[DroppinSuga]

We're just waiting for a "gameworn" pair of underpants to show up to complete the Crank shrine

Whenever I think your comments can't get more disgusting, you thoroughly prove me wrong. Well done.

I aim to please.

[lorddax]

I'm in for testing / brewing.

Do we have a thread with the clan gauntlet list? I think such a thing would help over the ENTIRE season if we had a standard set to check our brews against so that way other people could help with results and testing.

[windstrider]

As a compromise, I'll save the list as The Crank File.

If anyone's interested, then send me a PM with whatever info you'd want to share.

Deck 1: RDW
Deck 2: Big Red/Boros/Rakdos
Deck 3: UW Control
Deck 4: UB Control
Deck 5: Charlie Murphy
Deck 6+: 3-color things ported from last season that people are going to try and force

I'm praying for this. My playset of Burning Earth is itching to do some work.

[dpaine88]

c'mon DPaine, follow your heart and play Rakdos Control. No more Falkenrath Aristocrat for you to ogle, but it should be a good deck. Just make sure whichever R/x deck you go with, pickup your playsets of Chandra before Theros hits and M14 stops getting drafted.

Haha I want to badly but really want that scry land!

Got 3 Chandra already

R/B still might be the way to go! I want to play excava

[dpaine88]

Gotta include GW in the testing gauntlet for sure

These are very good articles and I would read a book by this guy in a heartbeat. The fact that he speaks from experience on both sides of the success/fail line makes it much better, plus he really highlights the importance of a business plan. I would say these are almost required reads for anyone thinking about going into hobby retailing.

@dpaine: Doomblade / Ultimate price is making RB test way better for me.

I'd consider Ember Swallower over Exava. For all intents and purposes it's a vanilla 4/5 for 4, but that actually looks to be pretty well positioned atm - as dumb as that sounds.

Not at all. That extra point of toughness counts for a lot.

I'll vouch for Michael Bahr. His store came into AZ very recently and it's quickly dominated with regards to popularity. Their FNMs are regularly 6-7 rounds and sometimes 8. It's disgusting.

[TubeHunter]

Damn. Our store owner is doning pre realses at 35 instead 25 with the caveat that the winner gets a FTV:20. for all 5. And Im gonna miss 3 of them... damn.
Got a high school game, (1 vs 3, get hype!) on friday, then on saturday I am going to attend a college game for a team that is showing interest in me. Football all weekend
I can live with that!

I think we should agree on a standardized deck list for each of these and get them all in a thread in our clan brewing.

GW in the list? Tokens and Hexproof?

Or you could run both.

[hamfactorial]

I'm happy to help test on MTGO, but my schedule is very limited. I'm studying for my professional engineer exam in late October, so my attention will be sparse. I can loan cards to members if needed so we can find a tight list for states.

[Self Medicated]

Ham, I don't remember if I asked, but what kind of engineering are you concentrating on?

[Jack]

The sound is still broken on my computer, but Skype would be fun. I think I have an account...
Cockatrice is probably easiest, though

[Jack]

Also, I'm thinking of naming my budget Kuroda list Swaggin Dragon. Thoughts?

[redthirst]

Does it include at least one Drag-on with its swag on?

[Jack]

Shivan Dragon baby! The OG swagmasta himself.

[redthirst]

Then your proposal is approved.

Next.

Think we could get admin to replace the anniversary message with a "don't forget to order an FoS shrit" one? It would be a shame if anyone didn't get a shirt just because they didn't see the thread, and personally, I'd prefer if I didn't have to pay $50 for a Polo.

[hamfactorial]

Ham, I don't remember if I asked, but what kind of engineering are you concentrating on?

Mechanical engineering, I work on the consulting side of HVAC and refrigeration.

I started a thread in the general Clan area so it'd get more traffic.

If ham won't even use his hands to masturbate, there's no way he's going to use them for something less rewarding like work.

[hamfactorial]

Redthirst keeps my hands busy, brah

[DroppinSuga]

If I was one of the HVAC guys and you came on site, I'd bring you up in the ceiling vents and rape you.

[Khaospawn]

Much like properly warming up a sausage, getting red started requires both hands.

Would you call me after?

Would I get the same treatment?

You better say yes, motherfucker.

Of course I'd rape my beloved koalaspawn.

Well damn.

[Aodh]

Is anyone else on the blitz plan for states? Seems like there's lots of talk of Kuroda/Boros midrange, but not a lot of sligh brewing.

The link I
used directs to the restricted thread, but thankfully the announcement only shows up to members of the site. Guests see the old one about the anniversary.

Dunno if Scumbag is gonna care or not. Figured if it bothers him he can just change it back since he still has the text for the other announcement still.

What was once innocent man-on-man flirting has down degenerated into a man-on-furry fetish.

Why fight these feelings any longer?

Aggro MD with transformational Midrange SB.

Honestly, I'm undecided.

When I can get around to testing, I'll be doing the Kuroda Boros or a Sligh version using Fanatic of Mogi as the curve topper.

I guess it's going to ultimately boil down to one question: How badly do I want to play Thunder Thighs? Cuz Kuroda Boros is the perfect home for her. Other than that, I really want to blow someone out on turn 4 with a 6 damage Mogi ETB effect before swinging for some damage.
