Any thoughts on running maindeck Chains of Mephistophiles in a heavy combo/blue meta? I've been trying it out, and because my BW list runs an enlightened tutor package (it can even just be a bad...
Okay, did a big edit of the deck.
1. Added a Cunning Wish package. I'd been trying to make it work before, but I finally found some targets I like (the 1-of counterspell for the classic no-stick...
I dislike the thopter combo because it can be answered while it goes off and also requires dudes swinging to win. I recognize that it's powerful, but I'd prefer to just win the game right there than...
It's a 2-of in "instants" in the main list.
This is something I'm just brewing right now, but it looks like a sweet combo endgame to countertop. If there's one thing Vintage has taught me, it's that taking infinite turns is pretty sweet.
...
Wow, this is pretty darn useful, man. Thanks for putting this up!
At first I was thinking, "since when do I have more than 4 copies of a card in my deck," but then I realized that I could just...
I've been testing him out in Threshold, cutting the 2 Vendillion Cliques for him. All I have to say is -- how did I ever win a game without him? He solves the problem that Thresh always had -- the...
I don't know if you're doing this for a tournament or to actually play "normal" commander -- but if it's the latter, you're doing it wrong. You'll win a game or two with some people, sure, but from...
It's happening tomorrow! I hope we get a great turnout!
I can't wait to see all of you there on Sunday!
For parking: there's limited parking on Fort St. itself, but the Walgreen's about 100 feet before us has a large parking lot.
A link to the card.
When I first saw the card spoiled, I looked and said, "Oh, huh, that's kinda neat in multiplayer" and continued to herp, derp, or whatever it was I was doing at the time.
I...
15 proxy is rather high, but we're looking to encourage Standard players who have interest in the format to turn out as well. This way, they aren't forced to convert their standard deck into...

I might be doing this wrong, but I've been throwing some stuff together. This needs more testing, but I have so few good testing options where I am :(

It seems like an even bigger question than the number of Wastelands or the colors of threats is whether you want to run Cunning Wish or not. I've never played Landstill without a Wish board and I've...
I absolutely think Can. Thresh has a place in the meta, as it's got (in my experience) a great merfolk matchup with a competent pilot packing a little hate in the board. The hate can be broad, too --...
Never fear, judge is here! *fanfare*
Infect deals damage in the form of -1/-1 counters; however, it is still damage and can be prevented the same way normal damage is.
It's easy to confuse this...
I'm sorry, Assassin -- I usually agree with your points while I lurk, but I have to speak for the opposition here. Mental Misstep is great against Mental Misstep, sure, and it helps Zoo not be...
The difficulty with fast aggro in general and vial decks in particular have me going back to Red as my splash like it always does. How does Black avoid being downright slaughtered by the likes of...
Come on, guys. This is Legacy. Sure, he's cheap and big, but do you really want to jump through these hoops just for a vanilla 5/6? Don't forget -- just because you can goldfish your method of...
I'm deciding whether I want to convert my Can Thresh (which I do love dearly, for reasons which may include Firespout and Pyroblast in my board) to Team America or to UGB (Now with more Bob!)...
...
I absolutely agree with you there, Metalwalker. MM is getting a lot of hype, but its two true homes are obvious: UWx Landstill and Tempo decks. That it gives us a hard counter early in the game,...
In regards to Mystical Tutor: Just because something can be answered -- even answered efficiently -- does not make it balanced or suitable to reappear.
That's something I hadn't considered, good to think about.
Another reason you should run 4x each dual: It sucks like no other to have 3 of your Red (or in your case, Green, so even worse) sources...
Hey Dan, good to see you too.
Thanks for helping me understand this -- I have to say, the deck does a lot more than I realized. I must have gone up against people who just had no idea what they...
