Alrighty. This is actually the first draft i have ever recorded although I have drafted quite a bit before. I felt I did specially poor on this draft and wanted to get some thoughts on where i went wrong. I always tend to over think things when i p1p1 stuff like garruk. I don't know why, but i do.

Pack #2 was so heavy with red signals that i could not ignore it but i didn't end up solidifying my choice of colors for a while as you all can see by my erratic pics.
not sure if this is what was meant by mana stones but i would be adding 3/4 Firewild Borderpost to give your deck an edge. otherwise, if they draw mana heavy and you get none, you are going to end up very stuck.
Ok, my OP was clearly a little sub-par. Allow me to correct that with this post.
- "Type 4" Rules -
Players generally play from the one central library although the stack can be drafted and players can play from separate libraries if so desired. With either method, players will be using separate graveyards and exile zones.
Each player may only cast one spell per turn.
The one spell per turn rule is avoided by cards with alternate costs such as Force of Will.
Each player has infinite Swamp, Island, Forest, Plain, and Mountain lands under their control.
Hand size is unlimited.
The starting life total is 30.
It is a fairly straightforward format meant for some good clean fun with your pals and also allows newbies to begin learning a lot of different mechanics.
Now, on to tweaking the details of THIS Type 4 Stack. I need to add 33 cards and want to do it nice and evenly and the best place to do so seems like it would be in the creature section. I like to keep the numbers balanced if you could not tell by looking. My thought was to increase the mono colored creature categories by two each, one each to the dual colored categories, add two to each of the "Shards" 3 color groups, add two to the colorless category and one to the five color category. That fills out my 33 perfectly.
The colorless creature choice is definitely a hard one with so many available possibilities. After doing some more looking i am considering the following cards.
Nullstone Gargoyle - This card just screams shenanigans. It seems like something that could be an excellent addition. Platinum Angel - While this little angel seems to be a little subpar, its hard to leave out such a classic card. Artisan of Kozilek - Not too overpowered, has immediate effects, seems like a great choice. Kozilek, Butcher of Truth - Same as the artisan of kozilek. Blightsteel Colossus - I think i want to switch out darksteel colossus for this. I realize that i have nothing to represent infect and this could be a great way to have it make a viable showing. It That Betrays - This seems to be an excellent choice as well. Solid ability, although not immediate.
I need to make one cut and i think that the butcher is one to let go. The annihilator 4 is quite beastly, perhaps too much so. It was either that or the betrayer and i like it too much.
Next up is the choices for black.
Bringer of the Black dawn - Excellent way to filter the deck to get exactly what you need. I think i shall switch out Seizan, Peverter of Truth for it. Seizan has never been too stellar in the past. Sanguine Praetor - Pretty awesome ability, all around decent card. I will trade out Abyssal Persecutor for it. The persecutor just really doesn't fit the stack. Sheoldred, Whispering One - This is an awesome card and i don't know how i have missed it in the past. It definitely needs to take the place of Magus of the Abyss. Rune-Scarred Demon - A really sweet tutor on a 6/6 flying body? Yes please. A definite add. Kalitas, Bloodchief of Get - I think this would be better to run than Visara the Dreadful. Pit Spawn - Pretty solid card to control the board. Exile is very important as well with indestructible and regenerate around. I will drop Dread for it because while its good i think its slightly outclassed. Phage the Untouchable - I like having alternate win conditions and this one seems like a cool one. Definitely going to add this card.
That leaves me with 13 black now as well as blue. Thoughts on my pics? I am going to work on my next color choices and post them subsequently. I will be editing my original post to reflect any changes.
This leaves me with 6 slots to fill in white. I have done some looking and settled on the following as the best choices to go with:
Blazing Archon - great defensive card on a solid creature. Myojin of Cleansing Fire - solid threat, nuff said. Konda, Lord of Eiganjo - I really wanted to have bushido represented in the stack and this seems like the best choice to do so. Sunblast Angel - Nice fun selective destruction. Yosei, the Morning Star - great defense card and nice to show tap abilities. Baneslayer Angel - very beast in this stack specially with the high numbers of demons and dragons.
- Green -
Dropping: Lhurgoyf - just not up to par Petrified Wood-Kin - better card to replace it Verdant Force - main purpose is token production and i am choosing to remove it in favor of a different token producer that should have more direct effect on the board.
