Um, you're supposed to fully randomize your own deck. If your deck is not randomized enough, you are to blame. It's not your opponent's fault for not shuffling your deck enough.
You can ask a judge to shuffle for you if you have a broken hand or something, otherwise, it's not our job to shuffle everyone's deck. If you think your opponent is cheating or not shuffling their own deck enough, that's when you call a judge...
I'm the same person who sent you a message on reddit about this but, In case you didnt get it, A single set of connectors goes for ~150-200. something like this should start around 1200 and just go up till someone stops handing you hundreds for it
That seems like way too much, I would have guessed about $200 for the page? And that seemed generous.
Am I missing something here?
#1 As long as the card isn't marked, should be fine. Personally I'd allow them as long as I'm sure they're not marked.
#2 Not recognizable, so probably not. I would say no to these.
#3 As much as I'd like to, no, rules are very clear on this.
#4 No this seems like it would cause confusion, I'd say no.
#5 That sort of thing would be fine for sure.
#6 Not in a sanctioned tournament, no.
For casual play #2 (butts) and #4 (needless cardswapping) would likely irritate me, the rest, wouldn't bother me.
I've opened a grand total of three boxes. Two of them were super incredible. But that other one...it was Avacyn Restored. It had one Silverblade Paladin, one Resto Angel and one Vexing Devil. The 3 mythics were Tamiyo, Bruna and Descent into Madness. The rest was crap. I'm in Canada and that box cost me $120. I wasn't expecting to break even, but more than $50 would've been nice. Seems pretty tame compared to other stories here. Then I opened the other box and I felt better.
That seems... pretty average actually.
I did a RTR draft a couple months ago and there was absolutely nothing of value in the draft, and it was an 8man so I had 12 packs left. Must have all the good stuff right? Nope, nothing in there either
Since Shallow Grave was considered a bulk rare, I would imagine a lot of them could have been lost, or have tarmogoyf sharpied on the back.
That's funny, I have Breeding Pool sharpied on the back of my Tarmogoyfs. I must live in a parallel universe?
The supply of Shallow Grave will steadly increase as people hear about the price and spot them in their junk bins, they disappear for a short time and then when the price goes high there's always plenty around if you wait a bit..
I have a miscut silverblade paladin shifted almost to top of the card and you can are a small white circle where the next card would start.. Any idea of what it would be worth? Also have a primal surge basically the same way.
It takes away from the experience of the draft because it gives an unfair advantage to your neighbors and yourself. Your neighbors will stay out of your colors now, and the people across the table from you don't have the benefit of this so you've given yourself an edge. Ideally, imho, this would be cheating.
At best, this is frustrating for those of us who LOVE to draft and some butt can't stay quiet.
And I don't mean we all need to be super quiet and serious the whole time, I just think there's a very important line not to be crossed, and it's somewhere in between "lol this pack is bad imma take the foil plains" and "omg i have 3 boros charms"
Player 5 knows: Shy away from R/W or possibly take some not many people to the left will be taking it for obvious reasons. (The decision probably comes with what you're passed for that round which will provide a treasure trove of information)
So you're saying P5 should stay out of the colors of the player of P1?
That's not how drafts work...
On second thought, maybe this requires a back story. All of my friends keep tagging me in these stupid things on facebook trying to get me to fill them out. So I decided to massacre one. Enjoy!
$5-10
The Japanese one, I have no idea... but this could be looked up.
No, these aren't nearly "miscut enough", I think you'd be lucky to get more than 10 cents apiece.

Plenty at 38-40, nothing even close to 60...

Couple shocks, and that was pretty much it.

$7-8 for the Paladin, $1 for the Surge.
