themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 15/08/2026:o I am misremembering an arc that is 20 years old. Whoever could have forseen this? (In all seriousness, thanks for the correction :) ) 010
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 14/08/2026I suppose I overestimated how attached she was to the name, and especially her feelings towards Dr. Scuridae (I thought she saw him as yet another father figure, rather than a grandfather). But I also wonder how much it's an attempt to distinguish herself from her biological mother. 100
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 21/07/20263 Houses was absolutely amazing. My friends and I set up a seperate discord channel just for discussing that game, because we kept having questions about the lore and politics. I still love talking with people about which characters they sympathized with. 110
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 20/07/2026Direct currency payments with no limits on the kind of spending, usually. "You are alive, here is your money, do with it as you will". These days, it would probably be some kind of bank transfer, though cheques have also worked. 110
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 25/02/2026I would probably say "no basic lands" instead, given that strip mine is still on Arena :P 000
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 10/02/2026Being an avid Blood on the clocktower player, I can asure you, the red tokens are magnetically drawn to the newest players. 000
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 05/02/2026I mainly play BestOf1 standard, and at this point, I do just concede whenever I'm against someone going "mana dork -> Owlbear Cub -> Ouroboroid.", if I'm not playing some specific control deck with cheap board wipes. Much more interesting when the cool thing takes time to work well, too. 000
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 05/02/2026Timeless culler is honestly a pretty good combo. Forsaken Miner and Bloodgast are the other options in my mono-black sacrifice deck that can also keep coming back from the grave. Pick your favorite or all three, but bloodgast is a 2-mana. 000
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 05/02/2026Moonshadow has absolutely become my most beloved card of this expansion. Goes well in any graveyard or recursion deck as a cheap threat, and you can use things like Likeness Looter or Manifest to get around it's ETB. And I also think it takes enough to activate to not feel like I'm cheating. 110
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 26/01/2026Standard player, but I feel your pain >.< There's few things as frustrating as go "well, I didn't draw the one mana removal spell that is useless in every other matchup, so I guess I just lose". 000
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 09/12/2025"We gave this demon a cast trigger instead of an entera trigger as a safeguard." Cool, good choice. 4 sets later: "We made a 4 mana creature ghat casts a card from your graveyard for free when it enters" 010
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 09/12/2025They have their place, but the current density of cards that do it for cheap (4 mana or less) is absolutely making them extremely annoying to deal with. Why make expensive creatures in the first place if discard/mill + cheap sorcery is enough to circumvent the cost? 100
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 30/11/2025Wolfie Glick's videos about his teambuilding has really made me appriciate just how many moving parts there is to a system I understood reasonably well at age 10, despite being unable to read the language I was playing in. 000
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 13/11/2025Meh, got the quote wrong. "A very tried, overworked Jakkai" www.sdamned.com/comic/102 000
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 13/11/2025As much as we talk about Kazai's look, I really love Rea's face in panel too. It feels like we can see the malice actively melt away in her eyes, replaced with the exhaustion of "A tired old Jakkai" 130
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 20/10/2025 and that she had had something physical going on with J. It was just the vibe I was projecting onto them. And I appriciated the wake up call of "Nope, she's just not into that stuff". (2/2) 010
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 20/10/2025I was going to save this comment to the relevant strip (1 or 2 for now), but I really liked this segment, and the insight we got spelled out about Rhea. Before that conversation, I was 100% sure had had a romance with Ramirez (They shared a bedroom and he did the funeral rites) (1/2) 110
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 07/10/2025Rhea, hands down. Buwaro is kind, but Rhea has both mystery and, IMO, more of an arc. 000
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 29/09/2025Going purely by my memory here, but doesn't Thrawn himself admit at to it not working on at least one occasion? 000

themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 20/08/2025Last standard tournament had literally half the top 8 decks and 40% of all decks running 4 copies. It was pretty much impossible to deal with. Constant pressure with haste, prowess and trample which made blocking irrelevant 100
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 08/08/2025And I got the quote wrong because I quoted it from memory >.< Oh well. 010

themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 01/08/2025I basically gave up on Dragon Prince when it became clear that the only plot they hand in mind for Rayla and Callum after they got to together was to split them up so they could write about them getting together again. Yes to more healthy, ongoing relationships. 000
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 31/07/2025(Ran out of space) It is only ever the resolution to the conflict. At least when it isn't shown even more realistically, as a source of support that helps but rarely solves anything. That is what cemented Lumity to me. 140
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 31/07/2025Lumity is one of the big animation success of all town. Openly queer on Disney, sure, but what stuck with me was how it wasn't a story of two people falling in love. After that halfway point, lumity is the story of these two people -being- in love. Their relationship is never the source of conflict. 150

themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 07/07/2025I can't help but think the combat trick that gives 3-6 power and double strike for 1-2 mana might be a bigger issue than the minion >.< But yes, massive damage out of nowhere with no board state is a problem. -Looks at standard before the bans a week ago- 100

themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 12/06/2025I actually ran into an Aerith deck in sealed that made decent use of the white mage staff. No nonsense, though, just playing it normally. 100
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 22/05/2025This. "Think something [to be] confident" is indeed a fairly normal English construction. 010
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 06/04/2025You do realise you don't have to write out the title on every single book in the background, right? Nobody would have noticed if you didn't, and it must have taken a lot of time XD. But quality like that is what is making me stay here :) 040
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 02/04/2025With the extra aggression that comes from him feeling being re-elected was basically god giving him carte blanche to do anything he wants.

themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 11/03/2025I've been trying some alchemy recently, and that seems even worse. 80% white/black decks based on bats. Which is also what I am playing there, so I can't complain too much, but still. 000
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 11/03/2025Yeah....I love Standard, but at the moment, there is basically one 2 viable decks, and variants of them make up 70% ish of the opponents. Either it's a red shell based on the bloomborrow mice and enchantments/combat tricks, or it's an enchantment based bounce deck. 100
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 10/03/2025Based on her look from March of the Machine, I'm gonna go with no. scryfall.com/card/mom/125.... Her first look in particular looks like she's just fully covered in chitin of some sort. scryfall.com/card/jmp/278.... 010
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 07/03/2025It worked rather well for a day or so after Foundations released, but once people knew of the combo, every deck in Standard had enough removal to be ready for it by round 5. It still really should not be in a 5-year-rotation set. 020
themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 02/03/2025Which format are you playing? I don't see a mention of a commander and Guide of Souls isn't standard legal, so I guess it's timeless or something? 100

themunck.bsky.social @themunck.bsky.social · 26/12/2024I just want them to be consistent, if it's a long running series. Bring back the dead character? If we're tracking player choices, have it matter to them that they survived or came back from death. Picked a canon path? Use it to do interesting stories, and don't just be vague about everything else. 000
