    In EDH news, I finally finished my Mishra deck! It's less powerful than I would like it to be, but that should get fixed soon. I also was surprised to find out that I had my Newzuri deck complete as well (I have just been jamming in a bunch of cards I thought would go in the deck well), so that's good.


    Been working on assembling an Ertai, the Corrupted list. Mostly looking for win cons I'm interested in and going to adjust around those. I sent in a load of cards to SCG and have about 800$ in store credit for it, so I'm pimping a lot of it for now.

    Still have tons of bulk to get rid of before my move, but planning to keep a solid 4-5 decks around, one being this EDH list.

    The site as a whole seems a lot less alive. I know I quit visiting pretty quick after the revamp/switch to Curse.

    D'aww. Congrats, man!

    Apparently I am still the Clan Rep. That should probably not be the case...

    Svogithyr, are you... Oceanos? I am so confused.



    I...I thought I was...

    It definitely says "Welcome, Oceanos!" at the top of the page, and I can view my profile/etc. just fine. What the H-E-C-K has happened here?

    --

    As far as D&D, never played 4th, haven't bothered looking into 5th. All my money is into 3.5, and I love it. Most people around these parts that I know and play play 3.5, so no sense wasting money on more giant books. Maybe if I steal some PDFs I'll look at 5.

    --

    This is Oceanos. I do not know why I am also Not-Oceanos at the same time.


    Edit: AH! Now it says Oceanos and my avatar is back...dafuq

    I've always been more of a Johnny-Vorthos.

    AD Fighters/Assassins mid are always a good role to learn, or at least be familiar with for both countering and when you are countered. I've been trying to practice more, but my main role is support, and I've been practicing my ADCs a bit lately. Love me some Graves/Ezreal. Need to get the other 4 icons from Team Builder, but to many normal games makes me extremely sloppy.

    I feel that I could make it to Plat had I the time to play, but a couple games each week won't get me there fast enough without playing flawlessly.

    Name is "Swenka" on there if anyone wants to add me. I know I had a few people before, but I rarely get a chance to play regularly, and I forgot to add notes to any clannies that I've added, so remembering who is who is difficult. I also made a player.me profile, but the website seems shaky right now with a big influx of users, so I haven't had a chance to actually set up my info.
    Shameless invite URL plug: player.me/?invite=swenka

    Adventureland was amazing. Definitely the best day I've had in awhile. I really needed it.

    A few weeks before I get my actual vacation. 8 days off to road trip from Iowa to Portland, Oregon. Gonna be good times with my closest friends. So, I'll probably hate them after the trip.

    What's the word on Super Smash Bros 3DS? I loved Melee, never played Brawl. This will be the game to dust off my 3DS, though I've been considering getting back into the Pokemon Y thing.

    Going back to school this semester. Nothing fancy, but it's time I got my ass in gear to at least be in a position to advance. Need to raise my GPA and do that whole "applying myself" deal. Hmph.

    Edit: Still never figured out how to fix my 3 title situation...

    Why is the like button under the profile and not at the bottom of the post? Seems like an odd place, let alone, a really odd feature to begin with.

    Had my first mini-vacation in, like, 6 years. Had a lot of fun at Adventureland with the girl. Not a whole let else to report...

    So, I chose the gimped class in Wildstar. I love my Esper, but we do so little damage. Weird how that is, being an immobile DPS in a very mobile game. My hope is they change us to essentially Warlocks, but that's probably me just wanting to play my Warlock from pre-Cataclysm WoW in a new game.

    Hello again. I am sorry for still not being around much, honestly I barely play MtG anymore, which makes me sad, but it also has a reason, my wallet+MtG=-$

    @Oceanos, I will be getting wildstar when I have money, but until then sadly I can't do much about you being alone ._.


    One of those variables must be negative, to reach -$. I suggest trying to remove wallet from the equation.

    And I hope you enjoy it! The more people who play and talk about it, the better!

    I'm pretty close to jumping to another server. The only kind-of friend I know playing is on a PvE server and is Dominion >_>
    Which saddens me greatly.

    Just head to the Mafia subforum and sign up. It will be from one account, but I'm not sure if we need to disclose all members that will be using it or not. Can't hurt at any rate.

    Hmm, makes sense.

    Still playing Wildstar. Have yet to actually convert any friends into it though, so we'll see how long it lasts. It's a ton of fun, but playing alone is kinda lame.

    Anyone interested in Clan Mafia, go to the Mafia subforum to sign up!
    I have been informed
    We will be playing with hydra accounts, meaning that any number of your clan members can participate.
    . So...if that means anything to you. I certainly know it is gibberish to me.

    Fancy. Well good luck on the moving and event!

    Still having the hardest time sticking to one decklist. I have so many little ideas here and there about stuff to play, in addition to never actually playing as much as I would like, that I always build up, tear down, and resort my lists constantly.

    I managed to make a silly 60-card highlander for pick-up games, but other than that, saving money and working a lot.

    That argument delayed me getting into Magic by about 5 years, once I hit middle school and had a little bit of income for pre-cons. Of course, that attitude carried to many other things I was interested in, so I didn't really have any hobbies except for sports my dad approved of. Needless to say, my early passions for video games and wanting to make them weren't supported either.

    Thankfully, I have a stable full-time job now that allows me the disposable income for Magic and the time to work towards that dream of game design now.

    Anything that fits the general theme of the deck, or "feels right."

    That said, Unglued Lands are my favorites, but I haven't finished a collection of those, as I am debating the cost of going full foil or regular. I'm working on getting Snow-covered lands in foil as well.


    Edit: Unglued, not Unhinged, though those are pretty smexy too.
