  • posted a message on Where do you find yourself most often in KTK?
    I find that I keep playing red and blue in most of my drafts. The proportions vary as well; usually its straight up Jeskai (Efreet Weaponmaster is so good) but I'll play Temur if the cards come my way as well. Abzan and Mardu are tied for third as I just don't play these combinations as much as Jeskai or Temur.

  • posted a message on Best trade? (NOT best ripoff!!!)
    Back when Thundermaw Hellkite was a big thing in Standard, I traded one for two Mox Opal. At the time, it was a perfectly fair deal (at some point, it even became unfavourable). Of course, looking back, I now look like a genius making that trade.

    I believe that all Chinese foil Planeswalkers were printed without loyalty numbers.




    Looks like they have loyalty numbers to me, while the picture is not the best quality this is definitely Chinese.

    See thread here: http://www.mtgsalvation.com/forums/market-street/market-street-cafe/564986-foil-planeswalkers-in-magic-2015-all-misprinted-in
    Maybe different version of Chinese (can't tell the difference because there isn't a Nissa there) or different print run perhaps after the mistake was fixed?

    Has anyone tried using See Beyond? It could be interesting as another mean to fight against discard (i.e you draw the Lightning Storm naturally, but you can put it back into your library?).

  • posted a message on If you could draft with anyone...
    So here's something I had a thought about while I was deciding on a list of friends to invite to playtest my cube:
    If you could have an 8 - man draft with any player, and any format, who and what would you pick?
    The list of players could be anyone that can play magic, i.e. you best friend, a family member or even LSV if you feel like it Smile
    The draft format can be any format that is actually draftable (i.e. you can't pick three random sets; cube is an option however), but it can be any format that you like and for whichever reason you prefer (it's a personal favorite or challenging for example).

    Edit: What is Cypriot player? Are you from Cyprus?

    Yeah. We haven't had anyone Top 8 something big yet (although we have had some very good performances over the last three years or so)and I'd love to be the first to do something like that.

  • posted a message on What is your personal MTG goal?
    1) Assemble a large enough group of friends that play MtG so that I can always count on having someone to play with when there isn't an event.
    2) Build as many Modern decks as possible without proxies and have enough to lend to people so we can play large events.
    3) Own a playset of Goyfs and at least 2 of each Modern legal fetchland.
    4) Finally get one of those damn mats that you get for Top 8 in a PTQ or WMCQs. The amount of times this has eluded me is heartbreaking.

    I'd also like to be the first Cypriot player to Top 8 a GP or Pro Tour, but that's not happening any time soon.

  • posted a message on First time cube creator - advice
    Well the size really depends on how many people you intend to have play with it at one time and whether or not you want to have cards "left over", i.e. you'll make it so that the cards are the same every time or that there are some left over so there is a bit of change.
    Granted, the mot popular sizes are 360 (for 8), 450 (for 10), 540 (for 12) and 720 (for 16). My 1080 cards list on the other hand did not go down that well...

  • posted a message on Prerelease Question - Need Help
    Quote from Master Moja
    So I know the BNG prerelease comes with two BNG packs, two THS packs, your promo premium rare, and a preconstructed pack of fifteen cards of te color you chose to correspond with your promo. My question is, are all of the cards in the preconstructed 15 card pack from BNG? Or are there Theros cards mixed in? Someone please help me out! If anyone knows feel free to tell. Thanks!


    Isn't it 3 THS packs, 2 BNG and then 1 "promo" pack?

    Black's mains source of instant speed draw effects seem to be those with additional effects like 'put on top of the library' like Grave Consequences or Gravepurge.

  • posted a message on Modern Masters epic or fail?
    I'd like to state that my box was pretty epic:
    'Goyf (Ooh Yeah)
    FOIL Sword of Light and Shadow
    Sword of Fire and Ice
    FOIL Gifts Ungiven
    Aether Vial
    FOIL Kitchen finks + 2 normal
    FOIL PLUMEVEIL (OMG!) Grin
    Playable uncommons (Spell Snare, Path to Exile, e.t.c)

    Well chuffed.:rolleyes:

    Definately my Dark Confidants. I've got one in French, one Italian, a Russian and a Russian foil. Probably my favourite card as well.

  • posted a message on Interesting P1P1 decision
    Personally, I'd go for the Abberation. It's a very ridiculous card
    Also, mill isn't something most people would do in a draft, so it might be possible to make something sick.
    Gift of Orzhova is pretty good, but personally I'd take the creature first.

  • posted a message on [[Official]] Worst disaster or theft of your cards
    Real shame when something like that happens to anyone.
    A friend of mine had his Kuldotha and Storm Modern decks stolen (and I mean everything: deckbox, sleeves, sideboard). Real shame, especially when the deck has a borrowed card in it (in this case a foil Scalding Tarn).:-/
