Also, tinker is one sided, your opponent doesn't get to put anything into play.

That's just the Oxycontin.
That's just a liberal, socialist, communist conspiracy.
Edit: also Zionist, can't forget Zionist. George Soros etc.
LOL, when you have the kind of evidence that climate scientists have let me know. :laugh:
Also those arguments are nothing alike. My argument that Brainstorm isn't necessary to top 8 an SCG open...
That is the Invitational not the Open. The Invitational is mixed formats 8 rounds of Legacy and 8 rounds of Standard. Then the top 8 of this invitational was Standard, so it is really hard to...
Top 8 from the latest SCG Open
1. Goblins
2. RUG Delver
3. Elves
4. Esper Stoneblade
5. Maverick
6. Maverick
7. RUG Delver
8. Enchantress
Maybe the reason that you can't win is that you lack skill. :wink:
I think it's more a problem with deck builders. Every color has ways to reduce variance, depending on what you are trying to do, but bad deck builders will never understand that.
Ok, how about:
Fiend hunter
Cruel Edict
Tariff
Waterfront Bouncer
Sower of Temptation
Shriekmaw
Nekrataal
Confusion in the Ranks
OR..
Karakas
Innocent Blood
Humility (in play off SnT)
Ensaring Bridge (in play off SnT)
Diablolic Edict
ORing (in play off SnT)
Peacekeeper (in play off SnT)
Journey to Nowhere
At least then I wouldn't have to quit legacy, I could just move to Europe and be free of the whiners.
No I won't refute what is now your core point. There are cards on the banned list that I think are worse than brainstorm. But I don't see how that equates to brainstorm being banned. I think there...
Sure, It's where you build up the decks you expect to see the most at an event, you know like the last SCG top 8 lists, dtb, and to a lesser extent, decks that seem to never go away (mostly affinity...
Oh, you just don't know what a gauntlet is.
What is the core argument for banning? Is it ubiquity at the last SCG event top 8, I got news for you there was one less FoW than there was Brainstorm, so we have to ban that also? Limiting design...
How the fuck do you test for a big tournament, if not with a gauntlet?
You can replicate a gauntlet with two people. You can't tell me you only do testing at tournaments. If you do that explains a lot about where you people get your frustration from. It isn't...
I guess my (infantile) definition of card advantage is different from yours. You see I define card advantage thusly: "If a sequence of plays (or decisions) ends with a player up one or more cards,...
Are you fucking kidding me. Of course I know people cheat at this game. I have seen people cheat in all kinds of ways from mulling to seven, to brainstorming four, to fetch tutoring. What I am...
Oh yeah that's from when you made the claim anyone who plays brainstorm is a cheater. And if you play blue you play brainstorm right?
This shit is just retarded. Every deck in the format uses...
What the fuck are you talking about 'blue player', did I even use this phrase anywhere?
Yeah I am sure Ancestral Recall reduces variance, it also generates card advantage something...
You see there is the difference. I want to win legacy games and have brainstorm in the format (mostly because a format without it would detract from the format). You want to win legacy games with...
I guess I could play vintage, but I am not getting back into edh. That's the only format my playgroup is more cutthroat in than Legacy.
There is a format just like that, its called Modern.
These people don't know how anything works in the format.
If by "making the format more diverse," you mean, there will be no established meta. And by "have more access to all the cards," you...
