Name Your Deck Better

General forum

Now, I understand that a lot of people play the color combination of WBG (also known as Junk), and like to make the name of their deck incorporate the word Junk or relevant words.

I just want all of you to know that that is not clever. Do something else. Your lack of creativity is bad and you should feel bad.

Note that this post is entirely in jest and not meant to offend anybody

Izzet really something that Junks up your day?

Both of these things need to stop, +1 this thread X 1 million.

Izzet is really BUGging you that much that you have to complain about all the Junk names on here? Why not just shove these complaints underneath a RUG?

Honestly, I see no problem with bad puns.

People can (and will) name their decks whatever they want, no matter how many times threads like this are created.

Or you can you know, just ignore them.

Forced creativity is bad creativity. If a pun is all you can make, so be it.

Sounds like OP made a gruuel ultimatum to the community.

Honestly, some of the puns are actually ok. What really grinds my gears though, is when people think that the deck that they netdecked is completely original and shocking to everyone.

"Mono Blue Devotion? In Standard?!?!?!?!?111!?!?!1?!!?!!?"

Alright, so now I have a bunch of deck inspiration. Granted, they're just colors, but I know that I'm definitely playing Revel of the Fallen God , aka Gruul Ultimatum.

@thispersonisagenius
I'd be totally down to see that card be called "Gruul Ultimatum". Just sayin', though I'd never play it. Like, ever. I tend to avoid both of those colors.

Oh, and Revel of the Fallen God still dies to Bile Blight ... or was it Doom Blade ?

All I ask is that people use some sort of spell check.. the spelling and grammar on this site is terrible sometimes..

July 21, 2014 5:46 p.m.

I'm fine with those kind of names, I just really hate the "rape house deluxe" or "naked boobies" deck names.

Really not a positive representation of the magic community.

I'm fine with pun deck names, just because I am a fan of puns. I find stupid jokes like that actually funny.

Why are you so JUNDging? ESPERcially when it comes to JUNKy deck names? IZZET really such a problem? You just have NAYA shred of humor for puns? I don't find them so GRUULing. I mean if it BUGS you so much you KHAN ignore them. Now we need to stop with all of this BANTer and just enjoy them for what they are.

Nicely done.

Definitely my least favorite thing on TappedOut is when people make a "meh" or just straight up bad deck and just because of the deck's name they are highly rated. Or when you search up a tag (budget for example) and the highest rated deck on the list consists of 420x [Crappy common card name here] and that's it. The name thing is 50-50 for me. A lot of times if your deck doesn't have a snappy title, people will ignore it. In some occasions it's a plus but with the Izzet and Junk pun drilled into the ground, maybe just naming your deck what it is is the right thing to do.

Btw putting certain words in your title (i.e. rape) just for views is in bad taste and doesn't look good for the site as a whole.

@LusciousCabbage You must really love Shadowborn Apostle decks, huh?

Bad puns are fine, Cliche puns are not fine.
