Dies to Removal

im glad you have drive to focus on the 'intricacies' of a mono red deck. i posted a link in the strategies section that will help you with understanding on when you move from aggressive to control under certain circumstances. although its an old article using dated cards, the point still sticks. i b...

it'll be just like the singleton articles of yesteryear....

welcome!!

yeah he drafted all 3 packs. I believe he lost in the finals to a W/R aggro almost mirror deck. but he did pull off a turn 5 kill in the second match which was pretty brutal. all commons. =)

you are youtube famous!! =)

I think this is a very good video that helps give an of how you don't necessarily need a rare/mythic bomb to win this set in draft. Dude drafts red splash blue super aggro with commons and does well. He also gives a nice explanation on why he picked certain cards. http://www.channelfireball.com/vide...

hahaha i thought that was just out here! Everyone call's him Gary! lol.

I think most of the players here like to play in limited tournaments. Here is a good article that explains the theory behind different strategies. I hope it helps: http://www.channelfireball.com/articles/stark-reality-drafting-the-hard-way/ Here is a follow up article that he wrote: http://www.chann...

Yeah, thats typically the strategy that most players use.. I just was surprised when LP was explaining from his experience he would force white to use the heroic trigger. each color has a pretty good uncommon spell that targets 2 creatures.. so splashing would be easy if you picked up one of those. ...

has forcing your color ahead of time worked in your favor often? tonight will be my first FNM that im going to have a chance to draft theros... apart from suggesting a second look at the white cards in the set, what advice can you guys give on cards that tend to get passed that may be more powerful ...

i love it. =) thanks z

i loved deftones since adrenaline came out. it was featured in this skate shop that was next to my church, i heard it and never looked back. probably played that cd 20 times when i first heard it. engine #9 is the reason why i wanted to play guitar. chi was part of the reason why i loved music and h...

So. Gain four life...pay one mana...draw a card...and everyone else loses one life...?

...right?

You gain 2 life if he is in play OR 2 life if he is in commander zone. you will not be able to pay (1) and draw a card from activated ability if he is not in play.

One mistake I see a lot of at local tournaments is the idea of who has control of the current board state. This is important to know because it will directly effect decisions and plays. This concept has been around since the beginning of magic and even though the article is old, its a very important...

until you try legacy =)

curious what part of east texas are you from?

I just explained why what you're doing means you are an asshole. You're doing the magic card equivalent of trading the island of Manhattan for some turquoise beads. ding ding! Sharks and people with no morals will always find a way to justify to themselves why taking advantage of another person is ...
