    Re: Modern Banned List

    I think Wizards could improve Modern through new cards, rather than bannings.

    They could print some main deckable cards with incidental hate, rather than just printing obnoxiously narrow hate...

    Re: Modern Banned List

    I think banning something out of one of the very few fair decks in Modern is crazy.

    Re: The Halloween Deck

    I agree that I don't think the Ancient is good enough for Modern. Mostly because its 4 toughness means it loses in combat to Goyf and Tasigur, which are better cards in the same color. I think I'd...

    Burn was bad. Firewalker was great in my UWR Geist deck, but w/ Tar Pit instead of Colonnade, getting to WW is really painful in this deck. Was thinking about trying Timely Reinforcements or even...

    Re: SCG Louisville -20/32 Eldrazi

    I don't get the whole "leaving Eldrazi as a deck in Modern makes WotC lots of money" argument. Can someone explain that to me? Are competitive players really buying booster packs of OGW to get...

  14. Re: [Official] Bitching about prices. (Modern edition.)

    Modern card prices will never get under control until WotC figures out a way to print large quantities of cards from pre-Scars blocks. Demand for MTG and Modern are at an all-time high, but supply...

    Re: Bant Retreat to Coralhelm

    I've always wondered if there was a Bant Geist Deck. Heirarch + Geist + Dromoka's Command + Gavony just seems too good to pass up. I like that you have 2 strategies here: beat down with Geist or...

    Based on how good Bob is in Jund and Junk, I've wondered if Abbot could provide a similar role in Jeskai and Grixis where you're playing more of a tempo game. Adding Young Pyro seems like a great...
