sideboards are fun to use, alas we cannot get the train moving and kill off those funny fools...

It was against some pretty tough folks who took all day to play one game! and yes they knew how to use the decks

Jimmy Dean! Ha! I gotcha now you little kidder.

That's my point... can I use cards that were uncommon at some point in their Magic lifetime, or if they were or are ever a rare I can't use them?...

Sengir Vampire and Serra Angel used to be uncommons as well. Having four of them was quite easy...I guess WotC's strategy was to first remove the card from print and then bring it back as a rare...

Actually, when they were pretty much the best creature at the time (Revised) and you didn't buy many cards, they weren't easy to get. I remember playing my buddy for ante and I only started winning consistently after I won his lone or one out of two Serra's from his deck and put it in mine :)

Serra probably should have been rare from the start due to her p/t and ability to mana cost ratio... Sengir a harder choice but since he was the matchup for her, WOTC probably erred on the side of rare.

Now a days we have crap like *Pulls out box of cards*:

Impatience, Obstinate Familiar, Wheel and Deal, Butcher Orgg, Etc.

Where did they go wrong?

<headsnap> Oh no he didn't just try to diss Butcher Orgg </headsnap>

1 v 1, sure he's not good. But in MP he's a 1 man wreaking crew.

Obstinate Familiar is the type 1 killer against the academy decks, that run prosperity or braingeyser...;)

its the trained orgg... thats the 6/6 with nothing to do for 7

The familiar is still a good card but not in a casual weenie, or even judgement game.
