Agreed. I like a good crispy fry personally. I'm not the biggest fan of a ton of seasoning, but flavor is good. I can go either way on salt, although I prefer not too heavily salted.

Thoughts on waffle fries?

I went through phases of building the deck and taking it apart, but in the last few years I've decided to keep it permanently built.

Otherwise I've had it built in some form or fashion for the better part of 11 years.

You're never going to believe this...

I probably mentioned it before, but a friend of mine works with some Indian guys, so they go to legit Indian restaurants when they do lunch. I'm absolutely certain he can eat all of us under the table when it comes to spicy food.

Meanwhile I'm Super Weenie Hut Jr.

Big time Venom fan, so excited to see Anti-Venom show up. Being harder to cast, but cheaper, color-shifted Vigor is great.

I was thinking about her in Lae'zel, since she can spiral out of control with the number of effects I have that do counters +X.

Also 100% died to it somewhere back in AVR standard, I'm sure.

Followed him around like a Pokemon in Chicago, big confirm that he's a cool dude. Also really love the little snips and quips he throws at everyone. It reminds me of my own tight-knit playgroup.

"But the first two Lord of the Rings films didn't get a whole bunch of awards. I mean, they were probably good, but if they were truly great the Academy would've recognized it."

I also don't keep hands with Sol Ring in them, as well as Exploration if I'm running it. Too often they end up being trap hands where I don't actually get far enough ahead to be worth it.

I know you picked, but Rocky Road or Mint Chip are solid openers.

I read "Power 2 or less is my passion" as "CMC 2 or less is my passion" and thought you were playing Lurrus.

I've had the Cat on the brain too much lately.

It's like Paradox Engine. The thing that makes it the most broken is the thing you use to cast it.

There's definitely something that could be said about the flavor text there.

It's essentially an Esper strategy, where the primary strategy is assembling Sword of the Meek + Thopter Foundry with Time Sieve, Disciple of the Vault and Marionette Apprentice as outlets.

Painter / Grindstone and Scepter / Reversal are also viable combos. Walking Ballista is an infinite outlet.
