    The Year in Vintage: 2008

    While I don't know the etymology of this peculiar usage of "broken" we use to describe cards, it seems be used to mean "overpowered." Wiktionary has a "sports and gaming" definition for broken that reads... And being overpowered is the main reason cards are restricted. Some cards in Vintage...

    my new *edited* Sliver Deck

    While your deck is certainly memorable, I don't think it's really a model for other sliver decks to follow. Either you're doing the 60-card deck thing or you're building a crazy Mythosx deck with every sliver ever printed. I just checked and while the card count for your whole deck wasn't...

    That Nicol Bolas planeswalker would tear through an opponent quickly, but it's way too expensive to be viable.

    Hall of Shame Nominations: Visions

    Yeah, we've been doing it as a worst of each set so far. None of the above make it seem like every card in the set was good. I don't think any set printed has been like that. Certainly not Visions.

    Hall of Shame Voting: Visions

    I voted for Time and Tide. Suleiman's Legacy, like several nominees and winners from past sets, hoses bad cards, but does it really well. Being able to combine it with cards that change creature types makes me wary though. Like Thought Lash, it's a lousy card that has too much potential for me...

    The Year in Vintage: 2008

    I called Time Vault broken. Time Vault is not a deck. WotC rightly restricted Time Vault before the latest erratum because they knew it would be broken too. It should have been obvious. No, I don't think I backed off anything. I don't recall anyone actually having these fears.

    Well, I mean, that's accurate. He put it as: "Although Storm combo, currently represented by TPS and Ad Nauseam, might actually be the best deck in Vintage at the moment, decks like this are simply irresistible to Vintage pilots. Mana Drains are currently far and away the most populous engine in...

    I didn't see anything I particularly liked except three of those... Sigil of the Empty Throne: Remember Auratog/Rancor or Claws of Gix/Despondency? While this is expensive, it makes those old tricks even more awesome. Martial Coup: Nifty. A lot of white control decks used to sweep the board...

    The Year in Vintage: 2008

    Scroll to the "November" section. I think it gets quite a mention. Are you saying that because the example decklist was only "piloted to a Finals split..." or something? I think that was just because it was a decklist he liked and that exemplified the archetype. It has won. Edit: I'm sure I...
