Then Bargain would be better simply because you don't draw in multiples of 7 and lose life in multiples of 7, and being non-creature is harder to remove. You can stack multiple activated abilities...

Ah but they will never ban the creature, only the enabler. Except that banning the enabler usually leads to archetypes fading away from Legacy (e.g. Survival).

I'm a strong proponent of...

This thread is getting angry. I did a Chrome search for "Fuck" and found 30 (31 including this post) entries on this page, contributed primarily by Amon Amarth :P I still can't believe how people...

Can we ban the DCI? Problem solved.

Holy Cow, Maverick was dominating forever, and when it does play Brainstorm, we can start banning it!

Brainstorm being restricted in Vintage does not necessarily mean that it should be banned in...

How do you play Team America without Goyfs then? :/

I guess you can play Dreadstalker :P

And btw, when Tempo decks do start picking up again, the meta will adapt easily to beat it again.

Countertop is also actually not as devastating against storm than Tempo decks with a clock. The only thing that Countertop has an edge over Tempo decks over Storm is against Spiral Tide/High Tide...

Swinging with creatures, casting Tendrils on turn 2 for lethal, playing Countertop going to time to 25 turns is also unfun. Also, playing an eternal format that is similar to Standard is also unfun.

I'm calling this, if Brainstorm is indeed banned or has the potential on going to the banlist, I would just want everyone to start thinking about how many Sensei's Top would be played in replacement...

Not true and instead the other way round. Maverick, owns Stoneblade pretty easily. It's just not a popular deck in the USA.

Every card in Maverick is card advantage, and that Batterskull/SFM is...

Just ask yourself: Is MM more powerful than a host of spells listed on the B&R? I think the answer is yes. Either they unban more stuff or MM has to go. I would put MM ahead of FoW in Legacy. It...

The best thing about MTG is that it usually rewards players to play smarter in the first place, irregardless if Misstep is in the format (if you don't get what I'm saying, all I'm saying is that 2...

The only flaw to your analogy on Goblins + Misstep being able to deal with Misstep is that the Goblin player now needs to draw 3 cards to maintain the same plays: Land + Lackey/Vial + Misstep. ...

+1 IBA.

My friend started playing Goyfs again, after the SCG trends of playing 1-3 Goyfs in Junk/NORUG etc, and he said,

"You know, when you Fetch Ponder and Daze their creature, a 4/5 for 1G...

It does hurt Dredge. It is the new glue in Legacy, hence the reason why it's been pretty dominantly format-defining (or I would prefer to call format-warping/stagnating). Misstep IMO is more...

Are you fucking trolling us? If you think and believe this way, please stop playing this format. Talking about fetchlands/duals as if they were difficult pre-requisites/conditions is what a...

Lol, if Bargain cost 8 mana, it will most definitely STILL see play competitively as long as Show and Tell is around.

Show and Telling a Bargain is always going to be better than Show and Telling...

Boring thread is boring. Why the hell are we bringing up Mana Vault? Do people even know what are good and bad cards these days??

To be honest, I can't see Earthcraft being dominant in Legacy. The only deck that can play it is Elves, but a 2 mana investment to trigger a potential chain of combo on turn 2 is still fundamentally...

If Windfall becomes overly dominant, just play decks with LED. Vengevines.dec and Storm.dec will make Windfall look awkward :P

I think Windfall is quite fair these days. Its comparable card is...

Yeah that's what I meant. Since the opening post is old, Survival was not on the list aka it was not a problem until VV came in. Will it be a problem after? That's for the metagame to tell. And I...

I just Lol'd at the thread looking at the B/R poll. Where's Survival of the Fittest??? Goes so much to show that the card was just fine for the longest time, until Vengevines showed up.

Oath won't be unbanned. Legacy is predominantly aggro-control, aggro, control, combo. The meta is too rich in creatures for Oath to be healthy. In Vintage, the trouble is to get Orchard to donate...
