Yeah, Miracles mirrors are nothing compared to some of the other mirrors out there...the Shardless mirror can get pretty dumb when both players have 3 Baleful Strixes on the board and nobody wants to attack. Miracles v Lands can also be a pretty long slog.Quote:

So for the first time, I got a Miracles list posted as a 5-0 in a league for which I didn't even go 5-0. Apparently, this has also happened with another Miracles player I know. Is there something about the MTGO posting algorithm that somehow may cause Miracles list to be over-represented among these 5-0 lists?
(I have also had several 5-0s for which the lists were never posted. I think these were usually with decks other than Miracles.)
Well with regards to your second point, only a random selection of 5-0's get posted so that's normal. Not sure what to say about the first one, must be a bug.Quote:

As obnoxiously bad as the Counterbalance invocation is, I don't see how it's any worse than FTV JTMS.
They are both horrendously offensive, glad we're in agreement here.Quote:

I can't wait to resolve these in Vegas :tongue:. I think I am the only person that likes these versions lol. Although I will stick to acquiring JP Forces.Quote:

check out! :tongue:
I'm 100% getting the worst looking cards on magic online. That place is so tilting already, might as well go all out.
Unrelated: Anuraag Das (Rover) (Twitch.tv/anzi104) is playing vs Jarvis Yu (Snoopy) (Twitch.tv/jarvisyu) pretty soon.
It's gonna be epic.

I never change up my versions of cards, but I think you guys are crazy for hating on the new stuff. I think they are cool. If they came in non-foils I would actually consider playing them.
I'm a big fan of most of the masterpieces. These ones just are impossible to read, and the artwork looks like computer-generated. Almost like Diablo 3 screenshots.Quote:

I mean I get it that any of these cards can finish off Grixis when Miracles has them in a lock already, but often times Miracles needs a more proactive card to stem the bleeding, otherwise Delver just 1-for-1s them and wins because it doesn't play out all its lands and thus generally has way more spells in hand.
Any thoughts?
Resolve a mid-game Mentor with instant-speed spells in hand and then just wait for them to pop removal?Quote:

It's a tough MU, but I would probably go for the ETA kill over Mentor in this case.
