I don't think this is an entitlement thing for most folks. I think folks are just being skeptical about the change and aren't sure if they can trust Curse because they don't understand the imperative for the change.Quote from Ertai Planeswalker »As much as I dislike this change as the next guy, I do want to remind everyone that if you did not pay for anything, you are not entitled to anything.
Everybody who paid for your MTGS account, raise your hands

Thanks for taking the time to reply to my inquiry. I guess I'll just bite the bullet and make myself a Twitch account then.Quote from Feyd_Ruin »snip -

Would you be willing to elaborate on why this is true? I know that I'm being skeptical here and that the question I'm asking is pretty technical in nature, but I'm failing to see why this is the case. What makes the account merging more secure for users here? Aren't you still just dealing with the same number / types of accounts anyway?Quote from molster »
This lets us just run a single user pool, which is a LOT more secure for users!Quote from Eruyaean »So Basically, i have to create an account in some unrelated service i may not use to continue to use this Forum? -

I don't use Twitch. I don't even like Twitch. Why do I have to merge my Salvation account with a Twitch account all of a sudden? Molster says it's because it provides more streamlined account security, faster user support, and an easier log-in process, but this is still baffling to me. Easier log-in process? How much easier could logging in be? My home computer already logs me in automatically. Everywhere else... it's just a simple username/password system. How could that process possibly be made any easier?
Maybe this is a security thing, and admittedly I know absolutely nothing about security, but how does merging Salvation accounts to Twitch accounts make things more secure? And why Twitch of all things? Why now? What's the prerogative for this change? Maybe I'm just being some cranky, old man whose resistant to change regardless if it's for the better or not, but I honestly just don't understand why this even needs to happen. I don't want a Twitch account. - To post a comment, please login or register a new account.
I'm looking for cards in Jeskai colors that will allow me to sweep up permanents with greater flexibility than an ordinary Wrath of God.
Wrath of God and sweepers similar to it have the unfortunate downside of being blanket answers. There may be a player or two in a multiplayer game that has troublesome creatures that I need to get rid of, but I don't want to punish everybody else in the process. Right now my favorite sweeper is Austere Command because not only does it allow me to choose specifically which types of permanents I want to get rid of, I can also deliberately choose to leave specific cards in play untouched by not selecting certain modes. Are there other cards like the Command that will allow me pick and choose what I want to destroy? AEther Gale also seems to accomplish this, but I haven't had the opportunity to play with it yet.
