BraveOthello: Dang it there are some many different definitions of draft I can't decide which one to make a pun on
NorthstarTex: yep
3schr: Are we having draughts?
Juliamon: it is heckin wimdy here
couchboyj: Better. But I dug the loud, cause its Big Giant Circles
BraveOthello: @3schr that was my first instinct but I couldnt make it work right
NorthstarTex: the windchill here actually was abrasive for me today
3schr: *Geralt Voice* Winds Howling
BraveOthello: @3schr WHAT?!

couchboyj: Time to learn MtGO and draft cube!

3schr: I have a room at the MGM Grand so I can take the monorail
MarylandJutsu: i see we out here drafting?
Cptasparagus: bet everything on black
RockPusher:
Snacks!
Cptasparagus: Koma is op
Lord_Hosk: Clearly you take the rare, if it wasn't the best card in the pack they wouldn't have made it rare
Diabore: koma is a good first pick
Juliamon: Koma is fun
TheDevil_Risen: ooo Simic nonsense
Lord_Hosk: (Tell you)
tsp397: Grue
iris_of_ether: Simic land numbers go up

BrowneePointz: we got cut green in pack 2. it happens
ghizmou: the hyena is much stronger than it seems
Juliamon: Green's just been real meh in these packs
KingOfDoma: WitPro?
Flyingdelorion: Hm, can we pivot to Izzet here?
KingOfDoma: Or splash for Etali?
patrick_stonecrusher: Aberration is great splash
ghizmou: a turtley turtle
Flyingdelorion: Mystic is a good pick I think
ThePixelSavage:
@KingOfDoma this sounds like 0-3 milkshake bracket talk
Flyingdelorion: thespian is also very ok
BrowneePointz: ooo rec sage

LurkerSpine: heck yeah grow
BrowneePointz: 2nd grow
Lord_Hosk: You can never ramp too hard
ghizmou: so much growth during this draft
ghizmou: i think we do
BrowneePointz: I’d cut the wall
BrowneePointz: you have two grows and two bushwhacks
QuixoticScrivener: cut two lands (don’t)
ghizmou: neither of those cards block the aggro
BrowneePointz: I’d cut banner or wall before a grow or bushwhack
ghizmou: good choice of land
Flyingdelorion: GLHF Cori!
MarylandJutsu: Owl vs Cat man
ghizmou: they didn't have to cast anything this turn, so I like dropping more creatures on the board

ghizmou: we could tell James was around, we kept drawing lands
Flyingdelorion: Hello James!
BrowneePointz: OH its not a bug it was the tip of the mic XD
UtilityPunk: Foundations is funtimes
micalovits: Standard is fun
BrowneePointz: Standard is real good
ghizmou: standard is the widest it's ever been
Flyingdelorion: Standard is fun!
BrowneePointz: hopefully 6 sets this year doesn’t screw it up
RockPusher: Large standard hopefully means room for some silly builds
micalovits: Just do like me, play mono Red when you don't want to think
couchboyj: Standard is in a real good spot and has been for a while
Flyingdelorion: You can play goblins in standard James!
ThePixelSavage: oh you just reminded me why I lost ALL interest in standard
UtilityPunk: Cloud limit breaks to beat Spiderman and Kingpin partnered
TheDevil_Risen: I play arena at work (std)

Cptasparagus: its a great tablet game
micalovits: I dunno, Pandemic still feels like last year to me...
tsp397: I don't like time
ArtOfStuttering: Should be fine, MTGA isn't super heavy.

micalovits: If you really want to be pedandic, it is 4 years and 9-10 months
BrowneePointz: gives us a couple grace period months
TheWorstGamerNA: feb 2020 is when pandemic started
UtilityPunk: And the early waves of covid were late 2019
LurkerSpine: ^
Flyingdelorion: March 2020 o almost 5 years
KingOfDoma: Can time... stop for a bit? So we can all breathe for a second? I'm so tired...
TheDevil_Risen: @ghizmou was fun, its a good game
RockPusher: Oh dear
BrowneePointz: yea the first inklings of global pandemia is 2019 around October iirc
Flyingdelorion: Oh no....
micalovits: No, not my back James!
RockPusher: James reminding us all to take our back pills
BrowneePointz: put that in the moon?

