wow guys. Go look at that thread in the Rumor Mill. There's this guy:
5GG
Whenever this is put into a graveyard from play you may search your library for any number of creatures with a total power of 6 and put them into play....
6/6
Uh.... If that is the real version then that guy is totally the best card in this set.
Description: Mystery and Unpredictability
This deck is built on sheer strength with a twist in the sideboard.
Unlike most decks, this is uniquely modal.
Either small number large hit or swarm and break through, both in a very balanced form.
The key idea behind this is to have the opponent guessing of its strength
instead of it being readily apparent, hence Overrun and not Kamahl, Fist of Krosa.

I KNOW!!! I made a thread in new cards discussion to talk about how frigging broken it is. Kiki-jiki+this guy=fun times....
I had a feeling Rev was gonna go :symb::symr:. Especially with his hatred for blue and his love of black. Can't get that any more together than Urza's Rage and Blazing Specter.
Well I believe we're ALMOST covered for all the decks right? I believe only blue has to submit and MAYBE (big maybe) blobman has to re-submit since his block was already taken?
Lastly, Illuvatar, blobman, and Moxman need friend votes right?
* Crimson Avatar votes yea for all.
Quick Edit: Rev - Just realized. No Phyrexian Arena? Hmm - maybe not enough spots but I thought maybe it was worth consideration.
Heya Crims, yeah Arena should be in there, maybe I'll take out 1 Rage, 1 Void, and 1 something else, and add 3 Arenas.... I forgot about the power of draw !!
Nof as for friends....I have an open policy for friends..anyone who does not Flame or Spam, or gets controversila against other members, is welcome by me as a friend!!...that said Illuvatar, blobman, and Moxman get my votes too
Err..Crims, mind explaining to me how to download the images for MWS ?? Please ??

[thread=52196][Alliance of Rogue Deckers!][/thread][My Cube List]
sorry for the non-activity lately. i've been playing ffxi for a while, trying to catch up with some friends so i can do stuff with them in-game. can't wait to experiment with Dissention though; some rediculous cards in there so far.
you're right about my deck guys, but i only need to hit 4 lands minimum. if only there were fetchlands in odyssey... i guess i could afford to cut a few creatures, but i really need at least 45 creatures in the deck to really win (by traumatizing myself). i don't really think you were playing my deck correctly. it really doesn't need to attack unless absolutely necessary. what i do with the mortal combat deck is just play a bunch of 1/1's to chump. otherwise, i just sac them or something to get them into the graveyard. i was considering playing sickening dreams in that deck just in case i had a huge amount of creatures and would win the next turn. but it moved to the sideboard... i'm really looking foreward to playing this tournament. can't wait to punch a few faces! (9o_o)9
Thank goodness the weekend is here again so i dont have to go to clinicals or classes and I can wake up when i want for a couple of days at least. Here is a deck that i have had for awhile its my casual uw control and i find it to be alot of fun in my opinion.
Phyrexian, I had to make a bunch of cuts. I didn't want crappy slivers in my awesome sliver deck.
Crystalline is awesome, but I couldn't get him in there. I'd also be able to use Disenchant ... meh.
Still addicted to GW.

my mouth is full of winsome lies -
and eyes are full of death besides
but luckily the soul is wise -
it sees beyond my blindness and
forced failure makes a better guise,
so as i come again alive,
it feels like life's a decent plan

