Its a good way to get your name and experiences out there (mtgo players especially) without having to be featured on a paying site

If you think your content is too good for a forum, develop a fan base on DTR and then see if someone like CFB is interested

Maverick has done more for the site than anyone!

I'll certainly link my Saturday streams if Twitch allows embedding.

What about a mass of friendly nudges?

Are those cumulative?

I mean, ten nudges at once might feel like a light jab.

A hundred could feel like a solid right hook.

I should start a stream where I do nothing but play EDH in "No MLD/Stax/infinite" games with a hyper ramp Omanth deck. Turn four, I Genesis Wave. X is 14.

The best I can do now is link to my twitch page in my profile, but getting out in front in a weekly "column" could help stir up traffic in both directions.

Sign up for the front page and test the log in, log out, remember password, etc

This is an important step currently

I wish I was a good enough player to write articles, or slightly worse so I could write casual articles. I suppose play skill isn't the end all be all, I can write a 4 page rant easily enough and often enough if we want quantity over quality. Thanks to a minor in political science I can spin one minor insight into 10 pages in the span of about 4 hours, and thanks to philosophy I can spin absolutely nothing into at least 5 pages. Now if only my ability to lazily use GOTO statements instead of proper loops could be harnessed for good (thank purphoros the professor didn't actually read the source code). I've used purphoros so often that autocorrect guesses it after p-u-r, which is fine for now, but what happens when theros rotates out? Wow this is foggy and rambly, clonazipam is one hell of a drug (I have a Rx, don't worry).

You do need to try to gay it up a little more.

You're like the least gay member of this clan.

And that's counting the fact that you voluntarily have sex with men.

Personally I only see MC as a 2 or 3 of in some two to three color aggro deck that doesn't want Guildgates. Depending on the next block and what kind of land it's bringing, either it's going to be unneeded or it will become viable as a 4-of in multi-colored deck.

Either way I picked up three because it doesn't hurt to have around just in case I decide to be greedy with my mana base.

It's a provocative title but I agree with a lot of what he says. I don't think Mana Confluence should be cut entirely, but I've been commenting lately on how many aggro decks have been jamming four Mana Confluence and just how bad that looks in a meta sure to have more aggro decks. I think two is the sweet spot.

Mr. Ross was right about one thing, city of brass didn't see a whole lot play during it's last go around in standard, mostly because standard had painlands, terramorphic expanse, and either shocklands or vivid lands + reflecting pool and tribal lands at the time. Where he's wrong is that aggro decks need it. Temples are all well an good, but etbt is significantly worse than damage in aggro. Also in block constructed it's the only game in town.
