shit dude you gonna get yo zealots VAPORIZED by a reaver shot

I wonder what will be printed in Theros block that adequately answers Voice of Resurgence. Or will people actually play Annihilating Fire?

Listening while I type out a monster post. Dragon Quest = Pure Class. I enjoy combo. It's fun to try to assemble and it's fun to watch other people go off. When they're complicated and intricate and risky they create stories about how smart the players are. So I tried out a lot of stuff...

LEAVE LOXODON SMITER ALONE! I've never been a big fan of color hosers. I am happy about them being on already-playable bodies so that you don't feel like an idiot for maindecking them, though.

That seems pretty ridiculous. How much harder could it be to save the card name in the decklist, and consider decklists to be inviolate?

Well, with the change, the player on the other side has the potential to turn off the information leak by playing a flying blocker. Subgame? It's probably not that big a deal unless you run stuff like Cabal Therapy. Except that phasing doesn't trigger etb/ltb abilities, that'd get the point...

*bashful joke about stealing my tech* I dunno, I kind of like to have people pay more for their information than fringe benefit an on-curve aggro creature. Maybe "When ~ damages a player, that player reveals his or her hand"? I like the card but the bookkeeping seems odious. oh god. I think a...

The draft has an extra first pack that consists of Scheme cards and 'Goal' cards. A Goal card is Scheme-sized and has a difficult condition that must be met before it can be 'Scored', which allows the player to play a random card from their Scheme deck (minimum three Schemes). A goal is...

YES! Mountain! An autocombo with Sneak Attack!

re: fixing, borderposts are inexpensive and fun to play with. I like them a lot more than cluestones.

Whoops I accidentally a planeswalker: Bonus:

The cube contains no blue or green cards. There is a strong artifact theme overlapping with tokens, with two copies of Shrine of Loyal Legions and four copies of Kuldotha Rebirth in the 360. Picking Myr Servitor gets you another one free; there are two in the cube. Niche archetypes include Ion...

I have the distinct feeling that there's an interesting story behind that first situation that you're coyly omitting.

CubeTutor link! I want to thank Jason Waddell for the original inspiration for this idea. What is this idea? You should be able to draft this deck: without ruining everyone else's fun. As far as the thought experiment goes, I think I'd enjoy drafting this now and then but not as a main...

Comma usage in non-formal environments has the sole purpose of communicating pauses in speech. If you would pause in those places when speaking the sentence aloud, the commas are correct. Were we writing papers for university, I might suggest: "But then, of course, I actually can't spell the...

As written, they discard that card. If that behavior is undesirable, we could say: You choose exactly two nonland cards from it. If you do, that player discards one of those cards.

How about: Thoughtlasher :1::b::b: Creature - Elemental When ~ enters the battlefield, choose a card type other than land. Target opponent reveals his or her hand. You choose a card with the chosen type from it. That player discards that card. Evoke :b: 2/1 Too much choice? I think the evoke...

Maybe a format without high-cost attacking bombs but with a lot of other synergies, like blinking effects? You could use as the high end creatures only those that have neat effects, not those that put away games just for hitting the table or attacking. If the best you can do is jump from 5 to...

It's completely possible that several of my custom cards are too strong. My feeling has been recently that midrange, especially Naya, is so good and so often available that many players, having picked an aggressive white card early, are not looking at blue or black. The most recent patch...

A couple of years ago Azen showed up to our local venue (at that time usually dominated by Chu Dat playing Kirby of all things) and perfected me repeatedly with horrible characters as a warm up. But I've never seen Ken in person so I guess you win the nerd cred war. Is that a thing? Are we...
