Feb 22, 2016Zanzabar21 posted a message on Off Topic: Making a Magic MovieI would be happy with just the story of a certain block. Take Theroes for example. Elspeth comes to a strange new land, discovers that this land is filled with power because the gods say there is a power. Indtroduce the bad guy as someone who is power hunger and if he can become a god then he can have all the power of this land. Then Elspeth sets out to fight Xenegos, upon finding him she learns that it is too late and that he has obtained the power of a god, taking his place in the pantheon. Then Elpeth kills Xenegos, and then the leader of the pantheon kills Elspeth because she killed a god. End of movie. Lots of plot twists, action, fantasy, and magic lore. No need for any of the mana or spells or artifacts. Did the Lord of the Rings ever explain where the hell Gandalf was, why he has power, or how he knows where to go and what to do? No, they just introduce him as a wizard and we can contrive the rest by ourselves. Elpeth is a planeswalker, end of explanation.Posted in: Articles

Couple changes I would make to the removal base as well. Since we are playing with Zulaport Cutthroat I would want to cut PTE in favor of Terminate or Dismember, and I would definitely play 4 lightning bolt.
Since the deck isn't really reliant on the graveyard, you can afford to play a couple RIP in the sideboard. You board out Rally and cutthroat and the sacrifice will still have their advantages without the cutthroat. Doomed traveler gets a bit worse, but it can still carry a sword and be effective as anything else.
I would like to see a Sword of War and Peace instead of the Fire and Ice. I think protection from white is more relevant than protection from blue, the lifegain helps, and it is a quicker clock.
Those are just some of my thoughts on the deck. I think I will give it a try sometime.
I have this deck built online but I think with my recent acquisition of two copies of collected company in paper I will finish this deck in paper. Give me a break some weeks from the ancestral vision I have been casting lately
Polluted Delta shoulda got them at 5 dollars during Khans block. But I feel ya on buying AV. That is going to be costly, I hope they go down a bit.
