+1 Koby in spotting Lotus Bloom or Reshape could have made the deck less effective, but still viable. It would've been the more appropriate card to cut. I'm not a fan of Eggs, but I disagree with...

@Lord Seth & Fizzeler: The point I was making is that in Legacy, the three basic pillars aren't as clear cut as it would proposed and represented that those pillars are absent in Modern. The forms...

Goblins is as much a combo deck as it is aggro deck. Between Tutors, cheat-into-play, and draw spells, the effects of those abilities do not say aggro at all. If a deck can beat Moat not having any...

@Phoenix Ignition: +1

@cartoonist: there is a lack of draw-go control. There are other zones to interact with than just the stack and those decks are playable. If you're looking for...

I'm not trying to abolish the color wheel, I'm trying to prevent free spells. I just said if U gets a free spell, the other colors should as well, not that Green needed it's own force of will. I...

Based off of the unfair, uninteractive decks already seeing play, I agree with you Lord Seth. The two cards should come off the ban-list. If storm is allowable (a niche mechanic that builds a deck...

Thank you for the synopsis Lord Seth.

In regards to Chapin's article, I agree and disagree. The rotating ban list is just a headache. I don't think any of us are inherently lazy, but keeping...

Are you trolling my trolling? Or... are you giving me a backhand compliment? Is the double negative (under the assumption trolls are negative) in effect, therefore making it neutral/positive?

It's a one mana common artifact. How bad could it be? It's not banned in EDH, totally safe I bet.

My snark was neither necessary, nor useful in conveying my point.

I was saying the article is not available for us non-paying stiffs (me.) However, as you think it is a valid source to reference...

So I should be happy that Hurricane Sandy isn't greatly affecting me, as I live in Philly and do not need to travel to Pittsburgh to get back to Philly. And, that Pack Rat is being complained...

They site combo and Jund as the reason the format is boring (generalizing.) They're trying to win, agreed. Why wouldn't they play a combo deck or Jund and go at it from there? If they want to play...

Given that these guys are pros, still not sure they know what they're talking about. I find RUG and U/W just as lame to play against in Legacy because they play FoW and Daze, but by no means are...

In regards to manabases, how much weaker is Modern than Legacy?
Answer: the duals cost 2 life if you want it untapped, there are not allied fetches, only 1 artifact land instead of 6.

@Jenni: I disagree. The banned list should stay as is. It effectively creates a different format than Legacy (with decks not so easily ported) minus revised dual lands and free counterspells.

I...

Totally off topic- but expected given the Legacy-first environment... it seems like a lot of people dislike Modern because it is not Legacy. The most grievous offense, that there is a serious lack...

Playing with a Mono-B Discard/Small Pox deck, I think Tron is an easy matchup. Between small pox and Tectonic Edge, killing lands isn't that difficult. Without Tron assembled, the decks falter. ...
