Im brewing a list that maindecks loxodon smiters and obstinate baloths, but maybe I could remove the baloths for a high impact / high threat 3 drops. Smiter is a real beater at 4/4 for 3. Other options include kitchen finks, but Im kind of drawing a blank for high impact three drops. Any suggestions?

I dictate what I play in Magic based off of my favorite color, which is white. I just wont play a deck without white in it. What kind of decks am I looking at?

How far has this spread from the East coast?

North and South Carolina. Georgia as well allegedly. Also sellers of fakes spotted on Tennessee and North Carolina ebay accounts.

Do you want a Modern deck? Or just a beginner-friendly deck? If you want a Modern deck then you are in the right place, although I suggest you make that explicit in your post. But if you just wanted an easy deck for her to run, regardless of format legality, you'd probably get a lot more help in the Casual forum. Let me know which forum you think this belongs in and I can keep it/move it as needed.

Modern deck. I only play modern and its got a bigger card pool that Standard has. If it needs to be moved by all means, whatever gets me the most help.

Some small errors that are pretty obvious.. Is this a second batch or something? It's missing some of the errors found on the imgur link in the OP.

Its probably all the same batch man to be honest. Who knows.

New fake spotted from a guy in Tennessee

Looking to teach my wife how to play magic now that she has agreed to try to learn.

Im thinking of starting her off on some sort of soldier or angel mono white tribal beat downs.

Not looking to break the bank, can anyone just show me some decent simple tribal brews like this? Id prefer mono white.

Thanks guys

Decklists would preferably be modern.

Quote from Qatol

Agreed. And it's not just Modern. Cards in *Standard* have such outrageous prices that even they are attractive to counterfeitters.

Speaking of cards in standard a new fake spotted. Same facebook group as the fake gisela photo I scraped

I spoke with this sales "rep" over skype

They will let some people buy a 200 dollar order that is x4 of every card posted above. Youll notice a lack of JTMS or Jitte on the list. However, I'd just assume anyone who is new to your local playgroup with these cards probably own fakes. I mean we've got people in over a dozen states with fakes right now, someone posted a fake liliana they got from SCG on reddit.

The sales rep said hes had about 450 people message him in the last 24 hours in regards to wanting orders, they already have a backlog now. More fakes inbound.

Unless you have a good reason for it (just wanting the judge to check the opponent's cards isn't one) you'll get penalties very quickly.

Fakes have been distributed to almost a dozen states. Yes I have a good reason right now. **** who knows at the next big GP. ****ing teens lack morals in America, you better believe theyll buy knock offs.

All I know is at the next GP im at im calling a judge over for every match im in. ESPECIALLY if its against a young non-adult. Every game every time. Card checks. Fake lilis and goys, probably fake cards "altered" all of it. The game is as good as dead now.

Fake Lilianas found in a state that is not North Carolina or California

Its ****ing OVER
