    I found it hilarious to the point of falling out of my chair laughing when I saw Miracle Walk preselling for 39.99 and Reforge preselling for 4.99. Maybe that's the difference...

    Honestly, Mike, I think judges and the DCI are more worried about people using the Dragon as a draw button if they can't assemble their combo and forcing rounds to time.

    Doesn't really hurt Ritual based storm combo. Most of those use Ad Nauseum as their primary engine, and AdN puts the cards into your hand, you don't draw them. So neither Chains nor the made up card...

    Again, your tone and way you worded your response implies that Lions Eye Diamond is somehow this new card that is going to make the format more blue than it was already. This is simply incorrect....

    There is no point. The discussions that happen on this site about B/R have next to no impact on actual B/R policy with the DCI. It's all pure speculation, theorycraft, and ego stroking. You want...

    I was talking more a permanent based Necro-effect, but yes if you branch out into the 1-shots, Necrologia and Ad Nauseum are fairly balanced necro effects.

    It would be busted with SnT or Rector now that the format is slowing down a hair, I'm not going to deny that. Necro-Bargain effects are inherently broken effects. I guess I was just musing in an...

    Well, to be fair, by "fixing it" they made it better. "Pay 1 life: Draw a card" is, i'm sure you'll agree, much better than "Pay 1 life: remove the top card of your library from the game and put it...

    I don't think Megrim Jar would be too broken, but do keep in mind you get to run 8 Megrims, so 1 jar is probably all you need ontop of having other discard to ping in before jar resolves.

    I agree, and it never really was my argument. I was simply saying that Bargain was better than Necro, which was the original post I was responding to.
