    Hahaha, it was almost like I was controlled by some unseen force.
    You played that Survival and all of a sudden my goal was to make sure you died that game.
    ROFL you didn't even have any creatures in your hand! AND YOU TOLD/SHOWED ME THAT!

    I'm going to test this, and probably put it together soon. I think it's a much better take on Azami than I would have created I hope you don't mind me playing it. Let me know if you think of any of the cards you might have forgotten :) It seems tight as is.

    That's the beauty of the format. Going off in the face of 8 players trying to disrupt you is even more fun :) You'd be surprised how often you'll hit a point in the game when no one has targetted removal, or counters. Still, there are much better decks in the format.

    You're being ironic, yes? I mean, if you have two 0 CC artifacts, it's infinite, but otherwise...

    This guy gets a fuck yes because he's a Mirage common that's basically trash - but he got errattad to a Merfolk Wizard. I've been loving that dude goin on 14 years. In an earlier version, I had Apprentice Wizard in the deck, and I wish I still could justify him - Who doesn't love a Dark Rit Dude? Problem is, he costs too much. Sea Scryer fits the curve.

    Sky Diamond - This is the hardest part of the deck to figure out, to me. Being Mono Colored means you're extremely limited in your artifact accelleration - all the stuff that produces either comes into play tapped or costs three. I prefer the more expensive option that can be used that turn. On the other hand, using Mind Stone and Prismatic Lens may just be better. I haven't put much testing into it.

    Feel free to play with it, it's a blast to play.

    Re: EDH - Elder Land Dragon

    At the very least, Coalition Relic should probably be in there.

    And Bryant, I think your list is 99 cards. Didn't count closely though.

    Can't wait until I get out of class to go play some MWS EDH Anyone up for it? I feel like I should play this at least a couple of times before I go out and build it.

    Re: EDH - Elder Land Dragon

    I used to play Momir Vig until everyone, including me, got tired of it. It was pretty ridiculous. My current personal favorite is Stonebrow, Krosan Hero, as the deck recovers from multiple mass removal spells fairly easily, especially with Fires of Yavimaya, Anger, and In the Web of War to go hasty on bitches. It's a lot more fun to me than trying to go off in the face of multiple counterspells, or playing with Zur, etc.

    Re: EDH - Elder Land Dragon

    Well, the thing is dat I don't like playing red at all, so therefore all the legends including red weren't going to cut it for me :P

    The legends itself is pretty cool indead, with Fires, Primal Rage etc. Simple bashing time :D

    The deck either sucks big time, or it 0wns everybody. It can easily be beaten in the first couple of turns unless I have a killer hand. If this isn't done and I have enough time to get started, I often turn out winning. The agony is the shuffling all the time, that sucks with so many cards in the deck.

    Why do you play so many cards in a standard multiplayer deck? Is that just a playgroup rule?

    After you kill the first player, do you just attack with Maga? I suppose if you get Maga killed, you can make 2 more mana and drain life someone else
