Primal Command has been an integral part of many 3 - 0 decks over here. You all are missing out.

Utility Land Draft + Primeval Titan = ????

I dunno, my green decks are always trying to ramp to 5, where Cobra is a boss. Do you run Prime Time?

Tangle Wire is a fun and unique card without being oppressive. In my cube all the decks are very low CMC so it usually creates very interesting board states.

That sounds like way too much effort for a statistic that nobody but you will track. But whatever boils your spaghetti man.

I don't know about you fuckers, but I love me some Loam + Mox Diamond decks.

This is one of those formats that make me feel like a scrub, in the Sirlin definition of the word. Like, when I played it, it was really fun because we all sucked and were just scratching our heads and throwing like, Scavenging Oozes onto the table and casting Ancestral Recall every chance we...

I know you have rants on here about it, but one of the things we touched on was having the protagonist make progress while not making progress, how people don't really change. One piece of media that I thought handled this well was Season 1 of Lena Dunham's Girls. Lots of stuff happens, but you...

I believe it's convention for things phrases like "to conclude" and "tl; dr" to come at the end of a post. :) But I'm glad you like Dan Harmon.

I'm a big fan of the "do not invite back" approach.

Yeah, TE decks always struggled against Cloudpost decks, as they were too grindy without a sufficiently potent endgame. Nobody could out-endgame Cloudpost. Storm was also a bad matchup, if we didn't draw sideboarded hand disruption. But both of those are gone now.

I think it was the Jennifer intro that really struck me as excessively long without giving me enough insight into who she actually was as a character. There are a lot of random facts there that my brain just doesn't know what to do with.

Chapter 22: Is this supposed to be Leonard's grandmother's house? Can you state that explicitly somewhere?

I tried to make it work in Pauper constructed for waaaay too long.

+1 for Tortured Existence.

Okay, I read it all while sick in bed over the weekend. Talked with CML a bit over the weekend, interested in hearing other opinions.

Re: Nemesis, I think depending on the speed of your cube, having a relatively noninteractive finisher (see: Sphinx of Jwar Isle) is fine, provided that there are ways to pressure, race, etc. You can interact with your opponent without interacting with all of their resources. It comes down to...

Oni was shit even in my shit cube.

I've played it once and really liked it, but as a relative newcomer to Magic it was super difficult. I read an article once on the format (I think it was SCG) that was really good. Anybody have the link?

Have any of you other nerds read CML's book?
