I built a mono-green edh. I felt like I needed a shower after a game where I EoT'd into something like 200+ Eldrazi Mounment Insect tokens.
Also, on a side note: Anyone have a dirty EDH stax list? I need to really punish one of my friends who is getting a but cocky about how he can always combo out.
Whatcha traveling for? If it's vacation, that sounds like a long one. I'm preemptively jealous.
Since I started traveling for work in 2013, I've really wanted to get out and see Europe. Enjoy it out there.
Two week kickback involving tourist traps such as Ancient Ruins, Deep Dark Caves, Big Ass Hole Filled With Water, Extravagantly Named Islands, and Whatever Alcohol I Can Get My Hands On. Cruise Control For Cool.
Europe's currently looking like a faint hope, but I do want to spend some time running around. No fun in being surrounded by the same environment day after day.

Tantarus: It didn't make the gaka greifer level, so it should be fine
Last night we used my EDH cube for the first time. I got one person who doesn't particularly care for EDH to say he like it a lot more than EDH and one guy who refuses to play EDH anymore to play it.
I ended up building a Damia, Sage of Stone super ramp into big spells deck. Game one I think I killed my opponents with a Mind Grind for 30 on like turn 8-9 ish.
Game two was a little less crazy and game three was me riding the land screw gameplan (probably because I kept tutoring them all up and they probably clumped on me. I did manage to assemble Chainer, Dementia Master + Greater Good + Venser, Shaper Savant in game two which was amusing.

I have officially moved to MTGNexus. I just wanted to let people know as my response time to salvation decks being bumped is very hit or miss.
I avoided mind grind because I felt that mill was too easy to abuse in a cube.
I figured I would just put everything in and let testing prove what is the problem. The issue was really that I happened to be on a heavy ramp + have the big X mill together. I also had Exsanguinate which in that case would have operated mostly similar. Its on the watch list after my deck but I dont know if I should expect it to continue being a problem or not.

I used to drink monsters when I had to stay up late for school stuff. But then I realized that it made me like twitch and shake after I would go to sleep and realized thats not cool on so many levels. I have not drank one in several years now.
I actually gave up caffeine altogether a few months ago. I stopped buying soda too for the most part a little while back and am forcing myself to drink water whenever possible. I figure its a cheap thing to do as well as just being good for me.

I have a friend who drank 8 Monsters in the course of an hour and was just fine.
He's also like 600 pounds, and has passed the Milk Gallon Challenge.
So... mortals beware.
So... looping back to this it disturbs me even more just due to the size of general cans of monsters. Those things tend to come in something like 24oz cans or something of the sort. I dont think I recall smaller cans than that.
I feel queezy just drinking one of those things but the thought of putting that much mass of energy drink in my stomach at one time makes me sort of feel sick. I recall when I would have to stay up all night I used to get two of them for the course of the night but the idea of just downing them one after the other.... ehhhhhhhhh

I feel your pain. I just got a Goblin Chieftain for this Grenzo deck and its turning full tribal. It feels wrong, both playing a tribal deck and worse, goblins.
Sorry, but without a soundcloud of it I can't accept this.

You're bad and you should feel bad.
Shower nothing. You need a cleansing ritual.
It's not stax, exactly... but you should check out my Tajic List I just posted here. It's built for screwing everyone up.

Gave up Monster as my new years resolution, as I was up to 3 BFC's a day. It's a lot harder than I thought it would be.
I ended up building a Damia, Sage of Stone super ramp into big spells deck. Game one I think I killed my opponents with a Mind Grind for 30 on like turn 8-9 ish.
T1: land
T2: land, Signet
T3: land, Trinket Mage, Sol Ring
T4: land, Commander
T5: land, Skyshroud Claim, Snapcaster Mage, Skyshroud Claim
T6: land, Boundless Realms, vomit more of my hand into play
T7: land, Mana Reflection, stuff?????
T8: land, Relic of Progenitus, Mind Grind for 30 with 3 lands up.
Game two was a little less crazy and game three was me riding the land screw gameplan (probably because I kept tutoring them all up and they probably clumped on me. I did manage to assemble Chainer, Dementia Master + Greater Good + Venser, Shaper Savant in game two which was amusing.

Now that I think about it, maybe I should put it in.

3 BFCs a day is a dangerous amount of Monster. Like, actually dangerous.
All this Mind Grind talk has made me realize I should probably slot it in my actual Damia deck as an alternate win con.
I've been using Villainous Wealth because its fun, but it only hits one guy.
I like to live dangerously
Nah, I know, that's why I gave it up. That, and sheer money problems, gets expensive after a while.
So for the past couple of days I've been highly irratable, flying off on a tangent for dumb things. Mostly stuff at work and the Modern forum :/

Thanks for the visual.... thats not going anywhere anytime soon.
Perhaps it didn't do anything to him because he is always on the verge of a heart attack???

I once placed a very small weight onto his chest while he was sitting next to me on the couch and he thought it was his heart giving out.

This was in preparation for a High School science competition.
I don't go hard.
I'm down to a gallon.
Also, Shadows of Brimstone is like crack.