Yikes!!! My apologies, of course I want him here...I just didnt see his post!!!
ugh I haaaaaaaaaate playing T2! I've been playing that Blue Red White Angel Weirding deck (without counters) and I'm beginning to understand why I don't like magic outside of limited. I hate playing the same games over and over again.
I don't think I post enough in here so I figure it's time I step down from my position as a council member. I'm sure you guys won't mind that heh. Time to start weaning myself of magic anyways. It's been fun!
Hey Blue, why resign your position?? you've been a good Council Member, so personally I'd preffer if you didnt quit, however I will respect whichever decision you come to in the end.
Errr...BweeBwee...Battle of users?? What is that ???
@Phyrexian: Hey, I work at a Magic and D&D store kind of game store. There are no electronic games here.
And for the best part about living here in the Seattle area. First, I will set the stage. In the city of Redmond (about 20 minutes east of Seattle) we have 3 different game stores all within walking distance of each other. One is a very small chain, like 2 or 3 stores maybe, and caters to more of a younger group of people. They mostly have board games, puzzels and chess boards, some D&D and some Magic, and a bit of some other stuff. Then there is the store I work at which is a mom and pop owned store. We cater to an older audience with our choice of games. We also have a wide selection of RPGs and the most popular minitures games (WHF, WH40K, FoW and WM, soon to add Hordes). We also hold Friday Night magic here with great success, cater to role play groups that need a place to play and hold various minitures tournaments throughout the month. We also kinda have all the Flames of War (FoW) players and a good chunk of the Warmachine players, if not all of them. The last store is the farthest away in distance from the other 2. This store has been a soap opera. It first started out at Games and Gizmos, they went under then became WizKids (yes, the company) and then they were bought out and are now Genesis Games and Gizmos (G3). They cater to everyone, or at least try to. They carry games for all ages, try to hold Friday Night Magic and sell all the mentioned games earlier. They also cater to the WH crowd more than us. I haven't been down there is a long time, but from what I have been told, their employees aren't the greatest and that store never really felt inviting to me.
So this weekend is the prerelease tournament for Dissencion and the release tournament for a brand new game from the Privateer Press (PP) company called Hordes. It is a minitures game that is based off of Warmachine (WM). My store is holding a rather large tournament for this release and we are very excited. From what I have been told, my boss worked with the press gangers (people that volunteer for PP to run tournies and other events) to get this thing going. They got a store in Olympia to run a tourny on Sun instead of Sat so that we don't take people away from either tourny and everything is all happy and such. Well, from what I have been told recently, G3 is holding a Hordes tournament on that same day. Now normally this wouldn't be a problem and I think we would win out in this situation. But that's not the big problem, well, for them. They are also going to be hosting the Seattle area's Prerelease tournament for Dissencion. Yeah, so they are hoping to run a 500 person tournament and another, much smaller mind you, tournament at the same time and a space, that from the looks of it has a max capacity of like 200, maybe 300 if they are lucky. And to top it off, I think I heard that Wizards doesn't like it when a tournament like this is held in a game store, not like the room next door that they are providing, but the store itself. So... how does this work out?
I dunno I just feel bad that I don't have much to say ya know? But I guess I don't have to resign.
Oh and card of the week. I wanted to change it up a little. I'm going to take a Type 2 card and then I want you guys to evaluate the card for Standard, Extended, Legacy, Vintage, and any other janky format.
In Standard perhaps there's a use for it but I think this little gem has uses that no one is thinking about. There's definately a reason they made this card and I want to exploit it in any format that it can be exploited. What do you guys think of this card?
And As a secondary to that, here's a card that's in standard and has a built in combo but for some reason doesn't see any play. The Unspeakable. I was trying to think of a deck for it and basically came up with Unspeakable Gifts. To basically get two of the three combo pieces along with something else. We do have Dizzy Spell, Drift of Phantasms, and Muddle the Mixture in T2 so it's possible to transmute for each piece of the Unspeakable puzzle. Gifts also lets you tutor for the pieces. Do you think it's possible to make a blue control deck that uses and Protects the Unspeakable? Will it be necessary to have a way to shuffle the unspeakable back into your library? Thoughts?
There's my ashes of the fallen deck, extended legal. The main win conditions are a giant soulless one, or mortal combat. Seeker of skybreak and mesmeric orb combine for infinite mill on yourself, so making mortal combat lethal isn't hard, and it also makes your soulless ones giant when you have an ashes out.
Hey reaper, i see you a lot around the t2 DFC forums (with a lot of one or two line posts, i might add, you should really write more!). I believe one has to submit a deck for evaluation to qualify for clan membership.
Hello everyone, I can't believe that my spring semester is almost over for the x-ray program at school about three more weeks left yay.
As for magic I have been working on yet another deck for legacy and it has done pretty well against threshold gro variants, landstill, goblins, and combo decks like high tide solidarity and tendril storm decks. I will try to post the deck and an explanation about the deck in a couple of days when im not too busy with school.

Meanwhile in the event I decide to become a member I have provided a decklist.
