Actually, the last 3 posters reflect particularly well my view...as in if you play casual why do you need a format...just play casual...just play Magic...that was my point...
Also I can understand new players not having every cards from Ice Age...but I don't think degenerate strategy are related to the age of a card rather is power/price...hence my view that casual should not be about format...much more about a $2000 deck against an $100 deck..
Not pointing that any of you are new players...since I actually don't know...and I don't care...but I must that 2013 MTG seems to have become competitive to a point that people doesn't accept to just have fun and lose some games having fun...
You are aware power and price aren't related that closely, pauper is a more powerful format than modern with the average deck cost between 20 and 50 dollars.
And poster above me is correct, losing, while being a part of the game, isn't fun, and one will seek to minimize it, whether it means playing a real deck rather than ones kitchen table deck, or reading articles and watching coverage.
I raffed at jace banned with bazaar, vamp tutor, and sol ring legal.
If you just play casual play whatever you want, my casual games are all control mirrors with like 10 1 mana cantrips 4ish counterspells 3ish wraths 4stp a bunch of draw and then primeval titans getting celestial collonades treetops and gavonys
What the hell even spurred Greater Good's price spike? Is it being played in Modern? I can't imagine a sudden new surge of interest within the EDH crowd.
It's one thing to buy out a card from all the vendors. There has to be demand behind it.
In the case of greater good demand was larger than supply, the card had been slowly creeping up for a long time, it had close to doubled in the past few months pre-spike due to casual appeal.
I think I did read it right, but if you're so convinced that I didn't, then why didn't you try to explain it? Seems like a waste of time.
The question was how can you expect a child to know how to do something that is a learned trait, with no experience with said trait, in this case being empathy.
So I recently won a few bids on ebay for fairly low, italian eureka for 25 (2/13), 2 shackles for 20(2/12), and a foil rector for 46(2/14, and a domri rade for 18(2/13), i won them on the dates and only the domri (the only one that was a "fair" price) has been shipped, my worry isn't so much that I won't get my money back if they don't ship as do they intend to ship at all, how often do sellers do that, I can't seem to find an answer anywhere.

we should make a similar poll for maximum benchpress and determine who the true MTG Renaissance Man is
also, I don't really know anyone on this website in real life so it wood be a complete guess but from what I read a lot of people make really long posts and use vocabulary I never heard of like "obstentibly" and "rapacious" so I dont know
The reason there is no top 1% is because you're a lock sir.
Man, screw John Medina. Glad to see more market manipulation.
In his defense the card was gonna wind up at like 15 in a few months to a year anyways, spellskite went from 7 to 11 today with no manipulation, quite often speculators just hasten the clock.
this, 4 years and 700+ series later I still have a backlog
