    Mine was, but I just sort of stuck with my "Build a fair deck and preach" strategy

    Yeah. I think the rules council has kinda given up to a point on this, since most of the banlist decisions are "Yeah nobody can ignore how stupid this thing is" and less trying to actually steer the format toward being healthy and fun. Maybe this whole "Play with non idiots" is the way to go :P

    Honestly I think the broken part is the never having to pay general tax (also costing 3 mana. Edric aint' no slouch either.) Most of the games I played with the unmodified precon didn't have many sweepers, but the fact that one combat she got killed 3 times and I still got my 6 twiddle triggers...

    General Print this Wizards! (So I can put it in my cube)

    I figure ZZW or ZZZ at least woke people up. Most draft formats have been pretty durdely, and I think it's refreshing to see a format where 1 drops matter and you can actually beat midrange with aggro. Full block scars was a little all over the place, mechanically, and poison won over no...

    Damnit they keep banning cards I get foils of :P I mean Primeval Titan slot pretty well into my cube, but I don't think Sylvan Primordial has the same fate Kinda the problem with EDH is that the legwork of banning every single tutor is just unwieldly, so you have to rely on people not being...

    Oooo! Can we have the BUG one act like gravecrawler? Like, cast it from your graveyard if you control a multicolored perm? That's probably super broken but man that would be soo cool :D

    General Print this Wizards! (So I can put it in my cube)

    WRB could be battle cry I think. Those are pretty combat oriented cards. I'd move BUG to discard a card, and make the UWR one to draw a card. That is a powerful thing though, I'm a little wary like, compare Vedalken Heretic (A card that never saw play, sure, but still!). Are those kind of...

    General Cross Mechanic Transparency

    It might just be easier to erratta ion storm to say "counter" instead of "charge or +1/+1 counter" Plus: Now incidental synergy with level up guys

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Me? Probably not. But it does lead to akward moments in legacy and sometimes cube where he is the response to a goblin lackey, or stromkirk noble and it gets real awkward. (DRS is an elf, not a human. HA!)

    I actually like evolve, it rewards jamming creatures and good sequencing. Mostly volt charge. 3 mana bolt size up a few dudes seems like a fine spell to me.

    General How to make red aggro more fun

    So 43 cards. Doesn't that make them worse? Unless you draw all 4 of them as a single card?

    Technically kitchen table is a format. I think that's their fallback.

    I've got a buddy who runs a full playset and lovesit he goes pretty deep on this theme though, lots of proliferate, etc

    General How to make red aggro more fun

    so like... 4 squadron hawks in your deck = 36 card minimum?

    I hate everything you like

    Yeah twelve was a sweet outlet for the min maxer in me. there's tons of sequence breaking you can do and cool ways to exploit what is a really malleable system. but basically every game mechanic is a guide dang it. I remember the begining of the exploiting was be at singe digit up in the second...

    Whip is one if those cards (like aetherling) that I dont want it to be good.

    Oh god 12. Rant time: 12 is bascially everything wrong with RPGs concentrated. -The ultimate weapon (Zodiac Spear) is only accessable if you DONT OPEN 4 unmarked, unremarkable chests within the first 10 hours of the game. Said chests have totally normal loot in them, and no alert is made when...
