This does not belong here.
Wizards and any affiliated companies, organizations, stores etc need to stay out of politics. What one gamer does is not the business of a franchise and their product has nothing to do with the behavior of single people.
Wizards getting involved, this website getting involved and others continuously commenting on this and getting involved is what is destroying not just this society but even the American one with the larger more political events.
There will always be sexism and racism what people need to do is stop being hyper sensitive and stop coddling wounds and focusing on the predators. Christine Sprankle lost when she stepped out of the community. Rather than just stick up for herself publicly or take it to court and use out judicial process available she simply gave up and whined about it.
This is a far deeper issue in not just this community but society. She expects us to do things for her, defend her, and react to her "sorrow"
This is the problem. People need to learn to grow a thick skin and defend themselves appropriately.
And wizards apologizing for things like the garruk and lili art coddles this childish behavior.
We cant even have our FU**ing game bc people are too sensitive. The hyper sensitivity and need to coddle those with these ideals seeps not only inot our game but into star wars and now marvel comics with their female iron man and captain america.
Its frustrating to see these companies getting involved in these ideals rather than staying true to their fans and the game/story.
This is the same for this website. We dont care about opinions anymore. State your opinions ONCE and move on. STOP lingering on emotions and the same thing and move on. Jeremy is so guilty of this i mean his videos are 20 minutes long because he rattles on about the same shi*.
He is out of hand and offending ppl unnecessarily but on the flipside others need to stop being offended and move on. And we must all recognize that he does have a point on the leftist philosophies seeping into our games and hobbies and that is very frustrating.
Can someone explain how this card is good?
What do you guys think about academy ruins in mainboard.. I want to take 1 glimmervoid out for it.

This is an idea Ive had for a deck with strong creatures with no draw backs and ways to mitigate the draw backs. If you are able to get a torpor orb out you can use those spells to deal with your opponents board. The scepter adds recursion to your spells while the undying spells recur your creatures.
Im thinking of splashing green or blue to add some protection such as counters or making my creatures hexproof. I feel there is alot of untapped potential here. I like the aspect of main boarding torpor orb. Torpor orb stops so so many modern staples and powerful creatures (TKS, flicker wisp, sculler, snapcaster mage, restoration angel, fairies and the list could keep going very easily).
Please give me any advice that would make this better. It actually performs quite well and I feel would do well in modern.

This is my iteration of the deck. I really like having the ensoul artifacts because they are indeed quite powerful. I run 3 thoughtcast to mitigate losing cards if my ensouled artifact gets dealt with. I believe this is the correct strategy when using these enchantments.
I only run 1 mainboard steel overseer because to be quite honest he only ever gets activated a very very small amount of times due to removal and in my opinion just is too slow, and too weak on his own. I feel that MOE is far more powerful. Etched champion mainboard simply because all or virtually all removal is colored regardless what deck (eldrazi tron = dismember, affinity = ancient grudge, dispatch, etc etc) and hes just a good card in my opinion. Especially considering the decks my friends play hes just best at mainboard, and can be pumped by MOE, ravager.
I just wanted to share my thoughts and see what you guys thought. Im still inexperienced compared to many of you but I just really love this deck both in terms of play style and the art on the cards.
But that green God.. yes i think i may try him out
Perhaps a nissa (3 drop) or garruk wildspeaker
Perhaps what im looking for is CoCo which is an okay card for this deck in my opinion.

I want to test out infiltration lens id like to cut the dismembers or a couple rancors what do you guys think about that?
Okay how do you feel about infiltration lens?
Sorry for not highlighting cards im on my phone
It is very efficient and I think it can still compete with out the hierarchs it beat GR tron, merfolk, and UW control and won first place no problem at this tournament in strousberg! No hierarch needed but im sure it would give the deck a handsome boost... for the cost of a hefty penny that is
Anyways i digress.
nothing an all is dust cant handle tho
