Bah, I still haven't done this. OK, I'm bad. That's established. Let's see... Throg throws a left boot in the boiling liquid. -Grey squares are a smooth rock-like substance. They're safe. -Blue squares are the entrance you're coming through. The door leads back the way you came. -Red...

Blocks/responses?

Attack Melkor with Withered Wretch, done. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Command Zone: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Oversoul: 18 (Zombie Empire) Hand: 7 Library: 46 Battlefield: (U) Leechridden Swamp (Counts as...

Going to combat. War Oracle and Citadel Castellan as attackers?

Early on when making cuts and decisions in constructing this list, I noticed that blue/black control has no options for dealing with planeswalkers that aren't either overly narrow or inefficient. I've long held the deckbuilding philosophy that if you can't spot some glaring weaknesses, you...

Left boot or right boot?

I hid them pretty well, but not well enough. I don't remember if the topic has ever come up at the CPA, but a while back I built and sleeved up a Vintage Stax deck I pulled from someone else's tournament report (I think it was from 2015). Didn't really have other Vintage decks to pilot it...

So the bad news is that I still haven't made a graphical representation of this unusual room. The good news is that I found my playset of Smokestack! Revaethan will be the first to attempt the crossing. I'd ask where you're all positioned, but of course I haven't provided a map. Soon, though...

Hit a bit of a snag with this. I was up late last night and realized that I've misplaced all of my copies of the card Smokestack. There are a few other cards in this list I've never owned and will hopefully pick up at my local LGS soon, but they're mostly new and should be in-stock. Smokestack...

That's pretty weird. UUD, Pacifism on your War Oracle. Responses?

UUD, Cabal Coffers, roll the planar die and get nothing. Tap Coffers and 2 Swamps to make BBBB, pay B and reroll the planar die, get CHAOS! I get a dragon token. Siphon Mind, make you guys discard cards...

For the rules update associated with Coldsnap when the set was new, they created a "Snow" supertype and gave it to the old snow-covered basic lands as well as to a bunch of new permanents in Coldsnap. The supertype has no inherent functionality and it's easy to forget that it exists, but it does...

My next concoction for the West Coast Commander League. I continue to resist the temptation to bring in the most vicious combo decks I can think of. Points I can go for with this deck... -Cast two "creature wrath effects" (basically kill or exile all creatures, with some fine print for...

Citadel Castellan, done. Spidey: 13 Hand: 3 Library: 45 Battlefield: (T,T,U) Forest x3 (T,U) Plains x2 Pacifism (Enchanted creature can't attack or block) Pacifism (Enchanted creature can't attack or block) (U) Honored Hierarch (1/1; Renown 1 (When this creature deals combat dmg to a...

No way. Levitating only provides vertical movement. Throg was able to get over his companions by floating high and pushing off the wall to gain momentum while falling, but there's no leverage for that here and the distance is much greater. Throg might be able to react quickly enough to catch...

I promise there's no Ball Lightning in this deck! :p

No, she's much taller. She only has one usable foot. Her magic cane lets her keep moving forward at about the same pace someone with a cane would normally be able to walk, even if the terrain is uneven. But it doesn't help her jump, leap, hop, skip, climb, swim, cartwheel, pirouette, slide...

Yes, and I'm strongly considering this. I think the unfortunate problem in my particular case isn't that EDH makes hate decks inconsistent, but that the special penalty rules, some of them anyway, bolster certain types of decks that aren't as vulnerable to those hate cards. The decks I've been...

The official term is Beginning of Combat but you could also just do it during my Upkeep. Unless you were worried I was going to cast a surprise Ball Lightning or something... :p Alright, no attackers then. On to my second main phase?

Not even close. The distances between platforms is short enough that Dorgath can clear each leap (Jekaena cannot), but each leap would take a turn and it would take five of them to make it to the other side.
