Until I rode pasta.
No plates piled high, no leftovers. Surely I'm a shoe-in for a Damehood!
They all agreed he looked Cannelloni.
EDIT; Thank you for all the awards, I guess I pasta test!
Let me start this by saying I'm a picky eater. I'll try anything once but typical foods that people love (spaghetti, rice, ice cream, ect) I don't like. Pasta has been on the list the longest. I used to like it when I was little and then one day I stopped. The only pasta I like is mac n' cheese and ravioli (chef boyardee), which I've been told don't even count as real pasta.
Now I cook dinner almost every night, I'm happy to do it. I love cooking and trying new recipes and even though I won't say it out loud I'm a better cook than my husband. He's not bad (his burgers are the literal best I've ever had) he just doesn't have as much experience as me. He does cook sometimes but usually after work he just wants to chill.
One thing my husband mentioned was how I never make meatloaf or spaghetti. I told him I don't like those foods but if he wants to make some he can and I'll just have a sandwich. I even offered him my moms recipe for spaghetti sauce. He never said anything so I just assumed we were done talking about it.
Then one day my husband, seemingly out of nowhere, gets upset telling me that he hasn't had meatloaf since we got married and it's my fault. I again reminded him he can make whatever he wants but I don't like meatloaf and I don't even know how to make it. I know how to make spaghetti but only because it's easy. Then he got annoyed saying I wouldn't even make my moms sauce for him. I told him the cook book is always in the same place and hes free to look through it.
I don't understand why hes upset. He's made chicken fried steak for himself even though I don't like that either but apparently I should have to make the meatloaf and spaghetti for him. AITA?
Inspired by discussions on abusing [[Tibalt's Trickery]] by using it to counter your own spells, I have a list for y'all, complete with transformational sideboard:
Companion
Jegantha, the Wellspring
Main Deck
Spells
1 Tibalt's Trickery
4 Violent Outburst
4 Emrakul, the Aeons Torn
Lands
4 Wooded Foothills
4 Arid Mesa
4 Scalding Tarn
4 Bloodstained Mire
2 Misty Rainforest
4 Dwarven Mine
4 Khalni Garden
4 Stomping Ground
4 Steam Vents
2 Field of the Dead
1 Snow-Covered Mountain
1 Mountain
1 Snow-Covered Forest
4 Ketria Triome
4 Sheltered Thicket
1 Forgotten Cave
1 Mutavault
1 Desolate Lighthouse
1 Blast Zone
Sideboard
4 Transmogrify
4 Polymorph
3 Tolaria West
2 Veil of Summer
1 Blightsteel Colossus
1 Jegantha, the Wellspring
The idea here is to mulligan aggressively for [[Violent Outburst]]. Since your deck is 51 lands, you are likely to hit your land drops even on a mulligan to 2 or 1. When you cast Violent Outburst, the Cascade trigger finds Tibalt's Trickery, which targets Violent Outburst to counter it. Trickery goes looking through your deck to find a different named spell. Well, the only option is [[Emrakul, the Aeons Torn]]. You even get the cast trigger on her!
Obviously, this is a glass cannon strategy, but the sideboard offers a slightly different angle for the deck. [[Necromentia]] or similar type effects are game over for this deck in postboard games. This is where the transformational sideboard helps out. The deck has a total of 11 lands that can make creatures, but the only Creature spell in the deck is Emrakul. This means both [[Transmogrify]] and [[Polymorph]] will always find Emrakul if a land was able to create a creature. [[Tolaria West]] helps to find the land necessary for the Polymorph plan to work, and can get [[Blast Zone]] for removal, [[Desolate Lighthouse]] for digging potential, or [[Field of the Dead]] for the long-term grindy plan. [[Veil of Summer]] helps to protect your Polymorph effect. [[Blightsteel Colossus]] is another hit if your opponent tries to be clever and name Emrakul with an extraction effect. [[Jegantha, the Wellspring]] is free in this deck, so there's little downside. Even in Modern, a 5/5 for 5 with upside sometimes gets the job done. You can also you it as the Polymorph target in a pinch!
And there you have it: Tibalt serving you
