    I can't speak for the whole site, but I don't really mind uncounterable. All cards have their strengths and weaknesses, it's just a question of whether these strengths and weaknesses are interesting. FWIW the "uncounterability" clause is irrelevant most of the time, and usually doesn't win...

    General Is too good fixing causing 3-color good stuff?

    Too much fixing causing 3-color? Yes Too much fixing causing "good stuff"? Not really. Let's be clear, you can have two color "good stuff" decks too. How much of a focused game plan your decks have depends on how your synergies and themes are implemented, how they're communicated, and how your...

    Do you guys agree with the assertion that Flametongue Kavu is boring? I can't imagine cutting it, and always enjoy casting it.

    Okay, this card makes me want to break into customs for the first time. It's so simple, so elegant. Lots of play and synergy.

    I like that the Goblin has the Wall of Roots feature of being able to plan interesting sequences that involve activations on both your turn and your opponent's.

    The Quest: Part 2: The End of the Quest

    I've started picking up hitchhikers when I see them, but more out of a sense of obligation to James. This morning I dropped James off at an Antwerp highway entrance ramp, so he'll be off discovering a cross-section of humanity again.

    Not Talrand, Talrand's Invocation. It's a question of 4 flying power across 2 bodies, or a bear + two flying 1/1's, with an optional ability to make things unblockable, at a cost. Obviously things like devotion, Prowess, delver / Augur, blink, Pod, etc. will mess with this (plus the value...

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

    I remember this being described as "three ways to counter a burn spell". Not the most exciting charm.
