Finally! Ordered some cards to finish several of my decks. Spent $55 but got me some black staples I seriously needed. Grave Pact, innocent blood, hymn to tourach, and some skullclamps.
On a side note, I suck at gift giving. My fiance's birthday is soon and I need to figure out a plan B as plan A went down a hill into traffic. Wish me luck...
Again, no offense meant. Just was concerned I was derailing conversation, though I guess while deckbuilding is a facet of the group, it need not be all encompassing. Just kind of the awkward shift to deck talk I guess.
And Purists sounds like a good idea too. Thanks!
Gotcha! Thanks for clearing that up. And you are welcome! I am trying to work on a deck with purists and pestilence. Got the meat of it. I just need the potatoes. Someone here had a deck they showcased in this thread for that combo, but I can't think of who for the life of me.
I didn't mean to say your opinions, I simply meant the general consensus among zelda fans. Most love OoT and MM. I liked OoT and a Link to the Past. I liked Majora's Mask and even tell myself that I will finish it eventually. I just loved Wind Waker more than any other and have beat it more times than any other zelda games collectively (with exception to LttP). Most fans don't seem to care for WW or place it in their top 3. It's my #1. So no offense to your want for MM remake. I can understand your desire!
Majora's Mask was an awkward play for me. I never really beat it due to its complexity (restarting the 3 days if you messed up one sequence of events. I HATE repetitive gameplay for the sake of it) and interest in other things. If it was remade, I would probably make time for it, but I'm not going out of my way to do so.
Despite other opinions, Wind Waker was my favorite zelda game. I can't articulate why. Suffice to say it was a break the series needed to stay fresh without reimagining the whole setup IMO.
I read that the new Zelda is coming out in early 2014, perhaps that's actually the one.
HD wind waker is set to hit late 2013 I believe. Here is a direct link to an IGN comparison using screens from a nintendo event from the actual game and screens from a copy running on Dolphin Emulator on PC. They look beautiful!
Hey BV! Have you seen Nintendo's rereleasing wind waker in HD? I have seen comparisons and they look lovely! I want toto buy this game! I want to see if they do anything special for the release like additional content or support for the wii u controller before I make any decisions.
I want to give us some control over our draws, and many cards fit the bill here. Ponder, Sleight of Hand, Preordain. I think Preordain gives is the best option to get cards we need and to get us 7 of blue. Adding 4. Brainstorm would have been much better was it not restricted. Rings of Brighthearth could slide nicely into here ensuring multiple turns from one Isle activation. I realize we need a lot of blue cards but 1 or 2 of could be worth the add.
I've been running a Bant control deck built to use Zegana to he fullest potential.
I need a little help here: I got hit hard in gym class around the upper abdomen last week, and it still hurts really bad when I run, jump, cough, speak loudly, or take a deep breath. Should I seek medical attention? I think my rib may be broken
It may be severely bruised. I would still see a doctor to make sure. Nothing replaces the opinion of a medical professional. Web md doesn't help either.
I have an idea for a bloodrush deck posted in casual that could use some ideas still if anyone wanta to take a look.
I know we discussed getting this going, and I am sorry for the delay. The thread has lulled and many others aren't as active or are involved in other activities. I figured 'now or never' and posted it up to get some traffic back in here again!

Adding three Magus of the Jar. He's not restricted, he's blue so he counts for the Isle, and he gets us 7 to possibly take multiple turns with no matter our hand size before.
I ran against a friend that wanted to use bloodrush effectively for a aggro/midrange deck. I came up with some ideas and got a very loose list of 60 together. I will share it in the casual forum when I get to my computer soon. Come check it out when it's up and tell me how much you like/hate it and what could be better!
Everyone remember this?? Good!:D
If you don't, this the Kitchen Table Finks Make the Card created by ideas and votes by our very own. This one sure was doozy!
Well, now it's time to see how we can put it to use.
This is the beginning of the KTF GMaD using Prophet's Isle as our base card! For those that do not know, go to this page to learn how to participate. For the rest, we'll just jump to the rules for this one!
Guidelines:
1. Follow the rules.
2. Deck must be Vintage legal.
3. Don't forget to explain your adds/drops.
4. No budget restrictions! With the card being imaginary, so shall the depth of our pockets!
5. Anything pertaining to KTF GMaD must be kept inside spoiler tags so as not to clutter up the clan thread. An indicator showing that your spoiler tags are for KTF GMaD may be used.
Rule 1.1.3 may be invoked by any member joining in adding/removing cards, but will be changed thusly:
a vote must be had and will be open to all members for a period than no more than 24 hours in length once rule 1.1.3 has been invoked. Should it be defeated, the rule is allowed to be invoked again, but not for the same card and only until a vote is successful. Excessive invocation of this rule, despite the outcome, will be the same as it having been used successfully. Excessive invocation of this rule will ultimately be decided by the Fink Tank.
Heh thanks. But I don't take credit. When you are 40 and have small children, you have two choices: exercise or be tired.
I am always tired:-/ Glad you can do something about it though. Good luck! Hope there are no Kenyans running against you. They always make those of us in the western hemisphere look bad even after making it 10+ miles to the finish line.
Did you guys get anything from that storm that hit EC? Looked pretty danged bad.
I have great news! A friend I went to school with and played magic with 6 or so years ago decided to get back in. He stopped by tonight and doubled his collection just from the extras I gave up. Hopefully my playgroup has a new member again! I wouldn't be this excited if not for the fact that there hasn't been more than 2 of us for about 5 years now.
Kids and work and life in general will do that though. Important things first, then fun.
Well I am not sick like everyone else, just stuffed up and sneezing and my head feels like I should be making a pass over an arena of some sort like a blimp. I really wanna be home. We got 60 degree farenheit weather yesterday. Today? Upper 20s. Ugh!
Good news is I should get my taxes next week. Getting back more than I thought so I am compiling a list of all cards I need for decks and ordering them at once. I have several decks that need finishing and have been at the wayside for months. No more!
Good luck to everyone being hit by the blizzard on the east coast! Keep us posted when you can and let us know you are doing ok.
Hail there fellow KTFers! Just wanted to see what everyone is up to! Me, I'm working right now trying to formulate how to use unburial rites casually without looking at frites lists and molten psyche in an owling mine type shell. It seems a game winner if it hits correctly. All these leftover multiples of cards from recent years have to have some use, right? Right???

Gigaguess, why the LOL in your post following mine? Confused by your intent on that. Pm me if need be.
As a fan of the series, I should have played this one long ago. I haven't though. I am almost ashamed to admit it...
Hedron-field purists may help too. Personal Sanctuary is great by itself though.
