I believe Erdogan (and Turkey in general) were big players in getting the wheat trade deal settled, as well as the prisoner exchange, though I could be misremembering. It's just a weird situation of Erdogan having a history of centralizing power, but also making moves to be more relevant on the global stage.

For a Master of Keys, he doesn't really help with unlocking doors or playing rooms, huh?

Plus it synergizes with the Survivor archetype in green/white this set.

I agree, this feels like the worst of the leylines shown so far this set. Does literally nothing until maybe turn 3 or 4, depending on format, and hitting WUBRG is fairly difficult in Standard, Pioneer, and Pauper. It's unusable in Mono-G Commander decks due to color identity.

There's a reason Jodah, Archmage Eternal isn't a factor in competitive formats.

That's true of a majority of commons.

I was trying to see if this could fit into Insidious Roots, but it's 2 mana instead of the 1 mana that helps the combo go off, and its power is too high to trigger Gorehound. The fact that they haven't already slotted Thespian into those decks means this won't fit either.

Why is this a news article? Why is this posted to this community? It's a well written article, but it carries no new news, and is just an article by the author of a book that's about to go on sale.

Aw dang, Special Guest. For a second I thought it was coming to Standard.

So... This allows you to get some attack triggers without risking getting killed by blockers?

For deck building purposes, I always have Scryfall up, and if I'm doing EDH, EDHRec is something I like to reference to see if I'm missing something obvious.

I want to build a deck largely out of cards I have, and I want it to be my deck, not just what people consider to be the best shell for my commander. But, I can always use a very powerful search tool, and sometimes my knowledge of cards is pretty limited, so seeing what other people are doing can help inspire me to look for similar lines or concepts in my own deckbuilding.

This game gave me my first real experience of melancholy. A sort of bittersweet sadness, born of what was and what could have been.

I'm digging the Lowlands a ton, but I actually didn't spend too much time in Grothmar. I've done the cycle of meta events there maybe 2-3 times total. They're fun and interesting, but when they're not active, I feel 0 compulsion to do anything on that map.

Anyone else feel that? Felt like 3 seconds of rumble over in the SGV.

Edit: Here's the USGS report.

TF2 Smissmas Patch! (www.teamfortress.com)
 

It's a Smissmas Miracle! Cool little patch that I might reinstall TF2 to try out.

Anything in here look exciting to you?

 

Hi, this sounds like a dumb question, but how should I "get into" coffee? Most of the time, I just use a Keurig and whatever pods I find at Costco. I know there's an entire world out there of people who know exactly what they're doing, but it's all quite confusing.

If I'm typically only ever making coffee for myself, what should my brewing method be? Nespresso? Pour-over? French press?

And should I be looking to try everything black, or are lattes and whatnot a good way to learn what my tastes are?
