I did, but I didn't know what it was or whether there was context. That's probably a compliment, that I didn't know if it was from something or not.
My bad, i edited my post to say that it's a nonmtg related story i'm working on..with that in mind what did you think?
I enjoyed it. It reminds me of 'Lies of Locke Lamora', but in an enjoyable way that I didn't really get from Lies. It's written really vibrantly, it flows well, and barring a few punctuation and grammar mistakes is quite well written.
Are you a publishing author? Or is this just for fun?
I published a couple of short stories a few years ago via kindle direct publishing, but right now it's just for something to do when the mood strikes.
Good for you! It’s well written, I’d be interested in reading more if there’s more.
As I work on i'll post new versions here in that case
Wow, I sucked at Battlebond big time, going 0/3. Still, pulling a Seedborn Muse, a Land Tax and one of the set's dual lands (the UB one), plus a couple of other potentially useful cards, more than paid for my entry fee.
Now if I could just find some time to play some Commander. It's been a couple of months, I think. I have just started updating some decks with cards from Dominaria.

I've got you beat there. Had my first multiplayer EDH for ages over the weekend. Beat face with Nissa and lost in the end to Athreos and a Shepherd of Rot.
You've got me beat for Battlebond though. My LGS sold out before I could even grab a single pack. I got a couple of staple singles, but man it went quick.
I hope they're holding the best for last because M19 looks really bad so far.
Most of the revealed stuff is commons and starter deck cards. We've only seen a handful of the rares/mythics. Isn't it a little early to complain about the set?

I don't usually expect a ton from the core sets, so I'm not expecting miracles here. M15 being the last was pretty average.
Time Nexus is the big splashy blue spell which is kinda cool. I like that they're looking at different ways to make extra turns less abusable, so the tuck rule is interesting.

It's never too soon to complain. You should know me better by now.

My hope from any set is that there are 1-3 playable commander cards. It doesn't matter how much chaff they print, I didn't intend to buy packs either way.

I have officially moved to MTGNexus. I just wanted to let people know as my response time to salvation decks being bumped is very hit or miss.

Nexus of Fate seems like one of the ones where complaints might be justified. I feel like this one is going to be much higher demand than Firesong and Sunspeaker and it will only have taken 2 cards before they screwed up with their new buy-a-box promo system.

I knew I'd got the name wrong but couldn't for the life of me remember it. This is a buy-a-box? I won't be supporting that. It's cool, but not worth 160 NZD.

I've reached the point where I have a hard time getting excited by any spell that costs 7+ mana unless I have a way to cheat it out.
Briefly, but it just started back up again. Moab got hit really badly. Not really sure how badly because all of their phone lines and junk are down. There's also one in the middle of the state. It's gonna be a super fun summer.
Ha! I've seen people starting to build Najeela, I'll have t ogo through your list and check it out. Lovisa is cool, I wouldn't count Najeela as too much of a problem haha.
Battlebond sure looks interesting. Pir and Toothy interest me a lot, but I'm not sure if they follow the same rules as regular Partner and may be used as a commander? But I am building them slowly anyway, they'll be an online-only deck so I don't have to worry about budget.

They can both be your commander. They have all of the normal Partner rules, it's just they can only partner with each other instead of mixing and matching.

Awesome! Gonna start working on them, then.
It feels weird working on new decks when I haven't updated my old ones. The only of my old ones I really plan to update are Laquatus and Yeva, and even then Yeva is...not a priority.
Going through your Lovisa list rn and it makes me happy. Lovisa deserves the love
Soooooooo, I have been playing fortnite recently. I am kind of an anti social fps player and while that is fine, they gave a weekly challenge a few weeks ago for the battle pass which requires 4 players to dance in the same room on opposite corners of the room. I.... essentially don't know anyone else who plays so if anyone else plays / will help me out please let me know. I play on PC myself.
Nothing annoys me more than a challenge that requires you to not be an introverted nerd.....

On the plus side, I could see enough outcry over this that they have to back off the unique BaB promos and those are a terrible idea.
