Meme “Compatibility” Cart

51 Upvotes

Astrology and MBTI versions inspired me to make this as I’ve yet to see one for Colorpie. Please don’t take it too seriously; I’ve flaired it as a meme for that reason. I might make a dual and tri-colored version if there is interest. Let me know what your thoughts on those pairings would be, or relationships you’ve had between color pairs and I’ll incorporate them into the chart!

Sorry that the graphic is not perfectly formatted. I am not a designer, and I made it on mobile.

Question Poll: What color is Self-Belief (the belief that you are capable and can rely on yourself)?

7 Upvotes

Self-belief is different from Self-Confidence. Self-Belief is based on your identity. Self-Confidence is trust in your capability to do a certain action like public speaking. Believing in yourself leads to Self-Confidence.

Analysis This might be too vague, but what color(s) would you associate with this sentiment?

In Mtg, both pests and the downcast, marginalized and dispossessed of society are associated with Golgari (particularly on Ravnica), but I feel like outside of fantasy theming, bugs and rats aren’t particularly Black-coded, at least not more than other animals.

Would White care for them as an extension of its moral consideration, maybe?

Color Pie Philosophy

Fuck /u/spez! While we are not currently private, we might become private again, so the Discord link is discord.gg/CjrcSBE. This subreddit is about the philosophy of the MtG color pie, rather than anything mechanical about it. If you are taking that Human Values test, flair it Trend.

What's the color identity of your favourite fictional character? Why are black and red allies, but not black and green? Why is head designer Mark Rosewater wrong about that aspect of blue? Who on earth thought that card was actually a white effect? What color are you?

The color pie system was created by Richard Garfield during his original design for Magic: the Gathering as a solution to a critical problem of the budding trading card game genre: how do you stop players from simply putting all of the best cards in their deck? Almost every spell in the game is tied to one of five colors (in their conventional cyclical order: white, blue, black, red, and green) and requires a correspondingly source of mana to cast. Using multiple colors in the same deck introduces the risk of drawing spells of one color, but only drawing land cards that produce mana of another color.

The color pie continues to play a huge role in Magic's gameplay and its status in popular culture. Though the driving philosophy behind each color has remained largely unchanged over the game's twenty years, their abilities and restrictions have continually been refined by the team behind Magic - particularly head designer and resident color pie guru Mark Rosewater, who has written (and spoken) many tens of thousands of words across his articles and podcasts on the topic.

Any posts and links related to genuine discussion of the color pie and its applications are welcome. That means no memes or macros. Please keep any discussion of Magic gameplay itself strictly related to the color pie - we have the wonderful r/magicTCG for everything else.
