    I haven't been able to connect to mwsplay.net or mwsgames.net recently, always getting a "Could not connect" message. I've also tried connecting to other servers, getting the same message. The last time I remember MWSPlay working properly for me was around a month ago. Anyone know what could be wrong?

    Presenting...
    - Jon Finkel doesn’t need to draw a Wrath of God to clear the board. All creatures die whenever Jon Finkel gets angry.


    Have we forgotten his invitational card submission before Shadowmage Infiltrator?:

    Wrath of Leknif
    1WWU
    Sorcery

    Destroy all creatures. They can't be regenerated. Untap 4 lands you control.

    So, yes, quite literally all creatures die when Jon Finkel gets angry Wink

    Speaking of Hamletback Goliath...

    I had a Hamletback with 5 counters on it, and a random 2/2 (I think Inner Flame Acolyte). I'm at 2 and facing 3 fliers with no flying blockers. He's at 18 with a ton of creatures. I draw, realize I might have a chance of winning, and swing in with both. He blocks the Hamletback with only I creature. I Crib Swap it, adding 1 more counter to my Goliath to make it 12/12 now. I play Fistful of Force (the card I drew) on it, clash and win, and trample over for 16 and 2 more with my 2/2 to kill him exactly.

    I think I definitely would have gone with a WU splash for shriekmaw with this deck. The blue elementals are great, and silvergill douser and the faeries are amazing too, with tidershaper mystic to let your whiskergill swing across even if they have no islands. Green, while nice with double Lignify and Garruk, would reduce consistency too much for the power it brings in.

    While the two blue suspend creatures are awesome, scourge of kher ridges is just an insanely broken bomb who will almost automatically win you the game if he comes down. You have an insane amount of removal, and should be able to deal with almost any threat he puts down (except, say Akroma). The build would look something like this:

    Green (9)
    1 Gemhide Sliver
    1 Thornweald Archer
    1 Thallid Germinator
    1 Citanul Woodreaders
    1 Giant Dustwasp
    1 Durkwood Baloth
    1 Tromp the Domains
    1 Durkwood Tracker
    1 Thallid Shell-Dweller

    RED (10)
    1 Dead/Gone
    1 Rift Bolt
    1 Orcish Cannonade
    1 Basalt Gargoyle
    1 Coal Stoker
    1 Two-headed Sliver
    1 Bonesplitter Sliver
    1 Sedge Sliver
    1 Shivan Meteor
    1 Gathan Raiders
    1 Scourge of Kher Ridges

    BLACK (2)
    1 Death Rattle
    1 Strangling Soot

    ARTIFACT (1)
    1 Prismatic Lens

    LANDS (17)
    7 Mountains
    7 Forests
    2 Swamps
    1 Terramorphic Expanse

    Do you mean altenate art for this art:


    I thought this guy would create, 1/1 flyer tokens, but i guess i was wrong.
    I'm not so excited about this Dragon cycle, but i gues this guy is very strong in limited.

    EDIT> I'd love to see a scan of the card/alternate art.


    Yeah it's an alternate for this art, it's facing towards the right. Can't get a scan of it, it's the store's promo, still wrapped in the plastic. Don't have a camera to take a photo either.

    I saw this at my local store, and since I haven't seen it posted yet...

    Oros, the Avenger
    3WBR
    Legendary Creature - Dragon
    6/6
    Flying
    When Oros, the Avenger deals combat damage to a player, you may pay 2W. If you do, Oros, the Avenger deals 3 damage to all non-white creatures.

    The art is similar to the speculated WBR one (the one with black skin, red jaw and white body, not the golden one), but in a different pose, probably due to the prerelease alternate art.

    EDIT: crappy photo found on auction site.