DoomBringerIL: GTA 6 is this year @LoadingReadyRun
BrowneePointz: we aren’t sure cuz it’s been in dev since 2020
RockPusher: yes, "Tron: Ares" is what I was thinking of
BrowneePointz: so Intergalactic COULD be this winter or next year
ItsThugDimmadome: @Lord_Hosk Yeah, entering. My back only hurts cuz my squat form needs work lol.
PhuzNutz: I saw a 50-somerhing farm guy and his dog in a truck in southern Minnesota yesterday at the Kwik Truck with a NIN sticker on the back window. I had to do a triple-take and throw up some horns
Kentosaurus: people just hoping it's this year
Flyingdelorion: Same James
RockPusher: Vice City was where GTA peaked for me
kynelwynn: @LoadingReadyRun Since Innistrad remaster is this month, any insihts on PPR?
micalovits: Wait, a second one?
Lord_Hosk: I haven't been into GTA since it went first person
BrowneePointz: the story of 5 was good but it came out so long ago it’s time for a fresh one
RockPusher: cruising around with 80s music blaring
BrowneePointz: James you gonna wear a racing jacket for Aetherdrift?
kynelwynn: Thank you, James!
Mazrae: they are playing double dragon??? wait i might be thinking the wrong game type lol
DoomBringerIL: proved!
RockPusher: Gotta wait for the corporate bureaucracy to churn
Cptasparagus: @James I am now remembering 2005 sitting in the back of my friend's '01 charger listening to Through the Fire and the Flames on Inhuman Rampage by Dragonforce thinking it was the coolest shit ever in 9th grade
Bruceski: I humbly request cosplay for the Final Fantasy PPR. The more ridiculous the better.
micalovits: Uh oh
Earthenone: so we get to to a belt draft for final fantasy set like we did hats for innistrad right?
BrowneePointz: screenrant is not a valid source
TherapyforNarwhals: Idk maybe they pull a Bethesda w Fallout 4
BrowneePointz: it’s clickbait
iris_of_ether: I feel like I've recently found a level of hell below clickbait: machine-generated clickbait
BrowneePointz: anyways what they said James. yall should do Thrift Shop Cosplay for Final Fantasy
BrowneePointz: it would be REALLY funny if
Lord_Hosk: Imagine
Lord_Hosk: Dragons
BrowneePointz: funny*
micalovits: Living the Dragon Dream
Earthenone: TWO dragons? in this economy
RockPusher: easy enough, just buy *all* the belts
bjergmann101: All the Belts!!!
Gekyouryuu: So $20 worth of belts, gotcha
BrowneePointz: Id swap the wall
itira: im not sure 20 bucks would get you much at value village these days :))
DoomBringerIL: no cosplay leftovers from friday nights shoots? @LoadingReadyRun
RayFK: Final Fantasy Fans have like 3 jokes total
RockPusher:
RockPusher:
chat is nothing if not derivative
Lord_Hosk: I feel like $20 isn't enough when a pair of pants is like $15 and a belt is 10
ItsThugDimmadome: That gets yiou 2.5 t shirts for the ones near me.
RayFK: Rock is best pet
BrowneePointz: look if Final Fantasy didn’t wanna get made fun of for belts then Nomura could cool his jets
micalovits: Puppet Jace also is pretty good....
Murderface9797:
i remember when imprison on the moon was a rare
Gekyouryuu: @rayfk yeah, but the other two involve a sword to the back or the Italian senate, so those are inappropriate
micalovits: I know, that why its good
DoomBringerIL: ppl underestimate but beholder pet is GOAT
TheDevil_Risen: Rocky is my favourite pet
Lord_Hosk: Didn't you run Puppet Jace skin in Minecraft?
BrowneePointz: Also god I hope Vivi breaks Legacy
RockPusher: Watched the most recent season of "What If?" yet James?
BrowneePointz: although out of all the Final Fantasy characters that might be unexpectedly accidentally broken in Magic it’s PROBABLY Cait Sith
micalovits: I would rather play a dude
BrowneePointz: it’s the weakest season
BrowneePointz: Skeleton Crew tho? show slaps
Lord_Hosk: The first season was kinda fun... then they tried to do like too much continuity between the episodes instead of letting it just be weird.
RockPusher: I should watch Andor
BrowneePointz: oh yea Andor Clears
BrowneePointz: but Skeleton Crew is delightful and campy and a HUGE BREATH OF NEEDED FRESH AIR
TheDevil_Risen: in magic news, my Fogliokens from the latest kickstarter arrived yesterday, their super fun!
TheGr8Mango: I didn't like the Andor character or Rogue One - so, I'd been avoiding it. Is it *actually* worth it?
RayFK: And/Or
BrowneePointz: absolutely Mango
DoomBringerIL: severance season 2 is only 2 weeks awayyyyy
BrowneePointz: I think it’s quite possibly the highest quality Star Wars thing with the most important things to say since maybe the old movies
Cptasparagus: AND they can't jump the shark with Andor because we know how it ends
Lord_Hosk: I love all the Star Wars Youtubers who are like "Wow, Skeleton crew is so much fun you should all give it a shot" When they spent the past 6 months craping on it "Its going to be bad... it been delayed disney must hate it... more woke Star Wars for babies BOOOO!"
RayFK: Warden
RayFK: Card draw
Cptasparagus: @Lord_Hosk Star Wars is already for babies! win win!
TheGr8Mango: @BrowneePointz Mkay - I might just give it a shot then, thanks.

