Faeries are scary for sure. I imagine real life Bitterblossom looks like this.

Don't mess with the Vendillion Clique. *Hair flip*

Edit: Stupid video won't play.

too much removal not enough scion

Posted: **Wed Feb 05, 2014 4:58 am**

also needs more counterspells and no think twice

Posted: **Wed Feb 05, 2014 4:59 am**

Faeries in folklore are probably the scariest thing imaginable. Even the "nice" ones will fuck you up,

no way man. Disney taught me differently. Fairy Godmothers were good and so was tinker bell.

Scion was eventually cut from the Extended lists, if the mirror gets popular you sideboard Sower and Peppersmoke.

Posted: **Wed Feb 05, 2014 5:06 am**

11 counterspells is already a lot; how many do you want??

Posted: **Wed Feb 05, 2014 5:17 am**

this ain't extended

Posted: **Wed Feb 05, 2014 5:20 am**

The reasons it was cut are still in the format.

Posted: **Wed Feb 05, 2014 5:25 am**

it's too soon to say how to build the deck

i like scion in a midrangy format

2 scions still locks a lot of decks out of interacting

Caleb Durward and Josh Silvestri might be interested in playing in an event; depending on the details. I haven;t heard from Michael Hetrick. That's really the extent of my current reach (everyone else trying to get ready for the PT).

Currently talking to Andy/LSV about doing BNG Mono Red videos, will let you know what happens.

Can NBW speak to MDU and Myself about putting together a graphic for the end of our videos?

Posted: **Wed Feb 05, 2014 5:27 am**

Yeah I don't disagree Kait.

Posted: **Wed Feb 05, 2014 5:31 am**

I can do video animations and logo animations and such. I might work on a well designed FoS logo in the coming week.

Scion protects your bitterblossom from abrupt decay which is a big game.

He's a very good grinder.

Wouldn't mind trying to whip up a graphic/logo for FoS or DtR. I edit videos and provide graphics for LGS groups MTG site.

Endless Upkeep is the name. Does not have a forum but primarily use Facebook to discuss while the site is for announcements and other MTG related things. Should have examples of my video editting & graphic work. Designed the logo for the site myself. Mwould be glad to work along side purp and other clan members for a clan logo. A DtR logo would not be hard either but would need a general idea of what would be wanted in Terms of visuals.

don't think i've ever lost to dustini

Posted: **Wed Feb 05, 2014 5:50 am**

I've never lost to Vidyanto and he's currently got the 6th highest draft win% this season.

Facts without content

Posted: **Wed Feb 05, 2014 5:53 am**

I'm 2-0 vs LSV. I must be in the hall of game soon right?

Posted: **Wed Feb 05, 2014 6:11 am**

this fucking fever needs to break

Can I join, I also beat LSV, Owen, top200 and Todd

In regards to the logo graphic/animation, shouldn't it be DtR over FoS since were trying to attract people to this site or mtgo clan no?

Posted: **Wed Feb 05, 2014 6:19 am**

@MDU, yeah I figured that. Just give me some time and I can start tossing designs soon.

Posted: **Wed Feb 05, 2014 6:21 am**

i've never lost on mtgo

Posted: **Wed Feb 05, 2014 6:23 am**

I've never lost at FNM.

Posted: **Wed Feb 05, 2014 6:24 am**

what should I replace my deathrite shamans with?

Grim lavamancer/finks/bitterblossom?

probably all that.

Posted: **Wed Feb 05, 2014 6:25 am**

Those all sound good.

Posted: **Wed Feb 05, 2014 6:42 am**

Yeah, decided to just jam them all in and cut the 2 Chandra's. Working well so far. Figured without the acceleration I should lower the curve for more velocity.

Actually, went with 2 abrupt decays instead of bitterblossom.

I've never lost at the Pro Tour.

We can ask MDU to put something advertising the site at the end of his vids?
If anyone is willing to make a nice picture or short animation I'll have no problem including it at the end of my videos.

Personally I'm happy with where the forum is at (not saying its perfect) I just don't want DtR to become like Sally, I do respect the opinion of others I just don't want to read pages of mindless dribble.

I recall my experience in Sally's Modern burn thread where logic is replaced by 'fun and not fun' or epic counter arguments based on 'FNM results, Cockatrice or TP'...[/

We wouldn't let that happen. I mean, just look at the moderator list for Standard. It isn't exactly a carebear brigade.

I don't think we can be friends.

Also, ask harry dresden about faerie god mothers.

For a DtR logo or graphic what exactly would be wanted? Trying to just brainstorm general ideas.

How about some guy sitting behind a computer raging while creatures die to removal in the background?

Mike Sass art. Will see if I can find a higher rez art for the card. My google-fu is finding really horrible resolution pics.

I think we're trying to avoid using official Magic art without written consent because it makes it more likely that we would be eligible for a spoiler card some time down the line. I made some logos early on into the site's
conception but we decided against them because they featured Magic art.

My favorite was this one, but it's a little too big.

Posted: **Wed Feb 05, 2014 8:11 am**

Some others:

Well, if it's something that involves magic art, I'd love to see baneslayer angel and Dismember together.

Or just baneslayer. Cause I find that funny.

Posted: **Wed Feb 05, 2014 8:18 am**

An idea that quickly popped in my head is a cartoonish dead soldier with X_X eyes and his tongue sticking out. There can be different versions of the same soldier sprite getting killed by different removals like burn (on fire), terror (doom blade effect), etc (arrows in his back).

Agreed, the art needs to be original.
