How is the Bloodsworn Saga?

Looking to see how people felt about this trilogy, I’ve had it on my TBR list for years.

For reference, I’ve read the First Law trilogy and loved it. I’m a big fan of fantasy and darker fantasy all around, but I’ve yet to see anyone dive deep into this series and give some comparisons to other works.

How’s Gwynne’s writing style? What’s the world building like? Are the magic systems and lore in the books fleshed out and deep, but not convoluted? Are the characters well developed and thought out?

Worst Experience w/ a CC in my life

So before I get started, let me clarify that this card when I don’t have issues is phenomenal. The cash back literally cannot be beaten and it’s going to end up covering a trip to Hawaii for my wife and I sometime early next year. I’m fighting my ass off to make this card my daily, but it seems like Robinhood doesn’t want that.

It started off with an issue that is mostly my own fault, I will admit. I had a Robinhood account already under one email and password, while applying for the Gold Card from Credit Karma, which then caused me to create a second account with a different email. Why Robinhood allows for 2 accounts with the same SSN, I do not know. But no big deal, I didn’t really use Robinhood for investing anyways, so I didn’t feel like it would be that big of an issue.

Until it came time for me to pay off the card for the first time. Oh boy, that was a shocker. I had made a smaller payment earlier in the week before I got paid just to check and see how long it would take for the available funds to update and surprisingly they updated immediately! Great, it’ll be just like my capital one platinum card then!

Yeah, until you try paying the ENTIRE card off and they quote you 5 business days before the funds will be available again. Fantastic.

Did a little research and found out that if I made payments directly from a brokerage account that the funds would be available immediately. Great! Problem solved! So I got a hold of RH Support and had them merge the 2 accounts so that I would only have one account with one email and I’d be able to easily submit payments and have my funds available on my credit card on every pay day. Beautiful.

Until I find out that once I had Support merge my accounts, that it had logged me out of my Gold Card banking app and I can no longer log in. At all. I get to the screen where it tries to login via the Robinhood app, and that doesn’t work, so it prompts me to log in with email and password. I click submit and the screen stays the exact same, but a few seconds later I’ll get the OTP on my phone from them. With no where to put it on the app.

So now I have no way of accessing my balance or making payments, and the best that Robinhood Support could do was “Send an email to a higher level and let them handle it” with no ETA and no follow-up after 4 days.

Yeah, this has been an absolute nightmare.

Pantlaza Deck

This is where my Dino deck is currently at. I’m pretty happy with it and it plays well at a bracket 3 table. I still need to overhaul my land base, which is the next step (jetmirs, shock lands, untapped duals like spectator seating, etc.) and I’m gonna try to incorporate more blink effects like The Mind Stone at some point as well. Anybody else got some ideas to consider? Thanks!

Does this fly? Pistons send JD & 2nd to Milwaukee for Herro & Turner

Salary isn’t concrete, just through in a rough estimate for what Duren would probably be offered.

Deck Advice for Bracket 4

https://manabox.app/decks/Gt8GJj\_4R2y4xZYNZW2Xyg

I just built this recently, and have experience piloting a Hearthhull lands matter deck, but I still assume that my own piloting is what’s holding this deck back.

I know the cost of this deck and the time it took to invest in all these cards has taken precedent, so I still need some experience piloting it, but I was looking for some tips and tricks on how to make sure I pilot it correctly moving forward.

This is my first step into B4 and I know I have a decent concept of lands decks, but I wanna make sure I have all the info I can going to B4 with this deck.

Thanks!

Upgrade Advice

https://manabox.app/decks/AZ3UpdYOds2Q2YfWUej8-Q

Looking to make this deck more potent.

I know for sure that my next step is going to be adding some protection for Satoru with cards like Swan Song and Force of Will.

But beyond that, what are some other upgrades I should consider? He’s a B3 now, but what could I do to let him hang in B4 pods?

Ive considered a Thoracle combo, but idk if that’s just the cop out in Dimir to get him to B4 or if that actually makes sense for the archetype this deck is going for.

Do I get a seat?

Been playing off and on since 2014, but have only been playing commander for about a year. And yes, I like precons, they’re the best sealed product WotC releases 🤷‍♂️
