Oh, and here's the changelog... -Vish Kal, Blood Arbiter: I do not actually need most of those abilities and can go with a cheaper sac outlet. -Angel of Despair: Back out again. I sometimes used this to destroy my own creatures, but now I have more sac outlets. Could potentially go back in...

At long last, the deck has a new update. I present Version 5.0: an overhaul of Hulking proportions... Commander 1x Karador, Ghost Chieftain Creatures 1x Abyssal Gatekeeper 1x Academy Rector 1x Apprentice Necromancer 1x Ashen Rider 1x Avacyn's Pilgrim 1x Birds of Paradise 1x Blood Pet 1x Body...

"In advance? Well, I suppose that if it helps you kill Utronicus, fine. Go right ahead. As for what you're up against, I can't be entirely sure. He has Chaos magic and he has some daemonic servants. No Greater Daemons or I'd know about it. I'm not going to lie: my Plan B is that if he kills the...

"Thank you, dwarf. I thought I could count on you to be reasonable. Now, I've been here a long time. My lord Tzeentch has plans for what you call the "Wildwood" and these plans span many centuries. So I look out for things. There's no love lost between me and the leaders of the wood elves. So...

In the Lion's Eye Diamond thread, I talked about the emergence of Storm decks starting in 2003 and resulting in the restriction of LED. Wheel of Fortune was part of the suite of cards responsible for this and I think that Wheel has never really lost its association with Storm combo in the...

Hm, not really seeing a contradiction myself, but maybe "ominous" is getting interpreted as "big" or something like that. Should have been more clear. I used it more to mean that it seems like there's an established trail along the forest floor and then it suddenly terminates in a sharp descent...

*The bluff is steep, but not very tall, and although you cannot see the figure in the shadows below well enough to tell for sure that it is standing on solid ground, there is also no indication that it is floating or anything like that. The whole party could walk down the bluff easily enough and...

I did receive confirmation that I have priority access. Also, while I haven't played a demo of the game or anything quite so cool as that, I might have some minor points of interest to talk about once the game is actually out and an NDA stops applying. ;)

For some reason, most of the cards that really seem to combo directly with Wheel of Fortune are black. Underworld Dreams is the first and one of the most potent. Others include Megrim, Phyrexian Tyranny, Chains of Mephistopheles, Kederekt Parasite, Spiteful Visions, Waste Not, Liliana's Caress...

The path forward leads to a steep, ominous bluff. Jekaena: "What? This isn't right. I mean, it was right before. Where the snotlings attacked us just a moment ago. I mean, I recognized it. But I don't now. I mean, it's different..." A mysterious figure in the darkness ahead gestures...

Boo.

Bump to remind me we are done here. Kept thinking I was still waiting on Rokapoke. Putting Tomas on autopilot for the time being. He shall return to normal whenever Rokapoke shirks his real-life responsibilities.

No one else has chimed in on it, but a while back I started a thread in "Classic Questions" about "top five memorable cards." I'd seen the question come up elsewhere and thought it was interesting because narrowing it down to five cards is tricky. For myself, I settled on Dark Ritual (already...

UUD, Plains, Thragtusk, done. Spidey: 20 Hand: 3 Library: 43 Battlefield: (T,T) Mt x2 (T,U) Island x2 (U) Swamp Burning Vengeance (Whenever I cast a spell from my graveyard, ~ deals 2 dmg to target creature or player) (T) Armored Skaab (1/4; When ~ ETB, put the top four cards of my...

My most prolific use for Wheel of Fortune would easily be in red Burn decks, which is a little odd to consider because, before I built "Wheel in Flames" I had not used Wheel of Fortune in a Burn deck in years. I first used Wheel in a Burn deck in either 1998 or 1999, kept it up through about...

I've got nothing.

UUD, Forest, Elvish Visionary, Llanowar Elves, done. Spidey: 20 Hand: 4 Library: 44 Battlefield: (T,T) Mt x2 (T,U) Island x2 Burning Vengeance (Whenever I cast a spell from my graveyard, ~ deals 2 dmg to target creature or player) (U) Armored Skaab (1/4; When ~ ETB, put the top four...

I don't know whether that video will turn out to be the best presentation of what's wrong with that announcement, but it's to-the-point and he's one of the most popular Magic video people. Personally, I haven't really delved into this issue because I have, apparently, been one of the lucky...

I'll get back to our regularly scheduled programming in a bit here, but here's a brief aside... My previous post linked to my "Wheel in Flames" article from January of 2015. In that article, I noted that the reliance on Wheel of Fortune prevented my deck from being a budget list, as the card...
