Cube Pack Wars! everyone take 15 random cards out of the cube face down, shuffle it with 15 lands (3 of each color) and play
This is useful and fun as a filler game (waiting a tourney / draft) because you can play it straight away, aaand because you pick the cards face down every cards is surprising
Even though I'm not really excited of M13 set for many reasons, but I have to admit, yesterday pre-release got some interesting stories, there are wins by mills, 2 person got jace, memory adept (1 foil), and 1 got sands of delirium, and they all have win by milling out.
Someone ultimated his nicol bolas, someone decked all his lands w/ boundless realms, and my story is interesting also
I scooped to my opponent crazy board state, he got these on his battlefield as his engine: elderscale wurm , roaring primadox, elvish visionary, healer of the pride, rhox faithmender, and a lot of dorks, so he basically bounce his visionary with primadox every turn, cast it again and draw card, while gaining 4 life because of the healer and faithmender interaction, and surely along the way he cast a lot more creatures, I only got 2 removals in my deck and I draw murder when its too late, I scooped after he reached 59 life and his creatures can go alpha on me
I never thought that kind of interaction would happen in a sealed deck so kudos for wizard for making this set, at least, interesting for limited play
not exactly an exciting card, even if they make it an uncommon, it seems redundant with the new red equipment thing that gives haste for 1.
And I don't even think this deserve a slot in an aggro or mid range deck, it literally does nothing when your board is empty, a burn spell or a creature is more appropriate
well, you could learn EDH history from http://mtgcommander.net site, this site used to be called EDH before WOTC baptized it into commander and make it their official "casual" format, the site is run by Sheldon Menery and friends
And from this site you could also find links regarding EDH history, well at least in USA
I'm guessing that since the big change in OP, Helen has took some serious critics, maybe sent to her email by us, who put great concern in the recent change. I'm guessing she is stressing out. Now WOTC as her employer, want to assure her that they are on her back no matter what, that if someone respond too far they will take strong measure to "protect" her.
Now in this case, Lucas, suffers. No matter it's in a personal forum, it's a bad joke, bad move, bad timing in these sensitive times for WOTC. They will retaliate. They implicitly suggest us, these changes is here to stay, we backed and believe in Helen (and others involved), and if you think otherwise, please do it in a most appropriate way, we'll listen. If not, well, you see how we take things seriously
Let say i have already more than 3 artifacts on the battlefield, then i cast one mox opal and tap it for mana, then i cast another mox opal, do I have the chance to tap the 2nd mox opal for mana before both go into the graveyard because the legendary state-based effect??
yup, i use the sewer nemesis solely in my cube... the only place that the card could make an impact...
its too slow on EDH and definitely wont see play in any classic format
I think it would be Time Warp, it fits the core set-esque type of card, simple, powerful, flavorful. If it isn't Time warp then it's going to be another "simple' card that would fit in a core set.
I'm betting FOW & Stifle won't be in any core set anytime soon, if ever, the text is too complicated for a core set..
Maybe WOTC is saving the underused tribes for future set, we see vampire here and there years ago and now they established it as a legit tribe to play, even though they are starting to stretch the vampire too thin and Innistrad hasn't come out yet, sigh, I'm getting quite bored with it...
but hey, i'm quite optimistic in the future sets they will explore other tribes that already a "staple" in fantasy setting like orc, dwarf, minotaur, centaur, these guys really know how to get our excitement back when we thought everything is getting quite stale
well, maybe because the "vorthos" aspect in the magic psychographic consumer is not that high, so they wont put EXTRA attention in the flavor text, because hey gameplay-wise its not relevant at all and mainly its not why people play the game and buy the product... sometime they came up w/ good flavor text, sometime they don't, and sometime they don't put flavor text at all....

the description tells it as a new digital card game from MtG creator (WOTC? Hasbro? someone from RnD??) and Ascension...
Comments anyone?
