MTG Salvation

Quote from lucashungaro

Spellskites MD are good for some bad matchups (Burn, Infect, Bogle), but increasing the possibility of having dead cards on this deck may not be your best bet.

What would you play main deck instead of those two?

Quote from lucashungaro

Chalice of the Void is good versus Burn and Infect when you're on the play, otherwise it's usually too slow to matter (Chrome Mox, Where Art Thou?). I used to like it but now I prefer Spellskite (has broader applications).

I can see what you mean. What would you recommend as another sideboard card for me? Another Spellskite or a Dismember?

Quote from lucashungaro

Other than that I like your choices (I'm a big fan of Pithing Needle in this deck) and would just try to play 4 Dismember, it's our only out on a bunch of matchups.

Thanks! I really do like this deck. I think the biggest enemy we have is ourselves. If we mulligan correctly and make proper calls I really do think we have a solid game.

Here is the list I'm messing around with, but I do want some advice on what, if any, changes I should make. It's a fairly standard list, I think. I'm most worried about my sideboard and I don't really know the best way of building it. I want more Chalice of the Void I think. For main, I like the build, but I might want another Oblivion Stone , a Repeal, or a Spell Burst.

EDIT: I also want to play another Wurmcoil Engine somewhere.

How do we know where to go to get the promo after we buy the game?

anybody want to buy my zoo deck for $600??

contains 4 tarmogoyfs, 3 plateau, 3 taiga, 3 savannah, 3 windswept heath, 2 arid mesa, 3 wooded foothills and obviously the rest of the deck...

hey guys,

after a couple months of internal struggling, I have finally admitted to myself that I am quitting magic.

I am gathering up all my commons and uncommons over the years and probably giving them to Mark's.

My rare binder will probably suffer the same fate, but you guys are welcome to pick over it first. There are a couple of cards I'd like reimbursement for, but most of them will probably be negligible.

Now, I still haven't been able to make myself part with my decks, so I will probably hold on to them for now.

However, I would be willing to leave my decks in the care of certain people, because I know they would use the cards, while I would not. These people probably know who they are, all they have to do is ask me for the cards.

It's been a great run, and I've had a lot of fun. I'll keep in touch. Unfortunately I won't have many breaks, because I am receiving a masters degree in four years, and need to use my summers to keep on track. Still, I'll be in NY every once in a while, and if I have time, I'll make sure to come in and play a game or two

Take care guys, wish you all the best.

I haven't been around because I had a couple of things to take care of, but I'll be back starting this week...

That's another person for FNM.

ummm what is going on in DC???

4 knight of reliquary

also someone offered me 2 forces for the 2 jaces...is this a good idea? thoughts opinions?

I would really appreciate these for my zoo deck, but I can't purchase them...damn it...

And, if I had two Jaces, I would trade them for force of will, but that's because I feel like FoW is the better card and has always been a high-cost staple for legacy and vintage while Jace is only expensive because he's a highly playable mythic legal in all magic formats.

btw GoC, don't bin the cards....give them to me

Quote from Mephistophelic Orion

GoC,
In the meantime, I have a date...speaking of junk, girl's been trying to get mine all week. Can we say "good times"? :-D Have a good night playing sealed, gentlemen...

I see what you did there

i have a foil tuktuk too!

I also have a transcendent master for you...we'll work it out

I think he means mana elves and stuff, not eldrazi spawn

Quote from god of cyanide

yes, but i really don't value them highly.

let's see if we can work something out on friday

oh, and what does everyone think of this so-called "new" format that is being talked about on the rumor mill?

Personally, I hope it's not true because it would mean legacy is out the door...

At prerelease, my packs had almost no white cards in them. My friends had the exact same issue. It was as if the white cards had just decided to be missing in action.

Do you mean the one mana leveling vampire? I think he's pretty bad too...He reminds me of Royal Assassin.

Anybody want foil fullart Emeria Angels? i have 2 for trade...
