UUD, Mountain, attack with Rampager, blocks/responses?

I fell in love with Kaervek's Torch for the potential to set up big player-targeting burns that were resistant to countermagic. It wasn't foolproof: opponents could still use Counterspell on it if they had four mana open, or Force of Will if they had two mana open. But it made the job of playing...

Reserved List card selection at the time was some process along the lines of "When a new core set comes out, any rares from the older expansion sets that aren't getting reprinted and haven't already been reprinted go on the list by default." That's why Mirage has a whole bunch of bad rares that...

Sadly, Energy Bolt is on the Reserved List. I vaguely remember using it, once upon a time. But it couldn't have been very much and it must have been very early on. Ultimately, I don't think it's a practical card for most decks: if you're playing a red deck and have access to a Blaze-like spell...

In case anyone was wondering, I've leveled Tomas up. I don't know which spells Rokapoke would pick to learn, but that can't be helped right now.

Onola was last seen in the area of the Grove of Eternity when Throg took off through the Pine Crags. She will be reunited with him later—if he survives the adventure... :p

UUD, Forest, Ghor-Clan Rampager, done. Spidey: 20 Hand: 5 Library: 51 Battlefield: (T,T) Plains x2 Intangible Virtue (Creature tokens I control get +1/+1 and have vigilance) (T) Doomed Traveler (1/1; When ~ dies, create a 1/1 white Spirit creature token w/flying) Graveyard: Exile...

"I can clear a path for you, but it's going to take time. I suggest that you use that time to prepare yourselves for the trials ahead. Our other allies should be trickling in. They should have most of what you'll need for training and equipping yourselves. There are even a few priests of...

"I'm here because the dwarf kings are stubborn and it took everything I had had to unite them and bring them around to this cause. For too long, the nations of the Old World have been engaged in petty squabbles. Those fools would have let the elves fall, and then perhaps the humans' Empire, and...

No response.

UUD, Mountain, Elvish Mystic, done. Spidey: 20 Hand: 6 Library: 52 Battlefield: (T) Plains (S) Doomed Traveler (1/1; When ~ dies, create a 1/1 white Spirit creature token w/flying) Graveyard: Exile: ================================================================================...

Dorgath's request gets passed along. Surprisingly, within a few minutes, the party is ushered into a central area where dwarves are setting up tents. Dwarven officers inform Runelord Yaggrin of your arrival. Some, particularly Dorgath, may be taken aback. Runelords are generally imposing...

Exile was another card I got a lot of mileage out of! Perhaps not enough that I'd think to do a Memories thread for it, but it was a fine card nevertheless. Speaking of Disintegrate, and this is a bit of a tangent but I said Kaervek's Torch was just a stand-in for red X spells anyway... The...

No mulligan here. Forest, Elvish Mystic, done. Spidey: 20 Hand: ? Library: ?? Battlefield: Graveyard: Exile: ================================================================================ Oversoul: 20 Hand: 5 Library: 53 Battlefield: (T) Forest (S) Elvish Mystic (1/1; T: adds G to my...

This could easily have been Magic Memories: Fireball. Maybe it should have been Magic Memories: Fireball. Arguably, Fireball is the better card. Although really, there are several options with their own unique features... Historically, some of those weren't around yet for many of the decks...

Bah, it seems that I forgot to dig this deck box out and sleeve it. I know I have it. I just got distracted. I'll find it tonight. Anyway, I flipped tails...

High and Dry, Pirates' Market Site At the beginning of your end step, you may discard a card. If you do, draw a card. (So this one's permanent, but other players can steal it by having their creatures damage Mooseman in combat).

He's around somewhere, but it's a big operation. Is Dorgath formally requesting that a message get passed along to him?

Psarketos has made a couple of good points in this thread, which I didn't really respond to directly, but they're still here. That's the nice thing about message boards. I wasn't sure how much this thread was going to be discussion and how much it was just going to be me being longwinded. I've...

I vaguely recall other attempts at this sort of "now no one gets to do anything" goal. What's fascinating is that it has become possible to reach a state in which one is achieving this with a simultaneous "Look Ma, no cards!" engine. Per the rules, token are not cards, and with stuff like...
