Subversion
(Take Possession on their creatures)
Sacred Mesa/Mobilization
any planeswalker would be probably pretty ridiculous actually; I'd want Elspeth
Any of the B/x Dark Ritual decks (the ones that use it to power out Hymns to Tourach rather than team with Lion's Eye Diamonds) are going to be very good for awhile. They're not unbeatable, but...
In a format with all of the answers available to a vanilla creature (no matter how gigantic), if you lose to Tarmogoyf specifically the answer isn't ban the thing. It's to play a better deck.
...
I would much rather have Ranger than any other four-drop with the exception of Sower of Temptation; Sower steals the Tombstalkers and Dreadnoughts and Tarmogoyfs that invalidate the Ancestral Recall...
Before everyone completely loses their minds about Nassif's sideboard (oh wait where am I...), keep in mind that it could be fairly represented as such:
1 Blue Elemental Blast
1 Hydroblast
1...
Viridian Shaman
2G
Creature - Elf
2/2
When Viridian Shaman comes into play, destroy target artifact.
Also, the deck that you propose can only beat combo game 1 if the combo player's retarded...
Yes.
When you have a deck that's proven from a source that is proven, why change it? PChapin did well at Worlds with the deck, Steve took the exact same list and also did well with it. I'm not...
Because after all, naming conventions are really that important when we talk about Legacy.
Also, he didn't credit Chapin's deck either, so don't think it was a particular slight.
I mean, he just copied Patrick Chapin's 75 from Worlds and crushed with it. I happen to believe that Chapin's deckbuilding skill is sufficient to warrant adopting his deck without modification -...
What ends up happening is that Aluren runs its own Tarmogoyf... and then why bother with Aluren combo-killing because you have your own Goyfs. A lot of the games that Aluren would end up winning at...
BDM has done more for Magic: the Gathering in the last 72 hours than you will in your entire existence, so please refrain from posting about him (or at all hopefully) in the future.
You're welcome...
As someone who actually IS part of Team Meandeck, you clearly fail at the naming convention. It's take a deck that someone has done fairly well with, add four Brainstorms, and THEN you have a...
Bluntly speaking, I'm not going to even bother playing the first discard outlet if I know you're monoblue. There's basically no chance in hell that I can possibly lose game 1 if I get anything going...
Future Sight was worth more to open by a mile, as was Morningtide. Even if you missed a Tarmogoyf, there were about ten chase rares (including Venser, the rare lands, Slaughter Pact and Pact of...
The only way to counter that is of course that it is working; Magic: the Gathering's made Wizards of the Coast enough money (and indeed Hasbro after it) to keep it around for now fifteen years. Most...
The difference though is that StarCityGames has to my knowledge never pulled anything shady with their shipping/payments/whatever. Sure, they're expensive, but you are going to get what you paid for...
You probably don't have the mana to activate it effectively, and if you do you're not in a good place regardless because you've drawn lands and not spells that point at the face/their board/attack...
No, they banned it because it would be broken as fuck. Voltaic Key you, goodbye - or even "Untap target permanent, take another turn". 2UU and 3 cards for two additional turns is going to be really...
None.
I don't play nearly as much as I used to, and when I do I want to have the highest potential enemy skill level.
I was referring to the quality of work that gets done there. And trust me, we have a ton of topics discussed, both Magical and otherwise.
Be careful with the terminology you use. A libertarian approach would have no moderation at all, a Chicago School one only to keep the software working correctly. This is certainly a regulated...
Not playing Thoughtseize in a deck with 24 creatures. Cabal Therapy first. Honestly, you end up doing four to yourself with fetchlands every game - why make your potentially soft matchups harder?
OBVIOUSLY that's a stereotypical Asian accent. I don't mean a little, I mean the Yellow Peril here.
I honestly advocate black, not for removal options but for Dark Confidant. That creature is...
Or Threaten, even better and the same mana cost. "Saaaaaaaaaaaaankuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."