NorthstarTex: the wall can stop that big thing...once...
djalternative: James, what are your thoughts on Star Wars Visions? imo it’s the show they should be unashamedly stealing from for the movies because that’s where all of the best ideas are
Saintnex: new year, same curse
RockPusher: I appreciate this LRR-shaped corner of the Internet that eschews rage-bait whinyness that is some much of Internet "discourse" nowadays
KingOfDoma: It is an objective fact that people saying that "Star Wars is woke now" are not paying attention or are willfully ignorant. IT'S REBELS FIGHTING AGAINST AN EMPIRE, PEOPLE
ghizmou: we need government aid to help this wurm open it's business
QuixoticScrivener: oh, but it has more text.
matthaus_c: 7/7 for 6? what is this, Modern Horizons?!
RayFK: That was the anime ones I think
RockPusher: the Anime
BrowneePointz: Visions had a couple good ones but also some ones that were…rushed
Murderface9797: animated shorts
Lord_Hosk: Visions is their Anime inspired
Cptasparagus: its Star Wars What If
Earthenone: it was the anime made by diferent studios per episode
BrowneePointz: It was the anime anthology
RayFK: Secret Level
matthaus_c: Star Wars Vision is a single blue mana to Draw a card and Scry 2
RayFK: haven't seen it yet
TheDevil_Risen: not yet
BrowneePointz: Secret Level
BrowneePointz: yes
kynelwynn: yes
TheDevil_Risen:
have not seen Secret Level, been working 17 days in the last 18
Earthenone: usagi yo-jedi?
TheDevil_Risen: im at work now haha
Mazrae: wait why is that wurm 14/14 now
Kentosaurus: isn't the rabbit a character from the old marvel star wars comics?
BrowneePointz: Usagi Qui-Gon YoJinnbo
djalternative: animated show where they gave each episode to a different animation studio and just let them go wild no holds barred with Star Wars
itira: agree with you there cori. thats the only episode i watched too
matthaus_c: we could have drawn a Simic Lava Axe... that... deals... 7?
kynelwynn: The Warhammer one is very Warhammer
BrowneePointz: James, they are making a Metroid Vania based off of that
sausecoder: Pac Man one was super dark
sausecoder: The Mega Man one needs to be its own movie
TheDevil_Risen: Dune Ladies?
Lord_Hosk: Im watching this group of people stream Magic the gathering and talk about pop culture and thats sparking a little joy
BrowneePointz: weekly reminder to check out Delicious in Dungeon and Dandadan
RayFK: Ah, the Ted Lasso approach
RayFK: Watching a show where people fucking TALK to each otehr
iris_of_ether: I finished reading the Delicious in Dungeon manga and second the recommendation
korvys: I haven't started it yet, but I'm really excited to watch Man on the Inside
Earthenone: Man on the Inside was the onewith the star and creator of the good place right?
korvys: Yes, Ted Danson
micalovits: I like the Gnarlid
Kentosaurus: man on the inside is very good
Cptasparagus: Stephanie Beatriz
RockPusher:
Stephanie Beatriz is like the anti-rosa
Lord_Hosk: I watched the Bon Jovi docuseries, and my big take away was, Wow, Richie Sambora must be chuffed that they replaced him with 3 people.
BrowneePointz: she’s also Mirabel in Encanto
KingOfDoma: Got a friend who worked on Man on the Inside! Watch it so she can work on another season!
Cptasparagus: its got Lisa Kudrow and Ray Ramano
matthaus_c: keep friend employed!
BrowneePointz: oh yeah, speaking of documentaries, James did you watch The Remarkable Life of Ibelin?
Cptasparagus: No Good Deed
Cptasparagus: I watched the trailer but it didnt spark joy
BrowneePointz: Highly recommend, especially if you used to play World of Warcraft
RockPusher: I should check out Time Bandits if only to see what became of the filming they did around the corner from my office
The_Color_Twelve: the same deviled egg
BrowneePointz: It will have you in tears though
Cptasparagus: i've had enough Ray Romano for one lifetime I think
Earthenone: somethine something hearthstone
micalovits: When Hearthstone dies?
BrowneePointz: that’s my guess for the final set this year
TheWriterAleph: anyone remember the WoW tcg?
kynelwynn: Would it? Would it?
theamc2000: there is a tcg in wow?
iris_of_ether: We had some boxes of the WoW tcg but sold it off on eBay some years back
BrowneePointz: like legit James my big three guesses for the final UB set is Star Wars, Warcraft or Elder Scrolls
Cptasparagus: I found a longbox of the Icecrown set from WoWtcg
Cptasparagus: the other day
RayFK:
Cptasparagus: im betting its Ponies
Serpens77:
bold of you to assume there will be a "final" UB set
KingOfDoma: I'd laugh if the mystery UB set is Power Rangers and no, it's not going to die an ignoble death. Perfect environment for the Morph mechanic to come back...
kynelwynn: It's almost guardanteed to be Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones
BrowneePointz: I said this YEAR Serpens
micalovits: I could see the Elder Scrolls, but the other two having their own games sorta put them out
TheWriterAleph:
i think it would go for the people they want to sell cards to
TheDevil_Risen: Bronies went nuts on both Ponies drops tho
jpost042: six?!
Serpens77: @jpost042 yes, 6
kynelwynn: Six -
EJGRgunner: them all being Standard is new
kynelwynn: standard, is new
TheDevil_Risen:
so many sets
Serpens77: 2024 had 9 sets iirc? So this year only having 7 is a reduction
kynelwynn: And theUniveres Beyond also being Standard is new
BrowneePointz: Aetherdrift, Tarkir Dragonstorm, Final Fantasy, Edge of Eternities, Spiderverse and ???
themossybeard: @BrowneePointz spongebob
Lord_Hosk: My big guess is Magic Content creators Universes beyond. Friday Nights Cards BAAAYBEEEE
arkham1981: I still think it would be neat to see something from Sanderson. We know hes a magic fan. It would be fun to see UB sets that are based in other fantasy writters worlds.
TheDevil_Risen:
BrowneePointz: I want to see one of the good swords in the secret lair as his spatula
micalovits: Sanderson would be sick, but doubt they would do a full set though
kynelwynn: He's still Mormon, yes
BrowneePointz: yes, he still tithes to the Mormon church
micalovits: I mean, he is still a Mormon yes
BrowneePointz: He’s cool, but he still funds the Mormon church
Jillexie: No he doesnt
RockPusher:
Lord_Hosk *waits on the release of "Lord Hosk, Jokester Emeritus"*
Gekyouryuu: Rav Remastered, karlov, tj, mh3, commander masters, bloom, dusk, so 8 at least
ItsThugDimmadome: Welp
EJGRgunner: Commander MAsters wasn't 2024
brainbosh: He doesn't seem to have any, he just hasn't contradicted the church he is a part of
Gekyouryuu: Sorry, 7
themossybeard: he could write better lore for them
Flyingdelorion: and foundations
Gekyouryuu: Typo
Serpens77: @Gekyouryuu I think the "9" figure also includes Assassin's Creed
Bruceski: We're not talking JKR "the money I make off my IP is an endorsement of my views" levels of problematic, but everyone draws their own line on what they want to support
anyGould: Have they done GI Joe? Feels like a big Hasbro cow they haven't cashed yet.
Gekyouryuu: Oh, right, foundations and ass creed
BrowneePointz: no Masters cuz Horizons last year
Cptasparagus: it has packs so you COULD draft it
Serpens77: ok, maybe it was 9 "products" not sets
Diabore: as far as we know right now
RayFK: but hey how about those Jays
kynelwynn: Ass Creed wasn't draftable..and those packs only have 9 cards in them
offbeatwitch:
they did a reverse commander masters last year by banning jeweled lotus
ItsThugDimmadome: Which card's getting the flavour text "My leg!"?
Gekyouryuu: Oh, right, masters was the year before. So we count Fallout as a set, since it's a set's size?
BrowneePointz: hear me out, Library of Alexandria or Tabernacle as the Krusty Krab
Bugberry: there was also the Ass Creed precons.
BrowneePointz: there were no precons
BrowneePointz: it was like 75 cards
RockPusher:
now WotC just need to announce something big before TTC comes out
kynelwynn: James' definition is the word Wizards uses for set, yes
BTownMC: fallout had awesome commander decks
Cyberegg: There are lots of products, some of them are sets
BrowneePointz: it had 100 cards that’s what it was
Earthenone: yeah i mean who could sit down and draft mystery boosters
BrowneePointz: so less than half a normal set
TheDevil_Risen:
haha like i said, so many sets, so little time haha
micalovits: It also makes the Terror cheaper!

