    I do not know if this was mentioned or not but what would happen if you played Quicken then played lauch the fleet targeting some of your opponents creatures during their attack phase?

    Hello, rather than assume that I know what is going on it may be benefical to ask some questions. These questions are rather rudimentary; still, I hope that you take them seriously.
    First, "Does she know -explicitly- why you are mad about this situation?". In other words, Have you explained to her in clear terms as why you feel so strongly about her lying?". If it is the case that she knows then "Does she feel the same way?" ?

    "Do you know why you are mad about this situation?"
    I want to expand on this question some. From what I have gathered from your post is that you are mad becasue she lied to you about her promise "That she would go with you to where you currently reside (I presume) on January 16th." It may (or may not) be useful to ask "What reason am I mad about this?" I assume, that you would not get mad if she went to get pepperoni pizza only to come home with cheese pizza. Obviously, the former needs more thought than the latter.
    I know that it is the case that you feel as though you are the only one in the relationship that is trying. "Can you provide further details on this?"
    It does seem like a game of twenty-one questions, but if you answer them it may provide some insight to us both.

    Thanks,
    Jimmy666.

    I just want to start off and say this deck is ridiculously powerful. I have been testing on cockatrice for about 1 week under the new format and this deck is by far the most consistent of all. I played against everything under the sun. G/W aggro, RDW, Esper control, U/B control, America control, ect. Yes, its cockatrice and not all of the players are the greatest, but believe you me this deck is the bees knees. Here is the list that I have been running.
    DeckMagic OnlineOCTGN2ApprenticeBuy These Cards
    2Detention Sphere
    3Advent of the Wurm
    2Azorius Charm
    4Sphinx's Revelation
    2Supreme Verdict
    60 Cards total



    I realize that this is a pretty streamlined version, however, there are a couple of notes that should be made (IMO). 1: NO BASICS! Yes, I think being greedy and using 24 non-basics makes the deck the most consistent. In this format there is only one card that really hurts us Burning Earth, against those decks I would guess that 5-8 life loss is all that it will do. We should stabilize by that point whether it is via Loxodon Smiter or by a 5/5 wurm token. Just be careful and use the shock lands when you want to play something. Paying 2 life to drop a fatty at the end step is easily justifiable. 2: 4Sphinx's Revelation this card is a swiss army knife. Against control its back breaking to play a creature on your turn then, because of Prophet of Kruphix play this after they wrath. Its a reset button. Against aggro it keeps you afloat with more life and more importantly blockers. Try to get at least 3 cards before using it. 3:Archangel of Thune There is not much to say. I feel that Kalonian Hydra is better. It is something that I was testing for the fun. Plus it has some synergy with Azorius Charm and Sphinx's Revelation. Finally, I would like to talk about Loxodon Smiter. I think that this card is undervalued. The 4 toughness is a really big deal due to the burn that is around. Mainly, Lightning Strike and Anger of the Gods. The icing is the uncounterability. Sometimes they only have a counter..

    I hope that this was somewhat helpful. I plan on expanding on my thought process some more later in the week. Thanks!:nod:

    What are everyone's thoughts about appetite for brains in the side board? It's pretty good against Burning Earth, USA control, Mirror, and possibly junk rites. Being able to take anything that is 4 or greater seems pretty good right now.
