Hello all, I am looking for opinions. I am debating between reanimator and sneak/show. I love both decks but I want to know which one is going to be a more consistent performer.
Hello all, looking for some advice, I have a strong liking for two decks, just not sure what to choose. I'm looking at Tin Fins or Sneak and Show. I play in a small local meta with ANT, High Tide, Burn, Maverick and Miracles. I also plan to regularly attend local SCG opens. What do you guys think will be the most fun and have good matchups in the wide open metas that are opens.
How's Erik Smith ranked 4th, when he clearly forgets that Urborg works for both sides? Why did Tod Anderson not wait since Crop Rotation is an instant? Even if Erik activates Waste, Tod can still respond.
Just because a player is a SCG Open grinder/doing well doesnt mean they know every single card interaction.
As for Todd, if you have ever watched him on camera before, he's a very aggressive player, he'll jam things ASAP. I cant fault him, I would have jammed the 20/20 too, force your opponent to have the response, if they dont you win, if they do, you still win the late game if you survive the goyf.
I am beginning to build this deck, with True Name nemesis being in, Is the black splash no longer as needed? I read Soorani's article but I dont agree with geist when for a shorter clock we have a far more resilient creature. Also is the discard and zealous persecution worth the black splash? I like baleful strix as well but if UW is going to be actually competitive again, I may just go UW.
So I have recently purchased Last Night on Earth, Growing Hunger and Timber Peak. I want to sleeve the hero deck and zombie deck. Do normal magic size sleeves work or is there something that is better for that?
There's nothing wrong with getting a second opinion.
Did you ask for or hint that you wanted stronger pain medication?
No, in fact I just asked if I should continue taking the ibuprofen or if I should have an antibotic. Never asked for pain meds. I didnt even ask in the emergency room.
Hello all, Just looking for some ideas from outside of my normal circle.
2 Weeks ago I ended up going to the Emergency Department at my local hospital with stabbing pain in my left kidney area. After waiting for hours and having blood work done, urine testing, and a CT scan there were no infections or stones, only some mild inflammation, the doctor on staff advised to take NSAID's and drink plenty of fluids and if necessary follow up with my primary care doctor.
A week later and the pain was still happening so I contacted my doctor, he said to go ahead and take 2 ibuprofen 3 times a day and drink plenty of fluids and follow up if necessary.
So I felt better for a few days then when I stopped taking the ibuprofen the stabbing pain came back. I contacted the doctor again and he wanted to schedule the appointment and I was told I had to pay up front $85.
I Tried to borrow the money from relatives to no avail. So I called and said id have the money when I get paid next week.
8 Hours after I left that message, My doctor's nurse called back and left a message since I was at work.
She said they could break it down into payments but what bothers me is during the voicemail she says my doctor wanted me to know he will not be prescribing me any narcotics like vicodin.
This bothers me, not because he wont prescribe them (id rather have the issue fixed) but because he apparently thinks im seeking drugs. I live paycheck to paycheck right now so when I say I dont have the money for an appointment im being serious.
So should I change doctors? It sounds like my doctor no longer trusts me because I was concerned with monetary costs of care.
So anyone know a good place to order hyper mats from? Im having a hard time at my usual spots. I definitely want to try them because I love my KMC mattes but I hate the baconing at the top.

I am stuck between Esper Stoneblade and Shardless Bug
I really like them both, but I dont know which one is going to be better for random / unknown metagames.
Any advice is awesome.