Cptasparagus: ive been playing a lot of Alesha in standard with some raid gobbos its fun

Earthenone: i think gobos are in the forever standard legal product
Earthenone: like krenko and co
The_Color_Twelve: they didn't use it for some reason
Bruceski: or sac a treasure token
Cptasparagus: @Earthenone it is. I dont want to sound like a jerk but they are currently playing that product with Krenko in play XD
QuixoticScrivener: net deck like a pro
EJGRgunner: you want t:goblin
RockPusher: uncommon I find to be the sweet spot for the meat of deciding the deck
accountmadeforants: I'd go for the button to the left of the mail button to get a slightly better layout for browsing
TheWriterAleph: the goblin disrespect. you should always mind your goblins
Cptasparagus: put in all the goblin planeswalkers for sure
Bugberry: breeches is really good.
RockPusher: pfffffft good decks

Diabore: HOL UP BALL LIGHTNING???
Cptasparagus: omg they reprinted ball lightning lol
Bugberry: and Typal lands? like Cavern of Souls.
BrowneePointz: Sorry, I type out two burst lightnings instead of 24 drops and a full four lightning strike
BrowneePointz: typod*
TheDevil_Risen:
and you don't need 24 lands in a mono deck
Kentosaurus: 3 squee feels good
Flyingdelorion: Some decks also play Urabrask's Forge
LurkerSpine: 24 lands is probably too many
RockPusher: Mono red with the Arena shaper, maybe get away with 16 land?
Fanklok: I don't see how what you want has anything to do with chat building this deck
mastershake29x: what's the non basic land hater?
RockPusher: plus low curve
space_held: torch the tower
BrowneePointz: 3 squee, 2 krenko and forge is good cuz board wipes
QuixoticScrivener: goblin oriflamme?
Flyingdelorion: Frenzied goblin?

GasCityGaming: goblin surprise?
QuixoticScrivener: two m
Lord_Hosk: Do you want good, or do you want goblins?
BrowneePointz: You’re thinking goblin bombardment and it is not legal
Azbazel: Gleeful demo
djalternative: search for “burn together”
QuixoticScrivener: krenko’s call?
Bugberry: there’s that Red enchantment that us basically Bomat Courier.
GasCityGaming: there's the 4 mana one that does 5 but costs less based on attacking creatures
Azbazel: You get three goblins if you destroy one artifact you own
djalternative: the adventure is a fling
space_held: witchstalker frezy for removal
BrowneePointz: 3 strikes, cut a couple lands and put in wolfstalker frenzy

Azbazel: Impact tremors
Bugberry: Cavern of Souls is in Standard.
QuixoticScrivener: volleyball veteran, goblin negotiations

BrowneePointz: I’d do 20
Azbazel: Or war leaders call
Loooooony: Goblin Negotiator maybe?
Cptasparagus: you already had 4
Flyingdelorion: frenzy is a good pick as well as Brownee said
Loooooony: It makes goblins.
patrick_stonecrusher: The 3/3 manland any good?
BrowneePointz: add lightning strike and Wolfstalker’s Frenzy
Loooooony: Negotiation, sorry.
Lord_Hosk: James, its you playing, 7 land is probably enough and you will still somehow flood
QuixoticScrivener: it’s a sorcery
Diabore: id do 21 lands personallt
Technic_AL: saw a Goblin Negotiation
LurkerSpine: you scrolled by it
Azbazel: It's like impact but buff your creatures

Cptasparagus: enduring courage but its not mythic
BrowneePointz: shutdown life gain or Ojer axonil
Cptasparagus: embercleave is good
djalternative: sunshine lynx
kynelwynn: Ojer is my pick
UtilityPunk: Lol, Axonil making your goblins 4/4
BrowneePointz: ojer axonil is funnier
Loooooony: Ojer Axonil works wonders with Tremors.
Azbazel: Ojer
space_held: its in foundations
QuixoticScrivener: city on fire?
patrick_stonecrusher: its a special guest, dont know if legal

Earthenone: it came with the beachball
BrowneePointz: cuz wooooooah City on fiiiire!
kynelwynn: James pile
Diabore: @Flyingdelorion friend this is goblins, it needs to be able to win before it can win more
accountmadeforants: Yeah, same set of things you got the beachball from
Azbazel: Gobloom
Anonyman41: @BartholemewTheKitten very good
Azbazel: Like boom
iris_of_ether:
Earthenone: i think G crafted an entire set on the account for gems or something
accountmadeforants: Not ranked?
Kentosaurus: sparky, no one asked you
ghizmou: rank will probably be easier actually
Flyingdelorion: GLHF!
accountmadeforants: I mean, ranked means you'll get matched with other players who haven't played standard
ghizmou: you're bottom tier
iris_of_ether: People rank up and then leave ranked
Earthenone: balatro hand
patrick_stonecrusher: Your deck draws both krenkos, apparently
accountmadeforants: The Moonbase Mulligan. You mulligan up to zero times
offbeatwitch: ahh cut down my behated
Saintnex: Ah, mono black demons im guessing
TheWriterAleph: choo choo
Earthenone: with the 3 mountains could have gone ful house

