Anyways, the first post has been somewhat updated. There are three people who need to decide whom they want to apprentice other, unless you really want to be assigned at random.
Surging Chaos, I am very curious as to what field you wish to be High Mage of. I also trust none of the new Acolytes mind their new positions?

Been busy the past couple of days, went to the Archenemy release, and I think over-all it's fun. It's not too great with precon decks, but we started playing EDH where we gave everyone an Archenemy deck and it was chaotic and fun. I really enjoyed it.
As the former Apprentice of Time Manipulation, I think i'm the go-to person for this subject, but unfortunately I never paid attention during lessons, so I'd just have to say that you simply need to look in AI's basement.
I haven't the slightest clue what you're talking about.
Has someone already PMed our Mafia list to rianalnn or do I have to do that as the clan rep even though I'm not participating? *feels stupid for saying this*
I was going to wait until we got a finalized list, but by now that's probably everyone who's going to be in on it.
You can PM him or I will when I send out the QT link.
Hey guys
Sorry about the absence, but you should all know that this is officially my first post from my first house
*Pleased*.
The moving was pretty chaotic, but I've finally a casa del Jordan that exists ^_^.

I'm of the opinion that mass LD is fine as long as the person who does it ends the game quickly. When someone drops an Obliterate just to reset the game (i.e., they're not even in danger of losing), that is nothing short of obnoxious.
Though I've been using more "fair" stuff like Ruination and a bunch of other off-the-map cards to switch things up.
I only ever drop an appoc when I am about to die and am feeling vindictive, at any other time it is just a threat to hang over people.

Martyrdom Goblin cannot be blocked except by three or more creatures.
When this creature becomes blocked, destroy it and all creatures blocking it.
3/2
The card has a white adjective in its name and abilities that are a weird blend of white, red, and black. Red doesn't typically get effects that specifically destroy creatures, preferring to use damage instead. It's basically a five-mana unblockable hasty 3-power dude and thus is fairly similar to Covert Operative, though it has the downside of being very mediocre against Eldrazi Spawn.
Its abilities both say the same thing, which is "Don't block me." I think it would be a better design as a Goblin Fire Fiend that blew up the blocking creature.

~ must be blocked if able.

Funny story: I used to think the "must be blocked" ability was the same as Lure...it's not. Getting owned once at the Eventide PR was enough to teach me that lesson.
Sorry I havn't been posting much lately guys, I'm pretty busy now, so I'll be gone all weekend, and the week after that. I'll remind you guys when it gets closer, but I'll be gone for a bit...
What does everyone think of the world cup? Pretty crazy huh. With France pretty much quitting soccer, the Italians are out, Spain might have an upset, and best of all...
ENGLAND WON A GAME!!!
What are everyone else's thoughts?
EDIT: Biggest news, Mana Leak is confirmed as back. Blue is looking mighty good now...
Also, an Ophidian style card has been reprinted...
I really need to watch more of the World Cup lol. I did get to see the end of the US/Algeria game though; that was seriously intense and amazing.
As for Mana Leak, I have a grim, grim feeling that Jace is going to spike up to $100.
The Ophidian card is actually waaaaaay better than Ophidian itself. It's now in a relevant creature type and it still damages your opponent when you draw the card.

I watched a bit of the Denmark/Japan game and it was pretty good. When Japan scored their third goal the players just started beaming, which is funny because Japanese people smiling in general is amusing.

Well, Forbid's never seeing the light of day again, so it's a safe bet that Scroll Thief won't be breaking any metagames any time soon. Creatures have been getting better while noncreature (nonplaneswalker) spells have been getting worse. This is just a continuation of that trend.
Mana Leak is back? OH DAMN. Mono blue control is beast now. Just counter all of their ☺☺☺☺ and spreading seas their lands and then throw down a Sphinx of Jwar Isle. So awesome.
I'm going to have to get my play set of Jace now... or not play blue, which is my favorite color...
Oh well.
The Titan cycle is looking pretty nice as well- Sun Titan, Inferno Titan, cost 6, have to do with 3s

Hows things going on with you man? Haven't heard from you in a little while.
Also, I am happy with where I am (...under AI :unibrow:).

There is no cage in my basement with Zazirik's name on it.
I watched Toy Story 3 and ate a ton of sushi last night. A good end to a crappy weekend.
Can I be under Clem and Joboman as an Apprentice of Destruction? That sounds fun...

@ joboman: It's a conditional pseudo-board wipe that your opponent has to walk right into.
@ Skizzik_NZ: Or someone can just choose not to block even when they have three creatures out.
Same old, same old. Blowing things up and blaming it on the Gruul.
Congratulations! Are you living by yourself or do you have people living with you?

Same here, though I probably won't return to playing standard until I can build a viable deck that doesn't cost +$400.
