As it should be! :D

There's some concern I've seen expressed elsewhere, which I mostly agree with, that as Arena takes on greater importance, its logistical quirks and issues will negatively affect the rest of the game. This ban is the latest development and isn't inherently a problem. But the tone of the...

Had more going on than I anticipated. But we're back... Throg takes the statue. You continue through the corridor. A shadowy figure appears behind one of the walls. Hands reach through the wall and seize Jekaena. She struggles, but before anyone can intervene, Jekaena is pulled through the wall!

Oops, let's get back to this... Explore C... Quest: Plunder the Plunderers The next time combat damage is dealt to you, create two treasure tokens. Child of Night, done. Spiderman: 18 (Pirates) Hand: 6 Library: 49 Battlefield: (T) Island (T) Swamp (T) Crumbling Necropolis (~ ETB...

Usually when I come up with these threads, I pick a card that is among my favorites, was among my favorites, or one which had some special place in my own decks at some time. But there are a couple that strike me more for their presence across the table. Not many. And most of those are a weird...

Golgari Grave-Troll is in Ultimate Masters...

Skull Cultist#30649 I'm not on much and I have no immediate plans to actually build my own decks or invest seriously in the game. But if they make it better someday, then we'll see... Nice to see that TheOrgg is still alive (and possibly well). And yeah, I don't really want the game to be...

While I can't know exactly what the future holds, I think it's mostly the end of the line for Dream Halls. Not that the card is so permanently doomed as, say, Power Surge... But it's old, rare, and generally relegated. Dream Halls no longer makes the cut in Vintage and I suspect that its role...

Probably something about it being dangerous and exciting. Hey, I shamelessly stole this event from a Warhammer Quest dungeon events table! Find your own 101 incantations!

As Dorgath reads from the book, a stone statuette of Khorne, the Blood God, appears in the middle of the pentagram. Khorne Statue: May be carried by any Warrior. Whenever the bearer wishes, the statue's power can be used to modify a dice roll by +1 or -1. Each time the statue is used, roll a...

No, you'd be able to get past it without disturbing it if you're some sort of big party-pooper. :p

But seriously, the only non-wizard creature in that deck is Body Double, shapeshifter.

By that point, it would have felt awkward because you'd already waited too long! :p The stairs terminate, leading to a corridor made entirely of the same tranlucent crystal. The path widens enough for you to walk two-by-two. An Unexpected Event occurs! You spot a large pentagram chalked...

That's the idea!

Because I'm procrastinating, here's an alphabetized version of my proposed ban list from the article I wrote last year... All "ante" cards. All cards with the "conspiracy" type. Ancestral Recall Balance Bazaar of Baghdad Black Lotus Channel Chaos Orb Circle of Solace Dark Depths Demonic...

Reviving this thread yet again! For no particular reason, Lion's Eye Diamond is continuing to appeal to me as one of my favorite cards in the entire game. I find it fascinating because LED is a powerful mana accelerant that is essentially 100% locked in as a combo deck tool. Black Lotus could be...

Wow, it takes Throg six turns to re-light the lantern. He seems to be pretty bad at this! But nothing else happens anyway, so it doesn't really matter.

I was, like many people, wrong about Dream Halls being too overpowered for Vintage and Legacy. But the more general point about the usage of the card, well, I had that right. Dream Halls as a playset affords one the opportunity to try to build a dedicated combo deck based around and reliant upon...

The material of the walls and the steps shifts from dark, brown wood to a hard, translucent material. Pulses of light, too dim and too brief to fully illuminate your path, shoot through the strange substance. An Unexpected Event occurs! A sudden gust of wind blows out the lantern...
