Yikes. I had a family member who had a similar accident several years ago (but there was no curb and she hit a telephone pole). Motor mount was broken and yeah, the car was declared totaled. Hope you have better luck...

What was this? I can't even comprehend—why was I using such bad cards? Was this a limited format? Did Ransac build my deck for some reason? I don't remember this at all, but I came across it while looking for something else...

I got an 11.

I'll be Guided by Nature.

Any deck preference, Rokapoke?

Well, I thought my deck was pretty good, but I finally got to play it against real opponents in several games and it generally got trounced. I knew my deck was in trouble when one of my opponents led with a Nihil Spellbomb, then my other opponent dropped a Tormod's Crypt. I kept almost fighting...

Yeah, those are the ones.

Well, since I've never actually played any of the 2014 decks, I'd like to try them. So how about those ones? Who wants to pick a deck first?

Well, now Birthing Pod has no place in any popular formats outside Commander. Might be worthwhile to pick up a set for a casual deck. I almost feel sorry for Pod players, but at least they could try their pet card in Legacy, even if it's probably too slow there. My old pet card, on the other...

Pod has been the best deck in Modern at various points and especially took over in the past few months. Banning Treasure Cruise and Dig Through Time wouldn't directly hurt the top deck in the format, as Pod decks don't run either card. If it seems odd that they'd ban three cards, one from the...

Full list of changes here: http://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/feature/banned-and-restricted-announcement-2015-01-19 Notably, Jeskai Ascendancy was left alone in Modern, despite speculation that it would be banned for being too fast. And now I finally have to stop making that joke...

Perhaps if you want to also do a creature swarm deck, the commander should be Rhys, the Redeemed?

Yeah, I don't think it's quite that high, but given some hypothetical optimal play, I believe that the Tezzeret deck would have a decisive advantage.

That was only a number of times!

Most of the unusual rules surround deck construction, which isn't an issue with pre-built decks. As for gameplay itself... The game starts with each player announcing his/her commander and placing that card in the "command zone" (which is also now officially the same zone that emblems occupy...

Spiderman and Mooseman have been dueling here with the 2013 Commander decks. I remember how, after the original 2011 Commander decks came out, we tried to start up a game with all five of them, but it went on hiatus and never came back or something. I haven't seen the new 2014 decks in action...

Hey, these decks are from Commander 2013, not Commander 2014.

Definitely. In my as-yet-unpublished article, I elected to focus initially on mono-red. I forget exactly what my reasoning was in the article, but my take on it is that mono-red feels the purest, if that makes any sense, and also that blue/red has too many ridiculously powerful combos. But I do...
