    General [WAR] War of the Spark

    Sweet lord, that was an awesome teaser trailer! The smoke forming the horns of Bolas at the end, niiiiiiiice :) I also think it's heavily implied Bolas's plan will fail, assuming he's the top candle, and not, in fact, the last candle burning. Hyped!

    Oh yeah, for sure, I counted those as the same fumble, should have been clearer about that :) But yeah, no reason to be ashamed there, it is hard to play a game that requires a decent amount of brainpower and entertain an audience at the same time. Kudos to those who do that successfully!

    That was the only real fumble I spotted though, he made some really good calls later in the video, and playing while streaming is hard regardless. I know our own Aoret brought that up once, when he started streaming. I think PewDiePie did a good job playing the deck all in all. Doesn't mean I...

    I feel the commander product line also added a lot of very cool cards to the format, and I rather WotC be pushing the envelope and sometimes missing the mark than them not trying out anything new at all. Problematic cards can be dealt with through the banlist, mutual agreement with your...

    See, I'm a born optimist, so while I could think of some GRBS examples (and indeed, there is one particular example I do like to bring up every now and then, but it's more about how hypocritical some players can get in a multiplayer game), I prefer to remember the good games (of which there have...

    Commander can be a can full of worms in the wrong playgroup, and the best way to play Magic in the right one. Of all the "mainstream" types of Magic I've tried, it probably has the widest... "fun band"*. That said, when it's good, it's really good :) *Caveat: I've seen some competitive...

    That was almost a sympathetic post Haymaker, until the unnecessary dig at Commander. Let players play the format they love, don't hate on each other! I happen to like playing Commander, and I have a cool playgroup to play it with. Why should I feel guilty for liking Commander, why should I feel...

    General Fight Club

    I do feel the difference between a 2/2 that draws a card and a 3/2 that draws a card and has a relevant creature type is a huge difference at three mana. Incidentally, the deck that cares about that creature type is also the deck that wants to apply early pressure and is likely to cast this card...

    I run Fauna Shanan, never been a problem. She's only a 2/2, after all, and she has an activation cost, however small. You do want to deal with her though.

    General Fight Club

    I don't know. Is the fail state too bad? Still a decent top deck, and with the 3 power it certainly is more relevant on the battlefield.

    No, no, I'm not an eldrazi racist. I'ld eradicate them without prejudice!

    Some other options: Strangleroot Geist is cool with Reckless Abandon, but that's the only synergy in that deck. The double green is also tricky. Kraul Harpooner is pretty great in a list running 17 creatures, some of which want to be in the graveyard, and a lot of which are fragile. You're...

    Samite Pilgrim was pretty good in Invasion block draft.

    Nice one, you both! I would not have gotten that, but it's very recognizable once you see the original card :)

    The Train Station

    You also have to consider the other scenario, where the Demon kills a creature, sacs to itself on upkeep, then gets reanimated to kill another creature. It also seems really strong with cards like Gravecrawler and Reassembling Skeleton, which would be actual "Magical Christmas Land" includes for...

    The Train Station

    I think the answer might, in part, depending on the removal you run. If you've got a decent chunk of instant speed removal that can deal with this in your cube, you can make this into a 2 for 2 with the sacrifice trigger on the stack, leading to some clever counterplay. This is a play pattern...
