    Yeah I lurk there occasionally, NNWO has some pretty interesting ideas. The color-revealing-cost cube was apparently a great success, but I'm too lazy to try it. There's one user there who is onto some really new shit. Let me dig some stuff up...

    So what are these weird expensive lands? So far not seen anything exciting about this set.

    Card/Deck +1/+1 Counters

    Hmm I thought I wrote a post about Ghave. Silly mobile. Anyway, Re: Ghave: I tried it back when I started this thread. It's a bomb. I thought it would cool with other +1/+1 counters cards, but actually it's a house on its own, and annoying and really busted. I cut it after a couple games. But...

    Can't wait to build mono-Gideon midrange in modern. Or just joke about it.

    Probably not, I rarely buy or play video games. That said, I do have a group of people I occasionally game with online, so maybe I will.

    I've been playing it in the alps with 4 people on one computer, with Xbox controllers. We have it hooked up to a swagger out projector and we're playing online. It's so fun! We might play some towerfall today too :D Edit: and we played some gangbeasts, which was hilarious. Yesterday was a...

    Damn, I wish I'd been around. Would have been sweet to meet some more riptiders (riptards?)

    The Quest: Part 2: The End of the Quest

    Seven rides from Belgium to Basel. My favourite was this old Dutch guy in a Bentley who lit up a joint and didn't say much at all. He was very quiet and I couldn't hear a lot of what he said. Then he put on some really loud music, and talked louder, but I couldn't hear him because of the music...

    I definitely want to run Pia and Kiran. I'm going to keep upping my artifact count until a deck magically appears.

    what if it was just a 5/5?

    Card/Deck blue black

    The best deck I ever saw in my cube was a UB tempo deck (gasp! tempo!) - was a lot of disruption: removal, discard (including nezumi shortfang every turn, which was killer), counterspells, and just a few threats that were super resilient: Wydwen, the Biting Gale, for one. I don't remember what...

    Card/Deck Ug... What should I do with my Blue-Green section?

    Grillo should stop playing magic and work on world peace or something.

    Card/Deck Ug... What should I do with my Blue-Green section?

    In a practical sense, tempo is equivalent to speed. A normal game of magic lasts about 8 turns and takes twenty minutes. Each turn has seven phases, roughly equivalent to beats, giving us a cool 105 beats per minute. A tempo player wants to play at a higher tempo than his opponent, ideally 140...

    I like Narset. As I've said before, I like venser a lot, but his -1 ends a lot of games out of the blue that were fun games.