This only leaves me with five slots to fill but this is what i am looking at:
Gaea's Revenge - wood-kin replacement Tornado Elemental - nice semi wipe/flying protection and has another useful ability. Hornet Queen - decent token producer and great defender. replacing verdant force. Moldgraf Monstrosity - card advantage = good Hydra Omnivore - just seems like a great fun choice for multiplayer shenanigans.
Greater Gargadon - with infinite lands and suspend not counting as a spell, this works nicely as a "free" spell. Fire Dragon - nice removal creature Stalking Vengeance - sweet card, i love the ability Thundermare - pseudo burn, i think it will pull suprise wins and be helpful in some situations. Godo, Bandit Warlard - I really wanted an equipment tutor and it also has the addition combat phase. while it only works for samurai, its still there to represent for red and could be useful to get in at least 3 damage here and there. Charmbreaker Devils - nice recursion and also a useful ability.
This color was hard to make pics for just now because there were so many cool choices. I think i did a decent job narrowing them down but i welcome review. I have also edited some more categories in the OP, just did not want to write out a full analysis for everything. Thank you to the mod who merged my posts, and i will keep it in mind in the future and just edit posts when available. Thank you!
EDIT: I have made decisions regarding all the different creature categories and as usual, looking for criticisms. However, my main focus now is to decide on 4 more removal cards. I would like to get that settled and update my planeswalker choices so that i can print out my list and have it all ready for FNM trading tomorrow.
Welcome to my Type 4 Stack. This post will represent the current list and will be updated regularly. 333 total.
Creatures: 133
I split my creatures up by color to make sure that my nonblack removal etc would not be unbalanced. I think my selections are pretty solid for the most part but take a look and see if anything sticks out to ya.
There HAS to be sweeter removal spells out there. I have some nice ones but I definitely need suggestions from you guys so throw me any ideas you have!
This is by far the most interesting category and the one with the most wiggle room. I am unsure 100% on a couple planeswalkers though. What do you guys think of my choice in which planeswalkers to exclude and would you take out or add any others? Let me know what you think. In addition, I think there may be many cards similar to the ones here but with more versatility or there might bebetter cards that I don't know about. I am really looking for lot of suggestions for this category because there are so manydifferent options.
I will say that physical depression is a result of biological factors, all of which boil down to genetics. If YOU understood genetics you would understand that everything about our physical body is determined by our genetics. What I am saying is that our genetics are not the bottom line. Our minds are separate from our bodies and our choices originate from our minds. I know homosexuality and depression is a little different but I am trying to draw analogies about the genetic factors.
I can tell you are getting upset so I will leave the conversation but leave you with this question.
Why are you getting so upset over my proposing that you are in full control of yourself and your life and your existence? I mean if you "had a choice" would you change who you are? (this is obviously rhetorical and just meant to instigate critical thinking)
I look at myself every day and decide what I like and don't like and choose who I am. I honestly think it is important to a happy life and want everyone to be happy. There is nothing wrong with being gay, we all choose who we are and I don't like seeing people give up the choice in their life.
EDIT: If you decide that you WANT to bone men, then yes, you need to be doing what YOU want. Not what your physical body dictates.
Oh and I know, I thought about not dropping it but like seriously, both my parents have IQ's barely over 100 so I find it to be an accomplishment. I wasn't exactly a smart kid either, I had to work and study and learn to think better. Try reading The Art of Thinking, I swear my IQ went up 10 points just reading that book. Seriously, we control our physical existence.
Honestly if you do not think you are in control of yourself I cannot do anything to convince you or anyone of it. I have cited examples from my own life that this is the case and that is really the best I can do in this situation. I can give you another example which is depression. I have an irregularity of serotonin in my brain which is supposed to make me unhappy all the time. Well brain....sucks to be you cause I'm happy, I chose it. Me. Not my brain. Not my genetics. They actually chose the other direction but I made my own choice.
But so you have no scientific evidence? What about life evidence? Was a gay person you know's dad or mom gay? What about their mum and dad? Homosexuals aren't exactly reproducing like crazy so it doesn't make sense that more people would be gay every year if its genetic......Where is the logic?
I would SEVERELY disagree that genetic homosexuality is a widely accepted idea.
I can't believe I'm about to dignify that with a response, but here we go. And idiot is, I feel, someone who behaves idiotically. And I'd argue that using specific remarks that they knew would get under someone's skin is idiotic. Certainly not ignorant, since they were informed he was gay and continued using homophobic remarks that they knew would bother him (he has he wasn't offended, but I can't imagine him not being bothered in the least).
