No mulligan here. Swamp, Vampire Lacerator, done. Spiderman: 20 Hand: ? Library:? Battlefield: Graveyard: Exile: ==================================================================================================== Oversoul: 20 Hand: 5 Library: 53 Battlefield: (T) Swamp (S) Vampire...

The Urza's Saga Pestilence had amazing art. The set also made Pestilence a common instead of an uncommon, which had amusing consequences for Limited formats. Having Pestilence at common was also relevant for Peasant Magic... Many years ago, a member here by the name of Ephraim was a big...

I'm surprised at how little hype there is for the new Nissa. Looks like one of the strongest planeswalker cards ever. I think people are underestimating the extent to which the flexibility is built into her mana cost, in contrast to other planeswalkers where the flexibility is contained pretty...

Got tails this time. I'll sleeve up Vampire Onslaught when I get home this evening. Good luck.

Yikes. I don't think that was typical performance for these decks. We both kept drawing lands more than would be expected. Preordain might have made the difference just shoving some of them to the bottom of my library. Even so, I thought your Bloodthrone Vampire would be the end of me. Two of...

Combat damage?

I'll pump the Hellkite twice to make it a 7/5. Responses?

UUD, Glacial Fortress, Attack with everything, blocks?

Oops. No changes from me though, except I don't spend mana on a second activation and Hellkite is a 6/5 instead of a 2/1.

My monoblack Pestilence or "Radium" deck had a few different incarnations over the years. I had one throughout high school. Later, I took apart all of my decks except for Burn. Then one of the first decks I built was a similar Pestilence deck to my old one. When my entire collection was...

That does throw a monkey wrench into the works! I was assuming you'd either have an outright kill spell and use it after I did all that stuff or you wouldn't have one. Obviously I won't spend all of my mana to pump the Hellkite if you target it with Dismember in response to the Grand Architect's...

Untap, upkeep, draw. Well, here goes... Tap an Island for U and use it to activate Grand Architect's ability to make Steel Hellkite blue and that makes it a 6/6 due to Grand Architect), then activate Grand Architect's other ability tapping both itself and Lord of the Unreal for 4 mana. Tap my...

I got the idea of using Urza's Armor with Pestilence from that preconstructed deck and never really gave up on it. At 6 mana, Urza's Armor can be a bit much, but it's generally a good card, blanking opposing 1/X attackers entirely and linearly cutting down damage that opponents can dish out...

Activate Steel Hellkite's ability for 2. Bloodthrone Vampire and Gatekeeper of Malakir die and make eldrazi spawn tokens?

UUD, Island, attack with Steel Hellkite, blocks/responses?

Also, the Power Phase is 5.

No response.

For reasons that, as with much of this stuff, I've completely forgotten, I had a strange convention of naming my Pestilence decks after isotopes. Probably what happened was that I arbitrarily called my first black/white Pestilence deck "Hydrogen." And then the next version was "Hydrogen 2" which...
