MTGSalvation's fuckdiculous Tech. Support

Sigh. Have I taught you nothing? The problem is you need to overwrite/flood the site's priorities until it forgets that it's hooked to a series of interconnected websites. The simplest way to do this is to go on, say, hackforums.com and search the keyword "flood"; if you really feel like d...

I don't think he knew how to run it. Game 1 I played T1 Stromkirk Noble, T2 Ash Zealot, T3 Reckoner, and then he scooped. Game 2 he got the combo off, and I hadn't boarded because I didn't see his deck at all game 1. Game 3 I double Slaughter Games and he scoops again. I find out later that night h...

I dunno, Ajani does have one important thing going for him: he has obvious and direct synergy with a number of played cards in his same block.. that's actually pretty rare; the last time that really happened I think was UB Tezzeret, and he obviously saw quite a bit of play when he was in Standard.

Also, ramp is a thing; some permutation of Monsters could almost undoubtedly benefit from the incremental advantage this guy poses, and the effect just seems way better when you're landing him turn 3 or 4 (as opposed to a creature..

There are an awful lot of ways to set up your draws in Standard, though. Magma Jet and Thassa, God of the Sea come to mind.

The flavor on this card is all fucking wrong. "You have no hope... unless you're playing with any of a number of cards from this very world, including the gods who made this decree!" Plus, way to not even give us Dante fanboys a reference to use in our games, MaRo. :/

What I like is that he's an engine without needing anything extraneous to advance your game plan; what I hate is that the only way you ever get him active as a creature is either by A) running a bunch of non-synergistic crap or B) running all the a planeswalkers, in which case he seems like overkill...

@Jasper: I'm not sure. On the Cons side, counterspell packages are pretty weak right now, since aggro can sneak guys under it and black just plays Pack Rat , and the prevalence of Thoughtseize makes relying on anything even remotely resembling a combo a little iffy. I wouldn't be comfortable playing...

so i have a question on wild ricochet, if i were to cast it in response to rev i know i get a copy of rev but to i get the original rev aswell?
The original has no targets to change, so the end result is you would both get a copy of the same spell.
TL;DR: don't side this in vs. UW.
