Yes. Technically it's 1 again. Also, an Unexpected Event occurs.

As the door opens, you see that this room is filled with goblins, armed and ready for a fight. Their shamans ready magic to use against you and the other goblins rally to protect the shamans.

Legacy is still the format that I have the best grasp on, but at this point, there's really not much to say. Anyone with half a brain who looks at the format knows that some of the cards on the list are substantially less dangerous than some of the cards that have been powerhouses for the past...

I forget whether the card pool in the game let me even have access to a straight port of Brian Weissman's "The Deck" (also known sometimes as Keeper). I think some cards were missing. But this was my take on the same sort of spiritual idea as those old decks. Play busted cards, stay alive, don't...

The game had Mishra's Workshop in it. So of course I had to build a Shops deck. Call it MUD, Monobrown, Workshop Aggro, Artifact Goodstuff, or whatever. The closest resemblance I recognized was to "Stacker" decks from the early 00's in Type 1, although it's different in some important respects...

Like I mentioned in the Butter Knives thread, I made about ten different decks in the old computer game. Most of them were derivative of stuff I'd seen in the past. I don't think I actually looked at a real Turbostasis list before making this. I just vaguely remember the concept and threw in...

Oh, forgot this one was today. Thanks, Spidey. Well, it's not surprising so I can't very well be disappointed again. They bothered to mention that they are apparently looking at Vintage, which is at least a little bit interesting.

I was thinking of a song myself, but mine was Bonnie Tyler's "Holding Out for a Hero" with the line "And it's gotta be soon and he's gotta be larger than life." Spidey's song features the phrase more prominently, I suppose. But I contend that my song choice is better.

By the way, did you see the "Banned from Constructed play" post I made? It was inspired by a quote from you, which I just happened to see while looking for one of my own posts when I was writing stuff in this thread. And now here you are! Coincidence?

Huh, I always thought of Zoo as more competing with Survival decks than joining with them, but both concepts were flexible enough for there to be overlap. Don't think I ever actually saw the card in Null Rod Zoo firsthand, but I've seen stranger things. Huh, I guess I did have a similar kind...

TomB's post in the Dark Ritual thread reminded me that I have some old decklists from in the Magic the Gathering computer game that Microprose made in 1996, and I thought it might be interesting to revisit my decklists. I defeated Arzakon, the final boss in Shandalar, way back in 2005, then...

I was surprised that Explosive Impact wasn't being picked and I thought it might come all the way back around to me, but then Turgy shattered my dreams. Man, the rest of these red cards really suck... I'll take Spinning Darkness and Ondu Champion. Uh, Mooseman is next? Black Skitterskin...

Well, if you get (dubious) blame for the problem, I suppose you also have to get credit for fixing it! :)

Yes, but I try to keep them from clashing too badly if something else is going on. The Unexpected Event table for this dungeon is one I made myself, but I did borrow some content from the original books. The Nurgle's Rot encounter seemed thematically appropriate, but you are correct in your...

But seriously, has that been the problem this whole time? With how many people we've had legitimately show up and post a few things before vanishing over the years since I first found this site in 2003 (couldn't get an account here initially because of some technical issue I had myself, the...

That'll really keep the spammers out!

You know, I pulled the "Nurgle's Rot Encounter" from one of the original books and I think the Pit Fighter character hadn't been created yet when they wrote that part about healing potions. But there were already some treasure cards that offered different kinds of healing potions. Some only heal...

The Shandalar portion of the game, with the world map and all that, is buggy even on my old Windows 2000 machine, albeit still playable. But the mode that lets you just play Magic against an AI works even on my laptop. It didn't work on my new desktop, but for all I know, it's a simple fix in...

UUD, Forest, Overgrown Battlement, done. Spiderman: 20 Poison: 0 Hand: 5 Library: 51 Battlefield: (T,T) Plains x2 (U) Flayer Husk (Living Weapon; Equipped creature gets +1/+1; Equip 2) (T) Germ creature token (1/1 from Flayer Husk) *Equipped w/Flayer Husk* (S) Stoneforge Mystic (1/2...

I don't think Terentius has been around for a while, but if this deck is still a thing... Felidar Guardian has been all the rage lately, because apparently WotC failed to realize that blinking planeswalkers could be good. Use Narset to give your own spells Rebound a couple of times, then once...
