No no, that's what I'm saying. None of us are wrong. Wizards of the Coast themselves are inconsistent in the way they order their enemy color pairs.

See, I use a similar pattern in my head @Velrun, but it goes like this: Objective: We want to create an ordered list of color combinations. Start: We start in W. This is our initial base color. Rule 1: We cycle through the color wheel, shifting the base color by one position each time. Rule 2...

Except it doesn't go in a perfect wheel, it jumps around across the color wheel. For monocolor, you go from W to U to B to R to G, forming a perfect wheel. For allied guilds, you go from WU to UB to BR to RG to GW, once again forming a perfect wheel. The W in WU is adjacent to the U in UB...

I voted Very limited & I don't play Arena. I did play it in the past, but I quit because the economy is atrocious unless you play a metric fucktonne of games every week. I like to play a bunch of different weird decks, and Arena doesn't let me do that unless I invest a lot of time and/or money...

You might notice that my conclusion was pretty tongue in cheek ;) In reality, there appears to be no set order for the enemy color guilds. If there would be a set order, you would expect WotC employees to be aware of it, after all, and the fact that I was able to find four different articles...

It's also the ordering I've always used. W > U > B > R > G WU > UB > BR > RG > GW WB > UR > BG > RW > GU The leading color determines the order of the wheel. You'll notice that that order is now consistent on CubeCobra. The previous order goes around the wheel linking up the last color of the...

yo! draft no play for me if you need an 8th man :)

Where do you put cards like Unsummon, Remove Soul, Agonizing Remorse and Giant Growth in that count (i.e. bounce, counterspells and discard effects that can target creatures, and combat tricks)?

I count five colors worth of spells in that deck! Works for me!

Bring to Light is a signpost to signal that 5-color is a supported archetype.

I watched it in a New York theater with some friends while on holiday. Half of us (including me) were in absolute stitches, the other half were looking at us dumbfounded, wondering what was so funny about the movie :') And yeah, Brad Pitt is great in this, as is Clooney :D

I don't think Bloodbraid Elf is a 15th pick kind of card in any cube that has good fixing. I do agree that Bring to Light is more demanding, but the payoff is pretty big. If five color is at all feasible, BtL should be a good card.

O Brother, Where Art Thou? is one of my favorite movies! Great acting, great soundtrack. I love all the little references to Homer's Odyssey buried in the movie :) James, what did you think of Burn After Reading. I loved that one as well. The Coen brothers definitely made some great movies :D

Fuck. I discovered Miracle Musical yesterday, and they have exactly one album, and it's amazing, and it's not available on CD. I hear you, you bunch of youngsters. Suck it, I still like CD's :p

1988... let's see. I bet I can make people (other than you probably) feel young if I say I turned 7 years old that year :D

Velrun and Train are correct. I feel like a lot of people are going to miss that. I think this is an unforeseen and unfortunate side effect of renaming 'converted mana cost' to 'mana value'. It's now less distinguishable from 'mana cost', despite sharing less words...

Magic missile shoots three darts by default nowadays, but you can aim them anywhere, and the spell can be upscaled to shoot additional missiles: https://roll20.net/compendium/dnd5e/Magic Missile#content. Another characteristic of the spell is that it damage can't be prevented normally, so if you...

My bad, I meant getting restricted.

Portable Hole is a famous magic item from D&D, it's not a spell, so that's why they made it an artifact. Kithkin isn't a D&D race, halfling is, so that's why they made it a halfling. They're not killing Magic's flavor, they're making a set in the D&D universe which has existing lore and flavor...

Urza's Saga seems predestined for a ban getting restricted in Vintage, doesn't it?