TheDevil_Risen: oops, all removal
accountmadeforants: Krenko's not an outlaw? He must have a great lawyer!
UtilityPunk: They didn't shoot a deputy though
TheDevil_Risen: ahh thats the meta black midrange deck
GasCityGaming: this is the World's winning deck, or near it
TheDevil_Risen:
GLHF
BrowneePointz: Yeah, they just tried to combo you there
Diabore: they get nothing
Earthenone: jokes on you we dont have anything to discard
TheWriterAleph: omg.
offbeatwitch: its possible they printed too much black removal
Technic_AL: how annoying
BrowneePointz: anyways, this is why Aggro decks are still running forge
Diabore: hateful
noSmokeFire: what percent of this deck is just removal?
QuixoticScrivener: opponent is mono kill spells?
Saintnex: Standard lol
offbeatwitch: this is what standard is like yeah
Earthenone: one of these days they will que against a creatureless deck and cry i assume
Loooooony: Mono Black control, from what I can gather.
ghizmou: that's just a fun casual game of unranked
kynelwynn: This is standard
Technic_AL: is opponent running OOPS All removal?
TheDevil_Risen: It's Black Midrange infinite combo
accountmadeforants: Opponent decided to build a fun non-meta deck: Oops All Removal
TheDevil_Risen: its one of the top 4 meta decks
Bugberry: they are drawing an extra card every turn, so drawing into more removal is more likely.
Loooooony: More generous people call it standard demons. XP
QuixoticScrivener: surprise is instant
Diabore: it tremendously does not matter
Flyingdelorion: we are already dead
Saintnex: Oh we just die to unholy
UtilityPunk: Lol, what a format
Technic_AL: that was just....awful
jacqui_lantern234:

stevefromdetroit: I’m a big black player - and that game made me feel icky
accountmadeforants: *low-contrast
UtilityPunk: "On board" heh
Saintnex: tbf to Standard, there is a very good mono red deck in the meta, its just surrounded by a lot of black
Lord_Hosk: Its the mirror!
Lord_Hosk: I was wrong the mirror is shattered
Loooooony: I believe opponent is playing Izzet starter deck.
noSmokeFire: James "Two Krenkos" Turner over here
Loooooony: Okay, they don't.
Loooooony: Gain lands are too op for starter decks. XP
UtilityPunk:
Starter decks are for scrubs
UtilityPunk: We have finely crafted homemade decks
MrGibberish: They could have taken the starter deck and slightly uptuned them
iris_of_ether: James. Cori.
bytecaster: The brothers say no to cranking
stevefromdetroit: we are crankless
TheWriterAleph: play krenky kong again
korvys: in the monbase. straight "krenking it". and by "it", haha, well. let's justr say. My gobolins
Lord_Hosk: HE said the line!
Loooooony: Hey, you're winning. ._.
stevefromdetroit: we are a bunch of dummies. you’re right.
Lord_Hosk: Of course! it has lightning right in the name
Earthenone: it counts as both ball and lightning
Bugberry: You Standarded
kynelwynn: retire champion
Earthenone: all it took was one starter deck
BrowneePointz: it is by definition lightning
QuixoticScrivener: lightning colt!
Lord_Hosk: All year?
Lord_Hosk: both days?
noSmokeFire: both!
Saintnex: ohh noooo
Technic_AL: OH NO
BrowneePointz: anyways, yeah, that’s why I don’t play standard quick play best one, it’s a lawless wasteland of folks trying to dirt you out
RockPusher:
Juliamon:
Azbazel: All two days of 2025. YALL PLAY STANDARD NOT DRAFT
Loooooony:
Opponent is playing cats.
GapFiller:

Bugberry: Not even a 1 drop
Jillexie:
offbeatwitch: efficient
UtilityPunk: Never punished!
KaleidoscopeMind: gotta keep that rank down
Azralorne: So definitely not fine then?
Dread_Pirate_Westley: Should have retired champion when you had the chance.
ghizmou: aggressive, I like it
Saintnex: thats certainly a thing
Bugberry: red on red
Technic_AL: Wow
Loooooony: Opponent is burning like a champ.
Loooooony: I kinda love it.
Lord_Hosk: its the all lightning deck
Bugberry: Slag STorm incoming
kynelwynn: Pyroclasm
Dread_Pirate_Westley: They're kinda dead.
patrick_stonecrusher: Hidesu's incoming
TheDevil_Risen: James, are you having many emotions ?
glitched_goddess: 50% annual win rate

TheWriterAleph: sounds exhausting.

