-Carrow quaffs a healing potion (10/17 Wounds). One of the spiders thaws out and Throg immediately begins eating it. He finds that it tastes mostly like any other raw spider he's ever eaten. It maybe has a bit more of a gamey taste to it and the texture is smoother than he expected.

UUD...

UUD, Lyev Skyknight detaining Rakdos Shred-Freak, attack with my other Lyev Skyknight. Responses?

Dark Petition also made Necropotence stronger once it was on the battlefield, because it gave the deck an unrestricted tool similar to Demonic Tutor, which could then be used to fetch Yawgmoth's Will. This made a 7-card hand with lethal spell-chaining for Tendrils more easily achievable. Play an...

Although other components of Storm decks have varied, the role of Necropotence remained generally the same. But it did see one big change with the advent of Dark Petition... Players quickly found that Dark Petition was better for fetching Yawgmoth's Will than other cards used for the job in...

While one-off Necropotence has been a consistent staple in Vintage Storm decks, its role in deck construction over the years has been a bit murky. I think some builds just threw it in as a play to set up a potential third-turn kill if nothing else better was available, while other builds leaned...

For the uninitiated, and I gather that most players don't have much experience with Vintage Storm decks, the application of Necropotence in Vintage combo decks is different from its historical use in most of the decks I've talked about here. While there's no exact rule, old Necro decks tended to...

Trying? Trying! I succeeded. :p

Necropotence was restricted in Type 1 and banned in every other active tournament format. I would go on to play casual decks with four copies of the card for several years afterward, to mixed reactions. I just didn't want to give up on the card. But the story of Necropotence in sanctioned play...

My latest Comboist Manifesto endeavor is probably going to show up on the front page at some point. But I've also written another new article, my first non-Comboist article in a long time. I wanted to keep it separate from those articles because they're about my ideas on Magic theory, combo...

One of them won't thaw out until next turn. The other one is about to thaw out, but Throg is in the way, trying to chew on it like some kind of psychopath.

-Carrow breaks free from the webbing. -Jekaena struggles in the webbing entangling her and remains stuck. -The spider Carrow torched suffers more burning damage (2/20 Wounds). -Tomas casts Freeze! on 4 of the spiders. The spider that was burned by Carrow's fire arrow succumbs, as do the spiders...

Bah, sorry for still not getting back to this. I had set aside time yesterday (so that it'd be ready for Monday morning for anyone coming back after the weekend) and then had an impromptu get-together with my family. Got to play some games of Magic with my brother, so that was cool. Anyway...

Oh! OK then. The tabs to switch sheets on Google docs aren't as prominent as the ones in Open Office or I just didn't think to look for it.

But Phyrexian Metamorph is so good! Like, really, really good.

Some minor changes after cracking a bunch of Dominaria packs. Firstly, Skullclamp was unreliable in this deck. If I did happen to get a good card that made tokens, the card-drawing was huge, but it didn't usually work out that way. And I guess I never mentioned, but the Mountain was a bit of a...

I can open it, but it just looks like random number tables on a spreadsheet to me...

Purelace your guys and block them. :p

Still no.

Nope.
