Is this because state-based effects aren't checked until after the resolution of the effect?

Well, he's got only one so although the Ring is an option, it's not primarily what I'm looking for. And I'm still not sure whether to go B/G or B/U, so Void is also low on the list. But thanks :) I went through my black cards last night and found some more options, like Forced March and...

What about that red spell that deals 2 damage to creatures coming in play? Aether something...?

** Beats me. I am willing to check out the council chamber while others check out the boat. If no one says anything otherwise in a day, I say that's what I do (bringing Halycon along, of course). **

Ditto... Well, I'm thinking of a black/blue or black/green deck mainly to go anti-threshold (from my thread a couple of weeks ago) so going artifacts would probably be the best for me. The Irisdescent Angel just happens to be in the threshold deck I'm going against.

Maze of Ith is an okay "stalling" card. The Monastery won't help (I believe) because it becomes a G/W creature. yeah, this casual. Chamber, Sandstone, Innocent Blood and Mutilate don't ring a bell so I don't think I have them, but I'll check. Nev's Disk is good, I don't know why I didn't...

Nope.

I meant when it was already out (otherwise you could include countering with land destruction, unless you were thinking of a different tack). For some reason I didn't think of artifact kill though. That opens up some more possibilities... thanks.

I thought my horse looked kinda "cheery" some mornings, if you get my drift..... :D What about that Gerode? Maybe he's being silent to avoid drawing attention to himself... :)

I don't think the Warlord sucks too bad; I used it back in Revised days. It's not too good in a tourney setting as there were better 4 cc creatures and red didn't have a lot of quick ways of making lots of creatures (now, using it as the "general" of a goblin army and using Goblin Warrens might...

Is there any way of getting rid of it besides Wrath of God or Jokulhaups? And the very unlikely Diabolic Edict?

Iridescent Angel, for sure.

Well, since the caster would be probably be on the losing side of life, it would be a reset for him. If his opponent is already ahead in life, this could set him back :)

My feeling is that because you were the first to have "decent" articles (in his view) in a while, he thought you had potential but since you've decided to stay with us, you've lost it. :)

I'm not sure if you're answering the question, Isty... it looks like a combination of whether the cards are in flavor, whether they'll be good for decks in general, whether yo'd like to play it... is that so? There isn't a consistent way in how you're voting for these cards?

"Would it be wise to split our group and have some check out the council chamber as the "room with many doors"? If not, I'm willing to go along to the docks..."

I agree with Jigglypuff's remarks, although perhaps the life thing is intentional with negatives, punishing a player if he has more than 20 life but wants to cast the spell. But if not, the "each player's life is set to 20" is good enough.

I think it's too cheap, especially with green's ability to make lots of tokens (Saprolings, squirrels) AND with the untargetable ability. Keldon Warlord is RR2 for just the "grow" ability (although I can't remember it's initial p/t). But of course, I have no suggestions on how to "make it...

I'm just curious... how do you guys vote for these cards? Is it by whether the candidates are "suitable" or in flavor for a basic set? Whether you like the cards in YOUR deck? Whether you hate seeing them on the opposite side of the table? Other? I tend to go with if I'll find the card...

You sure it's not your connection, Apollo? Two sites that seem open to others seems awfully suspicious...
