Dies to Removal

Happy birthday platypus. Or should I say Agent P?

I've since trained myself to be pretty normal overall. It's certainly deliberate though. Normal is overrated. Amen to that. Normality are the shackles in which complacence and ennui fester. Unyoke yourself from societal expectation! Grow and thrive in the unique manner defined only by yourself. Lif...

Heres a cooling off - Just got this in my FB chat: "i think he's coming over tomorrow before i go to work but we could go on a date? go back to my place... take our clothes off... try out the 200feet of rope...." Life is more fun when you decide normal is overrated and extend the middle to...

Sometimes I think YOLO is Carpe Diem for the unintelligent masses.

Happy Birthday Johnny_Spike. For the record, you guys are my favorite group of glorious bastards. I love how our clan seems to be applying more science to the field of MTG than any other group out there that I know of. I devour these types of articles and love opening other people's eyes to how much...

My Non FNM night was....well, pretty damn good. Instead of going to the movies I proposed a different activity for straight 2 hrs. Who knew in laws in the next room was such an aphrodisiac? /redthirstgrin

lorddax

Hell I might get into MODO first, that way I can practice standard/draft at home and not have to leave my girl to go play standard. Plus the appeal of getting good sexy enough to be able to free-roll my way through events with ticket rewards is pretty. Fixed that for you. And for the record, it tak...

Also the fact that initiative can cheat sparktropper thru the phases seems to make for some good board states.

Seems that legion's initiative may be better than we first thought

Going to a beer exhibition with two of my best friends tonight....should be an evening. Fixed that for you, because all you'll remember is that something happened after work. Also which videos would you say are the best drafting vids to start with on MJs twitch? Thinking about trying to draft a lot...

I need to keep a closer eye on the threads, you guys seem to all congregate at the times when I'm away from the site. @Kaze - As a guy who was in a relationship with a coke addict, cut your losses now. The longer someone stays the worse it gets. Addicts don't clean up because someone tells them too,...

The only acceptable response to a question from your girlfriend is a slow unzipping of your jeans.
Why does it have to stop at girlfriend? I think from now on, I'm going to answer EVERY question like this.

Sir do you know why I pulled you over?

Titles and taglines of the redthirst movie... Thirst - Come get it. Stamped - Every man leaves a mark on the world, the greats leave a stamp. The Fires of Salvation - Ask not for whom the pole trolls. Whispers of Fire - Far more than just the tip Totem Pole - We all have gods of worship, few are god...

You cut Zealot bro, don't hold onto cards that aren't doing anything for you! Plus you can always pop him back in force in once Savage Summoning and Into the Wild are legal. I believe he can be quite bonkers with those cards.

lorddax

This deck still punishes every deck that likes to hurdle durdle t1-3. I'm hoping that we get plenty of good replacements for the deck in Theros when only cackler, zealot and walker remain. I've been trying to pick up Stomping Grounds for possibly rebuilding deck as Rg with Chant. But still plenty of...

Goblin Diplomats is gonna be tons of fun. Sorry, you were planning to do what now?

There are also some fun kitchen table combos

Young Pyromancer + Ogre Battledriver + Molten Birth = 9 hasty damage.

3-0 place for second, 1st place went 2-0 all games compared to my tension filled mirror 3 game flame battle of fun. R1 vs Junk Rites: 2-0 Aggro curve out for very quick game. Haven't played in 2 weeks so not up on metagame, so wasn't really sure what to do for SB. I did see Fiend Hunters so treated ...

Went 3-0 with my modified KDW :) R1 vs Junk Reanimator R2 vs kids 100 card dimir pile(yeah im a dick but best way to learn is to lose and figure out why) R3 a great mirror matchup with much seat of the pantsness. Game 1 race, game 2 was an uphill battle that I finally had to give up after mortar bol...

lorddax

Also anyone see that this little helper is coming round again? [card]Chandra's Phoenix[/card], which means that there will most likely be a red PW that deals damage. And this card most likely means a cycle of these, so recurring red cards may be a good way to influence tempo. So far the phoenix and ...

lorddax

@Fate: Read your post about why you dropped Zealot. I think you made the right call. While she is a great card, the cards that make her a beast don't really have room in your deck, namely SW. Rancor also has its place in Gruul lists, but not YOUR list. Knowing your deck and its win plan well enough ...

lorddax

Honestly I'd go for 8man Standard, as sealed can be a toss up as to if you are going to be playing with an entire pool of people who can make good decks out of bad pulls or make horrible decks out of good pools. There are a few rebuy rares in DGM sealed if you get lucky tho. You'll need to place at ...

lorddax

So whatever you are doing, stop. It is not as important as this.

