Zach jesse was also a victim of actual Magic Rules Violation, harrassed by another player. So there is that and there isn't any clauses I have found that says they can ban anyone for any reason. There may be other legal ramifications at work to prevent a person from entering the contests. Check with a lawyer, not a DCI judge.
I don't care if a porn star plays the game. I care if they have knowledge that gains them an advantage in gameplay or secondary market manipulation. Cosplayers being shown artwork is okay... but not pro tour players being allowed to review cards.

michaelangelo posted a message on StarCityGames Having Legacy/Vintage Sale?I was excited to see that they were having an eternal sale but became disappointed after seeing that nearly every one of the cards on sale was a foil, Alpha edition staple, or other some other "pimp" card.Posted in: The Rumor Mill -

FTFY.Quote from Medea »Quote from FawkesZD »So I'm looking at this as my entry point into legacy (moving here from modern) and have some questions:
-In modern, I've played a BW version of D&T to a fair amount of success. Would something like that be viable here? What kind of color splashes have you guys seen/played? And mostly, Why aren't color splashes more common in this deck?
-Leonin Arbiter and Aven Mindcensor do some real work in modern. I understand that we're not forced to play Path to Exile or Ghost Quarter here, but stopping them from fetching/tutoring still seems really good. Do these really not warrant a place here?
-Karakas is going to be the biggest barrier to entry for me with this deck. Do I play the deck with Plains in it's place for now or could other utility lands fill the gap better?
Splashing any color is possible. In short, the monowhite version is the mostbalanced and consistentplayed
The "consistency" thing is just a meme at thing point. -

Splashing any color is possible. In short, the monowhite version is the most balanced and consistent, but splashing can be appropriate for certain metagames or to improve certain matchups. If you do a little searching in this thread, you can find more in-depth answers to that question.
There was a version of D&T with Arbiter and Mindcensor that top 8'd the Bazaar of Moxen a year or two ago. That's a good starting place if you want to play with those cards. -

Dontrike posted a message on No Modern Masters, Exceptional MastersPosted in: Rumor Mill ArchiveQuote from slantdeyevision »Everyone wants to play eternal formats, these special sets won't completely get you there. You will have to either trade up or spend money. It takes time and patience if you don't have the disposable income.... I don't understand why everyone complains about the supplemental sets not being enough to bridge the gap, it will never be enough.... Build one std deck and trade the rest away for Eternal Staples..... That's what I did and over years of playing magic I got what i needed.
I have not sympathy of whiners, sorry... Your not trying hard enough.
You don't find it a bit odd it takes years to get into a part of the game? That probably shouldn't be a thing. The cards will still have value, but for some reason those that play the format treat it like it is a country club, which is just strange. Also Standard decks right now are like cheap Legacy decks, so skip the middle man and just go straight to Legacy.
You are right though, any set won't perfectly get you into any format, but right now they are offering zero sets for Legacy/Vintage and those two formats have been dying slowly for a long time because of it, at the very least this will allow those sets to thrive a bit with new life being injected into it. -
