Nothing Special
I decided to bump this thread since our latest match thread got so long.
Anyway, I have to hand it to BigBlue, this is the most fun Magic format I have ever played. And I'm not just saying that because I won. I've just never played any game that required this much depth and thought - open to so many possibilities. It's like combining deck building and game playing into one. It also completely eliminates the luck factor from Magic (IMO, the one thing that makes the game un-fun) because you can never draw a bad hand. The card you want is always available, although it takes some effort to find the right card for every situation, especially when trying to anticipate your opponent's next move. It's like playing a game of chess on a giant board with 80,000+ different pieces. I suggest everyone here who participates in the games give this one a try.
Okay, enough raving. I think we should start another thread (or move this one) in another forum, where it won't be constantly bumped down. There, we can keep track of any rules updates, strategies, general discussion, etc. Speaking of rules updates, Erratic Explosion & Kaboom! will need to be banned. 16 damage for 3 mana seems a little bit too powerful, even if you can only do it once. That's all for now, but I know I had some other thoughts I wanted to share.
