  1. Re: LOTR Tales from Middle Earth: Our Burden To Bear Is a Purple Gandalf the Gray

    I'm going to stick it on an Isochron Scepter, not even Abrupt Decay can stop me now!
  2. Re: LOTR Tales from Middle Earth: Our Burden To Bear Is a Purple Gandalf the Gray

    Well yeah, Mordor isn't an evil place, Sauron and Morgoth before him just had... a different point of view, is all.
    The whole thing just gets blown out of proportion really
  3. Re: LOTR Tales from Middle Earth: Our Burden To Bear Is a Purple Gandalf the Gray

    I like the idea of the basic lands, but the execution in the form of "baby's first use of the crop tool" is a disappointment on what I expect will be a deep level.

    Re: Absinthe - Mono Green Poison

    Infect is already combo-ish, it just uses the combat step.
    If we're talking about a deck that wins via Poison counters, but doesn't use the combat step (or doesn't have to use the combat step) then...

    Re: Absinthe - Mono Green Poison

    Sylvan Paradise being green is probably the biggest get.

    Re: Absinthe - Mono Green Poison

    Quick search for spells that let you target "any number of target creature"
    Cauldron Haze
    Energy Arc
    Scapegoat
    Sway of Illusion

    Seems like it'd be a different deck entirely, but Venerated...
  9. Re: 'Mississippi River' (All In Creativity Technique Combo)

    Oblivion Ring or equivalents to remove the threat?
    Gilded Drake to steal the threat?

    Ensnaring Bridge seems bad for both of you.

    Light of Day is the closest, but that's CMC 4

    Seems Sandwurm...
  10. Re: 'Mississippi River' (All In Creativity Technique Combo)

    Small point of order, Tibalt's Trickery "cascades" until it hits a spell with a different name, so Trickery on Throes means Throes of Chaos isn't a live hit, you just move past it.
    So really...
  11. Re: [ONE] Phyrexia: All Will Be One Single Spoiler

    I mean there's The Filigree Sylex that lets you trade 10 oil counters for 10 damage to any one target. Not just from it, just 10 oil counters from among permanents you control.
    ...
  12. Re: [ONE] Phyrexia: All Will Be One Single Spoiler

    To which blue dragon might you be referencing?
  13. Re: Painter's Servant & nontraditional Magic cards: i.e. Undercity Dungeon

    Cool, yet to see this on anybody's videos, but that does seem like where you would see it clearly indicated even if there's never any functional interaction.
    Thanks!
  14. Painter's Servant & nontraditional Magic cards: i.e. Undercity Dungeon

    Painter's Servant says All cards that aren't on the battlefield, spells, and permanents are the chosen color in addition to their other colors.

  15. Re: [ONE] Phyrexia: All Will Be One Single Spoiler

    Cage stopping GSZ and NO on top of the typical graveyard stuff seems to be it's unique sectors.

    Soulless Jailer does not stop playing the land off EI, which is the preferred play in most cases....
  16. Re: [ONE] Phyrexia: All Will Be One Single Spoiler

    What's the Venn Diagram of this compared to Grafdigger's Cage?
    They hit a lot of the same stuff, but Cage stops Hogaak.
    This stops getting not lands off EI I guess, but then that's already a sub...
  17. Re: [ONE] Phyrexia: All Will Be One Single Spoiler

    I'll clarify again I'm not an infect player, but I don't think the Toxic v. Infect of Rotpriest is the key takeaway. Since it's when any of their creatures gets targeted by any spell, it makes all...
  18. Re: [ONE] Phyrexia: All Will Be One Single Spoiler

    I agree it's not just colorshifted Bitterblossom. Not flying and not blocking are big downsides, since grinding the opponent down and having a summoning sick creature to block every turn is how those...
  19. Re: [ONE] Phyrexia: All Will Be One Single Spoiler

    Skrelv's Hive is a more complicated Bitterblossom in white.

    I don't know the viability of Infect anymore, but imagining playing against Venerated Rotpriest and getting 2-3 poison just from...

    Re: Mono W Initiative Stompy

    Well DtB hasn't been updated since summer.
    We're well beyond rogue deck, people should expect to face and have sideboard strategies against this deck.

    Question for the pilots: what additions does...

    Re: [Deck] ANT (Ad Nauseam Tendrils) Storm Combo

    You're right, but the roll was 6+2, not quite deterministic as I said.
    But turning back on the artifacts for both storm & mana does make for much more dangerous hands in general.
    Only downside is...
