There's a glove in mtg that looks like the infinity gauntlet.

Okay :) I'll wait

Give us an estimate then ;)
How far of were I in my attempts?

Forget explaining it if it's a function :p

Wow, bring a microscope.
I wonder if a seagull counts as a figure, because there's likely one at the left top side of the card flying in the background.

Yeah I can't stop letting evolution build my decks.
I've learned more about the game from studying why the hell it picks out one card rather than the other than I have from watching human decklists.

Human designs look sensible and seem to contain some inner logic.
Evolution designs are freaking alien and truly gains synergy from the deck as a whole, and once evolution has found a pathway through all the opposing decks, it magically seems like you top deck every freaking time you draw a card, no matter what you face. It performs impossible feats and comebacks from so many lousy looking hands.

I usually say keep if there is just a single land in the deck, or if I draw a 7 land hand.
It's just miraculous in its own way.

It's a matter of odds. If you have a 60 card deck and draw 30 cards there's a 50 percent chance you encounter the land in the 2nd half. Add another land and there are 4 different ways it can play out where 25%of the time you find the card at the front part of the deck, with a 1 out of 25 chance of it being in location 2 through 25, but there is 75% chances of it being after the 25 first cards.
Adding a third card makes it into 8 different scenarios to advanced for me to go into, but there are som odds for the card to be between the 12.5 first cards but since you draw 7 chances are you get it into your hand and then statistically there should be a number of 12.5 cards before the next land?

Or is it three scenarios of 20 cards each?

I don't know, but the odds are in your favor at some rate :)

Does anyone know the odds involved in this ?

Might be heliod combo from vintage if I am to guess :)

I on the other hand, was wondering why he missed the slashes in the title on this one, and I also noted that 20200911 would be a rather certain date if it wasn't because he dates all his decks
:)

Definitely go blue for force of negation

Must be time robbing :)
My own time is robbed by the damn long time it takes to abuse evolution.
Speaking of it, I just reached generation 9. Will post it in about an half hour.

Yeah, draw is nice :)
Gotta get the damn thing first :)
25 modal lands would be optimal, and amulet of vigor to support it.
It can be 2-3 colors so study the modals to get just the right tricks as a backup.
But you should play red as one color just to be able to play through moons.

When I became a prepper I learned how to shop a lot cheaper, and shopping longterm fixed my economy. Having a large stack of food made me endure 7 months with no income and lots of Bill's for housing, water, electricity and warmth. If you end up with seasoning jobs you will need to be prepared for the downtime. And when you get to the age of 45, society regards you as a bother and you get surpassed and out selected by youth, because all your skills are considered obsolete because of new technology. If you then try to reschool it you lose 10 more years because that's how outdated the school material will be. Technology moves too fast these days. You have to be in it 100% to compete there and then someone invents something smarter and you are out again. Save up half your money for the last half of your life.

Morals delivered you can compare it to formats.
They are spreading like wildfires these days, and it's a symptom of some kind.
I think like decks, it's a good thing not to have too many.
No matter what format you choose you wont get much better, and being out of touch with a format is catastrophic.
If your favourite format seems to be dying, cling on to the end, because if it survives you will have gotten out of touch. Your second format is just the backup.

In many ways this behaves like the job market ;)

???
There's a mythic, a rare and and uncommon set in each color.
That's at least 12 mana of the same color. Granted 8 of each color comes into play tapped, but they may help simian spirit guide to pull of an early seething song. It's possible to build a 60 modal spell lands deck.
The modal land/lands wont work of course but building a deck with 55 modal lands and 4 charbelchers and a basic land is pretty possible. You can play A total of 20 lands that demands you pay three lifes to untap them.

From experience, the safe money making is on people skills. Psychology, medicine, childcare, government, scholars, stuff like that. Handyman skills are also quite good, but suffers from seasoning.

I get ordinary pension by the state and from work.
The cards I intent to start selling when I am no longer working (in about 20 years time)
I expect to have the time to become a trader by then :)
My collection dates back to unlimited to just before return to ravnica.
It's why I tend to build rather expensive decks ;)

Are you kidding alfred ?
Modal lands are perfect for Belcher as it doesn't "detect" them. You can play one normal land and 20 modal lands without a bother. It would be almost insane not to use them in belcher.

I have a part time job, but prefer to get money from other stuff. I'm pretty rich in magic cards but a lousy trader so I wait on selling cards to I go on pension. I used to buy 12 booster boxes of each release until I quit a job at a bad time.

Now I usually take a trolley for a two hour walk past a villa area where they put out great stuff on the streets if you are willing to pick it up. Weirdly enough people with cars haven't picked up on this so I trolley at night to avoid people with a car getting the same idea.

I'm 49 years, so it's a trip :)

Noooo!
Then it would have to be that blue white dude that's 1/4 and functions close to a fraying sanity :)

My back hurts a bit this evening. I've scavenged for "large garbage".
in my area of Denmark, large garbage is removed from the streets by a special unit.
It includes all kind of furniture, and there are zones where you can place it to get it removed.
I hunt for the best furniture to sell it cheap to people who don't mind used furniture, and I found something in the 2000$ class. It was a 2 meter and forty centimeter long floor furniture (usually meant for extremely large TVs) and I had to trolley it and disassemble it in front of my apartment. I might sell it for 1500$ as it was in near mint condition. Heh :)
It was extremely heavy and took two hours to dismantle without damage
Resting now with two beers.

Looks like fun.
If it spreads out in here I might make an nfo frontpage for it :)

Oh yeah, and dibs on archive trap as the commander.
Muahahaaa !!!

If you wanna get back at wizards for their sexual harassment stunt, you should know that their R&D team which makes up the cards have been very very VERY naughty themselves.

All creatures with the ability mutate are having perverse names.
The mechanic itself is rather sexual. You put one creature on top of the other and they "merge" considering all their names being perverse and the mechanic being perverse this was done pretty wilfully.

Now as if that wasn't enough, ikoria lair of the behemoths also gave the companions some hints at perversity.
And they are "companions" which on itself can be interpreted based on what I've already told you.

The set name might be a dirty reference as well, since ikoria lair of the behemoths isn't far from ichor-ia (ichor is slimy stuff) the set name is sort of slimy lair/ladylike world that frequent really big visitors (politely said)

I got almost all of the cardnames of these abominations listed on a page if it is of interest to you.

If you know how to search for deck tags search for: vulgarity
Otherwise search for the deck name:
All their names are pervy

I guess if you take that road wizards will go full scale on you, so only do it if you have a death wish.

But you could build a deck based on mutate as a mechanic and swing with creatures like migratory greathorn (a big horn that travels a lot) or necropanther and accidentally call it necro-panter (someone panting over the dead)
Cloud piercer (this think that somehow pierces windy formations)
I'll leave the set and you alone now, have fun ;)

I don't know much of pioneer, but in modern the modal spells are thought to bring in two decktypes
Charbelcher and ooops all spells (balustrade selfmill of entire library)
More details in my modal spells article.

Alas, wheres them "dire fleet daredevil"
With first stryke that steals from their very grave ?
They would do well with them neckbreakers :)
