    Fake Card: Fetid Bloom, Universal mana acceleration... for a price

    Candelabra of Tawnos is so cool. If I had a couple of those, I'd definitely build a Power Surge deck, but last time I saw one for sale it was like $30 and that was a while ago...

    Fake Card: Tidal Strike, arcane blue creature damage!!

    You can call it "crossing the color pie" or "not crossing the color pie" as you like. The important thing is that cards like these are doing things in a way appropriate for their own color. White creature kill (everyone knows that StP removes creatures from the game--that doesn't mean it's not...

    Anyone seen the "Power ninth edition" poster that's been circulating around?

    The reason I've always heard is "collectors" and that seems to be a horrible reason. It would make them look stupid if they went back on the reserved list. But if they wanted to not look stupid, why get involved in Magic in the first place? :p

    Single Card Deckbuilding Contest Mark VII

    Elder Dragon Legends are normally not very good. But with the help of some broken enchantments, that can change. Nicol Bolas has a particularly good ability. Of course, the enchantments I have in mind are Survival of the Fittest and Sneak Attack.

    Smart Clock!

    I never have that problem and I find it funny that enough people did for someone to come up with this idea in the first place...

    Fake Card: Shivan Serpent; Too cheesy??

    Only needing to swing five times for an automatic kill is not "irrelevent."

    Social Security, or is it?

    I think that what Darthferret is pointing out is that (in general, not just with this) people expend a lot of effort trying to find a scapegoat, when if all of those people worked on solving the problem instead, things could be much better. Of course, getting even one person to really stop...

    Fake Card: Tidal Strike, arcane blue creature damage!!

    Note that cards crossing the "color pie" or whatever do more than just copy the effect of an existing spell and give it an increased mana cost (the interesting ones do, of course there are also the Unyaro Bee Stings and the like). Swords to Plowshares doesn't just kill a nonwhite creature or...

    Saviors of Kamigawa Preview

    Spiritual Visit looks cool. What's with the "sweep" thing? Edit: Okay, so the answer was Gottlieb's article. Sweep is a useless word that they threw onto some spells. The spell already says that it returns basic lands of a specified type to your hand. We don't need "sweep" to tell us that...

    Anyone seen the "Power ninth edition" poster that's been circulating around?

    Well, "obviously" could imply that it should be known without the links, since it is so easy to tell that it's a fake. While that was what I suspected, I wasn't absolutely positive that it was a fake, so I don't think it was obvious (or apparent) unless one looked into the matter (which I didn't...

    Social Security, or is it?

    Don't assume that just because something has been apparently stable for a few decades that it is perfect. Also blaming the presidents (especially a single president) is oversimplifying things...
