I mean, obviously I understand it doesn't do anything against nongreen/red creatures (a skimming if the OP would've provided that info). But j think he's good enough against blue's worst matchups to warrant inclusion, even if he's not getting maindecked for game 1s (or alternatively, getting sideboarded out often)
I can't be the only one considering this guy... he's everything you want against most aggro decks, but I'm pretty sure he just doesn't do anything against other colors. I know a lot of people around here don't like "sideboard only" cards, but this card might make me consider changing that policy.
OK, I re-read my posts and I feel that I might have been too abrasive. FWIW I'm sorry for this, its just that this kind of thing frustrates me to no end and I wish people on a magical cards forum could act like adults just one time.
The ultimate troll here is by the staff; they refuse to open a dialogue with Condoms, by will talk to us about it here where he can't even see it.:teach:
You know, I wish staff members wouldn't disparage people who disagree with them by labeling them as "Scumbags", "Internet Terrorists" or "Anarchists" (sic). That would also help avoiding escalations and ill blood.
When you continuously get spat in the face and laughed after attempting to be amicable and trying the former, there's not much else left for you to do. And I think calling access "toys" is appropriate, given a handful of users have no stake in community drama other than trying to escalate it for fun.
But Condoms wasn't escalating anything other than the level of the discussion
I think its pretty hard to make concrete rules about behavior and general posting manner. If an individual is constantly posting below infraction threshold, but deterring others from participation or creating ire within that forum, nothing could be done that wouldn't seem unjust or uncalled for.
Perhaps instead of the statement "We can ban for any reason", it could read more professional. In example, "We will infract or suspend for behavior we feel is detriment to the atmosphere of the forum". Then when the issue arises, you have something to point to.
This works except when your staff creates ire out of thin air. Condoms was literally just expressing discontent, and not even being rude about it (I literally cannot see one rude thing on all those posts... but when you throw "because gutter" into the mix...). But when the Butt of the Staff becomes hurt, it doesn't matter how unjust or uncalled for it is, because they have their "fine print" line already, they don't need it to sound any more professional than it already does.
I think I can get behind that, if only for curve reasons of the guild section (a 1-drop, 3 2-drops, 1 3-drop and a 5-drop)
Cutting a 2 drop for a 6 drop, if nothing else, makes the section more interesting.
Pyrewild Shaman --> Chandra, Pyromaster
Nearheath Pilgrim --> Imposing Soverieign
Devoted Druid --> Elvish Mystic
Devour Flesh --> Liliana's Reaver
Aftershock --> Young Pyromancer
Ulvenwald Tracker --> Witchstalker
Sorin Markov --> Lifebane Zombie
Reading is tough, I guess.
but perspective can be wrong
