MTG Salvation

I guess that works too.

Cyouni pauses at the unexpected intervention, his hand already raised to cast a spell. "Thanks." The mage shrugs, and black mana coalesces into a sword in his hand, which he hurls at the dragon.

End of turn, casting Doom Blade on the Phantasmal Dragon.

Cyouni flicks a hand off to the side, and the demon's spell shatters. (Negate.)

Assuming he doesn't try and cast another Mana Leak...

Another weave of darkness appears around Cyouni, and he uses it to crush another spell.

Swamp, Extirpate the Mana Leak.


And that's the end - he has pretty much no path to victory anymore.

Could be worse. You could be the guy whose plan is "turtle while slowly bleeding out threats".

The elf continues, eyes flicking back and forth between the three. "Why are you still here I told you to go away disappear disappear disappear disappear disappear..."
Again, he swipes his hand at Gully's elf and brings forth two beasts. This time, however, one of the beasts is wholly unfamiliar.

I'm pretty sure the answer's going to be yes, but I'm going to talk it over to be sure.

I guess I take 4 then.

From inside the cave, the group can hear a frenzied muttering, which begins even before Gully finishes speaking. "No go away what are you doing here go away leave me alone go away go away go away!" The muttering builds to a sound almost like a shriek, at which point an elf staggers out of the cave's depths. His clothes are ragged and filthy, and his hands grasp wildly at the empty air. Green and black ropes of mana twine themselves around his arms.

One hand claws at Gully's summoned elf, which falls dead, and two beasts step from the aether to guard him.

If Luu can stop an Elixir of Immortality once it's on the field, I'll Wring Flesh one of the bears.

"Depends on if Luu can stop an artifact or not."

Is Theros locked? You didn't mention it in your edit in on the rules and announcements.

I believe we are following the same process as the rest with Theros (ie. first two sets are unlocked, last is locked), but don't quote me on it.

Regardless, it may be difficult to get spells from Theros, especially given that we haven't crafted a subforum for it yet.

I have returned from hiatus.

With the porting of a character, are we allowed to reinvent the character completely?

I'm pretty sure the answer is yes, assuming you mean what I think you mean.

As the group approaches the cave's opening, stalactites near the entrance become faintly visible. The smell of mildew emanates from the opening, and the faint sound of scratching can be heard.



Apparently Gully and Kai are both getting a free turn, since I can't make decent rolls.

It has come to my attention that the changes to the RPG are not listed in this rules document.

- Starting satchel sizes have been reduced from 32 purchasing points (PP) to 20.
- Starting satchels are also to select cards from only the following sets: M10, M11, M12, M13, M14. If you start on the appropriate plane, you can select cards from the following blocks: Zendikar, Scars of Mirrodin, Innistrad, and Return to Ravnica. The third set of each of these blocks is not available.
- Elixir of Immortality is restricted to a 2-cast.
- All Spirit Guide abilities are 1/turn, and can't be used until the third turn cycle.
- Ancient Den, Great Furnace, Seat of the Synod, Tree of Tales, Vault of Whispers, Blazing Shoal, Chrome Mox, Dark Depths, Dread Return, Glimpse of Nature, Rite of Flame, and Seething Song are banned.

Good to see you back, AoK.

Also, Lorwyn/Shadowmoor should be unlocked.
Most planes are unlocked, with the exception of the third set of each plane. For example, it's hard to have Eldrazi if they're not released.

Unless the enemy can get through about 12 of my Fogs, 8 of his, and 6 boardwipes, not an issue.

Cyouni's eyes open, and he raises his hand, already glowing with mana. Clenching it into a fist, he wrenches it to the side, ripping a spell from the illusionist's mind.

Swamp, Extirpate the Cancel. I'm just hoping he doesn't have Extirpate himself. Either way, I still get his satchel information.

Odds are I take 3.

I guess I'm playing the long game this fight, since my build plans were ruined. Sigh.

Cyouni closes his eyes. "Fine then. No mercy."

If someone wants to hold something like Holy Day/Cancel just in case he has two sets of counterspells, that'd be nice.

Reminder that someone should be gaining life due to Soul Warden.

A blue line of mana traces itself around Cyouni as he snaps, "If you continue with your misplaced pity, you're going to die for it. Focus on the fight. Child or not, it plans to see us dead."

Playing Island, casting Ring of Evos Isle.

You guys might as well roll a d20 if you're going in expecting a fight.
