    @Casual Eddy

    Guy getting wailed on is Gideon Jura. White mage who is invulnerable to physical harm. Leads the Gatewatch, opposing Nicol Bolas and has a curse soul eating sword that can kill Bolas. He's basically Liliana's last friend.

    A really fun thing with digital preservation is when the source code for a game still exists but the compiler used is lost. I think this is the case for Corncob 3D.

    Digital preservation: always hell.

    He's been trying to absorb the Guildpact's power and be able to Planeswalk so maybe he succeeded.

    Urza would totally develop a super weapon that could defeat Bolas.

    Let's just not talk about unintended side effects tho.

    And then there was that one time Yawgmoth took over the Thran Empire by being charismatic and good at magic science but then got banished to Phyrexia.

    I think my fav thing about the next expansion is Sorin and Nahiri are still fighting even though Bolas is like, right there

    Arch I like that no matter what game you're playing, your playstyle inevitably revolves around bugs and monsters and generally ugly things.

    remember when sporks were new and exciting

    Allegedly a voice of reason.
  • Element BrianElement Brian Peanut Butter Shill Registered User regular
    these are flourless cookies, more like peanutbutter oaty fudge so im not saying they wont give you heartburn but they are also different than what you conceptualize as 'peanut butter cookies'

    The only thing I really know about MTG was from a novel I read when I was young.

    Looking it up based on remembering the character's name, Garth, it was "Arena" and apparently it was the first MTG book ever written. So I guess I got into it right at the beginning of the novelizations.

    Anyway, I remember really liking it and then being disappointed by the sequel.

    The Gull and Greensleeves books were a whole series attempting to create a coherent world from existing early Magic cards. I respect that, though they weren't great, and also the kind of anarchist, anti-authoritarian bent of "fuck these wizards who are enslaving and kidnapping people, let's GIT EM"

    Later it is revealed that Garth and etc are in the same setting and they of course meet and argue

    That Bolas looks scary but he's also super vulnerable and if people just try to get him out at the expense of the rest of the board he'll get smashed.

  • BowenBowen Sup? Registered User regular
    I'm actually surprised we don't have an MTG thread in D&D.

    Y'all talk about it more than the olive garden.
