    Re: The best article yet about the Mystical Tutor banning

    It has been ten years. Tom Lapille made many more mistakes and got fired. And, Legacy is dead. I doubt any of them cared about an Eternal format's future, to be honest.

    But, I do think it's true...

    MTG Arena player IDs

    WOTC finally put networking into Arena, so I thought we might want to exchange IDs.

    Mine is Machinus#88952. Maybe Historic will be interesting one day.

    Re: No more Legacy on the SCG Tour

    Older players will remember that SCG used to support Vintage tournaments. They eventually had to eliminate support for them. Pete did not issue any explanation at the time, as Ben has done for us,...

    Sticky: Poll: Re: All B/R update speculation.

    If you find yourself banning cantrips and mana elves, you fucked up your banned list.

    The solution is to fix previous ban mistakes.

    Re: [DTB] Czech Pile

    Naming decks in Legacy is not as black and white as you might wish. Anyway, other than not playing Leovold, my deck is closer to this one than that one.

    Yeah but Aaron Forsythe said it made rounds take longer. So that should explain it.

    Poll: Re: No one should be happy about Top.

    People bitching on twitter does not constitute a justification. WotC made no attempt to justify their decision, anyway, because they could not. There is no evidence for it.

    Cards being re-unbanned in Legacy is almost impossible. I doubt it will ever happen.

    Sorry.

    Your pro idol does not have the authority to "confirm" that a deck is "the best." Anyway, I addressed why this is irrelevant in an earlier post.

    Poll: Re: No one should be happy about Top.

    This is a sincere sentiment. But it's not true that you could not design a deck to perform well in a metagame with Miracles, and it's certainly not true that people were pressured to play the deck....

    First of all, "most prominent Miracles pilots" are not on this forum, so you might want to calm down with those desperate fabrications.
