Heads it is. No mulligan here.

Playing it cool like he totally hasn't been hiding from us all year.

I do still have the one that I used (but I have some vague recollection of not wanting to post it on the boards because of spammers). I'm actually (slowly) working on an article, but was planning to post it to the forums instead of emailing it, to see which would be better. Were I not so lazy...

First, I want to get one thing out of the way, and it's a big thing: Necropotence. When either of these cards come up in any context outside of the use of Necropotence in the mid-90's before Bargain existed, the comparison between the cards almost inevitably follows. And before today, I had this...

Yeah, even for casual decks in a more laid-back environment, four mana is asking a lot for a 1/1 creature. I do think that the card had potential (it would probably have made more of a splash if it had been printed in Ice Age instead of Mirage). And Stun Sniper, which is in an awkward color...

Welcome back. I enjoyed your old writing that had been posted here and was a bit sad to see it go, although I could understand why you wanted it that way. Well, you'd have to meet our very high editorial standards. In my hazy recollection, the two favorite topics for writing here at the CPA...

As you continue moving along the path, a cacophony of movement fills the brush surrounding you. Goblins pour forth, shuffling through the brush to attack. There are 12 goblins and 4 goblin bosses. -The Power Phase is 4.

UUD, well, that's it. No matter what I use Oblivion Ring on, if you alpha strike me, I'm taking at least 10 damage. :( Well done. I already knew that I was in trouble, but once I saw the Altar's Reap in response to Divine Deflection, I figured it wouldn't be long.

The path between the trees tapers into a narrow tunnel. All is quiet so far, but small monsters could potentially move through the undergrowth and attack. T: Throg R: Revaethan D: Dorgath K: Kelgar O: Tomas J: Jekaena Y: Ty C: Carrow

This is a card that I haven't really used in a long time. I wonder how it would do these days. I mean, it's no tournament card, but just as a scrubby casual utility creature. Four mana is a bit much, but it could still work. These days, they would either make the creature bigger or provide the...

Among casual players in my area, Royal Assassin was all the rage. Alas, I didn't own Royal Assassin, but I did own Abyssal Hunter. Now, one might think that those two creatures are dissimilar: Royal Assassin kills creatures if they are tapped and Abyssal Hunter taps creatures and damages them...

I thought that I was probably going for an obscure card when I started a thread about Pursuit of Knowledge, but apparently Melkor used it. So now I'm dipping deeper into the well of obscurity! Kind of. I mean, that's not really what this is about... I noticed that I tend to focus on...

You wind through more stands of trees, eventually crossing a long bridge over a deep chasm, where it looks like you can see orcs and goblins moving around. You pass over them and continue through the canopy. "We're getting close now. Hopefully we get through the Pine Crags soon and we can get...

Alright then. Submerged Boneyard, then I'll cast Extract from Darkness. I put Lightning Bolt and Cinder Barrens into my graveyard. Show me even more stuff!

So I don't draw a card off it and it's a creature that you'll just recur later with an ability? How rude! Well, what do your friends discard?

"She's dead? Well, that's a relief. I wonder if Coril knows. He was under her thrall, so he'd either be crushed or completely enraged, but I don't know which. There are bound to be other dark elves involved, though. So we should still be careful." You proceed further through the canopy...

Bump. Show me dem dreams!

On the one hand, it would be overly pessimistic to assume that it's not worth it to leave them feedback when multiple people in R&D have emphasized that they do pay attention to player feedback. On the other hand, if I'm honest, which I feel like I have to be, it's a weird position to be coming...

Adjusted my life to account for Highborn Ghoul damage (Divine Deflection lost its target and fizzled). UUD, Porcelain Legionnaire, done. Spiderman: 20 Hand: 3 Library: 41 Battlefield: (T,T,T,T,T,T,U) Swamp x7 (U) Skinrender Creature-Zombie (3/3; When ~ ETB, put three -1/-1 ctrs on...

Nope. Huh, I don't think I can win at this point, but I forget what else I might topdeck so I guess we'll see...