Redthirst goes for a walk....

Moon boning is a thing now.

Ya know after awesome report, that I say that any reports this week have to be in MS Paint and written with the flavor of your deck.

lorddax

Wouldn't have been in keeping with the spirit of our team.

It's like the queen's sword. Its not official until it lands on your shoulder. The swelling will go down in a few days, you just have to remember to watch how close you kneel otherwise you might lose an eye.

It's an odd feeling wishing your mum a happy day when she has surgery scheduled the next day. Phone call was lot longer than usual lol

Anyone online want to mess around on MTGO or Cockatrice? Or play some Monaco?

I'll just leave this here after laughing my ass off when a blazing ginger friend of mine posted this on FB and how applicable it is here.

@Kaze You survived round 1! Grats man! I'm sure I speak for many of us when I say we will always be around to dole out advice and stories, whether its any good or terrifying is totally up in the air

lorddax

@Kaze congrats bro! May your stomach, hearth and bed always be full and warm! Always be honestly communicating about everything, good bad crazy dark light or silly. That's my advice from the guy in a marriage and multiple relationships :P also lotusbloomsalexandria dot com. Wifey is teaching the cou...

lorddax

You know if we wrote a book about the FoS I think it would be crazy interesting. Sometimes you guys make our poly-amorous marriage/web seem normal and tame by comparison. There is something to be said about having a girlfriend whos husband you like and also gets along with your wife, your wife's gir...

lorddax

Flying the Swagkite I really like where we've taken this list. This seems like it can really just go right over the top far faster than it should be able too. A turn 3 kite is fucking punishing. T1 ground elf T2 crag ZTD T3 kessig Kite for 5 T4 Whatever the fuck you want but Kite for 9 is always an ...

Wtf Z? Islands really? Tho shalt not blaspheme! Lol I remembered when I played islands in a legacy tournament. I register 60 islands. The rest of the day was hilarious to watch people's faces as they tried to figure out my deck. I would even mulligan. Was so worth the entry fee and screwing up the e...

lorddax

I think if we can make this deck be able to play both the aggro game when pushed into it while also going up the ramp scale, we may have a breakout deck. What do we think of this? Lands=24 3 Kessig Wolf Run 13 Mountain 4 Rootbound Crag 4 Stomping Ground Dudes=29 4 Stromkirk Noble 4 Burning-Tree Emis...

lorddax

He did. Cept it's the alchemical recipe for hard casting Dong of Dudeliness with the Cock of the Infinte kicker.

I put on my robe and wizard hat.

And now I suspect one of you mofo was bloodninja. Now there's a Internet dong legend

I keep trying to re-invent the wheel and the wheel keeps saying "I'm fucking fine, wait until rotation" This is usually where a lot of my brewing ends up. I think Gruul sligh is going to be very good in October when we lose some of the Avacyn cards that have been fueling our decks. Now if...

Playing VD in Standard without a way to make it be hasted and unblockable is like getting VD.

lorddax

Let me know how it does, think Im adding pulling together this one to add to the my developing box

lorddax

Have you guys started testing ZTD in the rage list? Its ramp in gruul colors and can very much throw off opp mathing. Plus 22 damage dealt by turn 4 isn't too shabby either...

I think I'm going to see if I can cobble together Ragehammer and see if ZTD helps or hinders the deck

lorddax

I think 3 gates would be fine in the list. RR is whats needed by turn 3 and with gates that ups the amount of ways to get there. Thankfully with BTE Mountain Mountain will still get there thanks to BTE for ZTD. -2 Forest -1 Mountain +3 Gruul Guild Gate OOOOORRRR -2 Kessig -1 Forest +3 Gruul Guild Ga...
