    I hate selfish players who think the game should revolve around the one thing that they like.

    This is a joke thread, right?

    Anyway, mirror any of card art and BAM you got a lefty.

    Not another Jace not another Jace not another Jace not another Jace not another Jace not another


    And just how in any universe where the laws of physics are a constant does this mean they're making another jace?

    - Consuming Contract
    - Mass Mummification
    - I really couldn't decide between Soulfeaster's Rising or Revenge of Necromancy. I voted for the latter because it looks cool.
    - I think I chose Demonic Bargain? I can't recall.

  • posted a message on [[M14]] Return of Slivers
    Quote from Goblin Techies
    If an Old Sliver deck fights a new Sliver Deck, the new sliver deck has a higher chance of winning. Simply because Old ones share their abilities while the new ones hoard theirs, thus it becomes a parastic releationship between the two sliver hives.

    Which bugs me the most. Is that no matter how you look at it, unless your deck runs Dormant Sliver or Plague Sliver in order to hinder the enemy hive, your hive of old slivers is going to suffer far more. It should have been a different creature type. Same plane that co-existed alongside slivers but were the more apex predators, survival of the fittest.

    I get the weird feeling that this was intentional design so that a new-sliver deck can stomp out one that uses old-sliver so that less people would use the old ones because the old ones can effectively become obsolete.

    The damage is already done, but I feel its hurt the hive more than its helped it to continue to thrive.


    Why is it bad that the new slivers beat old slivers? They're bigger and more evolved. Really, it makes so much sense. It's all in the past, man.

    The complaing being done is mostly because of the new art direction slivers took....


    They look fine. Easily in line with their evolution schtick. It's been a long time since we've seen hide nor chittering hair of even a sliver of a sliver, and I wouldn't put it past them to adapt to a more advanced form.

    Yes. Complain. And complaining works. If enough people complain about something, wizard's might take different actions in similar cases in the future.


    You don't understand why WotC did this, do you? It's been stated clearly that players read and understand "creatures you control get" much better than "creatures get". There's absolutely no reason to get your undergarments in a sweaty knot.

    Besides, these slivers are strictly better, since they benefit only your slivers. You can whine all you want. Me? I'd take these with a smile on my face.

    Those aren't slivers. Easily could of just named them tribe X and be done with it.


    Your precious slivers just got crapped on by wotc. Are you going to do anything about??? I doubt it.

    Hidden strings is messed up. I had a player Hidden strings twice to untap all his lands to fuse Far//Away for a big blowout. I still won with Act of Treason, though. That card's a beating and a half.

    Zhur Taa Druid is a nice card in limited.

    Carnage Gladiator is a good card as well. He's like a turn 4 Hellhole Flailer with regeneration. He also shuts down the game when your opponent is low on life, punishing them for blocking.

    I thought Skylasher had GG as its mana cost. Well, damn, that kind of makes me unhappy.
