    General 'walkers and "everything costs 4"

    I'm just going to point out that Koth needs to be answered in literally 2 turns or he gives you one of the most inevitable emblems ever. Hellrider might deal more damage that turn, but unless the game is ALWAYS ending when you hit turn 4, Koth is a lot more resiliant

    One solution to creating custom planeswalkers that nobody appreciates is to use existing lore to base the character off of. This can come across as a little trite as someone's favorite legend gets a mary sue spark, but how do we feel about this alternative gideon? Gideon, Justicesomething...

    Card/Deck Why Are All Six Drops In Magic Terrible

    I think the point is that staff is way more reasonable when it costs 2 or 4 or something. Not when hardcast

    Card/Deck Why Are All Six Drops In Magic Terrible

    Staff is vintage playable because of Mishra's workshop :P

    1) Extracting has the same problem as milling, in that it doesnt affect the board or your clock. I like it as a rider on random spells, (Eg: Terror + extract, Raise Dead + extract, etc) but on it's own it seems too small. If Braincull did something small, like "target player discards a card" or...

    I actually just meant the evasion, but interesting idea :P Is it a little too cute?

    I too like faerie conclave. Red: could probably be a stormblood berserker type guy. I'm thinkin :r::2: to activate, since green should probably get the big creature. White: I like lifelink better in black actually. Maybe youthful knight, then black gets child of night?

    Braincull: As mentioned, splice onto black is okay, splice onto instant or sorcery is better, and this card doesn't really do too much :( Descend into the Catacombs: It seems weird to interplay the deck that has enough creatures to wrath and the deck that wants to wrath, and I'm not sure I like...

    Love it! It might be able to be Hybrid Hybrid. Maybe. And man I want it to be :P Rare Cube: Maybe I'm spoiled by thundermaw, but he almost wants another keyword for me (I'd love haste, but maybe firebreathing?) Pauper Cube: As an uncommon or something he makes more sense, and seems fine. Real...

    See this is the hilarious thing, I feel capsize is either absolutly horrible or stupidly overpowered, and I've seen both sides. I think either way it's not particularly interesting, so I'm not at much of a loss over not running it, but I think it's kinda hilarious :P

    I've never loved tefari, and while lost truths is a cool card, I love that prognostic sphinx protects itself well-ish, and his beard. Strangely, I haven't played constructed magic since...Mirrordin? No I played a bit during ravnica. I actually thought Maraduer was kinda mediocre until I...

    I'm not particularly worried, since it can only ever be more interactive than armageddon, an effect I'm mostly happy with. CML: Also since my Nether Void will be white, no need to worry about which decks it goes in. Should it be WW2? I've heard a lot of talk that geddon would be a worse card...

    Recurring Nightmare, Opposition, Profane Command, The modern Swords and "Horshit Artifact Mana" all saw play in their respective standard formats, though Opposition had to be reprinted in 7th first. is guul draz assassin that great? My usual metric for level up guys is only half weather...
