  • Know when to hold em' Know when to mull em' -Part 1   10 years 28 weeks ago

    As far a Gut Shot goes, either the Temur player hadn't gone up the development tree to use Gut Shot yet, or they felt it wasn't necessary. It's possible that the card is only useful when the meta becomes as inbred as the online one has, so leaving it right was the correct call?

    Looking at that modern Temur list, why there is so many 1 ofs and 2 ofs. That and the complete lack of Gut Shot

    I remember that article and I am glad you enjoyed it. The community here is really cool. Even if you don't see eye to eye with some players/writers the beefs never get really bad. Because we all basically share the love of the game and talking/arguing about it.

  • Diaries of the Apocalypse: Tribal Week 203   10 years 28 weeks ago

    It's to avoid back to back regular events, which might get annoyingly repetitive.

    With this deck I can sideboard more aggro, but still it's not a huge pressure, I was concidering vault, but then it would take some spots already taken...

  • Plea for Guidance   10 years 28 weeks ago

    Sweepers and pressure are the typical answers to Superfriends. Especially if they are coming into play without being cast. Perilous Vault might be the trick?

  • Modern Adventures with Tron   10 years 28 weeks ago

    you know paul, one of your articles was the very first article I read when I started playing mtgo again (and reading this website again), you talked about playing someone who wished they had a collection as expansive as yours. I really enjoyed that piece.

    This community at puremtgo has been really nice for me, I enjoy it very much.

  • Modern Adventures with Tron   10 years 28 weeks ago

    Ah that's where you erred. :p Always keep an archive of any deck list you might want to write about. Because you never know.

    Yeah I can think of 4-5 really good alternatives to Kaijin however who knows what Meta it was responding to?

    RE-Tilting: If you know you are, you can deal with it. Find a physical act that you can do immediately and swiftly when you start feeling the ire. And perform it. It should be something that requires some energy but doesn't fuel your anger (like pounding the desk/keyboard might.) [For example, stand up and put your arms over your head until you can't get them any higher...] Take a breath and repeat it. And see if you can playing clearer after that.

    Anger is chemical in nature so if you do something that changes your biochemistry (such as physical activity) you can deal with your anger and the activity should make it possible for you to get some perspective on what is causing the problem.

    I have been known to really lose it, probably much more profoundly than you have (I once threw a deck across the room when after shuffling I received yet another Paris to 3 or so. My opponent kindly asked me to take care of my heart (sincerely). That was a once only affair but it was informative to me as I recognized the inherent immaturity of dealing with frustration that way.)

    "Snide" doesn't even come close to describing my tongue when I get going. :) I am not proud of that but my point is don't feel too bad if you all you do is express your ire with pithy words.

    The rudeness I've seen has almost always been reportable and I have only done that once I think. Most of the time I am perfectly capable of dishing it out so I accept it when others do too. That said it should not be tolerated, especially if your only offense is being sociable or playing a game.

    Keep on writing Joe.

  • Modern Adventures with Tron   10 years 28 weeks ago

    I have since sold off my cards for blue tron, and deleted the deck file, so I couldn't remember my exact list. So I took a random list off the internet that seemed close to what I was running. I assume kaijin is supposed to be anti aggro, but i think bottle gnomes would be better.

    I has meant to make changes to add the few specific cards that I could remember myself using, but in the end, a stock list is probably ok, as RG Tron was more the focus, U Tron was just an example and jumping off point.

    Thanks for reading! I feel like I have a much better handle on using the editor, and my article looked better this time.

    P.S. I forgot to add to my article this: "Follow me on twitter: @josephfiorinijr "

  • Plea for Guidance   10 years 28 weeks ago

    OK, finally had 2 days off, so I managed to play some std dailies. Couple of thoughts:
    - Naya planeswalkers so far is impossible for me to beat (Genesis Hydra even if countered still brings a planeswalker along and somehow they always draw more Coursers, then I have answers to them :P)
    - Jeskai aggro or mono red aggro are tough matchups, but possible to win
    - Resolute Archangel is an all-star, this card lands in my maindeck for good
    - Opposing Pearl Lake can be pain in the butt
    - Probably obvious one - but don't get distracted during the game - had to answer phone from work for 3 mins and timed out on game won (me 22 life, 2 Rams and Keranos in play, he on 2 life).

    If you have some thoughts how to beat Naya planeswakers I would appreciate that, because nothing apart from Hushwing coomes to my mind.