Saintnex: I actually dont remember if you can lose any rank in the bottom tier
TheWriterAleph: james you can't just ask people why their bubbles are big
BrowneePointz: James, when people told you your rank matters, they meant in an olfactory sense
Diabore: @Saintnex can not in bronze or silver
Azbazel: Bubble blowin
Loooooony: Maybe 20 lands is too few lands.
KingOfDoma: Where's the Curse when you need it?
Bugberry: Boros Heroic looks like it.
BrowneePointz: Should’ve killed the mouse
Azralorne: Like a real one?
Kentosaurus: 2025 year of the donkey
TheDevil_Risen:
heheehe
Saintnex: we are taking a heck of a beating
noSmokeFire: I see one right now

BrowneePointz: and that’s why you always kill heartfire hero ASAP
jacqui_lantern234:

BrowneePointz: apple please
TheDevil_Risen: @RiverGloom wheeler found a place they can hire one locally
TheDevil_Risen:
it was a whole thing
Fanklok: At some point this year there will be an 8 second video on the main channel of James pointing at a donkey and saying "look a donkey"
TheWriterAleph:
Loooooony: GG easy.
stevefromdetroit: won with TWO lands in hand
jacqui_lantern234:
CORI YES
jacqui_lantern234: IM CACKLING XD
definenull: Doodah, doodah?
EvilBadman: Reject Shrek, become Donkey
anyGould: There's a costume that she hasn't worn / But just you wait, just you wait...
stevefromdetroit: he was probably offended by the size of your bubble
KingOfDoma: "Coriander Donkeyson. My name is Coriander Donkeyson. I like playing Magic cuz it's fun! Just you play, just you playyyyy..."
QuixoticScrivener: Coriander Donkeyson to the these of “Alexander Hamilton.”

Fanklok: The last name Dickenson means that somewhere in Cori's lineage there's a man named Dicken
Diabore: yknow what would be great? if negotiation dealt damage equal to the mana spent to cast it, not just equal to x
Diabore: so at base its RR for 2
RiverGloom: i have to say Cori amazing job on not a drop to drink, just finished the finally and Jordan is my hero
BrowneePointz: Cori’s last name OBVIOUSLY means She’s Dickens’ Son but someone typo’d. Also she’s a time traveler
Lord_Hosk: Dropkick and cavern of souls
TheDevil_Risen: awwww
QuixoticScrivener: maybe a better one drop as well
TheDevil_Risen: it was really good!
varmintx0: you could have just lied
Diabore: cavern hurts us a lot with how many non goblin spells we have
RayFK: Don't cut
RayFK: run 64
RiverGloom: vote James for not a drop to drink series 2
RayFK:
Sorry, don't cut run 64 #wotcstaff
offbeatwitch: ayy lmao
QuixoticScrivener: did we want to steal their 1 drop first striker as well?
ghizmou: you're certainly content creating
RayFK: Nah, still am.
Juliamon: you have to say it on your wotc account
BrowneePointz: They tell Jordan he is to make him feel better
offbeatwitch: my hubris
RayFK: Pfft, I'm still on vacation I ain't turning my laptop on Juliamon
jacqui_lantern234:

