21 with a young daughter and drowning in endless debt struggling to pay rent.
I don’t got much extra but from the Government thread you should know I am about looking out for people and extending a hand. If you still need to sell and need bread let me know !!! I get you don’t want to unless you really have to(been here way to many times in my youth) but if you really need it let me know. Also sent ya some diaper money…
Trying to sell around 5K worth of stuff, friend of 15 years offers 2K for it.
Let me tell you how massive pieces of shit we have in the M:TG community. I’m serious too; this game has forced people to profit from other’s misery in the worst ways.
eBay or Craigslist is the best way to get close to TCGMarket. Otherwise you’re down to just above buy list which is usually pretty low. :\
that was already basically at TCG played to shit and back.
If I was cashing out, it’d be a different story. It’s more about people wanting to double down on being fuckers. Kinda adds to the conversation we had about the differences between the communities. That thread was right, I didn’t want that shit on SRK but raz0r took it upon himself to make that thread. Turn to people I’ve played with for years and its “Yeah sure, let me fuck you over real quick in your time of need.”
It is perplexing.
Yea having to drop your collection for finacial reasons always seems to bring in scumbags…
When I played the most seriously up until RtR I had a lot of money troubles hit me when I was in the middle moving for school. Ended up having to sell like 5k worth of stuff for like 2k or so,or I would have been living in my car lol.
Have you tried taking your good stuff to a vendor just to see their quote?
Thats the good thing about mtg. My problem has more to do with how even friends seem to wanna make it a point to fuck you over. Same situation with fg guys and none of them were trying to lowball me on monitors or systems.
Think i said before that mtg wasnt really a community in the same way as the fgc. This is just one of those. There are communities in mtg but as a whole, nah son, nah.
Yea, most in MtG want to play salesman and look for the quick deal, regardless of what they have to do…in my experience
