Very true (though i am not personally a fan of BYOS, but thats cuz i have no idea how to build a deck with those kind of restrictions lol)
Yeah for those its more of a team effort in submitting ideas I felt so until a final card/format was picked there was no way of determining the Rep.
Oh BTW that reminds me. We have won only 3 Clan Contests in our history. This is unfitting a Clan of our status. We must get better at these things. (Let me just say I was highly disappointed by our entry into the create your own mascot contest.)
Nah no thanks. You can keep your nerd thug tactics. It is ridiculous that I cant trade MY cards using MY databased list which is easy to update and manage. The mod community here is the terrible, virtual MTG brownshirt club.
Anyone interested in the newest iteration of Planechase? I really like the two newest spoiled cards.
Maelstrom Wanderer is straight replacing Riku, which will make it the third general of that deck with few other changes (first one being Intet just because it was the only one available). Riku is fine for the deck (and is scary when he comes out), but Maelstrom Wanderer will be better.

It takes a bit of thinking, but I'd mostly suggest finding a couple cards you'd like to build around and then browsing the blocks they're in to see if you can get a coherent deck out of it.

Actually it'd be easier to just port old standard decks and use the other block to strengthen it. For example, Onslaught block gave us goblins. I'd combine those with Urza's block for a few key goblin cards like goblin lackey to remake the legacy goblin deck. Likewise you can bring back extended dredge by using Ravinca dredge cards with Odyssey's graveyard cards like Ichorid and Psychatog or Time Spiral Block for Bridge From Below. Or you could go with therestless suggestion and actually be creative
Haha exactly as it sounds nice possibly unintended pun.
The reusable cascade guy looks like it'll be nice in the Nin, the Pain Artist deck a friend asked me to build.
Oh my god those sackboys are so cute!
So who here plays type 2? I just had my first standard legal game with the new set and Zealous Conscripts is absolutely amazing. I had a control player sitting with Tamiyo one away from her ultimate and he just wouldn't use it. He seemed pretty irritated actually now that I think about it
So swamped with work. I have more information on the novel and such but I'll have to post it when I have time to breathe.
Yeah I know Infect is dominating right now. If we decided on pauper we could ban that deck in the interests of a more diverse meta, especially since a full half the clans are not magic based.
Infect is OP, but actually DelverBlue/MUC makes up at least 25% of the winning Pauper decks each week and then UR Post is huge as well... as much as I love the format (its all I play) its stale and kind of boring... EDH or something would allow for a bit more creativitiy and fun

It's not MU, but this Delver deck is pretty wicked:
I had an idea for the tournament I'd like to throw out there. You guys are welcome to deny it, but it may help it be more of a Clan Contest type thing.
You could have all the clans build an EDH deck using a General that represents their clan much as we did in this contest, then have the clans run that deck in the tournament. I would be willing to assist whoever from your clan runs it. (I'm assuming you, tor?)
Just an idea I had. But, I checked, and if you guys want to run the tournament as an official Clan contest, you are more than welcome to. Just bring it up to the Council.
For clarification: I'm willing to assist with organizing the tournament whether you decide to go with my idea or not. And, that doesn't have to be just for EDH. Clans could work together to create whatever kind of deck they will be running for the tournament.
Vintage
EDH
BYOS
Legacy
We could vote for the 'create your own format' clan contest and make the tournament that format
We could do something fitting of us and make an 'every card must have a black mana symbol on it' as our tournament.
Infinite options here...
So I've been moving out so many people the past week. My truck ahs moved more couches then I knew existed >_>

EDH is good, but I vote Vintage. The format is surprisingly diverse given the introduction of Grafdigger's Cage.
No offense great Parun, but not many people play vintage. Also I can't stand the super strong workshop decks after lodestone golem was printed. My storm decks are very sad with all the combo hate lately.
I vote BOYS. I don't think anybody really plays it, so no one can really have an edge in a diverse format.
I don't understand all of the focus on standard in general. With MWS and Cockatrice, eternal formats are much more accessible than ever. Also, Darth Bunny, why would you expect me not to vote for a format where I might have an edge. I'm the villan, its what I do.

Meh I stopped caring about standard after Time Spiral block rotated out. All I do is cube, plus the occasional EDH and legacy from time to time.
It's great trying to get an edge, but if no one else will play the format, then I wouldn't expect too much success :p:D
I have finished placing the missing threads in the records of the wiki i would like to update the other parts of the wiki if anyone how has been here a while would go and give it a look over i would like to put in any missing records and update any information that is out of date

So I've decided what I'm going to do with my website. I'm going to use it to market my novel. So in the next while I think what I'm going to do is work on teaser content for the novel as well as a progress report for how close I am to completing it. What do you guys and gals and tentacled creatures think?
guys, me and my friend are having time coming up with a good 1 mana targeted discard spell for our custom set.
So far, we have settled on:
Cerebral Invasion B
Instant (U)
Look at target players hand and choose up to two nonland, noncreature cards from it. That player reveals the chosen cards, puts them on the bottom of his or her library, then draws a card.
What do you guys think? Its fairly underwhelming, as against anything other than control, its often card disadvantage.
EDIT: If you have a better option, please help!

As it stands, Cerebral Invasion seems almost too good. That's a double duress at instant speed, and storm/dredge can't even use the cards because they don't go to the grave. Not to mention "up to two" makes it a whole lot better, as duress forced you to pick something if you could. Oh, and "up to two" also makes it so you can target yourself with this spell, choose nothing, reveal nothing, and draw a card. Yah, I'd say it is too good (at least for constructed; more specifically, eternal).
As for another idea... I'm not too good at this, but I'll try:
----------------------
Pillage the Mind
Sorcery (U)
Target player separates his or her hand into three face-down piles. Choose one of those piles at random. That player discards all cards in that pile.
----------------------
Might be too good, especially on turn 1 when you opponent has 6-7 cards in hand, but I don't know. It doesn't seem amazing later in the game, and your opponent at least gets to choose what's in each pile so...
Yeah for those its more of a team effort in submitting ideas I felt so until a final card/format was picked there was no way of determining the Rep.
Oh BTW that reminds me. We have won only 3 Clan Contests in our history. This is unfitting a Clan of our status. We must get better at these things. (Let me just say I was highly disappointed by our entry into the create your own mascot contest.)

So far as everything else goes...what exactly is Name That Tune? I'm pretty damn good at ID'ing songs, if it's exactly as it sounds.
I'm excited for the RU art creature that can bounce itself to retrigger cascade. friggen sweet!
On a side note, check these out...they're frakkin adorable.
