Its not a good sign when one of your sets best cards is a lightning angel with bad art. :(

So, now that I have a semi-static format, I was wondering what you guys thought about meta evolution. 1) How has your meta evolved or changed as players became more familiar with it? Which archetypes have grown or fallen out of favor? 2) Have certain cards moved up or down in your pick order...

Yeah, the power level in the set is wrapped up in the shards, so its a bit hard to patch over the best bits into cube. Even then, I don't feel the set is really pushing the boundaries. On the other hand, this thread let me talk about how great chrono trigger is, so there is that.

That would be a nice piece to have in a U/W spells matter/tokens theme. As mentioned, you probably would want weaker overall removal for it to really shine. It will be outclassed by condemn, path or STP.

If you can cast this in any decent self-mill deck, you should be able to win the game on the following turn. However, if you do not have decent self-mill decks, it’s horrible. I think that’s a pretty thorough summarization of the card.

Hmmm....I was imagining it more as B/u/g finisher, as bug has the self-mill, the ability to tutor for it and the ability to bring it back from the yard if milled. As a finisher in that deck, it dosen't have to worry about delving away the decks gameplan. I'm having a hard time imagining it in...

A self-mill deck should have many more than 4 cards in the graveyard at that point in the game. The spell also moves at instant speed.

Normally, I don't like delve with my current self-mill setup: I run too many cards that care about # of creatures/lands in the yard and too many flashback spells, for even tombstalker to be worth it. There is also the issue of the self-mill deck milling its own delve cards, though their are...

hmmm...what am I missing with this one? Broken in is an English expression, no?

I really liked Frank Karsten's analysis of prowess, found in this article. Exerts below Fun stuff. Also neat how they are bleeding the shards together.

fyi you can pause combat in KOTOR and KOTOR 2, than assign commands. In KOTOR 1, the min/max thing to do is to keep force speed on and spam flurry while wielding a double bladed light saber. In KOTOR 2, just spam force lightning. I actually thought both systems were reasonable to min/max, but...

Generally, I find that video games don't age particularly well, so its more a question of which one can hold my attention the best. Thats usually something like ff6, ff7, ff9, KOTOR, or KOTOR 2. I can just sort of zone out and enjoy the music or storyline. Sometimes I just want a...

With all of those games, you kind of need to have played it during the actual era i.m.o. I mean, its just not reasonable to expect a 20 something or 30 something to be blown away by the type of stories they were telling on a 16 bit video game platform marketed to kids.

That’s ok, I rented it from blockbuster (that’s right, block buster), immediately decided that FF6 was better, and didn't get past the first hour of gameplay. I played it many years later and learned to appreciate it more.

Its on the snes. Its often mentioned in discussions regarding the best game of all time, best games on the platform, and best rpg ever made. I may have to take your nerd card from you.

Its chrono trigger ;)

Ahadaban, are you still updating your cube on cubetutor? The little tweeks are always fun to see.

Exactly. I love how it naturally fits into its color shard. BUG is the self-mill color combination, to the point where it being a three color card doesn’t even really matter for cubes running those kinds of effects. I feel the same way about the RWB mythic, but not sure I like the combination...

According to a quick copy paste to word, the original article is 1866 words, your version of it is 3493. While I enjoyed your satire, it was a bit long, and I ended up skimming most of it. It probably should be edited down a bit, for ease of reading.
