Terastodon is spelled wrong in your list by the way and Triumph of Hordes should be Triumph of the Hordes. Not trying to be a grammar nazi, it just breaks the list if you try to MTGO text import it.
Had this game at a casual Tribal EDH tournament I went to last weekend. I'm mono B vampires vs 5c Elementals.
Turn 1 - Swamp > Sol Ring
Turn 2 - Swamp > Vampire Nighthhawk
Opponent taps out for a dude
Turn 3 - Swamp > Hatred, X=38, swing with 40/3 flyer for game
I understood that you were having problems mounting decks.
How many entries you have in your inventory table?
Could you send printscreen of the error so that u can understand it better?
I don't actually get an error, I'll sent you a PM with a link to a video of me recreating the issue. Now that I know how to create it I can use it fine and avoid the problem, but it does still exist for me.
Table has 4399 records.
*edit* Or I can just post it here since you have PMs disabled.
- Press Control + F2 (Always use the "deck mode")
- Press Control + M (Loading the main base)
- Press the button "!", in MWS (To clear any filters you have applied)
This should bring back the list of display cards
- When you save your deck: click on any card from him, then use the "Save As"
This should solve your problem and save the deck of cards "disappear"
Thanks for the reply, but unfortunately nope, still hvae the issue. It doens't seem to happen as often using "Save As" instead of the icon, but still happens. Control+F2 doesn't work as it's a mwInventory for tracking my collection and it doesn't even show up as a file to open in deck mode.
*edit* I've even had it do it when I wasn't saving now was just adding a card, isn't relevent it was a CMD card is it?...guess I'll try a reinstall and see what happens. If nothing still...look for something else I guess.
*edit 2* Hm, I'm able to duplicate it some now. If I add a comment to a card in the library (Such as 1 foreign - french) and hit enter, then click on a card in the master I get the wiped list. However if I enter the same note, and CLICK on another card in the library BEFORE I click on a card in the masterbase I get no clear. Soooo weird.
*edit 3* While keeping edit 2 in mind I haven't had a weird wipe yet....so it looks like it's some odd problem with the Comment field.
So I reinstalled MWS for the first time in a few years (was out of Magic) and had difficulties until I found the EasyInstaller. So thank you whoever puts that together.
However the problem I keep having, I will have a deck list that I'm working on. I click save, and then the decklists turns into a blank list. It's also saved that way, if I reopen the file it's now a blank list with nothing in it. This has happened multiple times. Any idea of a fix? Or a good alternative to track my collection in? (Might just use a plain database...) It seems to work fine other than this issue with saving sometimes.

Playing around with this on MTGO and really enjoying it, always loved playing this deck when it was standard legal.
My hardest point right now is finding a balance between cheap permanents that can mana ramp me up to WW and cheap permanents that can keep me alive early game. Right now I'm trying a build that is using 4X Wall of Omens and 4X Overgrown Battlement and I'm getting decent results. I've played a couple games where a very early Bogardan Hellkite is a blowout that sweeps the board. But I need to find some good cheaper creature removal on a permanent to deal with flying attackers.
I don't know, should I post it here or make a new thread?
It is way different, lol, and I play it multiple times a week with my friends, so it is tuned pretty well.[/size][/color]
Did you ever get around to this? Would like to see it.
With all the mass damage spells/effects in this decklist, it seems Stuffy Doll would fit very well. Skred as well.
At an FNM I was playing against an opponent who took a mulligan to 6. He draws his cards and I couldn’t see exactly but I was pretty sure he took too many. I didn’t call him on it immediately because I had another way to check. He says keep, I go “Swamp, Thoughtsieze.” He immediately says “Ah, crap I took too many cards, I need to go down to 5.” He had 8 in hand.
Also had this same player when I first started playing at FNMs and such used a split second Molten Disaster telling me that it kills all my faeries in play. Which unfortunately at the time I just believed him since I hadn’t seen the card yet and didn’t find out that it doesn’t hit flying creatures until some time later.
Sweet cancel, completely removing the textbox and name and everything looks so cool! Good Job! Is that tourney legal though?
As great looking as it is I doubt any judge at any major tournament would allow it with no card name or casting cost. But if you're just playing casually with friends who cares?! Then it's just an awsome Cancel.
Apologies if their is a seperate thread for questions. Been a long time follower of this thread so like so many people I've taken up trying to do my own alters. Mostly just looking to make my own nice playsets, not trying to sell them or anything.
I'm not unhappy with my first few tries (I'll post pictures for critique when I get home tonight) but I did have one question come up. For some of the painting it seems I really need to go over the same area multiple times (letting it dry in between) to get good coverage. I don't want to just do it really thick and get really bad brush marks, but it seems I have to go over and area multiple, multiple times if I want a good solid color.
Is this just an indication that I need better paint? I'm just using fairly cheap supplies for now as I figured their wasn't much point in blowing a huge amount on the high end stuff until I knew what I was doing a bit. But I think I may of gone a bit too cheap!
*edit* On that same question. If I did go ahead and ordered some nice paints, maybe even the Golden brand that everyone raves about. (damn it's spendy though) Should I just get a set of the basic colors and mix what I need, or are their particular colors that work better for this?
I'm not a fan of running Volcanic Fallout main because I don't like anything that can be a "dead" card off Bloodbraid. (empty opponents board, usually a useless fallout) With Jund Charm you at least have the other two options that might be usefull.
I played Jund Aggro at a 5K and at a PTQ recently and Blightning served me very, very well. The only issue is to watch out for Wilt-Lief Liege who I thankfully did not have dropped on me off a discard in either tournament.
I've ran this at two FNM's now with not very good results. (1-3, and 2-2) However I do really enjoy playing it and am determined to make it work.
For me so far - Condemn has been a fantastic card and I have never been in a situation yet where I thought "I would of won if only for the life I gave him off Condemn." I think you also need to always have Infest or Wrath in sideboard or you will have a hard time with some aggro decks.
I am hoping to borrow some Ajani's from someone tonight to give them a try. I also want to try a build with Mirror Entity in it. I think Mirror Entity + cheap unearth guys has potential for a really nasty swing they didn't see coming after someone clears your board.
Nice job califrag, I really hope this thread gets stickied and filled with tons of usefull information from the people doing those fantastic alterations we all keep seeing. It's been needed for a while.

Pyrohemia and Stuffy for example is crazy fun.

Had a few games with turn 2 Putrid Leech, turn 3 Blightning and turn 4 Bloodbraid Elf into Blightning and it was devestating.

Do you always blank out where you're going to paint with erasers/acetone or do acrylics cover well enough that it's not needed?
