Next turn... -The Power Phase is 6 for this turn. -Dorgath does not find any evidence of secret doors. He also does not remember seeing any keys. Revaethan: "Well, I don't know about any locked doors down here, but I've never been in this part of the temple. Jekaena knew some magic and...

http://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/news/amonkhet-split-card-rules-changes-2017-04-04 He didn't mention the bizarre Brain in a Jar interaction with Fuse spells, but this rules change kills it. The change is kinda reminiscent of the Waylay nerf, but also very different in some key...

Haha, awesome first post.

I've seen enough hilarity to know that the Invocations have been received with an appropriate measure of scorn. But am I the only one who thinks the Aftermath cards look ugly? I suppose that I was never the biggest split card fan, but I got used to them. This version seems worse, though.

Echoing Aaron Forsythe there, I think the consensus is that for a tribal slivers EDH deck, Sliver Overlord is the optimal commander. Although for a faster, more aggressive deck, one could arguably go for Sliver Legion's dramatic turn five boost, although I'd be hesitant to give up the huge...

Here's Aaron Forsythe's blurb for the inclusion of Sliver Queen in Commander's Arsenal... "The level-one deck for Sliver Queen is, well, a bunch of Slivers and mana fixing. But you don't need me to tell you that, right? Sliver Legion and Sliver Overlord are perfectly good at doing that job, so...

At some point in 2005 or 2006, I pooled my cards with my friend Nick's cards. It was weird, but it was preceded by some other things. He had planned to quit Magic at various points, and by storing his cards at my place, he didn't have to deal with them. But then later, I lured him back to the...

Despite the poor penmanship, Tomas is able to read the notes. Kind of. He thinks they were written by two different goblins... Note 1 Da boss not gonna pay me til we gets da green roks all in da water. So u better get rid of pesky elves. I make more sik ones n send em in. Da boss gave to uz...

I'm more excited for the new card types, such as "DlIRSTARTlM." :rolleyes:

Price memory is a thing, but in the case of SotF, its price sank rapidly after it was banned in Legacy and it has since climbed steadily. I don't think it's just because of EDH, but given how often I see it turn up in EDH decks, I'm assuming that's a big part of it. The fact that it's a Reserved...

-Lifebringer heals Tomas for 3, Throg for 5, Carrow to full Wounds, and Revaethan to full Wounds. -Kelgar fails to bless anything. -Ty finds a Bone Blade. (The Bone Blade is magic, operating as a normal sword, but once per adventure all of the wielder's attacks can be traded for a special attack...

I keep holding out hope that this set isn't going to be bad, but so far that has yet to be vindicated. In my vague recollection, the fans of Greek mythology seemed excited for Theros. But as a bit of an Egyptian mythology fan, I'm just finding everything about Amonkhet annoying.

Haha, not really. To be fair to the teacher, I think he was mostly just trying to work with what he had, take an optimistic approach to the class and all that. I did see him again, not 20 years later but probably about 10, but didn't bring that class up. My impression was that he was basically...

-The Power Phase is 3 for this turn. -Dorgath's Lifestone of Ashraz restores him to full Wounds.

Did anyone else pick up Commander's Arsenal? I remember it being rather obscure. They made the original Commander preconstructed decks in 2011 and then failed to capitalize on that as an annual thing at first, so in 2012, instead of Commander decks, they released a much cooler product: a box of...

It started out with Heartstone and Ashnod's Altar, but I discovered that, like Enduring Renewal, Sliver Queen was one of those cards that enabled lots of different combos. Another favorite of mine was Sliver Queen + Argothian Elder + Intruder Alarm. The most efficient one I've seen is probably...

At some point, I finished collecting complete playsets of every sliver card. But by then, I was experienced enough to see that just packing them all into the same deck was not ideal. I did eventually build a three-color tribal slivers deck, separate from my five-color combo "SQ" deck. It was...

In junior high school, I went to the "model school for technology" for one of the largest school districts in the state of Washington, so that meant they were haphazardly throwing students into random, technology-themed classes in which we learned to use borderline-deprecated hardware and...

Cycling dual lands are coming in this set. RIP Drifting Meadow, Remote Isle, Polluted Mire, Smoldering Crater, and Slippery Karst. But I like this, and cycling is looking promising, which is cool because stuff like Astral Slide has a lot of potential. Nothing that will create a big...
