I found this set disappointing. I like the concept, but the individual cards themselves are usually underpowered or uninteresting. There are some cool ones though. I have a few favorites based on what I might find practical (the black Spirit Link or the green Curiosity), but the card that seems...

Untap, upkeep, Forest, attack with Emerald Dragonfly, responses/blockers?

Explore.

Yeah, there is the time zone thing, but I'm not usually on during the evening because I leave for work at around 4:30 and don't often come back until pretty late at night. I'm usually online after getting back from school (sometime in the afternoon) or in the morning before leaving for school...

Rabbits hide, hares run (there are some other differences). The word is "lunchbox." Only a degenerate malcontent would carry his lunch in a pail. In fact, I'm not even sure what a pail is. Not sure about the other two...

Vampire? Anyway, I lost power at my house since this game went on hiatus, but I'm pretty sure I had my exact hand saved on Notepad and so I should be able to set up another Apprentice session when my turn comes around--I don't really remember how this game was going or what my deck is...

I nominate EricBess.

Not really. Well, the number of people nominating might be something to look at, but specifically who has been nominating which cards isn't what I'm talking about--I meant the group as a whole. I'm not sure how much the number of participants would factor into this because if the drop in...

Your graveyard is missing the Armor Thrull.

No blocks, no responses.

Forest, Emerald Dragonfly, done. Spidey: 20 Hand: 14 In Play: (T) Forest (S) Aisling Leprechaun (1/1, Whenever ~ blocks or becomes blocked by a creature, that creature becomes green permanently) Graveyard: RFG: Oversoul: 20 Hand: 13 In Play: (T) Swamp (T) Forest (U) Crimson Kobolds (0/1)...

^ = Secretly LOOOVES the fat chicks. < = Needs to stop falling asleep. v = I choose you, Articuno!

I agree that usually the winners would be expected to be rares. I think I could have predicted that this would generally be the case (more than half of the winners being rares). In fact, I'd probably have the same thing if I were generating the list entirely on my own (as would most of us, I'd...

Tails! Swamp, Crimson Kobolds, done. Spidey: 20 Hand: 15 In Play: Graveyard: RFG: Oversoul: 20 Hand: 14 In Play: (U) Swamp (S) Crimson Kobolds (0/1) Graveyard: RFG:

^ = Is kind of weird about the Seahawks. < = Shouldn't he be the Seahawks fan, living in Seattle and all? v = Hates the rooster.

Dark Depths didn't win. I'm talking about the cards that tend to win. The nominations seem more diverse. Since I'm talking about my perception of the winners, I'd better also take a look at the numbers. Since Legions (a rather arbitrary cutoff, but the earlier sets seemed pretty diverse in...

But in what percentage of decks? I would guess that at least 95% of the time, Dark Ritual is going to be better and if I'm only running one of the two, it's going to be Dark Ritual. The Disk is a bit different. The only card I can think of comparable to Dark Ritual would be Cabal Ritual. But...

Surely it's not so mysterious that it merits more than three question marks... :p

I don't know. I probably would have gone with Dark Depths myself had I been on the committee, but it does seem like we're getting a lot of flashy rares as winners. The nominees themselves are somewhat diverse, but it seems like the cards that actually win are always cast from the same mold...

That's just silly. While I can't speak for Venton, I don't think he meant "must-have" as "must be in every deck." I interpreted it to mean "staples." I highly doubt Venton actually uses Feldon's Cane in every deck he builds. And there are a handful of cards that really have appeared in nearly...
