MTG Salvation

...and did I just say "Blarg Honk"? Wow, I haven't said that in a LONG time.

I would not be shocked at all to see a Millfolk top8 somewhere. The strategy is valid and works, it's just that I'm not sure how it wins the Red Aggro matchup that seems to be so favored in the metagame at the moment. It's like R/G Ramp wrecks Merfolk and Faeries, but everything else runs it over most of the time.

blarg honk.

I hired two people a while back to help but they are *too busy* nowadays... Click the link in my sig and read. If you are still interested, PM me.

I thought you said constructs and weirdos for a second there.

Ugh... I need to wake up.


Well, I'm not sure if I could help but if you need someone to help you with your block/set/whatever you seem to be working on right now, I'll glad to help. I always had my own daydreams of making my own block but I don't think I'm ready for that challenge yet.

Well i sorta know how you feel on having so many good ideas and not being able to use them all in time.
I myself have that problem which is why I have my set files the way they are...
I have a "test" set where every new card i create starts it gets tweaked noted with version #s and I keep any flavor, theme, and story idea in the card notes box.
I then have a "Finished card" set where all cards go when I have stopped working with them. From this set i have to opportunity to then take any combination of the finished cards and throw them in a set file.
Should a set need specific cards later down the road I start making them in the test set.

The system I run works really well for me and even lets me keep track of which cards i have put into which sets.

As much as I hate tribal, a tribal set with unique tribes sounds mildly entertaining. Perhaps constructs and weirds.

Currently I'm losing interest in my block I have a really good idea for making a block based around mill. I want to see how much mill has to be pushed to be a viable strategy and flavorwise I was going to make it refer to time travel. A mechanic that has creatures deal damage in the form of milling. Mill spells similar to burn spells. Triggered/activated abilities that include milling. Loxodon Hierarch of Mill: When this creature comes into play, put up to 6 cards in your graveyard on the bottom of your library. Milltrips instead of cantrips.


I know it may sound stupid, but I'm just interested in seeing more than 1 let alone even 1 mill deck do good on the tourney scene. Wouldn't you crap yourself if there were TWO different mill archetypes in the finals of a Pro Tour? I know I'd **** bricks.

I would have to say: Stay focused on your main objective for that block is. Anything that fits in with the main theme, or at least can be tied in indirectly, perhaps will be ok.
