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?

hey guyz. so i turned in a characteristic CML performance at the SCG opens, starting 5-1 and dropping at 5-4 in standard and playing excellent magic at legacy for four rounds before fucking up in a fashion that brought about much self-loathing. it was very "me in 2011" and I'll try to do better...

So CML, approximately what percentage of your book is fictional?

My problem with Plow Under and its ilk is that the card produced bad games of Magic. It either ended things in short order or did very little. Design-wise I consider Primal Command to be strictly superior.

Right. I think this is a good dynamic.

Kind of hate Shudder as a card.

Yeah, but if you sac the enchantment post combat pre-end you get a twofer. 4/1 Token for 1R? Test it? i would play that card. Maybe.

Apparently the northwestern OkCupid market is filled with MPDGs.

Looks like we have our first forum contest. Actually that would be the worst.
