I'm really starting to hate FNM. I keep thinking its a social event where I could potentially make friends, but it is doing the opposite. I hate talking to the guys there. For every cool dude there is fifteen assholes.

Play online
Get into roleplaying and find people through that
Levi Fisher
Online isn't easy when you are a mobilefag And I'm making my own DnD group, because I can't find one. I live in America's butthole. The south. If it isn't guns, trump, jesus, or manly nobody is interested
Hudson Harris
Ooof, that shit sucks homie.
Well I wish you luck on creating the group. I've found people are surprisingly receptive to roleplaying and such so long as you get them at the table and playing.
Eli Torres
To be fair, I can kinda understand wanting everyone to use a playmat. In the scenario where you open a Foil Jace and a Jace, It would be shit if you had trouble picking up the cards and flicked or damaged the edges, which is easy enough to do on an untextured table. It just avoids accidental awkwardness where someone gets passed a mythic that is now damaged. that being said, I think I'd worry about it more if we were redrafting Rares and you decided to play without sleeves.

I'd be more concerned that you stooped to playing in a venue that redrafts rares
Justin Wood
When you play in a community of competitive players who all want to improve their game by rewarding those who do well in their pods, but the shop cannot afford much prize support, then you redraft rares. Atleast, that's our solution.
Most the time I'd 100% agree with you, but everyone knows the players who goto the shop, so we never get the "opened an avacyn, I drop" scenario because no one would play with them again. Mind you, we only redraft rares if everyone at the table if everyone agrees that's what they wanna do, otherwise we just draft normally.
