I'm getting real discouraged with my dream to make a slightly viable U/G non-prison T2 deck :( . So I took another look at it from a more control idea instead of Aggro-Control. Here's my list for now:
3x Questing Phelddagrif
4x Jungle Barrier
4x Mystic Snake
4x Counterspell
4x Absorb
3x...
I got two words: Friggin'-Pernious-Deed!!!!!!
This guy is in 7th Ed., I think he's great! A 2/1 Flyer that is virtually untargettable due to his ability to return to your via 1U. It's no Rainbow Effret, but it is in TODAY'S T2 environment.
Wuddyathink?
Hi All,
Before I give my report (a-hem), I want to put a post-script on the ugly incident I wrote about on the thread "Team CMU": At this tournament I saw the dude I accused of getting preferential treatment and shook hands with him and we apologized to each other for our actions (it's behind us...

~This~ does not go onto the "Stack". It resolves as it is played.
All spells and abilities currently on the "Stack" do not resolve.
Until End of Turn, no spells or abilities may be played.
The active player's turn is now at the "End Turn" step.
"Forever, shall you...
I have just finished an extra-curricular course called "The Alexander Technique for Musicians". The basic idea behind this technique is: when your head/neck and shoulder area is free of tension, the rest of the body will feel better. This is a huge concept for us musicians because many of us...
First: I am attending various classes this summer at Duquesne Univ. I started this past Monday and have not had the pleasure to defend myself on this topic, what a surprise to log on this morning and find not only that TEAM CMU has come to the rescue of one of their memebers, but finding my name...
Okay, I have mistakenly allowed my opponent to play Worship, he also has the Gold G/W enchantment that protects other enchantments AND that Gold card that produces 2x 1/1 Goblins if you sac a land.
Having foolishly allowed ALL of this to happen, how do I get rid of this combo?
I am playing...
Last night, a new member of Team CMU came to the shop last night to try out his new version of Counter-Sliver (It was an extended tourney). I didn't play against him and he was very tight-lipped about his deck. He ended up by winning the $36 dollar pot but that's not the whole story:
Our shop...
I never considered using this lil' guy back in the day, but now, whew, he could be worth his weight.
For 1G you get a 1/3 blocker that can block a lot of creatures, and FLYING creatures too.
You drop him, and forget about him, now that's efficient.
Is this thing in 7th? It's a friggin' super Tim. I think this has some definite usage in the current T2 environment.
I am considering using it in a U/G control deck (non-prison). Any thought?
Dateline: Monday June 11, 2001
I normally only have one day a week to play Magic at the local shop but due to some family matters I missed my play date last week, so I got two this week (BTW, if you're married, you know what I'm going through ;)).
So I chose to go on Monday to play in addition...
After last night's disaster with the Weird U/G deck, I got to thinking about what U/G decks in the past have had mild success. Adrian Sullivan put together one of my fav's, "ConTroll". I won a couple of small local tournaments with that one and I was just thinking, could it be viable again...
Okay, everyone knows that I'm obsessed with G/U, and Apocalyso <heh-heh> is driving me WILD I tell ya!
So I got to thinking that maybe I can revive a little bit of that "Trinity" deck a while back, you remember, the deck that made your lands go back on top of your library via Plow Under and the...
