I've got this self pulled rhystic that I've not had a chance to put in a deck for months

[fervent burrow]

I feel like Smothering would overperform here as mana rocks

This card is funny in Mrs Bumbleflower

[pallid ocean]

It's basically a smothering

[sacred galleon]

it went straight out of my precon straight into my girlfriends bumble deck, yeah

[wide quiver]

Yeah I moved mine out into my bumble deck

How is it like a smothering?

[pallid ocean]

It's smothering if it wasn't free

[wide quiver]

It's when they draw not on their turn

[sacred galleon]

bumble triggers smother on every draw you hand out if they cant pay, but tataru just does it once

[maiden widget]

👀 smothering if you can’t afford $40

[pallid ocean]

Unfortunately

[sacred galleon]

theyre tapped, granted, but it draws significantly less hate

[pallid ocean]

It's already creeping past $20 locally

[maiden widget]

Who ?

[pallid ocean]

Tataru

[maiden widget]

Wait really ?

[sacred galleon]

that tracks, unfortunately lmao

[pallid ocean]

Cards been super popular here

[maiden widget]

That card is in my bulk

[pallid ocean]

It's over performing the card kingdom price, that usually never happens

[maiden widget]

What 3 GC are we running ?

[pallid ocean]

We usually just price CK1

[sacred galleon]

itd be in mine too since i dont run any grouphug decks lol

[pallid ocean]

I'm doing rhystic, tithe and fierce guardianship

Realistically I think force of will is better than rhystic

[maiden widget]

I’m doing Narset, Bolas, smothering

[pallid ocean]

Then you realize how often some people are drawing not on their turn

[wide quiver]

Bolas seems pretty good, yeah

[maiden widget]

Bc 2 of them actually affordable lmao

[pallid ocean]

It's significantly better in bracket 4 tho

Narset is GC because of the very unfun interaction with wheels

[wide quiver]

Yeah, both Narset and Notion Thief are there for that

[maiden widget]

Wait what wheels ?

[sacred galleon]

if i was running GCs id probably go bolas, force of will, and fierce guardianship

It's not just the draw, it's the discard

[pallid ocean]

Honestly, there are some cards that I question belongs in a b3 yshtola list

[sacred galleon]

yeah you kinda wanna run as many of them as you can if youre committing to it, but they felt a bit too inconsequential in this deck when i tried em

[pallid ocean]

Ghastlord, sigil of sleep etc

[maiden widget]

So you draw 3

?

[sacred galleon]

oh its much worse

[wide quiver]

Yeah sigil of sleep seems so oppressive

[pallid ocean]

No, everyone discards one

[sacred galleon]

you make everyone else drop a card too

[pallid ocean]

But the cereal version of that card lol

[sacred galleon]

[pallid ocean]

So the joke is that yshtola is secretly a suicide deck

[maiden widget]

I won’t go for it

[pallid ocean]

I haven't included all the black cards that cost life yet

[maiden widget]

Honestly early game of this deck sucks

[pallid ocean]

I think I can easily get 30-40 sources of self inflicted dmg

[sacred galleon]

i mean shtola dies like 4 times in the game, this checks out

or something along those lines

[pallid ocean]

But I know some players are choosing to move away from more pain since they get targeted alot

ive been just instinctively pitching sorceries that i dont want to immediately cast in case i draw emet so he can do it for me

same

5 cmc is steep

After a board wipe late game ?