Of course, if we're squabbling over semantics, one definition of idiot is that of a foolish or senseless person. And I think it's safe to say their behavior was both senseless and foolish.
I dunno if its semantics....words have definitions and context narrows that definition when the word has multiple definitions.......
They just do not know how to express that they disagree with his choice or why. I am not justifying their actions, I am just saying that WE have to look at them for what they are and look at how we react. If you and the other people here truly believe them to be idiots (as you are definitely implying) then why do ANY of you care AT ALL what they say because they are of lesser intelligence and obviously not as aware of whats up. We should feel pity for them, not anger. We should be trying to assist them in enlightening themselves, not becoming angry because of their idiocy.
@urweak: I agree and disagree with your statement. If we do not criticize each other how else are we going to point out each others' weaknesses so we can improve upon them? And if we do not make ourselves known to others how will we ever receive criticism? Self awareness is important to growth. We do have to use tact in deciding when it is time to do this but we cannot eliminate it.
Anyone can be attracted to anything either sexually or emotionally.
It is all a matter of perspective. Think about it......what things didn't you like that you like now? Who did you used to love that you hate? What styles did you think were cool and now would not be caught dead in? What foods taste good that didn't used to.
Our physical and mental perceptions are constantly changing based off of what is being input into them. We can live our lives viewing things as others tell us to or we can choose to live and view things as WE choose.
It comes down to every individual, we all CHOOSE what we are. Anyone who hides behind a shield of "im born this way" or "i can't help it" is just a coward.
We are all born with INTENSE genetic predispositions from our parents but we all choose our own way. I was born with genetic predispositions for a lower IQ, a bad back, cancer, and alcoholism. I WILL not get cancer, my back is fine, I drink weekly but I am well in control, and I have an IQ of 172. Not every predisposition is easy to overcome but WE ARE WHATEVER WE CHOOSE TO BE!
I did read the OP and I can see what you are trying to get at and I value that you can analyze and draw lines. But maybe you should look more at the lines of text that you used?
Just about everyone here speaking about the people who made the comments (including you) has referred to those people as idiots. Now, I would say they they are more "ignorants" than idiots but you are still using negative terms to refer to them. And what about the ACTUAL idiots out there? I'm talking about people who are of a lesser intelligence quota than that of the average person. There are probably several people who fit that description who have read this message. Why are they not posting all over the place about how people use the word "idiot"? Its because they have gotten to the place where words don't matter, because they don't. Whether its idiot, ☺☺☺☺☺☺, dummy, spic, ☺☺☺☺☺☺, cracker, ☺☺☺☺☺☺, etc. As long as we all keep giving these words power they will have power.
Someone made a comment about how bigots use this logic to be able to keep using their words. But EVERYONE who EVER uses a branding statement of ANY kind in ANY setting (and I can GUARANTEE that EVERYONE has) is not a bigot. I would say the majority of people who use these "bad" words and want to keep using them, use them casually and without negative connotation. I know that is the case for me.
Now, I understand that the "idiots" (labels, eh) as we are all calling "them" did not actually really respond to the question but that's cause they might just actually be idiots. Because a non-idiot should be able to acknowledge and respond to a question. But that is information that we do not have. And can you discriminate against idiots for trying to answer the question that was raised? Its not their fault as idiots that they cannot express complicated thought.
I guess I will answer the question since they did not.
What is wrong with being gay?
Not much if its what you wanna do but there IS the potential for physical side effects. You can refer to this link for the risks and other factors of anal sex: http://www.goaskalice.columbia.edu/6074.html (this applies to both man/woman and man/man interactions so the risk goes out to all practitioners of the act) To my knowledge that potential risk is the only thing "wrong" with being gay.
So I did not even bother reading this several pages of BS but wanted to make my statement cause I think it has a lot of merit to the situation and people should think more about it.
WHY DO YOU AS A HOMOSEXUAL FEEL THE NEED TO MAKE IT CLEAR TO OTHERS WHAT YOUR SEXUAL PREFERENCE IS?
I don't go around telling people that I like to get tied up and have sex with mature women as their slave, why do you go around telling people that you like to either be penetrated anally or like to penetrate another male anally? If you feel the need to make your sexual practices public then you have no choice but to hear out other peoples' opinion on the subject regardless of whether it is positive or not. Not to say that name calling is the proper method of expressing your opinion. I know that homosexuality is less accepted due to the same sex situation being more recently publicized but lets be honest. Sexual orientation has nothing to do with anything outside of your own personal life and it should stay that way. You don't need to put thoughts in other peoples' minds that they don't necessarily want there.
YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT SO LONG AS IT DOES NOT INFRINGE UPON SOMEONE ELSE'S ABILITY TO DO WHATEVER THEY WANT
lets all stop being completely ignorant.................
I have no real play experience with previous leylines but I would not be playing it as a 4 of by any means. This seems like the card you add as a one of to UW control and if you start with it....AWESOME, if not....you probly won't see it and it wont matter. If you start with it your deck just becomes ubernasty and never loses and if you don't start with it then your deck plays just like normal, no worse for the wear generally.
I was working on some felidar builds a while back and I found WG to actually be a really good combination. Green ramps to get there just a little faster and gives Summoning Trap for pulling felidars out on EOT as well as cascade in the form of Captured Sunlight if you choose to use it. I tried builds with and without it and just make sure to pay attention to your three drops if you do. Obviously you guys have been going mono white however so to each their own. Just figured I would drop my suggestions. GL guys!

Pack #2 was so heavy with red signals that i could not ignore it but i didn't end up solidifying my choice of colors for a while as you all can see by my erratic pics.
- "Type 4" Rules -
Players generally play from the one central library although the stack can be drafted and players can play from separate libraries if so desired. With either method, players will be using separate graveyards and exile zones.
Each player may only cast one spell per turn.
The one spell per turn rule is avoided by cards with alternate costs such as Force of Will.
Each player has infinite Swamp, Island, Forest, Plain, and Mountain lands under their control.
Hand size is unlimited.
The starting life total is 30.
It is a fairly straightforward format meant for some good clean fun with your pals and also allows newbies to begin learning a lot of different mechanics.
Now, on to tweaking the details of THIS Type 4 Stack. I need to add 33 cards and want to do it nice and evenly and the best place to do so seems like it would be in the creature section. I like to keep the numbers balanced if you could not tell by looking. My thought was to increase the mono colored creature categories by two each, one each to the dual colored categories, add two to each of the "Shards" 3 color groups, add two to the colorless category and one to the five color category. That fills out my 33 perfectly.
Concerning blue, i think Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur takes the pick between the two cards mentioned for sure. For the second addition to blue i was looking at Chancellor of the Spires. I think it would be an excellent choice. I had thought Dark Depths was too strong, but now i think it will go well. Also, Aladdin's Lamp is replacing the Sceptor of Insight.
The colorless creature choice is definitely a hard one with so many available possibilities. After doing some more looking i am considering the following cards.
Nullstone Gargoyle - This card just screams shenanigans. It seems like something that could be an excellent addition.
Platinum Angel - While this little angel seems to be a little subpar, its hard to leave out such a classic card.
Artisan of Kozilek - Not too overpowered, has immediate effects, seems like a great choice.
Kozilek, Butcher of Truth - Same as the artisan of kozilek.
Blightsteel Colossus - I think i want to switch out darksteel colossus for this. I realize that i have nothing to represent infect and this could be a great way to have it make a viable showing.
It That Betrays - This seems to be an excellent choice as well. Solid ability, although not immediate.
I need to make one cut and i think that the butcher is one to let go. The annihilator 4 is quite beastly, perhaps too much so. It was either that or the betrayer and i like it too much.
Next up is the choices for black.
Bringer of the Black dawn - Excellent way to filter the deck to get exactly what you need. I think i shall switch out Seizan, Peverter of Truth for it. Seizan has never been too stellar in the past.
Sanguine Praetor - Pretty awesome ability, all around decent card. I will trade out Abyssal Persecutor for it. The persecutor just really doesn't fit the stack.
Sheoldred, Whispering One - This is an awesome card and i don't know how i have missed it in the past. It definitely needs to take the place of Magus of the Abyss.
Rune-Scarred Demon - A really sweet tutor on a 6/6 flying body? Yes please. A definite add.
Kalitas, Bloodchief of Get - I think this would be better to run than Visara the Dreadful.
Pit Spawn - Pretty solid card to control the board. Exile is very important as well with indestructible and regenerate around. I will drop Dread for it because while its good i think its slightly outclassed.
Phage the Untouchable - I like having alternate win conditions and this one seems like a cool one. Definitely going to add this card.
That leaves me with 13 black now as well as blue. Thoughts on my pics? I am going to work on my next color choices and post them subsequently. I will be editing my original post to reflect any changes.
