Well, typically "opponent" does refer to the opponent of the controller of the enchantment. But few enchantments have effects where it becomes an issue. There are the Oaths, but they are worded pretty clearly... Like I said, I understand what the card is supposed to do. My point was that there...

What kind of counterspell? Almost all of the new counterspells have sucked horribly. Not that the game needs another good one...

It seems like what you're referring to is "fixing" cards by increasing mana costs. That is one way of doing things. Mox Sapphire is too good free? Make it cost 2 and come into play tapped (Sky Diamond). This concept has been shown to work in many instances, but it's nothing new or particularly...

The letters in the Magic deck didn't stand for everything. It was called MUD because it was a monobrown deck (artifacts).

Yeah, I also confused Magical Hack with Mind Bend...

Nope, can't say I was... On Mind Twist... I used to have a black discard deck that ran four. The card is such a bomb. You can use Dark Ritual to eat your opponent's hand early in the game. It can also be used to get rid of one or two cards when necessary. And it's great to draw off a Memory...

Manabase?

I think the deck is fast enough for the Cities not to be a huge concern...

He used to be an Evil Sith Rodent, but then he changed it to "Weasel" after something Ferret posted.

I think they called it "Amalgam." Am I right?

Playing Damping Matrix could work for an aggro deck. But using countermagic to protect it is pretty controlish...

How about... Whenever a creature comes into play, its controller chooses an opponent. That player puts a -1/-1 counter on a creature of his or her choice.

I was not thinking of Dralnu's Pet at all (fun casual trick with Draco, but unimpressive). I can't remember what the card I was actually thinking of was. I'll get back to you on that...

I like the bigger one more...

Yeah, I think that's more balanced. Limited: It's not a "rule" in the sense that it is a rule of the game. It's just a preference of Mark Rosewater (and probably some other people in R&D). I see nothing wrong with this land, except for the fact that it could be too good of an aggro-hoser. The...

It's cardboard, or more accurately, it's an image masquerading as cardboard. Cards are not people. No one really considers Train a racist for his whole anti-blue thing. And I have had something against the "human" creature type ever since I first heard about it. Some players strongly dislike...

Um, that IS what I also got out of it. I assumed that it would have to be that way. I think it's unclear though...

Well, that does kill a lot of potential combos with him. But there's still something like Dralnu's Pet or worse--Illusionary Mask. Turn 1: Swamp, Dark Ritual, Dark Ritual, Illusionary Mask, face down creature. Turn 2: Flip it over, attack, Oh look, it flies and hits you for 40. Bye bye.
