Cavius? Is that you?

:tongue:

Said DotA 2 tournament (The International) now has a prize-pool of over $15,000,000 and is going to be the largest E-Sports event in history. Also, even more frightening is that only 1/4 of the cash...

This is because WotC is well known for being cheap as hell and paying their employees crap. There's a reason that most people who go there to do game design leave soon after to other companies....

Yes...and no.

Welder's obviously got the time advantage on his side, being one mana and all, but Daretti has functional haste, is a looting engine, and isn't vulnerable to creature removal. Both...

Wrong. Best land is clearly:

All hail the forestless forest!

Art by Eric Deschamps is the first line. It's a Vignere Cipher using the same key as the original Conspiracy page: GVYJTHQXGR

As for the ONRGZEDW, I got nothing. Using the above key I get ISTXGXNZ.

After reading the past few pages of discussion I started to think about which classifications are used with relative frequency. I eventually settled on the following nine: aggro, control, combo,...

Honestly, I think we might want new criteria for deck taxonomy altogether. Certainly, Aggro/Combo/Control isn't satisfactory as it really doesn't say anything about Tempo or Midrange. While I don't...

Bought my playset in 2004 for $20. Best Magic-related buy I ever made.

EDIT: I hate to be "that guy," but is this the beginning of the end for the format? I mean, we're at the point where a...

'Nother MUD noob here. I was finally able to obtain the cards I needed at GPDC and I've been playtesting with multiple builds. All of my testing has been exclusively with the mainboard. I'll...

I was witness to a match between Alex and an L4 judge at GPDC and asked him (the L4) after the match and out of earshot of Alex about whether or not he was actively looking for cheating on Alex's...

One of the guys over at the game store I play at as been running this deck for a while and has been having success with it. What ended up working really nicely inside the deck was Blood Scrivener,...

Back in my day, before Tarmogoyf was printed and cards like Exalted Angel and Lightning Rift saw play in competitive decks...

If there wasn't a problem, they would likely have been made uncommon. R&D didn't want mana fixing to be easily available in Theros limited, thus the cycle is rare. And while I know it's cool and all...

Think about what happens when you use Thespian's Stage to copy Dark Depths. Once you realize what's going on, you'll understand exactly why it's going to go up.

Welder MUD did.

Weeeeeeellp, I was looking for an excuse to use my Puresteel Paladins and it looks like this is it. This looks absofrigginlutely spectacular. Having the Puresteel engine and Stoneforge toolbox in the...

This is...surprisingly accurate. I mean, I'm going to be play mono-green in Standard once DKA is out. MONO-GREEN! I think the last time I even considered doing that was...never? I mean, I suppose If...

Do you still have your improved list? This sounds like it would be hilarious to bring to the Modern events over at my local FLGS on Tuesdays.

Because either Wizards doesn't care about Legacy or it wants to actively kill Legacy. Pick one.

Please give me Recruiters. PLEASE.

I would love to be able to play Goblins again.

Honestly, though, can you say that banning Vengevine would have been the correct choice over banning Survival? Vengevine wasn't inherently broken, it just happened to push Survival of the Fittest...

Delver of Secrets is more powerful than he otherwise would be BECAUSE of Brainstorm. Without Brainstorm, Delver would not come online as consistently as he does.
Snapcaster Mage is more powerful...

Most people play blue because nothing is more powerful in a game of randomness than having the ability to decrease said randomness. Blue has access to the best tools for increasing consistency and as...

I think the reason people play blue is pretty clear. It has nothing to do with the existence of combo and everything to do with the fact that blue is the color of consistency. In a game like Magic...
