    General [ Riptide Weekly] Saturday 30 Jan @ 2PM EST Registration

    I'd like to get in on this but I'll probably be pre-releasing on Saturday, and the one I go to usually starts late in the day so I might not be back in time. Can you put me down provisionally and I'll post in the thread on the day as to whether I'm going to make it or not?

    Card/Deck Counterspells

    Counterspell is kind of in a strange spot where it's almost worse to cast it on turn 2 because you would rather cast something like Mana Leak that is going to run out of utility later in the game. So I don't think the double blue requirement is all that bad at all - even if you don't cast it...

    Sets [OGW] Oath of the Gatewatch Spoiler Thread

    I kind of like the story being focused around the planeswalkers as it allows diverse worlds whilst still having a common thread of familiarity. The only thing that worries me is that standard from now on is going to be all about my planeswalkers facing down their planeswalkers in every match...

    General Sunday January 10th Draft Sign-ups (2PM EST)

    Strangely, looking through our decks it doesn't look like anyone apart from me was playing red, and for me it was just a splash. I think yan had some red in his 5cc deck too? I do remember seeing very late Lightning Bolt and Chain Lightning, which I thought was unusual.

    General CBS

    Oh, there were quite a few I'd forgotten about. Perhaps what I was thinking was it kills every common creature except for a few that you have to jump through hoops to get - I think of those you pointed out, only Gorehorn Minotaurs would be a 5/5 on turn 6 or 7 when you cast Wildfire, followed...

    It's worth noting that in MM2 Wildfire kills almost every nonrare creature and every common creature (I think), which might make it particularly good.

    I've been looking through this and whilst it's not something I usually notice all that much, some of the flavour text is just awful. I already pointed out Oath of Chandra, but I'm only down to blue so far and Ancient Crab and Unity of Purpose are both just so clunky. Oh, not to mention...

    I don't think I've ever seen a Master Quest run, so I'm looking forward to that. Banjo Kazooie is one of my favourites as well but I actually don't think it makes a great speed game.
