    I like Randy and appreciate his contributions (some of them) to the game. His enthusiasm for Vintage has been instrumental in the format staying afloat. That said, as a still embittered Shops pilot,...

    Re: [Deck] R/G Combo Lands

    I can't take the non stop surgical extraction parade that is going on on modo anymore. I've literally been surgicaled around 3/4 of post board games according to my records over the past three weeks....

  5. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    It doesn't take much to turn 93/94 into 95 by introducing Ice Age and Homelands. Then 96, and so on. The format probably loses some of its nostalgia (and certainly it's innocence) with Urza's Block...
  6. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    I really don't see Old School going anywhere. The draw of the format is the casual, beer-friendly nature of it all. No tournament scene needed. Speaking from personal experience, it replaced what...

    Patrick - When you're getting ready to film do you join a 2 Man and sit there waiting for an opponent? If so, you might consider waiting and joining once someone else enters the room first. With 105...

    So apparently SoI cards are being spoiled and one of them was an Envelop that acts as a Surgical Extraction to the sorcery it counters...for one mana still. I can't imagine that won't be in every...

    Re: Magic 94 - Websites and Forums

    Why not just play Magic 95 if you're concerned about the elitist attitude of the Swedes? 95 adds Ice Age (with the pain lands easing the burden off duals) and Chronicles (Erhnam and City of Brass)...

    Haha, I know how to play around sweepers, thanks. I didn't say it invalidates my deck (reading comprehension is a good thing), I said it invalidates some decks I consider to be cool parts of the meta...

    Sticky: Poll: Re: All B/R update speculation.

    I'm not a fan of banning cards, I'd rather see stuff unbanned...but Terminus...c'mon WOTC. CounterTop is fine. Terminus, however, invalidates decks almost single-handedly.

    For those interested in salvaging the deck in this same basic form, I think it's possible. It certainly won't be as good, but why would the following not work to replace the four Digs:

    Re: The future of Legacy?

    It certainly seems like Legacy is "down" ever since SCG shifted away from Sunday Opens. I know they still have premier IQs or whatever, but they're not streamed, and they hardly cover any Legacy...

    Re: [Deck] Imperial Painter

    Recruiter is the glue that holds the deck together. Play it for awhile and I'm 100% sure you'll agree. I'm literally never sorry to draw a Recruiter.

    I've had a lot of success with Pyroclasm out of the board for those types of decks. I'm not a fan of Firebolt, though I acknowledge Jack's had much success with the card.

    Shops might be up Finn's alley since the prison versions play somewhat similar to Death and Taxes. You don't necessarily need a Lotus in Shops. Five Moxen and 4 Workshops works fine. Pretty sure that...

    Unsung and Anarky....whereabouts in IL are you from? If central IL, there are several Legacy events worth traveling for every month. Would be nice to have more Painters around.
