Dies to Removal

It's certainly not the worst event deck they've ever released, and it should help control the prices of some of the black staples. I like the GY subtheme in terms of flavor, even if it's not Standard competitive.

NBW continues to distinguish himself...those are some badass sigs, gentlemen! For anyone who is considering getting into Bx of any sort and needs cards, there is some value to be had in the Underworld Herald event deck that releases at the end of this month. List is $19.95 and at that price it is va...

Last post evidently went into the aether...can't find it anywhere. Happy Birthday, DS!

We tend to get tunnel vision about Constructed; Hexproof is a fine mechanic in Limited.

Okay gentlemen...will it be fisticuffs or pistols at 30 paces?

Which brew thread, James? My son and I are building decks tomorrow to get some local playgroup action started if we can and strider and I can give it a run. EDIT: NVM found it.

My gods...my sides are hurting and I can't stop giggling. Thanks for the Hook recitations, folks...we watched it a few weeks back because my GF's son had never seen it. Truly classic.

My friends, all the forums and such are still there...admin wanted the front index page cleaned up, so I the Brewery subforums now lack links in their parent forums. If you click on the FoS Brewery and Idea Warehouse link from any of the indexes, you will again see Mountainous Dominion and so on. Be...

Actually there is a solution--use of the clan-restricted Brewery. But that's the rub of the tiers...Pedros only had access to the public forums. Glad we're getting after all this stuff...

Modern prices are going insane...how long before they announce MM2? That event deck in May is not going to do anything to card prices. Don't expect them to get any better. Modern staple supplies are already taxed, but speculators buy up all the surplus to drive prices even higher. By controlling re...

Well fuck me...just lost my post to a random bit of computer stupidity. Ah well, nothing much to say except that PR was fun for the most part and I'm glad we were able to go despite ice hitting the other night. Oh, and while looking at shirt designs tonight I found Raida a girlfriend: http://cdn.sho...

Our prereleases are a bit different. The local TO who my nephew works for for tourneys formed an alliance between a few of our big shops; we have a huge combined release at a convention center (RTE drew 400 for the midnight flight alone). We don't have a top-out; everyone plays 4 rounds and prizes a...

I'll be in my bunk.

Wearing Mal's face and pimping Jayne's lines...I like that about you, RT.

Another image search.

Pretty happy about it.

Here's the whole photo session that that image came from...yes please.

And yes, Photo's sig is just next leveling me. What is this that I feel? I don't know, but I'm not worthy. :grovel: The sig or the avatar? The sig is all props to nbw...His graphics skills and design intuition are mind-blowing. The avatar is part of a series...I found them a while back thinking the...

Thanks freedom for the compliment--high praise indeed.

And thanks Kait for your ever-present reality check...kinda like a rash that won't quote go away

Photo, is....is that a Venom-Stormtrooper in your avatar?

Yes, brother Khaos, it is! There are a whole series of these--Spidey, the Avengers, Doom and so on. You can likely Google them up, or drop me an email addy and I'll send them to you. They are just flat badass...

And lest I forget--

Happy Birthday, Doc!

Cheers to you, inkmaster!

The past few pages have reminded me of why I'm here...sharing. Be it experience, wisdom, frustration, humor, triumph, anger, excitement--whatever--we share it here. Thank you, my clan, for sharing who you are and where you've walked. <<tips hat>>

http://www.channelfireball.com/articles/playing-with-fire-playing-control-in-rdw/ Reread and commented upon--great job! I think that Purphoros, however, is going to go down in history as the most misspelled name in Magic...you ended up with 3 different spellings, even with editorial review. ;-) But...

I've certainly been tempted. I have no doubts about this...strider considered braining one of them with a shovel the other night when we went out to hang with he and the fam for the evening. Irritating hounds were acting territorial with us about Dan's property--screw that shit. I love dogs, but ir...

Anyone have thoughts on BNG Sealed archetypes yet? It looks like Heroic is still about the same viability as it was in Theros, the Archetype cards for the most part look like they can take games over (except red and green for the most part) and white got some scary Limited cards in general. If I get...

Why are people comparing this set to DKA? That set was awesome. It had Pyreheart Wolf, Hellrider, Falkenrath Aristocrat, Huntmaster of the Fells, Strangleroot Geist, Geralf 's Messenger, and Lingering Souls. Plus I'm sure I forgot a few things. :fixed: Yes--awesome rares, but the set was crap to pl...

photodyer

The regrettable problem with sets like this is that if any of the cards turn out to be playable, they're going to skyrocket because no one wants to open packs. DKA was like that (mainly in black and red), and Voice of Resurgence (DGM) is still over $30 even though GW has been crap throughout Theros ...

I hope zem doesn't mind, but I'm copying this comment from him over from FB. In a single paragraph, he eloquently encapsulated the sum difference between casual and competitive Magic...it really speaks to me. Hell, I'd sig it if there was room. "One thing I know for sure is that Magic is about ...

Searing Blood and Bile Blight are both selling for more than most of the rares in the set... Good thing I grabbed 4x of all C/UC in the set. :D I ended up ordering 4 C/UC sets...the uncommons have enough total value to make it worth not having to track any down locally for extra decks (plus I have ...

They just previewed a black myr enforcer.

They who? Where?

Thanks, LK!

i will tell you the correct choice when the spoiler is finished.
You really should write a limited primer when the set is spoiled, even if it's only brief.

That would indeed be appreciated...short set combined Limited runs me crosseyed when I try to do spreadsheet analysis.

I like all the Dimir influences in sigs creeping in. What? What? There's no Dimir here...the secret guild is just a rumor <<quickly hides eye-spider patch>>. :? As to all the fervor over Bile Blight and black, keep in mind that the card is also a strong, targeted hoser for Pack Rat. Yes black is ge...

With all the new black removal, is it time for this? http://gatherer.wizards.com/Handlers/Image.ashx?multiverseid=369066&type=card Solves the Reckoner/Bile Blight issue, but regrettably not the "red only deserves x/1's" issue. Probably still narrow, but this + Charm seem worth consider...

photodyer

All good. It's definitely a confusing mana base to look at. I should have to turn back in my Rakdos membership card...I totally blew past Blood Crypt because I was impressed with seeing a decent black base that could play Reckoner. But then, Bile Blight makes that less exciting, dammit. Okay, thing...

I like that Satyr turns makes Boros Charm drop Mizzium Mortars in addition to going to the dome...there have to be ways to break the card.

Deck has 16 black sources.

Dammit...too busy @ work to take my shoes off and count that high. Cry your pardon, zeman.
