As you continue along the path, Kelgar heals Revaethan's wounds and the party is fully recuperated, ready for action. You are delayed a bit because the power-laden atmosphere of the Wildwood briefly incapacitates Throg, but nothing attacks and the Chaos Warrior shrugs the episode off. The...

It's been a while, but this deck finally used Arena Rector. I think it's pretty good, but as it happened, I didn't trust it enough at the time. Played a bunch of Canadian Highlander last night, with multiple games using all three of my current Canadian Highlander decks. The last game was an epic...

Good point.

That's why I said, "I guess trivia is supposed to be obscure and all." I don't think there's a hard and fast rule on this stuff. But at some point, you drift from "tricky questions most people can't answer, but interesting" and more toward "gotcha!" I guess my take is that this quiz has a bit of...

I got 21, but some of them were a little silly. I mean, I guess trivia is supposed to be obscure and all, but asking stuff like, "What percentage of the cards in this set were black?" feels a little too specifically related to the nitty-gritty set design stuff and not to the game itself. No...

OK, ready for real now...

Heads it is. And I randomly picked (out of the three other decks) Second Sun Control for this one. I'll shuffle it up this evening.

Part of the mythos surrounding Library of Alexandria has its origin in Zak Dolan's original World Championship winning deck... 1 Birds of Paradise 1 Clone 1 Ley Druid 2 Old Man of the Sea 4 Serra Angel 1 Time Elemental 1 Vesuvan Doppleganger 1 Ancestral Recall 2 Disenchant 1 Mana Drain 1...

Oops, still haven't sleeved these up. But I guess since they were all released at the same time, we just pair them up randomly?

Bump?

Haha, so that and the potion he used earlier were both things that he got randomly from sections in the Wizard's Guild. Now that he used that power, it's gone. Whenever he visits a Wizard's Guild, he can pay gold for a "Consultation" and one of the potential results is +1D6 Strength for one turn...

-Dorgath's axe heals 1 of his Wounds (yes, I forgot to include that in my previous post). -The Power Phase is 3. -Dorgath's Lifestone of Ashraz restores 2 of his Wounds (22/25). -Jekaena casts Finger of Life, but it fizzles. -Jekaena casts Finger of Life, but it fizzles. -Tomas casts Life Force...

Next turn... -The Power Phase is 3 for this turn.

-The Power Phase is 3. -Dorgath's Lifestone of Ashraz restores 1 of his Wounds (21/25). -Jekaena casts Finger of Life on Ty (13/20). -Jekaena casts Finger of Life again, but it fizzles. -Tomas casts Glory! Everyone in the party gets +1 Attacks this turn. -Kelgar fails to bless anything. -Ty...

I'm sure the vast majority of usage of this card has been in decks containing just one copy. I'll move on to that soon. But as a final note on the potential for multiple copies in one deck, I do remember that at one point I advocated that Library should be unrestricted in Vintage. This was a few...

Next round... -The Power Phase is 3 for this turn.

-The Power Phase is 5 for this turn. -Dorgath's Lifestone of Ashraz restores 2 of his Wounds (22/25). -Jekaena casts Heal Wounds on herself (10/14). -Jekaena casts Heal Wounds on herself (12/14). -Tomas is still ethereal. -Kelgar blesses Ty and Tomas with Power of Sigmar, healing them (11/20...

Dorgath cannot fight and eat stonebread at the same time. Alas, no. I think I rolled three 5's on that spell, but it has to roll 6 to work.

I didn't set out to legitimize the notion that Library is the "tenth power." It's a quirk of the game's history that it got called that or that the "Power 9" concept came about in the first place. This is all relative anyway. Tons of players never got experience with other old, rare cards like...

"But Oversoul," you inquire, "how is that stupid pile of cards supposed to actually win games? Is it some obnoxious combo?" Well, I'm glad you asked, because yes, it's the most obnoxious combo. I realized explosive potential of The Gitrog Monster + Dakmor Salvage (particularly with a discard...
