Most of the time when Nether Void was used in Magic's history, it followed the general model of "Blow up their lands with Sinkhole and Icequake and stuff so that they can't get enough mana to cast their spells, while beating them to death with something." It's simple and, compared to later...

While I'm baffled that coating anything with venom would somehow make it survive damage, that does check out... Spiderman: 16 (Pirates) Quest: Sails Unfurled (The next creature that ETB under my control ETB with an additional +1/+1 ctr on it and it gains haste ueot) Hand: 4 Library: 48...

As cool as monoblack control is in Legacy, it hasn't been a top contender in tournaments and it has struggled to adapt as the environment has become increasingly fast, efficient, and consistent. I sort of suspect that Nether Void as a tournament card has hit a dead-end. It's not viable in...

This set seems kinda bonkers. I mean, it's too early to tell for sure, but there's some potent-looking stuff here. Usually I don't appreciate new sets very much until I've played with them a little and I have to bear that in mind when evaluating spoilers and such. Either this is the first...

Good question. It's been a while now since I read the rules on those. I'll see if I can find anything... There it is!

So, despite missing a couple of key weeks, I managed to just barely sneak into the Top 8 on achievement points in my local Commander League. I'm tentatively planning to dedicate more of my active deckbuilding efforts to that league, so I'll be tailoring new decks or revisions to existing decks...

Explore Q... Event: Trespass at Spitfire Bastion Deal 3 damage to target creature or player. I'll hit Storm Fleet Aerialist for 3. Queen's Bay Soldier, done. Spiderman: 16 (Pirates) Quest: Sails Unfurled (The next creature that ETB under my control ETB with an additional +1/+1 ctr on it...

I think I've sketched out the role of Nether Void in current Legacy Pox decks. Along the way, I described how the archetype known as "Pox" evolved away from using the namesake card entirely. And I contrasted the more traditional Pox archetype, the one that actually used a full playset of Pox...

Played this and was generally satisfied. It's fun and I got to make sure that my opponents had plenty of tokens. The Commander League implemented a new contingency for infinite combos that if a player uses one to win, that player collects the relevant points for winning, but the game keeps going...

While Nether Void is a bomb in Legacy, it's held back by being a world enchantment. Actually, that feature holds it back in multiple ways... You can't put multiple copies of Nether Void on the battlefield. So you can add that 3-mana check to everyone's spells, but there's no way to double up on...

Haven't even finished sleeving this thing up and I've made one minor change to the list I initially posted... +1 Academy Rector -1 Starfield of Nyx Rector comes down a turn earlier and is better defensively before I can set up Enduring Ideal, which should be the main goal. Starfield of Nyx...

In Legacy, Pox decks evolved from being built around the namesake card to using it as a secondary tool and lategame bomb against control decks, with Smallpox taking on the role that "Big Pox" had previously filled. Then Liliana of the Veil superceded Pox as a devastating 3-drop. Liliana is more...

Legacy Pox decks have been on a gradual decline since 2013 or 2014 and were never hugely successful anyway, although they did see some success. These days, they almost always run 0 copies of the actual card Pox. The strategy has shifted from putting the opponent on the wrong end of rounding up...

This is a brand new decklist I haven't tested at all, but I'm aiming to try it on Sunday... Commander: 1x Abundance 1x Academy Rector 1x Akroan Horse 1x Arbiter of Knollridge 1x Azorius Signet 1x Bant Panorama 1x Bountiful Promenade 1x Brainstorm 1x Breeding Pool 1x Collective Voyage 1x...

Well then, let's get started. The starting plane is Raven's Run. UUD, roll the planar die (nothing happens), Leechridden Swamp, done. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Command Zone: ----------------------------------------------------------------------...

It resolves. Gonna dig up a Plains from the Path. Regent hits Melkor for 6?

Well, I thought something seemed off on Tuesday morning, but I couldn't figure it out at the time. My opening hand isn't nearly dangerous enough. It would seem that on Monday night I sleeved up the Armed deck by mistake! :eek: The Dangerous deck is sitting in the same box on my desk. You want...