He’s funny

[pallid ocean]

Yet he does little early

[maiden widget]

Don’t draw him early

i guess he can help fuel emet tbf

ah i was lucky and pulled a full art foil of her, dodged the surge, but ill absolutely take what i got

[pallid ocean]

It's especially nice since it came from my first ever pack

I also have the alt art zenos to put inside

Is it really that good, not really

Is it still a fun add, yeaa

Zenos is suck a meme card as commander

[pallid ocean]

From as horrible my pack value was, it did have the bangers I actually wanted

It's 10/10 flavor

[pallid ocean]

I've noticed a sudden upsurge in vivi demand

[maiden widget]

It’s a strong commander

[pallid ocean]

Considering the last 2 weeks of complete underpricing and negative demand

[sacred galleon]

i could see him fitting in cutter prowess decks

[pallid ocean]

All the names of people I know in my local FB groups being massive traders started doing WTB posts

It's very strange considering literally impossible to sell vivi the past 2 weeks for near CK pricing

[sacred galleon]

the fact that you can do stuff like monstrous rage -> offer you cant refuse to trigger a cutter monk and still have a bunch of mana left over from the treasures and the ability probably means he can do some dumb things

[maiden widget]

I’m hunting down a non foil fullart yshtola

[pallid ocean]

Still $150

Prob couldve traded that vivi for one

Can't rmb how much foil vivi is for the borderless tho

I know yshtola was around $150 a week ago

Honestly, FF singles are in a very weird place rn

[pallid ocean]

And that you have a better chance buying literally lottery tickets

The extra sheet reprints wise aren't close imo

Rystic is nice though

[pallid ocean]

There are also just more chase cards like the elvish font etc

Rhystic is basically what they put into a bonus sheet to make it look good now

It's never getting a reprint

[maiden widget]

The dragon one also good no ?

[maiden widget]

Steal from LCS ?

Or pay for a bundle of a shitty set

[lusty igloo]

[pallid ocean]

Hmm in retrospect, would boseiju be a good representation of stormblood

Just ask your LGS

most of them have a land tray that's full

They usually have too many anyways

[maiden widget]

They would love for you to buy Aetherift Bundle for $40

[pallid ocean]

The finish line bundle?

It's a decent deal tbh

[maiden widget]

Lol yeah

[pallid ocean]

2 collectors

[maiden widget]

No

[lusty igloo]

those energy things give me the ick

[maiden widget]

The regular

[lusty igloo]

i dont like the theme

[pallid ocean]

The fractured foils have been growing steadily in price since nobody wants to open the set

Oh regular kinda sucks

[maiden widget]

The one with no collector

[pallid ocean]

The set is just ketramose

[maiden widget]

I want a set of land from LoTR

That said, I'm a proud owner of a piss foil aetherspark

[lusty igloo]

i luv aetherspark

[pallid ocean]

I opened jt

[lusty igloo]

im thinking of running it in my eldrazi

I miss FF secret Lair

I’m crying

[pallid ocean]

Tho my entire secret lair experience has been it's not worth the time or money

[lusty igloo]

for spongebob?

[pallid ocean]

I was late and was happy to not spend the money

[lusty igloo]

i didnt like FF secret lair

art wasnrt pretty

[maiden widget]

The only one that worth my time is Deadpool

[pallid ocean]

Reprint value was really good tho

[maiden widget]

I bought it for a deadly rollic

[pallid ocean]

The only secret lair I own is the Sheldon menery one

And I got it for close to MSRP aftermarket

I really really want a holiday gift bundle

But it seems impossible for MSRP rn

Sad because that FF16 art is one of my favorites

I was planning on getting that yshtola playmat but it's too expensive

But my LGS had this for half the price

[lusty igloo]

cuteeee

[pallid ocean]

They split up one of the eeveelution premium box sets

I was like that's really cute

Fk it I'll buy it over the yshtola one

[lusty igloo]

what does the yshtola one look like

[maiden widget]

The Blue yshtola prolly

[pallid ocean]

Yea

It's that and the nights blessed art

[lusty igloo]

oh ehhhhh

art on eeveelotuions is better

[maiden widget]

I bought the crux of fate playmat

[pallid ocean]

Yea

Is that the FF16 art?

