    Fake Card: Errant Minion, and you though EATER of DAYS was Huge!!

    It wouldn't become too good by having protection from blue. To me it seems kind of unfair though... Not that blue's treatment in this game so far has been fair toward the other colors...

    Fake Card: Fumigation, Colorless Instant!!

    I have read SOME articles by Mark Rosewater. But which ones specifically apply to colorless instants (or did you mean something more general when you brought his articles up)? Yes, of course I meant COLORLESS. How silly of me. Anyway, I would expect that not everyone would agree with me about...

    Fake Card: Nether Faerie

    The limits have been surpassed quite a bit though. Sure, they haven't made better versions of dual lands, but you can't just exclude Pearled Unicorn because it sucks. They have made much better white creatures than Pearled Unicorn... Now, as far as good cards go, the limits are not USUALLY...

    When I went to Wisconsin, I didn't know what these people meant by "brat." Now I LOVE them, especially with sauerkraut. They're not all that common around here though...

    Question about buying...

    Yeah, most cards in Portal that were good were reprints of older cards or were later reprinted. The most famous exception in Portal 1 is a card I already mentioned: Jungle Lion. I think I still have one or two of them. They don't look like much, but green has a hard time finding good 2/*...

    Single card strategy contest, Mark II

    This is a FUN one. Time Spiral is so broken. That's why I have three (traded one of my copies a long time ago, but I'm not worried about it because as far as tournaments go, the card is restricted to one copy in Vintage decks and banned everywhere else). Now, the immediate comparison is to...

    Goblin Deck or Goblin Mess?

    It would probably be a good idea to now start trying to outrace things like COP: Red. This is not to say that colorless damage sources are without value (Cursed Scroll saw a lot of use partially for that reason). But if you're getting that many goblins out, it sounds like a long game. Your...

    Yet another Type 1 deck - Triskelion and Tetravus.

    Why is this a "Type I deck"? Not to nitpick, since it looks like a cool casual deck, but it doesn't have any restricted cards at all and looks perfectly legal for Type 1.5 (Legacy), where it would still get creamed by the dominant decks, but at least it would not be up against deck that were as...

    Martha Stewart Whining Again!

    William Zanzinger killed poor Hattie Carroll With a cane that he twirled around his diamond ring finger At a Baltimore hotel society gath'rin'. And the cops were called in and his weapon took from him As they rode him in custody down to the station And booked William Zanzinger for first-degree...

    A New Kind of Game!!!

    Don't worry about upsetting me, if that's what you meant--I just needed to think of something to say for "X" and "xyster" was the only thing that came to mind...

    D&D: Palace of the Silver Princess

    "If this stuff really does petrify people, it might be useful. That would be rather odd though. You'd think one of them would get the hint that something was awry after his friends started turning to stone. Those statues all seemed quite calm..." *grabs some of the food for himself, just in case*

    Fake Card: Fumigation, Colorless Instant!!

    I haven't read the articles you're referring to, so I can't say whether I agree with Rosewater or not. It's narrow-minded to avoid changing something simply because it's the way things have always been done. The same could be applied to making changes for the sake of making changes... Which is...

    Fake Card: Nether Faerie

    I agree with Spiderman, as long as "some" means a lot. I mean, some cards are far more powerful than newer versions of them, but it's not like Alpha is chock full of powerful cards. Dark Ritual, Lightning Bolt, Ancestral Recall, Timetwister, Wheel of Fortune, the dual lands, the moxes, Black...

    Question about buying...

    Cloud Pirates aren't bad either. There are also Man-o'-War, Mercenary Knight (like Hidden Horror only better), Cruel Bargain (Infernal Contract), Gift of Estates (sort of like Tithe), Personal Tutor (a sorcery version of Mystical Tutor), Pillaging Horde (Balduvian Horde), Natural Order...

    Goblin Deck or Goblin Mess?

    Goblin Replica? It's overcosted for its power and its ability isn't all that great (red has much better artifact hate, if that's what you're looking for). Even Seal of Fire would probably be better than Pyrite Spellbomb. I would try not to use either and go for stronger spells like Lightning...
