It's cute that you left your other guys untapped. My River Sneak is going to go right past them. :p

I don't think that it's intuitively obvious, but Regrowth's black counterpart turns out, comparatively, to be a bit of a dud. Is that too harsh? I mean, I never thought of it as a bad card. It's fine, I guess. It's been reprinted a million times and I don't see complaints about how bad it is. I...

Gave Melkor his walls back. Melkor: 11 Command Zone: Cannons to Port (The next time you deal combat damage to the player on your left, draw a card.) Walls of Adanto (Site: Creatures can't attack you. An opponent may pay 1 to ignore this effect until end of turn.) Hand: 3 Library: 49...

That sparked something familiar in my memory and I just double-checked. Yep. "Only one site can be conquered per combat." I'd forgotten that line. I'll post a fixed board...

Came across archived discussion on TMD for ReapLace and they even acknowledged that Lion's Eye Diamond could function in the combo. Not only was LED still unrestricted at that point, but it was essentially unplayed. I mentioned in the LED thread that it could be activated with Regrowth on the...

I think Dark Ritual was an excellent choice for a card to give Rebecca Guay to illustrate. In retrospect, I wonder why they didn't do it sooner. It's also a bit of a shame that instead of reusing that artwork for reprints (Battle Royale, Beatdown, Duel Decks, Planechase, From the Vault), they...

You have a chance of it happening until you completely clear your debt. In some scenarios the agents take items from you and subtract their gold value from your debt. This time you got the "half your gold" scenario.

You guys have no idea how tempted I've been over the past 11 months to make other posts in this thread. I kinda moved away from it when I was still getting a handle on this whole "Magic Memories" concept and purposely didn't add new posts to this one. I was worried I'd go overboard with it. At...

Character sheets in the main thread have been updated for everyone except Throg and Carrow. Once any purchases or other settlement decisions are made for them, I'll update those two as well. Revaethan's sheet is also updated there, even though he's a NPC. Tomas is tentatively a NPC at this time...

Wow. Uh, I forgot where we were with this. Let's see... OK. I guess I block with Bone Picker.

If that one didn't work, let me know and I'll head over to that testing message board and spam it with images in different formats...

UUD, Forest, Explore the middle ocean tile on the far right... Plunder the Plunderers Quest The next time combat damage is dealt to you, create two Treasure tokens. Rancor on River Sneak. Attack Melkor, paying 1 to Walls of Adanto. Gimme dem sites. Done. I'll discard a Forest to draw a card...

Cannons to Port Quest The next time you deal combat damage to the player on your left, draw a card. No idea what went wrong with the image. I can see it here at home, but I've seen it now from multiple computers that aren't even all in the same city. But I'll see if I can get this next one...

Fateseal in principle seems fine. That fateseal sliver looked like it could be interesting.

Nostalgic Dreams and Wildest Dreams are notable as being green upgrades of Recall, a formerly restricted card. Goes to show how the game has changed over the years. I have never played with or against Wildest Dreams, so I have little to say about it. Nostalgic Dreams I remember being a fine...

Regrowth is the original and the most efficient, but it has spawned imitators... I don't care so much for most of them. Some Regrowth-wannabes, however, do have neat applications. Foremost among them is a card we already talked about a bit here: Eternal Witness.

Bloodbraid Elf was originally banned due to its role in Jund decks, but it's pretty good in almost any red/green archetype. Probably relevant: at the time, Ancestral Vision had been banned for all of Modern's history. Until just recently, the two cards never existed together in the format. I'm...

I'll save the Eternal rant for another occasion. Probably. The Modern changes, mostly the Jace unban, have been polarizing. We don't really have Modern tournament barnacle grinders around here, but elsewhere, I've seen the following opinions... Jace is broken and will dominate the format. The...

I mentioned this concept in the Wheel of Fortune thread too, but Regrowth was another example, although unlike Wheel Regrowth is no longer restricted. It was, though. For 19 years. And as a casual player, that fact essentially didn't matter and didn't come up. Certain cards I'd use got...
