I've heard rumors about players with too much money who only play limited formats, but I don't think I've personally met such people.

Where is Spiderman?

Ooh. Looking forward to that.

Maybe, but I can't really take credit for that. I didn't buy that many cards when I was younger, but I started a long time ago and kept my cards, so some of them that weren't expensive would later become expensive. I have two younger brothers that at different points had small collections and...

Having discovered the Duel Decks I inherited from a friend's collection and reassembled them, I could see them holding a permanent spot in my arsenal. They're meant to be played against each other, so I like the idea of keeping them around for playing them against each other or letting other...

I think it's great. I mean, individual duels are what have really held my interest in the game over the years, but I usually find chaotic multiplayer hijinks to be very fun, even when I expend the contents of my hand to heroically save everyone from the guy attempting to win with an infinite...

I've always liked Commandeer. It has a pretty heavy requirement on using it, though. You need blue cards, and preferably lots of them. If it is something your deck can cast without too much trouble, then it's pretty strong and seems like it would make sense alongside your other strategies.

I think KJ is talking about some of the arguments here over current events and political happenings. As for cards gaining value, a lot of that could be attributed to the rise of Legacy as a popular format. The guru lands are more of a "pimp my deck" thing some people do, but Wasteland and LED...

Maybe we could get more articles? Amused as I am to have taken over the front page, it would be cool to see other articles being published here again.

Ah, the originals. Yeah, I'd be provoked by almost any planeswalker in a multiplayer game, just because their ultimates are usually game-breaking and people might try to build up to them.

Yucky? Yucky! Sir, I demand that you draw your weapon and defend yourself. But seriously, I recognize that aesthetic differences are subjective. If you prefer the new card frame, that's fine, even if you are wrong. :p Yes, but I'm skeptical that flickering him is sufficient for that. Making...

Well, you can do what you want, but that distinction is totally fake. There was nothing about the card frame changes that was meant to make cards from before Eighth Edition "Pre-Modern." Cards from before the changes were mixed with cards from after the changes freely and universally at the...

In the game, Ramaz's deck is actually stacked, like the encounters. It's weird that they'd do that for the boss, but it's definitely the case. As far as Duels of the Planeswalkers decks go, Prophetic Ravings isn't even particularly slow. But it definitely is a bit odd. It's reminiscent of Keeper...

Oops, you're right. I can't count. Actually, I think I got Seedborn Muse mixed up with Dreamborn Muse, which does a different thing. Either way, both cost five mana. The Muse has a stronger untapping ability, but the Liege gives other creatures a passive boost too. I think I'd prefer Seedborn...

Let's see... Snap: Probably better than Unsummon in this deck. Depends what you're up against and how often you need to only leave one mana open instead of two. Snapcaster Mage: Speaking of snappy things, being able to reuse those instants would be nice. Unfortunately, as a rare that's a...

I missed this thread earlier. Bumping it. I do like the concept overall, but it seems like it packs less of a punch than your modifications to the Tezzeret deck. I might have a few ideas later if I can remember to return to this thread soon...

One-shot kills with Volrath's Shapeshifter aren't so definitive when there are four more people to kill after you take one down. But Full English Breakfast decks don't go all in on a combo kill anyway, but include deadly interactions as part of a general Survival of the Fittest toolbox. If you...

Hey there. I didn't even start lurking here until after you left, but I've been here pretty much the whole time since 2004 (technically I was lurking and tried to register in 2003, but due to some computer issue that I barely remember, I was initially unable to join the site from home). Good to...

Wow! Welcome back.

Unless I luck into some combo I don't know this deck has (here's hoping) or you all kill each other, I think I'm pretty much the first to go. My board position looks crappy and I'm the target of the swampwalking menace. I'll die in another month or two, then check back five years later to see...