- White -
Dropping:
Iona, Shield of Emeria - Not viable very often.
Conqueror's Pledge - redundant and generally inferior to Storm Herd
Glory - too good when it ends up in the graveyard. it spells instant win.
Archon of Justice - just not good enough.
This leaves me with 6 slots to fill in white. I have done some looking and settled on the following as the best choices to go with:
Blazing Archon - great defensive card on a solid creature.
Myojin of Cleansing Fire - solid threat, nuff said.
Konda, Lord of Eiganjo - I really wanted to have bushido represented in the stack and this seems like the best choice to do so.
Sunblast Angel - Nice fun selective destruction.
Yosei, the Morning Star - great defense card and nice to show tap abilities.
Baneslayer Angel - very beast in this stack specially with the high numbers of demons and dragons.
- Green -
Dropping:
Lhurgoyf - just not up to par
Petrified Wood-Kin - better card to replace it
Verdant Force - main purpose is token production and i am choosing to remove it in favor of a different token producer that should have more direct effect on the board.
This only leaves me with five slots to fill but this is what i am looking at:
Gaea's Revenge - wood-kin replacement
Tornado Elemental - nice semi wipe/flying protection and has another useful ability.
Hornet Queen - decent token producer and great defender. replacing verdant force.
Moldgraf Monstrosity - card advantage = good
Hydra Omnivore - just seems like a great fun choice for multiplayer shenanigans.
- Red -
Dropping:
Hamletback Goliath - beastly but underpowered as the stack has developed.
Knollspine Dragon - potentially awesome but all too often a dead/subpar card.
Conquering Manticore - while i like it, the ability is similar to that of Bringer of the Red Dawn and i like the bringer better.
Jaya Ballard, Task Mage - same general use as bloodfire colossus but slower.
This leaves me 6 open spots.
Greater Gargadon - with infinite lands and suspend not counting as a spell, this works nicely as a "free" spell.
Fire Dragon - nice removal creature
Stalking Vengeance - sweet card, i love the ability
Thundermare - pseudo burn, i think it will pull suprise wins and be helpful in some situations.
Godo, Bandit Warlard - I really wanted an equipment tutor and it also has the addition combat phase. while it only works for samurai, its still there to represent for red and could be useful to get in at least 3 damage here and there.
Charmbreaker Devils - nice recursion and also a useful ability.
This color was hard to make pics for just now because there were so many cool choices. I think i did a decent job narrowing them down but i welcome review. I have also edited some more categories in the OP, just did not want to write out a full analysis for everything. Thank you to the mod who merged my posts, and i will keep it in mind in the future and just edit posts when available. Thank you!
EDIT: I have made decisions regarding all the different creature categories and as usual, looking for criticisms. However, my main focus now is to decide on 4 more removal cards. I would like to get that settled and update my planeswalker choices so that i can print out my list and have it all ready for FNM trading tomorrow.

Lol @ spam
I can tell you are getting upset so I will leave the conversation but leave you with this question.
Why are you getting so upset over my proposing that you are in full control of yourself and your life and your existence? I mean if you "had a choice" would you change who you are? (this is obviously rhetorical and just meant to instigate critical thinking)
I look at myself every day and decide what I like and don't like and choose who I am. I honestly think it is important to a happy life and want everyone to be happy. There is nothing wrong with being gay, we all choose who we are and I don't like seeing people give up the choice in their life.
EDIT: If you decide that you WANT to bone men, then yes, you need to be doing what YOU want. Not what your physical body dictates.
Oh and I know, I thought about not dropping it but like seriously, both my parents have IQ's barely over 100 so I find it to be an accomplishment. I wasn't exactly a smart kid either, I had to work and study and learn to think better. Try reading The Art of Thinking, I swear my IQ went up 10 points just reading that book. Seriously, we control our physical existence.
But so you have no scientific evidence? What about life evidence? Was a gay person you know's dad or mom gay? What about their mum and dad? Homosexuals aren't exactly reproducing like crazy so it doesn't make sense that more people would be gay every year if its genetic......Where is the logic?
I would SEVERELY disagree that genetic homosexuality is a widely accepted idea.
I dunno if its semantics....words have definitions and context narrows that definition when the word has multiple definitions.......
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idiot
They just do not know how to express that they disagree with his choice or why. I am not justifying their actions, I am just saying that WE have to look at them for what they are and look at how we react. If you and the other people here truly believe them to be idiots (as you are definitely implying) then why do ANY of you care AT ALL what they say because they are of lesser intelligence and obviously not as aware of whats up. We should feel pity for them, not anger. We should be trying to assist them in enlightening themselves, not becoming angry because of their idiocy.
