>can't consistently kill before turn 4
>infect
Why does wizards do this? I'm not calling for a ban or anything, but infect can sure as fuck pull off turn 3 wins easily. I don't get why wizards had to go and ban Amulet Bloom and Twin and let infect be a thing, it really makes no sense to me. I only mention this, because I was played ting against it last night, and if you're not running a decent amount of interaction, you pretty much lose to infect.

So WoTC has been trying to save Standard as of late, but they've been going about it the wrong way . The reason why standard has been losing popularit is because of outrageous prices. The new rotation schedule will only make prices higher, as a faster rotation will naturally attract more sketchy vendors (like the ones who destroyed the YGO community). WoTC, you know what you need to do to save Standard? STOP PRINTING MYTHIC RARES IN STANDARD SETS!

When the last of the burning spots fade from your eyes, you find yourself in the antechamber once more. Jun has since vacated her seat, leaving you alone in the plush, velvet-draped room. You pluck a glass of water from the table and swallow its contents in three long gulps.

Vague impressions are scorched in negative across your mind's eye. The King's smiling, bemused face; the brief glimpse of a woman in a gown; the feeling of falling, endless falling and chill.

All things considered, you think that meeting went well.

As if on cue, the door behind you swings open. You adjust your mask before turning to greet the newcomer. The tall, thin councilman with the dark beard stands behind you, flanked on either side by a member of the royal guard.

“Totemist.”

“Councilor.”

He paces forward, stepping past your seat to settle down opposite you. The guards remain in the doorway behind you. The councilman wastes no time in getting to the point.

“The King has spoken,” he decrees. “He finds no fault with your intent, and the council no reason why we should not agree to your proposal.” You tense momentarily as he reaches into his long jacket. After a moment, he withdraws a wax-sealed scroll. He proffers the parchment to you.

“Deliver this to your village's governing official. Once their signature and seal are marked upon the document, return it to us and we will begin deliberation regarding the cost and timeline of the road's initial construction.”

You accept the weighty roll, tucking it into your cloak. “Thank you, councilman...?”

“Mos. Mos Cagari.”

“Councilman Cagari,” you finish. “I will see this delivered to the elders with all speed.”

He rises from his seat. “If there's nothing else, I bid you good day and safe travels, Totemist.”

You incline your head to him respectfully. “Thank you for your time.”

Why is D&D-style magic so obsessed with an arms race over magical countermeasures?

>How do you detect and overcome the Alarm spell? Cast Detect Magic to find it and then use Dispel Magic!
>How do you hide from a host of divination spells? Cast Nondetection!
>How do you see past an Invisibility spell? Cast See Invisibility!
>How do you get past the thicket of countless illusions that can confound even the sharpest of senses? Cast True Seeing!
>How do you remove someone from a Geas or a Flesh to Stone? Cast the right restorative spell!
>How do you prevent someone from being possessed by a Magic Jar spell? Cast the right Protection from X spell!
>How do you break someone free of a Mass Suggestion spell? Cast Dispel Magic!
>How do you prevent someone from teleporting into an important area? Cast Forbiddance!

Is there any way for this to NOT devolve into a series of hard counters and cops-and-robbers-style "I have a bullet-deflecting force field!"?

Why does it not just discard the magical countermeasures and give each spell ways to be reliably (yet challengingly) counteracted with mundane measures?

>Tolkien writes a boring distilled fantasy setting of various boring European folk tales and mythologies, inserts his childish worldview into it, and decades later a hugely successful movie series is made from it.
>George RR Martin creates an even more 'gritty' and bland European fantasy adventure, ripping off even tolkien in parts, almost no fantastic elements at all and plotlines stolen from real world events and yet has a hugely successful TV series and is a popular meme setting to all the normies.

>Meanwhile you're lovely, handcrafted fantasy setting created from the very best myths and legends from around the world, stuck full of realism and intrigue, inflated with absolute majesty and awe will lounge forever in obscurity and impotence.

Just fuck my life up. This world is garbage.

Previously, on tundra civ:
>>46983951
A dark chapter in our history was written - in the first month of 1076 AE(After Exile) the killing of several anti-government protesters in the kafi lands by a military officer sparked the beginning of a kafi uprising, which turned into a holy war for these subjects of the White Republic. As an answer the Kafi Extermination order was approved, yet the rebels persisted until anhilation. The news of the violent surpression of this rebellion spread to other non-white provinces and caused massive riots. Refusal to bow down to the demands of the rioters led to more conflict, a large-scale revolution throughout the provinces that lasted for nearly two years before being crushed by the military.
While the material damages of these uprisings will be restored in a matter of years, the political effects will last far longer.

You are Kusajishi Riku, a shinigami and Captain of the Ninth Division of the Seireitei's Court Guard.

The inner world of your own soul is a desolate landscape, but at the same time it has always struck you as a surprisingly calming place despite its inhospitable appearance. The low hiss of gasses as they escape from the burning, blackened earth beneath your feet greets your ears, interrupted only by the crashing of distant waves on a rocky shore. A ceiling of stormy gray clouds stands motionless in the sky above, as if they were painted onto the inside of a dome by some masterful hand rather than having arisen due to some natural phenomenon. And the lone cherry tree where your zanpakuto spirits stand, eternally locked in luminous bloom, fills the still air with the faint but evocative scent of sakura.

Sometimes you wonder if anyone else's inner world is this weird by default.

“The first way of Ura Hadō, called “Sōgenbi”, is a dangerous technique in many ways,” your first zanpakuto Tenkotsuki explains, her nine golden tails swaying behind her idly, almost as if they were actually capable of boredom and restlessness. “To learn, to use, and in the existential sense. However such a technique is not without its uses... else it would never have been created in the first place.”

“I fear the time may soon come when you will need it.”

That sounds unusually ominous. “How do you mean, Tenkotsuki?”

“Before I sealed myself away from Muramasa,” she explains, recalling the moment when the rogue zanpakuto tried to forcibly “release” her from you and control her mind for his own ends, “I felt something that concerned me greatly. Something elusive, behind the chaotic and confused mass of his own energy and the hollow energy which currently sustains him.”
