Oh wait, LOL its 9th edition, so white bordered. STILL the only copy from that set, and the normal ones from Urza's is $12. So, do you think I should wait in case they will reprint this in the commander decks this year, or buy it now?
Well, both editions are currently $10 using SCG pricing, so if you can get it for less than that you're probably in good shape. Even if it gets reprinted, it's not likely to drop it in price that significantly, especially since it will be sought after as the only BB printing in a modern frame.
I do agree that I'm personally waiting for many of my "larger" purchases until the new precons are spoiled.
welcome to MURIKA! where if it aint white protestant right-wing conservative or sold here we attempt to bomb the living **** out of it.... be careful man lol

Oh yeah.... huh. My new border Arena and Greater Good are black bordered because I blackened the borders. Totally forgot how awful those look with white.
Just buy them. Waiting 2 months for a card that may or may not be in there and will still cost money if it is... just buy them. They aren't as expensive as you guys are quoting if you look in the right place.

So yeah, I'm going the tribal route for a change, I've went from mono-green spirits to Naya spirits to Karador spirits now.
I want to get everything out of spirit tribal but they ain't that easy.
What's everyone else up to?
Anyone know when we're going to get C13 spoilers?

Other than getting stomped on cocka, looking forward to spending some time with the folks this evening for the Notre Dame game. I imagine the C13 would be last 3 weeks of October?

Lolz I think I'm spectating in a game of yours as I type this.

I'll have to check my funds, but I might be able to pull this off today, I don't know... If they do reprint it in the commander decks, I'll just end up with two copies, so that's pretty cool. I just hope they still have it and their computer didn't mess up (this has happened to me a few times before)
Either way, I run those in spirits :3
Spirits is not tailored at all and haven't even played with my new list so oops :3
Lol. It would be fun to build a pure troll list, that's for sure. It's insane though. Literally the last game I played (Not blue, but frustrating) was against Radha, Heir to Keld. He just so happened to get the Dust Bowl, and just so happened to draw 9 lands in a row, making it possible to blow up each and every one of my lands as I dropped them, it was absurd. And of course, as soon as I get my StP, he immediately drops Scavenging ooze, and beats me to death after I'm stuck on a plains. It's just such bull****. At least I got some satisfaction after Iona'ing him T4 with Loyal Retainers the first game, naming red, he scooped with that one

Heh. I play a lot online lol. I think I should do it less, it's really starting to get to me. I just don't get why I so consistently lose, it's awful. Multiplayer I win more than half the games I play, but 1v1? It's terrible :/

They will always be tradeable and easy to move. I also really doubt they will be in there.

Without LD blue will pretty much always win in 1v1. Blue just has so many options, powerful options, at it's disposal to deal with you while it's trying to combo off. When I try to go against blue I try to nuke their lands as much as possible with stuff that can kill permanents or lands. Maybe I should put armageddon in the deck. Hmnnn.
Sometimes I'll do 1v1 games with my Saffi deck since it is built competitively or whatever. It's built for multiplayer, but it does ok in 1v1. Ok so about half of the time I lose horribly. Last time I was nuking this guys lands, not fast enough, and he played sadistic dude to make me discard 4 cards. That lost me the game.

Just build a blue deck and play better than your opponents.

That brought something to mind.
Has anyone else run into someone who isn't a very good player, but who plays only one or two decks, usually ones copied from somewhere online or a tournament decklist or something like that, and plays those specific decks very, very well because he's played them a million times and rote-learned what to do with that deck?
There's a guy in the local meta who plays a mono-blue deck like that. It's a pretty strong deck as is, but he plays it with robotic perfection, yet he is all but completely incompetent when he plays with someone else's deck, or in sealed or draft.
Nothing. It's probably true. I like the theory of the game way too much to ever pay attention to the application all that much. I get so excited by other peoples' plays that I forget my own all the time.
I just went to a parade... as a participant. We got stuck in the staging area for 2.5 hours next to Hare Krishnas who really liked to sing. Getting to look into a 1972 Pantera... pretty sure it could do wheelies.
I would say that the next commander product is close enough that I'm putting off a few decisions until that's all spoiled.
Prosh, Skyraider of Kher.dec It's stupid in that deck, completely and utterly absurd.
I just played this deck online, and I have never been more terrified of Orcish Lumberjack in my life. Literally, terrified.
T1 Taiga, Orcish Lumberjack
T2 Stomping Ground, Lumberjack the taiga, drop Birds of Paradise, Shared Animosity, Concordant Crossroads
T3 Dragonskull Summit, Lumberjack the Stomping Ground, Prosh ... GG?
It's insane, and the deck literally does this every round by T5 at the latest, be it Shared Animosity, Coat of Arms, Beastmaster Ascension, ... It's absurd.

For the life of me, I just can't seem to beat blue or Blue/x online, with my tailored B/W/G deck running specifically to counter blue. You'd think between Grand Abolisher, Savage Summoning, Cavern of Souls, Voice of Resurgence, Krosan Grip, Sudden Death, Phyrexian Revoker, Nevermore, Aven Mindscensor, Sadistic Hypnotist, Ulvenwald Tracker, Abrupt Decay, Hymn to Tourach, and Thrun, the Last Troll it would be doable. Evidently not. I swear the little bastards cheat on there. I get to Loyal Retainers an Iona like, T5 with Survival, naming black aganist a B/U Sygg deck, and of course he tops into Skullclamp after having a Bitterblossom out and draws into the blue bounce spell. Just lost 3 matches in a row to Zur, Sygg, and Talrand. It just makes me so angry. Grrrr

blue control? stax is always the answer.
Run armageddon package with Crucible of Worlds, Land Tax, Life from the Loam,..
Edit: Strip mine, Wasteland, Krosan Grip, Birthing Pod, so many goodies..
Edit2: troll them with Teferi's Puzzle Box along with your Land Tax and Scroll Rack... (ok maybe I'm going too far now)
Either way, I run those in spirits :3