Adam voice: MEESTER INTI
offbeatwitch: lol i kept a no-plains
offbeatwitch: ggs!
RiverGloom: there is a squee deez nuts joke somewhere there, but im also on vacation
Lord_Hosk: Standard is amazing perfect format no notes
BrowneePointz: offbeat you pulled a James
BrowneePointz: NEVER GO FULL JAMES
offbeatwitch: i did i did
offbeatwitch: it was a banging hand otherwise though
BrowneePointz: barbala baba is fun to say
CrossXhunteR: no
RiverGloom: no
Diabore: No
brutalpunishment: Negative
Saintnex: nope
RiverGloom: there is a mouse one
QuixoticScrivener: right now minored is rabbits
Fanklok: There's a competetive deck that has atleast one goblin in it
CrossXhunteR: mice
Dread_Pirate_Westley: Mono-red is probably too slow for standard.
Diabore: Mice can be competitive
BrowneePointz: Mice or burn
CrossXhunteR: not often white
QuixoticScrivener: mice prowess
BrowneePointz: nah just red
CrossXhunteR: usually mono red or gruul
Saintnex: lots of prowess last I checked
bytecaster: I do enjoy that the mice beat the goblins
MrPipboy3000: White Rabbits is pretty good
Diabore: Mono red prowess is also a thing
Bugberry: The good Red mice plus Valiant/heroic enablers.
stevefromdetroit: I want goat tribal to be a thing
Diabore: Probably ub
BrowneePointz: dimir demons
CrossXhunteR: mono red prowess or dimir midrange, probably.
BrowneePointz: I think
djalternative: there’s also the banned in bo1 pump spells and fling. it wins on t2
spacedovtt: dimir midrange or gruul prowess
ghizmou: dimir was the deck you faced in unranked
BrowneePointz: yea dimir was the better version of the deck you faced
Diabore: The one we faced unranked was mono black demons
CrossXhunteR: im thinking of registering what is basically a duskmourn block-constructed UW enchantments deck for the GP this weekend
BrowneePointz: unranked was mono b but the stronger version is UB
Diabore: Or mono black slasher more correctly
Earthenone: dident want to trade a goblin in for 2? or did i misread the 2/1
Serpens77: could have attacked with 1 token then to get the raid triggers?
Lord_Hosk: I think you are gonna WIN!
bytecaster: I believe in you!
Lord_Hosk: damn auto correct, I meant lose
RiverGloom: if you just want wins mono black discard will get you there
BrowneePointz: but yea there’s not QUITE enough zoomies in the goblins for a high tier goblins kindred deck atm
BrowneePointz: not that they’re BAD
BrowneePointz: just not fast enough or synergistic atm to push higher competitive
bytecaster: Enjoy my hand (sincerely)
TheWriterAleph: you dare insult barbalababa
BrowneePointz: that being said James…Lorwyn next year
stevefromdetroit: cool ball
bytecaster: This just in: Orb good
BrowneePointz: and Lorwyn gonna have SO many Gobbos
CrossXhunteR: ive definitely seen someone bring a goblin deck to standard FNM like a week or two ago. they lost in close games with monored, but they seemed to be having fun
Bugberry: Tarkir is going to have a non-zero number of Goblins too.
BrowneePointz: oh yea Tarkir gonna have gobbos too
BrowneePointz: probably some new version of Vialsmasher
Bugberry: I want to see the Space goblins in Edge.
Juliamon: Tarkir gobbos my belobbos
CrossXhunteR: the snorse that bobs wrong
bytecaster: The Snorse comes for us all
shasra: snorse
TheDevil_Risen: SNORESE!
RiverGloom: ohh, a good adaptation is the office Australia
RockPusher: Paul rules with an iron fist
BrowneePointz: Tarkir’s Ready, Gobbos Are Yeti
Bugberry: Jund goblins are my favorite, little ratty guys.
Lord_Hosk: cavern of souls
RiverGloom: change the goblins to mice
bytecaster: Too late
BrowneePointz: cavern of souls and Forge
bytecaster: Rude
Lord_Hosk: still bad
BrowneePointz: but yea I’m just excited to see Cori experience Tarkir, and hopefully it’s a great return
RiverGloom: yeah black seems to have an overwhelming command of standard right now
BrowneePointz: it has a LITANY of premium removal of all kinds
BrowneePointz: an incredible amount of card draw AND threats
bytecaster: Right on time
BrowneePointz: but also not completely oppressive like Kaldheim/Kamigawa Standard
RiverGloom: if i haven't said it before it is great to see you more in the mtg content Cori, it's great to see other women play magic
Lord_Hosk: a 2/2 your weakness
bytecaster: We are ahead by every metric (Don't look at hand size)
RiverGloom: odds we get heather to play a drafty night ?
SeiichiSin: Death by a thousand cuts. Or just one big thing swinging back at you.
BrowneePointz: Are they playing a starter deck?
RiverGloom:
RiverGloom: i can dream
bytecaster: Our deck seems a little rude this game
varmintx0: how much do you like your lands?
Juliamon: Only if Beej teaches her how to play
patrick_stonecrusher: Octopus time
BrowneePointz: look, you asked me what cards we should add Cheekily to make it better
varmintx0: unreal
stevefromdetroit: well then
BrowneePointz:
I responded truthfully
SeiichiSin: Oof.
Technic_AL: RNG please
bytecaster: I love Standard
RiverGloom: @Juliamon i can be onboard with a beej and heather puzzle quest stream
RiverGloom: black white bats are a fun time
BrowneePointz: Question, do we want to shave a couple things for a couple of the red case that draws cards?
bytecaster: @BrowneePointz Our deck can be Goblin detectives!
BrowneePointz: huh, didn’t know the soldiers deck was still kicking around
Bugberry: I was thinking Connecting the Dots would be good in this deck, another Murders red enchantment.
BrowneePointz: connecting the dots that’s the card I was thinking of thank you
Bugberry: @BrowneePointz glad I could connect those dots.
BrowneePointz: I think we wanna kill it before it gets any counters on it
stevefromdetroit: to be fair, the problem lately has been either not enough lands or too many lands
GasCityGaming:
now if we lost it's on James
Bugberry: I'm curious if Elves have enough in Standard to be decent.
offbeatwitch: just tryna goblin over here
Juliamon:
The game was lost when James returned
narset6691: the domain horror deck is fun
narset6691: if you are looking to netdeck
Lord_Hosk: Netdeck but you have to play something with goblins in it
narset6691: sorry, i only mentioned it cause it was suggested
BrowneePointz: make a couple decent meta decks and run them through their paces yea
steelwind47: @Lord_Hosk Tha'ts what Crim does. Build a netdeck with a weird flare.
Earthenone: p1p1 gobblin!
Bugberry: Blurst
BrowneePointz: honestly, it doesn’t have to be a weekly thing but a long series about a grind to mythic would be kind of fun
narset6691: yes.
bytecaster: More goblins though!
Earthenone: burst is correct, goblin is funnier in context
Lord_Hosk: You take the rare... the best card is the rare, or it wouldn't be the rare
RiverGloom: goblins 2: goblinboogaloo
BrowneePointz: yea standard ladder
Bugberry: Hawk seems fine
Bugberry: but I haven't played much of this format.
Earthenone: thats why they call her coriLADDER dickenson
RiverGloom: i think part of the fun could be learning more of standard as they climb too
narset6691: sun blessed healerrrr
Cptasparagus: ladder I hardly even know her
MrPipboy3000: Serph works with hawk
ghizmou: black
Flyingdelorion: Black
Bugberry: Boros with some incidental life synergy
narset6691: its whenever you attack, not necessarily with that card
narset6691: it plays better than it reads in my experience
MrGibberish: Stuffing.
Saintnex: pizza?
stevefromdetroit: enchiladas
varmintx0: We made lasagna 2 nights ago...it was delicious.
itira: sushi bowls
UtilityPunk: Foundations is a nice drafting experience tbh. Almost seems like the Starter Collection can be a reasonably good cube starter
MrGibberish: Here an idea - burritos and nachos
patrick_stonecrusher: Pizza lasagna, lots of thin pizza stacked together
sporkraptor: Spouse is going to try a new Italian chicken and stuff recipe XD
RiverGloom: chicken parmesan and a salad
Bugberry: Probably need some lower drops
Lord_Hosk: Sushi
RiverGloom: @sporkraptor that sounds delisious
SK__Ren: Another Banger art from Dominic Mayer
Saintnex: pasta
sporkraptor: @RiverGloom yah, we got fresh tomatoes, bell peppers, and spinach for it, should be good
itira: no but you could make a sushi bowl which could be as simple as rice cucumber avocado and maybe a meat like imitation crab

