That is cool , but why wouldn ' t somebody write down just one of the runethings ? Like I can just tell my friend one rune that makes proximity 100 m away , one that generates one kiloton of force , and happens 10 seconds after you write downactivatespeak the runes . That is three to four runes in total . You don ' t have to know what it means to use it , just that the runes exist . <| sep |> There better together than brangelina ever were <| sep |># HIGH CHEEK BONES ? KEK <| sep |> The more I play , the more I ' m leaning with this opinion . I ' m thinking about just getting into Standard and possibly frontier . The challenge is that all of my LGS play Modern for FNM and standard gets very little support . I want to be able to play and have fun while doing so . I don ' t want to be spending absurd amounts of money on a single deck , as I do not believe that this is something that should be supported . It sends the wrong message to WotC , and inhibits many players from ever getting into the game . When I was a kid , playing MTG was for the dorks me being one of them and we didn ' t have an income to use . We had fun just playing what we could and would tradegive cards to anyone who was wanting to get into the game . Having stepped away from the game for a few years , it feels like that mentality has been all but lost , as everyone net decks and searches buy lists for THE BEST cards . and I hear the YOU HAVE TO HAVE FETCH LANDS every day .
