Yukora is pretty nice (not as good as the ancient Djinn, but only black's finest creatures can match him for efficiency). The non-Ogre part seems entirely pointless though. It's one mana more expensive than Phyrexian Negator and doesn't trample, but its drawback only matters if you control other...

In Korean or English?

I think they finally legalized them because people were asking them to. That might sound like common sense, but I don't believe that those cards will impact the format. Some of them are decent but none of them that were not already reprinted look like Vintage bombs. Legacy is slower and might be...

A better artifact than Black Lotus would be a scary thing...

You seem to be using a lot of creature kill. I know you said aggro and aggro-control, but do you really hate creatures that much? Also, I am not sure about Bane of the Living (I've never played with or against it, but it just doesn't look very good)... You are using a single Demonic Tutor...

If you use Endless Wurm, be sure to Rancor it whenever possible. Then it reads a lot like... Endless Wurm (with Rancor) 3GG Creature -- Wurm or something else Oversoul is too lazy to look up Trample During your main phase pay G. 11/9 That is a considerably good deal.

I put together such a deck for fun on Apprentice. I didn't throw in any P9 or the like. I think I included too many lands (I had all of the good artifact mana I could come up with, not to mention Elvish Spirit Guide, Dark Ritual, Blood Pet, and Seething Song) although that worked out perfectly...

I am pretty sure Juzam Djinn is on the reserved list. I would love to see it reprinted (I would like to see any good cards become more available, and of course WotC could make money off that, but it seems that it's not going to happen). What do you mean about Necro decks though? As far as...

But is your spelling better?

Atrocity

Typing one-handed is great fun (It takes a bit longer though).

Actual video games--can't say I do. What sort of actual video games?

Stronghold wasn't weak, it just didn't have as many good cards as Tempest or Exodus. Nemesis was mostly better than Masques or Prophecy, so I'm not sure why you brought that one up. The others I can't agree more on.

Okay, casually, a lot of players will be playing with legends since there are a lot of them in CoK and BoK. But without that to influence things, this dude would be much better. Once Kamigawa rotates out of Standard (which won't be for a while) I expect to see the occasional player taking...

Some evil person with Wheel of Fortune and Windfall and Lion's Eye Diamond and Yawgmoth's Will and Dark Ritual and Lotus Petal and... Wow, you could build some nasty combo deck in this format...

I think (actually, I would be surprised if it didn't) it still applied. But I never really saw anyone use the card enough to wonder about it...

I don't play Standard, so what happens if they ban all but one of the artifact lands? I know that might look awkward, but wouldn't it be sufficient to weaken the decks that are based around them? Edit: changed "restrict" to "ban"

I really am... ...the very model of a modern major-general?

Wow, if I read the clock on Everything2 correctly, a guy posted a writeup about the card, Counterspell a couple of hours before I finished my article. What an odd coincidence... Anyway, the Counterspell node can be found here.

"That is an excellent idea, Patrick. All right, who wants to assist me in moving them into the other room?"
