    Yeah, I imagined. It was a well-deserved win and all props to Cyt for that, but lemme rage on it now:

    It's EXTREMELY unfair for town to have an anti-town role with such a heavy posting restriction. Town rely first and foremost on behavioral analysis to sort townies from anti-townies, and when you design an anti-town role with such a heavy PR, you just hand out all it needs to dodge that analysis: all Cyt had to do was hide herself behind her role PR, and voilà: a mod-gifted pass to victory. "Oh are there any discrepancies in what she's saying? Nah let's just disregard it, she's making an enormous effort to communicate, we're prolly not getting it.". It's the obvious conclusion anyone would reach, to see that effort as a proof of township and never question her on it.

    The insult to injury is to make it immune to my role to further enhance he behavioral analysis virtual immunity. And if she's indeed bulletproof, then I see no way she would ever lose the game. Her obvtown status would never ever be questioned by scum, and she would sail to the endgame unhindered.

    Aside that, great game everybody. I had tons of fun and it was the best comeback to Mafia I'd expect from our community Smile (bar the lurking but oh well nothing is perfect).

    To be quite honest, every single time I see an unplayable mythic my wallet smiles a little bit.

    As long as it is unplayable, I'd rather have an uninspired mythic than a format staple, insta 4-of in every deck on its color(s). I'm fine with mythic rarity being Timmy, Johnny and casuals' territory (and I'm a Johnny myself).

    The fact it gives other allies the same ETB ability would have made it a tad broken if it also gave a card.

    Imagine a lategame scenario where you cast this after a, say, Ugin -X wipeboard and you just start chaining ally after ally in a single turn. It would be akin to Cascade in the sense of making a player gain unreal card advantage/tempo out of nowhere.

    Maybe if they took its haste away, then sure, but I think haste makes more sense for RW. It's nowhere near a bad card if allies.dec is indeed a thing.

    I can't seriously fathom how people can be upset about the mulligan rules change. One of the worst possible things to happen in Magic is the feeling that you were robbed the opportunity to play the game simply because you were forced to mull to five on hands without lands, and that has nothing to do with the way your deck is built. It's bad luck. It's variance, and this kind of variance is bad for the game.

    For instance, I'm a big fan of Pascal Maynard, but yesterday he won the GP Buenos Aires after his opponent was forced to mull to 5 in the last game of the finals' match because both his 7 AND 6-card hands had no lands/1 land in it. How does that constitute the great game of Magic a Grand Prix final should be or even a great display of skill? It's simply unfair (and I would say unfair to BOTH players), and this rule seeks to help fixing that. If this rule ends up being implemented, players will at least feel like they have a chance when mulling to five, not simply play knowing that they've probably already lost unless their draws are stellar AND the opponent stumbles.

    And for those citing the Delver example of how to "easily exploit" this rule, please, PLEASE keep forcing mulligans to 6 on the play to "ensure" your Delver flips on turn 2. It won't take long for people to realize how bad of an idea that is after they lose more games than otherwise because Delver wasn't in their 6-card hand.

    Between this, Thoughtseize and the new mardu 2-drop, Wastenot.dec may become a thing in the future...


    It is sad that we are losing Duress and have no Liliana of the Veil though.


    Relax, 2015 fall set is Griselbrand Restored.

    You heard it first here.

    Someone should create the Silver Rage article in Mafiascum Wiki so we could just link it instead of explaining it on every single occurrence :p
