Done after that. Ouch. Well, coffin's not nailed down just yet but you need something big to turn it around... Spidey: 4 Hand: 3 Library: 45 Battlefield: (U,U) Mt x2 (U,T) Forest x2 (U) Frontier Bivouac (~ ETB tapped.; T: Add G, U or R to my mana pool) (U) Frontier Bivouac (~ ETB tapped.; T...

UUD, Spirit Bonds, Oreskos Swiftclaw, make a spirit token. Attack with Seeker of the Way. Blocks/responses? Spidey: 12 Hand: 3 Library: 45 Battlefield: (U,U) Mt x2 (U,T) Forest x2 (U) Frontier Bivouac (~ ETB tapped.; T: Add G, U or R to my mana pool) (U) Frontier Bivouac (~ ETB tapped.; T...

Nothing imperative is going on so you could use it at any point until next turn, when Kelgar is actually back up with the rest of the party and ready to depart. Right now Ty is lowering a rope and Dorgath is nibbling on stonebread, but everyone else is free to take some other action... You...

I don't know how many bazaars are in Baghdad today, but my inference was that the one depicted on the Magic card was supposed to be the original one from the early construction of the city. I'd guess that there are now probably several libraries in Alexandria, Egypt. Priorities! :p

Enough about the real Library of Alexandria. One of the most striking details about the card, a factor that is eminently important in the card's place, but virtually unexplored by players across all formats, is something that card does not have. What's missing? The "legendary" supertype. I've...

Yeah, it's tapped. No blocks. I go to 31 on my upkeep from Herald of Torment's ability. Will see what I draw this evening...

Done. Spidey: 12 Hand: 3 Library: 47 Battlefield: (U,U) Mt x2 (T) Forest (U) Frontier Bivouac (~ ETB tapped.; T: Add G, U or R to my mana pool) (T) Frontier Bivouac (~ ETB tapped.; T: Add G, U or R to my mana pool) (S) Elvish Mystic (1/1; T: Add G to my mana pool) Graveyard: Evolving...

UUD, Bestow Herald of Anguish Torment onto Seeker of the Way. Then if that resolves I'll try to live the dream and swing in for 8 flying lifelink damage... I do not know why I keep trying to type "Herald of Anguish." I know it's the more recent card and all, but I don't think I've ever even...

Hold on. Prowess trigger and Dictate of Heliod would make Seeker of the Way a 5/5, not a 4/4. So if nothing else changed, it would survive combat with Polis Crusher and I would gain 5 life. And also, Dictate of Heliod would remain on the battlefield, not go to my graveyard (Polis Crusher didn't...

The original Library of Alexandria, the real one that inspired the card, is famous for having burned down and for the supposed loss of much of the world's most valuable written records at the time. That's how the story goes, and as sad stories go, it's a good one. Some sources attributed the...

Isn't that exactly the same as if the player with The Mending of Dominaria had an empty library anyway? You'd still get a Reanimate out of Chapter I and Chapter II, assuming that you had a way to avoid losing from trying to draw from an empty library. Not sure what you guys do about Chapter III...

Block with Seeker of the Way, then flash in Dictate of Heliod.

Finger of Life: Targets a single Warrior. Roll 1D6. On a 4,5, or 6, restore that many Wounds.

Even though some of them have been fairly short, I've kinda enjoyed the "Memories" threads that were about cards I've mostly explored in recent years, rather than the ones I played with back when I was a kid. Stuff like Evolutionary Leap (a card that is only three years old) and Elephant Guide...

Yikes. :eek: UUD, Plains, done. Spidey: 20 Hand: 4 Library: 48 Battlefield: (T,T) Mt x2 (T) Forest (T) Frontier Bivouac (~ ETB tapped.; T: Add G, U or R to my mana pool) Polis Crusher (4/4; Trample, Protection from Enchantments; 4RG: Monstrosity 3 (If this creature isn't monstrous, put...

Next turn... -The Power Phase is 6 for this turn. -Throg's Arcane Knowledge lets him cast Finger of Life this turn if he wants to.

Kelgar falls from the boughs. Kelgar sustains 6 damage and will need a rope or levitation spell to get him back up with the rest of the party. Yes, I know it was Kelgar that this happened to before and yes, it really is a coincidence.

-Throg drinks one of his bottles of wine. He heals 2 Wounds and is at -1 to hit for the next 1 turn. -Throg resists the effects of his Alcoholism. -Throg bandages himself. He fully recovers. -Dorgath munches on Stonebread. He recovers 2 Wounds. -Dorgath's axe fully restores him. -Carrow eats 2...

Boring! Fine then, Seeker of the Way, done. Spidey: 20 Hand: 5 Library: 49 Battlefield: (T) Mt (T) Forest (T) Frontier Bivouac (~ ETB tapped.; T: Add G, U or R to my mana pool) Graveyard: Evolving Wilds, Heir of the Wilds, Heir of the Wilds Exile...

It rains gold again. Everyone gets some free gold, but suffers damage from being pelted by the sudden deluge of metal. -You all collect 80 gold and suffer 3 Wounds. -Tomas casts Lifebringer, but it fails. -Kelgar fails to bless anything. Ugh. some bad rolls, but at least you're not even...
