Well, here we go. From the top... I didn't initially think I'd have anything to say about the first paragraph, but since I'll be nitpicking everything, I want to note that while this doesn't sound like a false or wrong statement, it is actually pretty weird. "We don't have hard and fast rules...

I appreciate Turgy's flip remarks, as I think dry wit is probably the appropriate response to this sort of thing. WotC are going to do what they will, and things will probably work out, as they have so far. So even if we think they're wrong, it's best to just have a little fun with it. Of...

Yikes. Well, it's probably obvious that I've got a lot to say about this, and that I don't agree with it. Part of the thesis of my Comboist Manifesto articles was that there's been too much derision and misunderstanding of combo decks and their role in a healthy game. I've seen a lot of...

You part ways with the wood elf escorts, leaving your mounts in their care. The horses accept this calmly enough, but Onola is an ass about it. You disappear into a thick forest, with Throg and Revaethan taking point, followed by Dorgath and Kelgar, then Tomas and Jekaena, with Ty and Carrow...

Divine Deflection at X=2, targeting Gloom Surgeon.

UUD... Cough up some dreams, Gatewatch!

Good idea, but... Revaethan has never been through here. While he might be more familiar with the forest in general than the other characters, he has no more experience than Ty with moving through this unique area. While wardancers do spend time traversing the forest, and even have their own...

Nope.

Nope.

I mean, against a sufficiently large board (of non-flyers, but that would be the norm), Moat could save you while Sandwurm Convergence, even if it were cheap enough, could not. I suppose that it would pair up nicely with Starfield of Nyx. Forgot about that card... I think you have a point and...

UUD, Island, done. Spiderman: 20 Hand: 3 Library: 44 Battlefield: (T,T,T,T,T,U) Swamp x6 (U) Gloom Surgeon Creature-Spirit (2/1; If combat dmg would be dealt to ~, prevent that dmg and exile that many cards from the top of my library) (U) Skinrender Creature-Zombie (3/3; When ~ ETB, put...

UUD... I guess you saved that Scute Mob for me. Muahahaha! Crumbling Necropolis, Baleful Strix, done. Nicol Bolas, God Emperor of Dune: 40 Hand: 6 Library: 47 Battlefield: (T) Swamp (U) Dragonskull Summit (~ etb tapped unless I control a swamp or a mountain. T: adds B or R to my mana...

Measuring that distance would require some assessment of your capacity for sneaking. Throg could ask Revaethan to make such an assessment, but the wardancer would presumably object to the concept.

Block with Vampire Nighthawk.

So is that the consensus? If so, what does scouting ahead entail? How far ahead of the rest of the party should he be moving?

Nope.

UUD... Swamp, Highland Lake, Vampire Nighthawk, done. Nicol Bolas, God Emperor of Dune: 40 Hand: 6 Library: 49 Battlefield: (T) Swamp (T) Dragonskull Summit (~ etb tapped unless I control a swamp or a mountain. T: adds B or R to my mana pool.) (T) Highland Lake (~ etb tapped. T: adds U...

UUD, Plains, done. Spiderman: 20 Hand: 3 Library: 47 Battlefield: (U,U,U,U,U) Swamp x5 (U) Gloom Surgeon Creature-Spirit (2/1; If combat dmg would be dealt to ~, prevent that dmg and exile that many cards from the top of my library) (U) Skinrender Creature-Zombie (3/3; When ~ ETB, put...

While green cards like Sylvan Library or Verduran Enchantress work well with Pursuit of Knowledge, my most distinct memories of the card involved using it in my old W/U/B control Highlander deck. I totally can't remember if I've mentioned it before, although it seems like I must have. This was...

Character sheets in the main thread should not be up-to-date. As usual, it would be prudent to check if your numbskull of a DM missed anything obvious.
