When the Necropede dies, I'll use its death trigger on Goblin Wardriver (the first one, as you hadn't played the second one yet). That change anything?

Dorgath doesn't know if it's magical writings or not. His upbringing in Zhufbar did not prepare him for deciphering elven script.

Of course they're understandable. That's not the point! This is the CPA, so the point is always messing with Spiderman. I'll block the Goblin Wardriver with the Necropede.

I don't think I've played with or against the card since my friend's old deck was taken apart, but it definitely made an impression (I wish that we'd saved the decklist). Like I said, it's had me putting snow-covered lands into casual decks ever since. I realize that the game has changed a lot...

Dorgath checks for secret doors in the secret room, but there don't seem to be any. Searching turns up some items... -1 Cloak of Loren -15 Arrows of Loren -A journal

German. In what language is "Mt" a word? :p Well, I'm at work of course, but thanks to Preordain I know what my topdeck will be, so.. UUD, Island, Necropede, done. Spiderman: 20 Poison: 0 Hand: 3 Library: 52 Battlefield: (T,T) Montagne x2 (T) Goblin creature token (1/1) (T) Goblin...

Only three creatures on the first turn in a deck based around Battle Cry? Slacker. Draw, Island, Preordain, leave the cards where they were before drawing one, done. Spiderman: 20 Poison: 0 Hand: 4 Library: 53 Battlefield: (T) Berg (S) Goblin creature token (1/1) (S) Goblin creature...

The most mainstream deck that might conceivably run all three is Pox, and yeah, no one really considers it a top Legacy deck these days. Probably also the most mainstream deck to use Dark Ritual at all for any purpose besides trying to go with a fast combo kill. Of course, if you have a bad...

I'll assume you're taking it with you, but not applying it yet until there's a fight, so the temporary to-hit bonus isn't wasted... The feminine voice magically echoing through the dungeon returns, this time murmuring too softly to make out any words at first... "...got to evacuate. They're...

Heads it is.

On one occasion, a Scalpelexis trigger ate twenty cards off the top of my library, and that was followed up by a second Scalpelexis trigger. I was frustrated, but I had no flying blockers and my creature removal had been stripped from my hand before the little brain-eaters had hit the board. The...

I used to play a lot of blue/black control, and that will emerge as a common theme in these vignettes. I played other colors too, but I was enamored of the blue/black combination and early on happened to get some pretty good cards for casual decks in those colors. But in this case, it wasn't me...

Oops, you posted your reply just before my previous one and I hadn't seen yours yet. Anyway, I'll sleeve up the other deck when I get home. Who goes first, anyway? On the one hand, I won the first game so you should have priority, on the other hand, letting this deck go first again seems like it...

Actually it just dawned on me that since I'm not getting Kicker from Bushwhacker this time (unless I were to topdeck another one) that the majority of my damage would be coming from Wardriver, so technically if you had an instant that could kill/bounce/stop Wardriver, I'd only be swinging for 3...

Yeah. This deck is fast (although it would appear to be all speed with little left over as a contingency). I'd have to wait until I get home to see my topdeck, but that's a formality at this point, as nothing in your deck would save you at this point with only one mana up. I Lightning Bolt your...

Done. Oversoul: 20 Poison: 0 Hand: 2 Library: 52 Battlefield: (U,T,T) Mountain x3 (T) Goblin Guide (2/2; Haste, whenever this attacks, defending player reveal the top card of his/her library and if it's a land, puts it into his/her hand.) (T) Ornithopter (0/2; Flying.) (T) Ornithopter...

UUD, Mountain, Goblin Bushwhacker with Kicker. My team gets +1/+0 and haste until end of turn. Swing with everything. That's... 4/2 Goblin Guide 2/2 Ornithopter 2/2 Ornithopter 3/2 Goblin Wardriver 3/1 Goblin Bushwhacker

My enthusiasm for combo decks is probably pretty well-established around here by now. And Dark Ritual has become primarily a combo card. In combo decks, it can be used to put out key pieces faster, for an earlier attempted kill. It also adds to the storm count and can, in some engines, provide...

An understandable stance for you to take, but also a highly dubious one. :p

During some downtime at work, I slogged through some online training. And while I'll still do that, the queue is prodigious and sometimes I want to do something that doesn't make me want to gouge my eyes out. Part of that has been the CPA. Indeed, I am at work right now. Call me Spiderman...
