I waam actually going to buy all of the decks despite most of the generals being underwhelming, but when I saw they were only available as foils I completely lost interest.
I'm thrilled they are finally doing the commanders in foil so I don't have to wait for them to maybe print judge foils at some point in the distant future. However I'm not going to run any of the commanders in cube and don't want to build any decks using the new commanders so they're pretty worthless to me. Maybe next year. They really should do one of each though as I know a lot of people dislike foils.

I have nothing against them doing it and I know that every year there have been complaints about not doing foil generals. But I personally dislike foils to the point where I only run ONE foil and that is a Loyal Retainers that I was stuck getting foil or three more expensive ugly white border.
Edit: Hey Weebos, Hulk is banned. Get it off your want list.
Lol, just saw you committed a trade to me, thanks, I appreciate it.
I'm just trying to get ahead of any ridiculous unban spikes if they ever happen.
Ditto. I got my Hulk, Gifts, and Painter just in case. Gifts and Hulk are actually in my cube so they see play still. I don't know if there is enough support for Painter, but I would like to find room.
Went to Target today and saw all five of the new precons on the shelf. I don't think that's ever happened yet, so I guess that's a sign that they either didn't do as well as expected, or were shipped out in large numbers.

I've been to 2 Targets and a Wal Mart since they released. Lots of group hug and a couple Yidris on the shelf, but nothing else. I'd say they a re moving better in my area than previous releases.

Getting into a slump with video games, haven’t found anything that really appeals to me lately. Currently playing Hard West but it’s not very good and I’ll finish it in a few days anyways. Before that I played a lot of FTL but have beaten it with every ship on Normal and Hard difficulty is more frustration than I’m willing to deal with so that game is done. X-Com 2 wasn’t nearly appealing to me as the previous one. Fallout 4 wasn’t able to hold my interest past one play through. Mostly looking for a roguelike or RPG preferably on PC though I do have a PS4 as well.
To answer my own question I picked up Darkest Dungeon on sale and it's quite good. It's a difficult old school type RPG as far as the battles go and features auto saves and permadeath for the characters. The character's stress is a factor and if it gets too high they'll probably go insane until you get them medical treatment. Managing stress is often more important than managing HP. The commentator is pretty awesome in a grim sort of way.
Grand Theft Auto V was on sale so I picked that up too. I wasn't a huge fan of GTA4 but at the very least I should get my money's worth.

I grabbed Civ 5 and Far Cry 4 out of the steam sale. Civ mostly because I've never played any of those and the sale was too good for me to pass up, FC because I've heard it described as Skyrim with guns and that sounded amusing. It's more or less lived up to expectations so far. Looking forward to trying out the co-op with my wife.
Anyone else get anything fun?

I know most of y'all are done with university, but holy crap finals suck. I'm a music major so a lot of our classes are 'listen to this thing that is specifically hard to hear and write down all of the notes and then analyze it.' I'm not super good at these dictations, I don't have perfect pitch, and the TA in charge of my section is the worst teacher I have ever had. And I really wish I was exaggerating there, but they were so bad all semester that my stress level has been through the roof and I started getting migraines again.

Darkest Dungeon is one of my all time favorites. I got it back when the cove and the darkest dungeon weren't even released.
Hopefully come January, I'll be bale to get the dual lands i have my eyes on, however they are Collector's Edition. I don't think this will be an issue since they will be in dark colored sleeves.

I got a spare CE Underground Sea. Looks badass but I'm switching my cube over to all tournament legal cards. Hit me up if you're interested.
My Gauntlet of Might is CE. I wish I had shelled out the cash for an Unlimited one back when they were around 100, but the CE sure it a great looking proxy. Wish CE wasn't such a limited run (or that Wizards would print more cards like this).

I never went for the CE/IE versions and I don't think I've regretted shelling out for a nicer RL card yet. Those prices have gone crazy.

i'll keep yo in mind,but I haven't totally sold myself on getting duals,I'm torn between lands and other cards I don't have like the full sword of x and y cycle and fetches along with shocks along with others

I definitely advise getting shocks and fetches before duals. Duals are more like a luxury item when you find that you not only have everything you need already but also have a lot of extra money.
Next time you set out to build a casual list, you can start by dropping Mana Vault and Chrome Mox. In fact, why don't you just cut everything that we have a SCD for in the ban list forum.

Broken fast mana is casual. You're just not supposed to know what to do with it.
Your Ancient Tomb should have entered tapped from the effect... and if this is happening on mtgo..
Bug report?
poor wording it did Come In tapped I Meant I used the hero and my remaining 2 mana to draw it
Crying In my defense I did not put in mana vault and ran plenty of subpar cards . Perhaps your right I just can't be trusted to Play blue admittidly choosing to add T+N combo was a bad decision in hindsight.
