Do people running 3-color cubes run Deathmark style cards?

I like how part of your decklist is in a different font.

Yeah, watching LSV play vintage to me is more entertaining than VSL. VSLSVSLSV When you're playing you play around a lot of theoretical unknowns to give yourself small theoretical edges that might not be relevant in a given situation. When watching VSL there was a lot of "he will Ancestral...

Yeah, it's not that the games ended on T1, but somehow they lacked some meaningful tension. What was appealing about the presentation though was that the commentators didn't try to talk down to you or sell you on something. That was pretty refreshing.

Not to downplay the skill involved. And I watched all the matches, which is way more than I can say of other formats. But there was still something a bit offputting. I think part of it is that, when you watch someone stream you have a clear "hero", but I generally didn't have a rooting...

For some reason watching VSL made me less interested in ever playing the format. Being able to see both hands simultaneously revealed how few meaningful decision points there really were in most games. Maybe that's just Magic in general. It could also be the level of play, with relatively few...

Do you mean the one that doesn't have Outlast?

I like how this gets around the problem of Enchantments having a narrow range of answers in a random environment. It's not a universal buff, but allows for more play. Random tangential idea, since this reminds me of Netrunner in a way: CARDNAME Pay X: Destroy CARDNAME. Either player may...

I post assorted content on my new website, americantwerp.com.

Pay 1 life?

Uninspiring without the acquisition of new property?

Yeah, I'm with Eric here. A game where nobody can kill each other, or somebody just wins easily by virtue of having a PW sounds pretty dumb.

How often would Abyssal gate end with somebody decking out?

I've done it, it's fine. I don't really have any strong feelings for or against. I don't think it adds a ton to the environment, but I love me some Cobra.

This will probably never happen, but I had an idea for a long-term campaign format. Basically you start out with some basic starter deck (maybe 1-color, maybe more, tbd), and have to the side tons of binders filled with cards, each card has a price value attached to it. Every week players...

What warriors do people actually play?

I like that this thread is blowing up. I'm not really sure what we're talking about, but let's keep doing it.

We had a scapeshift thread once, but the best idea I had for it was a narrow finisher for landfall aggro. Which is kind of a shit reason to include a card.

Our servers are fucked, sorry.

Didn't we say it was good?
