Tell me about the God partical.

I'm on the search for something much more intriguing - the source of all intelligence in the universe.

I call it the smarticle.

Zooligan

It's the Naya "Fuck you, Fatty!" deck...

Zooligan

How much cock would a woodcock suck if a woodcock could suck cock?

Zooligan

Is Vexing Devil really that bad? Is it not the auto-4-damage it was when standard legal in with Innistrad block?

Zooligan

Think maybe cut a Stoke - they don't do much good if you don't have the creatures to tap Seems a good idea, but prob it depends on the meta? In a midrange-infested area I would not leave home without the full set of Stoke. I would really like to ask you about the Revoker. How it has performed? Agai...

Zooligan

May I respectfully request that we move non-mono-red lists to their own sub-thread? Otherwise we're going to get pulled entirely off of the original thread topic - Mono Red Scrumper

Zooligan

You would have to weigh any incremental advantages from exchanging splash-color cards against the consistency and tempo hit you would take from CIPT mana sources.

Zooligan

Think maybe cut a Stoke - they don't do much good if you don't have the creatures to tap. Complete speculation on my part, but I'm thinking that the Jet provides (in addition to some cheap early damage) draw fixing which will allow you to better set up a token engine, which will then allow Stoke to ...

Zooligan

'K'spawn, that list is real similar to what I came up with after removing the fetches from my early attempt a couple pages back. I have Aspirant in the SB and upped the count of Purph and the Bird compared to your list. SB needs a little work but it'll do for FNM. I'm curious to hear how you do. Cre...

Zooligan

Thanks!

Zooligan

Hey, so, what if you cast a god and do not have the devotion required to make it a creature. Is it still a creature spell? Will Prowess trigger or not?

Zooligan

Why not just red/black topping out with the phoenix or sarkhan?

Zooligan

I don't always play Red, but when I do, I bring both my girlfriends with me to watch me win.

Both? You mean you only have two? C'mon man, you need to break out of that shell.

Zooligan

Yeah, incorrectly wrote 4 young Pyromancer.

I was wondering what the extra was. Do you plan on recording any matches with this deck once Khans is released on MTGO? I'd really like to see how this deck plays out.

Zooligan

That main 60 is a work of art.

if me maths are correct, that main 60 is actually 61...

Zooligan

The Caves has gain 1, and Pharika's Cure is in SB for aggro matchups. Given how creature-heavy everything is at the moment, perhaps flop the numbers on Despise/Thoughtseize to reduce your self-induced hits?

Zooligan

brought his Texan and Russian GFs along

What, no creeper cell phone pics?

Zooligan

I went undefeated last night. My deck felt unbeatable. For the first time, I felt like I had the best deck in the room. Even in the 3 games I dropped, I was literally 1 turn away from winning. Congrats, 'spawn! Let's see your current main/side lineup knowing what you know now. When do you bring in ...

Zooligan

So.... with Bloodstained Mire becoming Modern-legal, is it time to bring Dos Rakis in full-force?

Zooligan

I like Read The Bones MDU - I suggested it to Pedros and dauntless last night for their lists so clearly I like it quite a lot
I guess great minds think alike

And yours must also..

Zooligan

Definitely control, kill as much as possible to keep devotion down while holding removal for MoW. That's about all I know.

Zooligan

MODO noob here won his first pack in a pauper 2-man. Broke the ice now. Go me!

Zooligan

If you happened to have Exava out the opponent would be forced to give you the hasty 3/3 that goes back to your hand if/when it dies (or deal with a hasty 5/5 flier).

Zooligan

Definitely a SB card against low-cmc decks/token decks. Kill a little blocker AND get 3 points closer to winning the game? Yes please. AND generate a token if you've got YP$... :smileup: AND deal another 2 damage if you've got Purphoros out too... :lol: AND recur Chandra's Phoenix if you happen to h...

Zooligan

OK. So we've established our goal. Now all we need to do is identify our tactical objectives, execute them successfully, and bask in the glow of fame, money, and womens.

Zooligan

I'm in! So what's the clan plan, man?

Zooligan

The Daily Events, yes. There's still Premier Events and other queues, plus privately run tournaments.

Zooligan

All I can say is yes please:

I don't know... It smells like Vexing Devil to me... trying to stay cautiously optimistic.

the whole Tribute mechanic has some Vexnicity to it, no?

Zooligan

Looks like it's up.

Zooligan

Nice. Thanks LB! Btw my username is same on MODO.

Zooligan

The dos Rakis list let me down last night. Got spanked hard by monoG and monoB. Hard. So disenchanted with standard right now...

Zooligan

Is there a DTR clan set up on MODO?

Zooligan

Ah, I see. The bot owners crack the packs. I figured they just bought cards from players and made their $$ by their buy/sell spread.

Zooligan

Did anyone get his sim code to run? One problem I found with his code was that while he was calculating how much mana you needed to cast a particular card on Tx, he wasn't factoring in actually having that card on that turn as well.

Zooligan

Ah, so no one plays Pauper in paper?

Zooligan

Damn. In paper Gorilla Shaman is like $.075, on MTGO it's 7.72! Pyroblast is $2.44 in paper and 9.93 on MTGO!

I thought online prices were usually less than paper. What gives with these two cards?

Zooligan

No format besides Sealed/Draft "encourages" people to buy boosters, does it? Even Standard Constructed pushes people to buy singles. Why the war on commons? Seems like they are alienating folks like me who see Pauper as an entry point from getting into online play.
