UUD, Leonin Relic-Warder (exiling Ichorclaw Myr), Flayer Husk, equip Bonehoard to Relic-Warder #1, done. Spiderman: 16 Poison: 0 Hand: 1 Library: 46 Battlefield: (T,T,T,U) Forest x4 (U) Viridian Corrupter (2/2; Infect; When ~ ETB, destroy target artifact) (T) Insect creature token (1/1...

Ah, maybe that's a common part of the whole "individual players sitting on unopened boxes" thing. Just that it's convenient for some people and they hope to perhaps make some money off it. And then the vocal minority that are actually taking it more seriously are just what people like me see...

To steer this away from becoming yet another Rhinoseeker thread, I'll return to the subject of Nick's ProsBloom deck. I remembered two circumstances that I found hilarious, one of them using Storm Seeker and the other one, well, failing to... 1. We were playing a lot of combo decks. Some of...

Of course, when it comes to Storm Seeker, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the greatest deck of all time: Rhinoseeker. I mean, it is such an extreme case that it probably shouldn't even be considered seriously given the deck's history, but it's there and it's part of Magic's legacy, for better...

Nick's ProsBloom deck was far and away the most prevalent niche for Storm Seeker that I experienced. My next most vivid recollection of the card was in multiplayer, as part of some Mana Flare deck I used for a time. Again, Prosperity was the card that empowered Storm Seeker. Skyscribing would...

Yep, hadn't looked at that yet. Good catch. Also, stop helping Spidey! :p

No, there weren't any cards employing the actual Threshold mechanic in these sets. That was just a way of saying you have seven instants in your graveyard (and nothing else).

Oh yeah, now we're getting obscure. At least Lake of the Dead was kinda-sorta prominent at some point. But Storm Seeker? It's mostly just known for two things: 1. Being reprinted in Chronicles so everyone had it. And like most other cards in Chronicles, it didn't actually get used in decks. 2...

I'll have to wait until I get home to see what I topdeck, but this is looking bad. You already have Threshold and your graveyard is nothing but instants! Poor little cat people don't stand a chance against your swarm of venomous abominations...

Block one with the Germ, one with the Mystic, and one with the Relic-Warder.

UUD, Plains, let's see... Journey to Nowhere, exiling Stoneforge Mystic. Then I'll cast Leonin Relic-Warder and have it exile Journey to Nowhere. Stoneforge Mystic enters the battlefield, and I search my library, find Sickleslicer, and cast that. Done. Spiderman: 16 Poison: 0 Hand: 3...

Maybe I should just build Dredge. People love playing against Dredge...

Huh. Seems like you're reading a lot into that. I've double-posted all the time just because I thought, "Wait, I wasn't finished..." and then found it easier to just make a second post (the reply box is already right there) than to go back and edit the first one. The right way would probably be...

Unfortunately, like some other cool cards from back in the day, this thing is on the Reserved List. If it had been printed in a more recent set and more of the newer crowd of casual players had gotten their hands on it, we may have seen it used to power out Liliana of the Dark Realms (which...

While it's possible to build a Survival deck without a built-in instant kill combo, why would you do that? Some game-winning combinations to fetch with SotF include... -The aforementioned Full English Breakfast method. While there were several versions over the years, the most...

That's the part that I find a bit odd. And maybe it's just that I'm an incompetent, stupid scrub who rips open every booster box he buys right away. But I've seen these people who buy boxes and just store them, not because they want to have them for later, like for drafting or just collecting...

Well, it doesn't hurt to be sure. It was only a separate post because I thought after seeing that you seemed confused, I'd better be detailed. I don't really see a technical explanation of the rules as condescending and I don't see problems with having reminders sometimes. That goes for me...

Sorry, I'd been meaning to get to this earlier and I had decided to make changes to some stuff I'd prepared for the next arm of the adventure (you guys are too strong and aren't in nearly enough danger of dying). Through sheer laziness, I still haven't gotten to that. But that's no reason to...

I figured you guys must have been using something for that. Should have thought to ask what.

So I did need to expand (unlike post #53), but once I did (like in post #54) it was condescending and obnoxious for me to do so? Catch-22. :rolleyes: Nah. I've been poking fun at it for a while now, off an on. Maybe not as far back as "forever" but it amuses me. I don't have a problem with...