[maiden widget]

It’s 14

[pallid ocean]

Oh right the hraesvalgr and nidhogg one

[maiden widget]

If you run eye of nighog you should run crux of fate

[pallid ocean]

It's the holofoil playmat so it's even more expensive

Plus Eevee is cuter

So I just bought what gave me more dopamine

[maiden widget]

I need emet playmat

But it’s $40

[pallid ocean]

The full playmat is really nice

[maiden widget]

Eh I’m a Pokémon professor so I have too many pokemon mats lol

Return each nonland permanent that's not historic to its owner's hand. (Artifacts, legendaries, and Sagas are historic.)
History cannot be changed, and the Animus is not kind to those who try.

[pallid ocean]

I think it's underplayed in yshtola

[lusty igloo]

i run it in my urza deck and im disapponited by the number of times it doesnt do anything

all eenemy commanders are legendary to boot which already hurts a lot

[lusty igloo]

or a delney + yshtola. it's just rly gud

the problem is they can also pick what htey keep

but it's 3 mana

so all in all still a top-tier choice

[pallid ocean]

It's pretty pod dependent

I like it since my list runs more legendary creatures

The card is good but such a flavor fail for the deck

Slaughter the strong that is

Idk if toxic deluge is worth it in the deck

It hits yshtola just as hard

But I've heard blas edict is also good

When she's not board so...

[lusty igloo]

i think the bosardwipes we're running with are already enough

we dont need more there's already like 6 good ones

Farewell, Promise of Loyalty, Single Combat, Slaughter the Strong, Starfall Invocation, Tragic Arrogance

cyclonic ig if you wanna use another gamechanger for it (i wouldnt)

[pallid ocean]

So I'm of the mind that farewell isn't good

In that it just ends up prolonging games

[lusty igloo]

it's needed at sometimes

[pallid ocean]

It's definitely the best board wipe

[lusty igloo]

idk just a few of teh games it was my only out

i had 2 of those. won one, lost the other. game was definitely prolonged though

[pallid ocean]

Ik it's a hot take

[lusty igloo]

one game i was vs someone who copied 12 of my solitary confinements, drew their whole deck almost, and copied their commander 72 times. nothing else wouldve saved me

other was someone who was playing to win through insanely largre amount of tokens and artifacts

yeah it's a fine take

i still the lost the first game

they played a card where they had the option to not draw if they wanted to. their commander forces everyone to draw. i got milled

[pallid ocean]

That said, my main deck is a boardwipe less token deck

[lusty igloo]

i also had solitary confinement and they couldnt get through it

oh lol

i run like no artifacts

[pallid ocean]

Farewell does get better if you lean heavily into either artifacts or enchantments

Since you choose all but them

Maybe no graveyard if you run emets

[lusty igloo]

you mean lean lightly?

[pallid ocean]

Nope, actually heavily

[lusty igloo]

dont you just exile all your own artifacts/enchantments

[pallid ocean]

Like a ton of artifact mana and synergy

[lusty igloo]

i though it's better if yo dont have much of either

[pallid ocean]

You choose all but the one you have

[lusty igloo]

oh

true

[pallid ocean]

It's also why I'm pro artifacts over enchantress since enchantress side doesn't have mana

sorry cut off the bototm part

im wondering if i should add papa if i already run citadel + top

Why not imo

[lusty igloo]

in my head the 1 dmg is pointless

if i cast one cmc 3+ i do 3 dmg

It's a slow builder

if he was 2 dmg he'd be an insane include

but 1... idk about that

[pallid ocean]

It's also 2 cmc and it's a sac

[lusty igloo]

are you running papa?

[pallid ocean]

I cast my mana rock and it pings 1

I run it since I play a more FFXIV flavour focused deck

[lusty igloo]

ah that's right

ill just add it to my deck and see how it performs

rather than judging from theoreticals

[pallid ocean]

I however do not run citadel and top

[lusty igloo]

do u believe other gamechangers are stornger or other reason

[pallid ocean]

Strongest imo is fierce guardianship, smoth and force of will

[lusty igloo]

thats if ur lucky
