What makes you tick?

[TreeSmoker]

To me its people that dump hundreds upon hundreds of dollars into a deck just to prove they're better than everyone else yet it's just money

And the fact that when i ask someone what deck they're using i get the response "i dont know, my friend made it and I'm just playing it"
Where's the skill in that? It's not even fun to play somebody else's deck.

Well that's my rant.
What's yours?

[ibtrickey]

Haha.. I make all my own decks:)
I have people who play others decks
I may take an idea but I change it a lot..

I hate it when people tap permanents in different directions or tap them less than 90°. Also when people aren't using the exact inverse layout that I am.

I hate it when people don't stack lands. I'll answer this for a friend of mine even though he's not on here: when people play using ugly lands/theros lands

Agree.

[Kaworu, the Fifth Child]

When people turn me into clocks. Ugh...

[InfinitiveDivinity]

When I play supremely cocky opponents. To the point where they are literally not even paying attention to the game but are instead chatting with another player. Those victories are the sweetest.

Threads that should be named 'What Grinds my Gears' really grind my gears.

Anyways, people that don't actually know what their cards do, especially in EDH.  While I understand it when people borrow decks, you built the deck, you should know it inside and out. Especially in EDH, it's a pain when people have to take time and be like 'wait, does this actually do what I think it does?'

I also hate the annoying d bags that sit there and talk to your opponent and start talking crap about your plays.
I just think " you want to do this for me?" And the people that invade your play area with elbows and hands. One guy just reached across the table one night with his whole upper torso and it was extremely annoying
Judge didnt let him draft that night

Lol I recently started building decks for friends because everyone agrees I'm the best deckbuilder of the group.

I only net decked once and regretted it. What really gets me going with magic is when someone is like "Yeah I haven't lost in two weeks" and then they win. I also build all my decks and have a good time of it. What really ticks me off is when someone is sitting across the table with their legacy deck UNSLEEVED! I also get ticked off when someone asks to play my deck and I ask which one  and the response I get is "that aggroey one". Most of my decks are aggro.

What ticks me off is when I build a fun combo deck and the player I am playing against starts telling me without any ques how it won't top 8 a ptq.
Or when I am playing my storm deck and people just hate on it.
But mostly when a new player comes around and starts to ask questions about the game and people won't give them the time of day.

But he didn't ask for the time of d-

Oh, never mind...

Oh or if I'm playing in an fmn and someone is playing a deck they clearly spent time building and doesn't come prepared with counters or tokens and without asking reaches to use mine!
