Sep 8, 2015Minowara posted a message on The Running Tally of Current Sets for September 4, 2015I liked the old colors. It's also presumptuous to think that there will be a Modern Masters 2016 when the trend appears to be every other year.Posted in: Articles

Aug 11, 2015Minowara posted a message on The Running Tally of Current Sets for August 10, 2015What do you mean that Dragons is 'Not the short term nor the long term investment.' Dragons rotates at the same time as Origins, so wouldn't those both still be the long term currently? Or if you are counting BFZ, would neither be the long term?Posted in: Articles

Is my LGS just trying to make more, or did wizards really up the price of booster boxes to stores? (again, this would be starting in November of last year).
To those of you who feel good about Rally -- what makes you feel that way? I got clobbered both games, and they weren't even close. Reflector Mage completely negated Kalitas, and they were able to just beat me down without even having to worry about Rally the Ancestors. Coco was throwing out more creatures than I could deal with, and a lot faster than us. It felt like a 10/90 matchup even post board. They have easy answers to Kalitas and we have 3 Moonlights vs their 8 coco / rally.
I will happily say that Oath of Gideon T3 into T4 Sorin won every game that it occurred on. T5 Sorin Emblem is virtually unbeatable.
I am also worried that, similar to Abzan and Anafenza, the inclusion of Reflector Mage into 4 color rally makes Kalitas not great. You can't count on creatures to remove the graveyard anymore.
Can you do that? If so, that's pretty powerful, and unexpected.
Recruiter
Duplicant
Solemn Simulacrum
Steel Hellkite (not ETB but otherwise good)
Myr Battlesphere
Blightsteel Colossus (not ETB but otherwise good too)
It also works well with Clock of Omens to untap and use some tap guys (like Metalworker), and also it supports Kuldotha Forgemaster.
It's not amazingly powerful like in some decks, but that's 6 creatures that it would make very powerful.
Also, any thoughts to Magus of the Wheel and Fiery Confluence? Fiery Confluence works very nicely with a number of cards in our deck for artifact destruction.
AK Tilted is Jarvis Yu?
Sorry to hear about you coming in just short! What decklist are you running these days? (I think you're one of the few still playing RUG and I was wanting to move back to it)
This is incorrect. Sorry. Most sets go out of print near the end of their time in standard, not at the end. I wouldn't be surprised if Khans is out of print or going out of print soon. I would also argue that Dragons is a better set right now to take as prize packs.
