So what's the ruling on legendary permanents with mana abilities? Can they use them before dying this time?

This guy back at my high school would do that. He used Distorting Lense, Sleeper Agent, and creature enchantments that hurt the opponent during upkeep. It won a lot against most decks and looked like great fun...

Oh! I thought it was the real Peacekeeper...

The Bargain thing is necessary because the card is such a powerful engine of combo brokenness. That's why I'll be using it in Type I (and after TPS becomes more popular, I'm sure a lot of people will). The Tutor thing is rather understandable, since it finds ANY card cheaply... But the Necro...

Heh, Moxmonkey becomes Chalicemonkey...

Eh, there will certainly be other good decks, but I hope that rather than banning Survival, they'll unban other cards that can compete with it, like Oath, Replenish, and Land Tax. After all, those cards aren't particularly expensive (Oath might be like $10 or something, but that's the most...

It made a showing. Three decks almost made top 8. That's pretty good. Better than Keeper in that particular tournament--much better. And no one's denying the power of that deck...

Yeah, I understand that sentiment very much. It's why Type I is my favorite format. I really like the new one too though, since there us no chance whatsoever of running up against expensive brokenness like Mana Drain and Black Lotus (which I have faced in casual play, albeit rarely). Also, some...

For a couple years now, one term that I'm hearing thrown around a lot is "the war on terror." That seems to me to be a silly term... As far as I know, wars are typically fought between two nation and sometimes more... Well, I checked the CIA world fact book, and I can't seem to find a nation...

Good book. If you only read one dystopia novel (and why would you do that?) it's the one I would go with. Not sure what how it pertains to the topic at hand, unless you're referring the the Patriot Act and all that... Dude with the capitilized name: Um, you need to chill. Or you could at least...

Chemically, it's hydrogen and helium in plasma form, or so I believe. Is this what you mean? Edit: If that is what you mean, I found this thing on some search engine: http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/tables/suncomp.html

If I were to lower my standard of "good" to the level of Dissipate, then perhaps I might be mistaken. Even then it seems unlikely, since this thing has a triple blue requirement, using the Memory Lapse option of the card is almost entirely useless (but not quite) and the other option is worse...

No, blue is more like fascism...

I think Legions is a candidate for worst set ever both in overall power-level and in level of interest. At least Homelands and Planeshift had flavor, and they've actually got some decent cards too... Legions has what? Caller of the Claw and Akroma? Neither of those are actually good and they're...

Well, the first part of your post seems to disagree with the idea of infinite combos on the basis of flavor. I don't feel that way myself, but I know that many people do have a problem with infinite combos for that reason... But then you attack combo players in general. Well, I'm a combo player...

We HATE Mindslaver...

Yeah, but about 100% of the good Type I decks have an answer to Chalice for zero, because it's too dangerous not to. No deck uses only Moxes and Lotus as mana producers because all decks need more than six mana sources in order to function. That said, Chalice is annoying to fight around and...

I AM THE OUTSIDE! :p

It's actually a special form of asbestos fibers so that the superheros aren't burned...