@urweak: I agree and disagree with your statement. If we do not criticize each other how else are we going to point out each others' weaknesses so we can improve upon them? And if we do not make ourselves known to others how will we ever receive criticism? Self awareness is important to growth. We do have to use tact in deciding when it is time to do this but we cannot eliminate it.
Anyone can be attracted to anything either sexually or emotionally.
It is all a matter of perspective. Think about it......what things didn't you like that you like now? Who did you used to love that you hate? What styles did you think were cool and now would not be caught dead in? What foods taste good that didn't used to.
Our physical and mental perceptions are constantly changing based off of what is being input into them. We can live our lives viewing things as others tell us to or we can choose to live and view things as WE choose.
It comes down to every individual, we all CHOOSE what we are. Anyone who hides behind a shield of "im born this way" or "i can't help it" is just a coward.
We are all born with INTENSE genetic predispositions from our parents but we all choose our own way. I was born with genetic predispositions for a lower IQ, a bad back, cancer, and alcoholism. I WILL not get cancer, my back is fine, I drink weekly but I am well in control, and I have an IQ of 172. Not every predisposition is easy to overcome but WE ARE WHATEVER WE CHOOSE TO BE!
Just about everyone here speaking about the people who made the comments (including you) has referred to those people as idiots. Now, I would say they they are more "ignorants" than idiots but you are still using negative terms to refer to them. And what about the ACTUAL idiots out there? I'm talking about people who are of a lesser intelligence quota than that of the average person. There are probably several people who fit that description who have read this message. Why are they not posting all over the place about how people use the word "idiot"? Its because they have gotten to the place where words don't matter, because they don't. Whether its idiot, ☺☺☺☺☺☺, dummy, spic, ☺☺☺☺☺☺, cracker, ☺☺☺☺☺☺, etc. As long as we all keep giving these words power they will have power.
Someone made a comment about how bigots use this logic to be able to keep using their words. But EVERYONE who EVER uses a branding statement of ANY kind in ANY setting (and I can GUARANTEE that EVERYONE has) is not a bigot. I would say the majority of people who use these "bad" words and want to keep using them, use them casually and without negative connotation. I know that is the case for me.
Now, I understand that the "idiots" (labels, eh) as we are all calling "them" did not actually really respond to the question but that's cause they might just actually be idiots. Because a non-idiot should be able to acknowledge and respond to a question. But that is information that we do not have. And can you discriminate against idiots for trying to answer the question that was raised? Its not their fault as idiots that they cannot express complicated thought.
I guess I will answer the question since they did not.
What is wrong with being gay?
Not much if its what you wanna do but there IS the potential for physical side effects. You can refer to this link for the risks and other factors of anal sex: http://www.goaskalice.columbia.edu/6074.html (this applies to both man/woman and man/man interactions so the risk goes out to all practitioners of the act) To my knowledge that potential risk is the only thing "wrong" with being gay.
WHY DO YOU AS A HOMOSEXUAL FEEL THE NEED TO MAKE IT CLEAR TO OTHERS WHAT YOUR SEXUAL PREFERENCE IS?
I don't go around telling people that I like to get tied up and have sex with mature women as their slave, why do you go around telling people that you like to either be penetrated anally or like to penetrate another male anally? If you feel the need to make your sexual practices public then you have no choice but to hear out other peoples' opinion on the subject regardless of whether it is positive or not. Not to say that name calling is the proper method of expressing your opinion. I know that homosexuality is less accepted due to the same sex situation being more recently publicized but lets be honest. Sexual orientation has nothing to do with anything outside of your own personal life and it should stay that way. You don't need to put thoughts in other peoples' minds that they don't necessarily want there.
YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT SO LONG AS IT DOES NOT INFRINGE UPON SOMEONE ELSE'S ABILITY TO DO WHATEVER THEY WANT
lets all stop being completely ignorant.................
I was working on some felidar builds a while back and I found WG to actually be a really good combination. Green ramps to get there just a little faster and gives Summoning Trap for pulling felidars out on EOT as well as cascade in the form of Captured Sunlight if you choose to use it. I tried builds with and without it and just make sure to pay attention to your three drops if you do. Obviously you guys have been going mono white however so to each their own. Just figured I would drop my suggestions. GL guys!
