<-- Hoping this gets banned so we don't all mirror match all day...
anyway...
I just wanted to point out if nobody else has noticed. Flash was the card of the day on April 19th, 2007...and this is what it said under it on the WOTC site:
Flash Card of the Day - Thursday, April 19, 2007
Mirage rare. Flash is an amazingly cool idea with a terrible template and low power level, both of which are vastly improved by Time Spiral block flash creatures like Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir, Sulfur Elemental, and Bogardan Hellkite. Another modern descendant of Flash is the "Flash for Sorceries," Quicken, which also vastly improves on the original Flash's template and power level.
Just thought I'd give us all a laugh :: Read: Tear ::

Forsythe's article is up. No mention of Hulk Flash yet :(
YOU'RE GIVING ME A TIME MACHINE IN ORDER TO TREAT MY SLEEP DISORDER.
I have to imagine that he has recieved about three hundred emails a day for the past week or so in regards to Hulk Flash and in spite of all that chose to do and say nothing about it. Even if it doesn't warrant emergency bannings, which in my opinion it does, it AT THE VERY LEAST warrants an honorable mention to the stupid horse shit type two stuff Wizards has been pushing all week.
Also, interestingly, a guy posted in his thread complaining that there was no mention of the Legacy problem, and now the post isn't there anymore. Hmmm....
georgjorgeGeistreich sind schon die anderen.
I really doubt the he is going to care about a bunch of whining legacy players to ban a card, a couple a weeks away from the legacy GP. Build a deck that uses flash or a deck that beats it.
If you are not going to do either than do not play, the thread is supposed to be about developing a list not to bitch and complain.
Hmm, I came up with this question when discussing this deck with someone over MWS, and figured I'd post it here.
Let's say you're playing the mirror, or against a control / aggro-control deck. You have the combo in hand, and the mana open, but 0/1 counters. Do you go off NOW, or do you wait till you have more backup? Is this dependant on the kill you are running, since the KG/KJ kill can't win in response?
Big name recongition:

That's good, since Wizard's is more likely to pay attention to Bleiswess rather than Legacy players.

Try not to wake up on fire.
I'm not sure how I feel about this list. However, his article doesn't really express a concern for the potentially metagame warping this deck is going to be for the grand prix. He didn't even mention how legacy players are stuck with their thumb up their ass about this sudden change. That to me suggests wizards could give two shits, and will likely keep Flash legal even after the first.
Ben's words are likely to make more players play the deck - which will help get it banned if it deserves it. He could have said it was the work of the devil himself and it would not have mattered. The deck dominating the GP is ONLY thing that will sway Wizards to make a change in the short term.
If you have one counter and it's very early, you always attempt to go off here, and you do it on your turn and not theirs so they can't safely use Pact of Negation if you also used a pact. They only have 4 Force of Wills to defend. Just make sure they can't Flash in response to your Flash. Games that reach 2 land apiece often become a game of chicken in the mirror match.
On the contrary, I understand perfectly. What Pinder can figure out to do with lesbians is not my business. (I, for example, would have them ambush straight women who had pissed me off in the past. Pinder might just prefer to empty his local grocery store of all their Jello and watch fun ensue.) I'm merely the vendor and points awarder.
I dunno if it's been mentioned, but you could use Lat-Nam's Legacy. It's not something you can do the same turn you're comboing, since it costs 2, but it allows you to shuffle the offending critter back in, and next upkeep, you get 2 cards. I used it a lot, I bought a box of Alliances and had a blast doing 4-6 man drafts from it. It's b-b-b-busted in limited.
I agree with the Lat-Nam's Legacy tech in the Kiki version; drawing the creatures is absolutely horrible in that verson. However, due the number of slots devoted to the kill condition in the Disciple version, I don't think it's possible to fit Lat-Nam's Legacy in there. Drawing Disciple/Wall/Marauder isn't really a problem, as the Disciples can be hard cast (If you are willing to risk it), and the 0/0 creatures can be casted post-combo for the last few points of damage if needed.
Nothing witty to say.
