One of my friends plays mostly modern, but he will play standard events just to cast DIG THROUGH TIME. It's his favorite.
Played a few OGW pre-release events and brought the cards home to brew with. I must say that my new favorite thing to do is:
Cast Abbot of Keral Keep, exile Expedite, play a mountain, and cast Expedite on Abbot, draw a card and turn that monk sideways for a hasted 3 damage. EXPEDITE ON ABBOT IS SUPER FUN!
Yes, I realize I am a hardcore Timmy.

Play bad a (mostly) creatureless Enchantment Control deck. Kinda refreshing that no matter how hard Wizards pushes creature combat as the primary interaction in Standard, Magic will always provide alternative playstyles.
- Body nerds with Pitiless Horde
- Hold up Stubborn Denial in an Abzan deck
- "Untap, cast Sylvan Advocate, play the 6th land I drew, animate Shambling Vent, 4 you, go"
LP, I'm checking your article out as well. Behind all of your swag is the brain of one of the most intelligent Magic players I've ever known. I guess that's one more thing for you to add to the wall of ego that is your Sally sig.
I can go with that. LK, you are the Mace Windu of red mages...cool, tempered logic in deliberation, but capable of just flat kicking tail when the situation warrants it.
Hitting with Dimensional Infiltrators Exile ability Exiling a land from your opponents deck in response to them Trying to kill it, or pretty much do anything to it. Yesterday I use the ability and hitting 3 different times and I blanked a Soulfire'ed Fiery Temper to avoid killing the creature and gaining life when my opponent was at two life and I flashed him back in at the end of turn. Also blanked a Reflector mage, and was able to jump block a Kalitas and bounce it back to my hand so it would not die and my opponent could not gain life. The look on my opponents faces when I get lucky is priceless

Yea, those are MTG Bars. What can I say, I am a dork
I still love playing Allies with a metric ton of Counters on everything, then throwing out a pair of Enduring Scalelord to make then 1M/1M with trample from a Tuskguard Captain. It's slow, easy to counter, but when it goes right, it's so fun.

Aggressive value creatures are fun so I want to play with Abbot of the Keral Keep. I'm pumped about Goblin Dark-Dwellers too.
Kolaghan's Command is my favourite card in all formats. A simple taste, perhaps.

Discard 2 + kill 2 creatures is the most common one. Also, kill 2x hangarback walkers and deal 4 to another creature.
The worst part is you don't get to choose other modes for the copy, but you can change targets.

I beat Brad Nelson with it at a gp, what greater pleasure is there?
Can't top that! Will never be able to top that!
For simpler pleasures:
RNA Standard: Grixis Midrange, Jund Deathwhirler, Sultai Vannifar
GRN Standard: Red Midrange, Mono-Blue Tempo, Wr Aggro, Gruul Experimental Dinosaurs, Sultai Midrange, Jeskai Midrange
Modern: Bant Spirits
Forcing a single archetype in all formats: too many colors, bad mana.
Or, playing Goblin Dark-Dwellers to recast a Kolaghan's Command to pick up another Goblin Dark-Dwellers.