quatoria: y ou can make sushi with spam
RiverGloom: @sporkraptor i recently made a stuffed chicken alfredo with spinach
TheDevil_Risen: did someone say sushi?
sporkraptor: left to my own devices I go for frozen stuff or Basic Quesadilla (tortilla, slice cheese, lunchmeat)
TheDevil_Risen:
Yum
stevefromdetroit: grilled cheese and tomato soup
Lord_Hosk: Chicken Nuggies, Sweat and Sour pork, Rice, and mixed veggies.
sporkraptor: oooo damn, that sounds really good--I'll mention it to Spouse, he's the cook in the house XD
TheWooglie: stew
Lord_Hosk: wait, thats what Im making
itira: its snowing like heckin heck here today
RiverGloom: or a cold winter night
Earthenone: do we take the rare and try and wheel the gold card?
Saintnex: potato soup?
Bugberry: Vindicator, LRR's preview card
RiverGloom: wait!!! who doesn't have soup on hand
BrowneePointz: Potato soup is so good
sporkraptor:
yeah, I have to do gluten-free and that nixes most soup, including *every* campbell soup
BrowneePointz: also chili
BrowneePointz: and yes, I’m lumping soups, and stews in the same family for this conversation
ShaneLeeAtk: I was just asked to make Cream of Wheat for dinner.
stevefromdetroit: I have soup… I just usually don’t want soup
TheDevil_Risen: Potato and Leek soup is one of the GOATs imo
Bugberry: Double Kykar
Bugberry: This Kykar has been really fun in Brawl.
RiverGloom: ohh a good Guinness stew and some fresh bread hits the spot everytime
BrowneePointz: you could splash Alesha
MrPipboy3000: Alecha might have been worth the black splash
MrPipboy3000: Alesha*
RiverGloom: we just got 60 cm of snow here in Ontario so we are making all the warm yummy comfort food
narset6691: its a combat trick that sticks around
narset6691: its not bad
sporkraptor: yeah, I'm hoping we get a decent snow in Seattle
SAJewers:
6 ft blizzard james?
MrPipboy3000: I love the hommunculus horde ...
MrPipboy3000: not in this deck of course
sporkraptor: maybe not get snowed in for multiple weeks though XD
Bugberry: Reinforcments might come around.
RiverGloom: @sporkraptor whats the average snow fall there
Shurtal: i got a storm coming this weekend, but the estimates are still WILD: Anywhere from a dusting to over a foot/30cm
Azralorne: Cori, that howl made Raven freak out lol
RiverGloom: @sporkraptor i always love Seattle for the rain and forget snow is cold rain
sporkraptor: @RiverGloom it used to be pretty rare, but it's been getting more regular and heavier in the last few years (For Some Reason)--idk the actual average though
RockPusher: with or without soup?
ghizmou: and bacon too?
BrowneePointz: What cheese? Gonna do like a American Havarti mix?
Bugberry: In Texas we are expecting really low temperatures this Monday, for us at least.
sporkraptor: @RiverGloom it seems like we get stuff that sticks once or twice every year now
jacqui_lantern234:
but will you be AT SOUP?!
RockPusher: bacon leek and potato is where it is at
RiverGloom: the big question are you a ketchup on grilled cheese person james?
Shurtal: i've been making grilled cheese with jalapeno jack cheese
RiverGloom: @sporkraptor we seem to get less and less every year here actually
theamc2000: do you like hot sauce on grilled cheese?
SeiichiSin: Agreed. Soup is a dip for grilled cheese.
Shurtal: pepper jack, w/e
stevefromdetroit: mayo or butter for the grilled cheese!
Lord_Hosk: Grilled cheese is a little more complicated here than I expected. The butter is so firm! Why is the butter still hard at room temperature!
jacqui_lantern234: @RiverGloom apparently James has good taste. THERE I SAID IT
MrPipboy3000: Grikked cheese and tomatoe soup always felt like pizza with extra steps to me ...
RiverGloom: @Lord_Hosk the trick is to use mayo insted of butter

Bugberry: Berserker is a weaker Most Valuable Slayer, but still very good.
jacqui_lantern234: @RiverGloom mayo on the outside, thin layer of butter on the inside
BrowneePointz: anyways my suggestion for things beyond just American, is Gruyère, Fontina, Havarti or Smoked Gouda. add those with some American Cheese and you’re in grilled cheese heaven
RiverGloom: @jacqui_lantern234 Mind blown i want to try that
BrowneePointz: make sure it’s a mayo brand you like @rivergloom
UtilityPunk:
Chili bread
RockPusher: Facts
itira:
iris_of_ether:

itira: pizza toast? goated
iris_of_ether: Hungry
stevefromdetroit: windows noise
TheDevil_Risen: hello windows
DrLigmaPhD: White cheddar with green apples on a grilled cheese
theamc2000: the windows noise made me check my iPad for updates
offbeatwitch: well you're probably connected
varmintx0: I went to check the notification, but then I didn't care what Windows whining about anyway.
jacqui_lantern234: so, like, does anyone wanna buy me a pizza? i could go for an XL right about now (for legal reasons, this is a joke)
Earthenone: it was either a pizza or a union
RiverGloom: provolone, and Havarti with thin slice pear and honey grill cheese
Bruceski: Eat their pizza, form a union anyway
jacqui_lantern234: @Earthenone ill take the pizza and unionize anyways

Bugberry: only once a turn unfortunately
MrGibberish: How they made this from a draft, is amazing
RockPusher:
Everyone wants to fbl their thp from time to time
Bugberry: @MrGibberish There's a subtheme in Blue of second card drawing, and 2 on-theme rares. Hard to do but not unlikely.
Geldaran: Nice.
Jillexie: lol
BrowneePointz: They could have killed you, but they didn’t
quatoria: he was doing all this intricate delicate stuff and you just shot him in the fact
Fanklok: They chose to lose
quatoria: they REALLY should have just killed you, yeah
BrowneePointz: They wanted to play with their food
MrGibberish: @Bugberry Still, the way they did it was fun
Jillexie: They could have just attacked with everything
