    Cascade, mind you, it didn't have much of an impact on standard when it was legal, maybe they can make it better someway.


    Somebody didn't play during that period in standard... Bloodbraid Elf and Bituminous Blast were both HUGELY played and VERY impactful.

    That would have been great for a sex change. It's cool to see that something bland (like a random knight of some building) can be either/or. I could swear there was one card that got a sex change on a promo, but I forget which one...


    Well, you would keep artifacts inside a reliquary... maybe she's been a-lootin'.


    Meddling Mage

    Peter Finkel even came on the forums and complained at his dismay.

    Also that mace looks NOTHING like manaforce mace. It isn't square in the least whereas the manaforce mace looks like it's made of rectangular bars.

    I'd also run Myr Sire from MBS

  • posted a message on Molten Psyche Eruption
    Basically I'm considering a mono red deck that focuses on mana ramp with koth and other artifacts like mox opal and perhaps iron myr to ramp into one of three spells: Molten Pysche, Cerebral Eruption and Runeflare trap. Molten Psyche with metal craft online can be a HEAVY hit, following it up with a runeflare is even better. Cerebral Eruption is a little dicey but when it pays off it's a huge blow out especially when reverberated.

    My basic idea so far


    Thought's? Cuts? Additions? I've been testing on MWs and I can't find a happy balance of cards. I need to get metal craft online and making that reliable is hard on the consistancy.

  • posted a message on R/G & U/G GALVANIC GENESIS.
    Basically I have an idea for a green deck with a red splash that runs a myr backbone and aims to combo off of galvanic mana combo and cast genesis wave to play out all your creatures and lands. You can also run splinter twin combo aswell as comet storm. the deck having so many combo outlets is really helpful as it makes 4 of your cards effectively game winning draws. All the deck needs is to ramp into galvanizers and palladium myr protect each with use of withstand death and vines of vastwood.

    With Vines of vastwood and Withstand Death to protect our combo partners of myr galvanizers and palladium myr. The deck would run 4 palladium myr and 4 Copper Myr aswell as 4 battlespheres It would then run a singleton emrakul as a way to reset after a genesis wave to deck yourself, and 4 genesis wave. The basic plan is to myrtronic overdrive [galvanizer + palladium combo] play Wave for X = 61 and play your deck entire except for Emrakul who would then be sent to the yard resetting the deck and regaining you more genesis waves. This would allow for a very durable deck post sweepers. Once you combo and cast wave you just play out all your myr and battlespheres and a goblin bushwacker and explode them in the face.

    Alternatively one could go U/G and run deck manipulation to allow effective use of none infinite genesis waves and use cards like Time Reversal to reset the deck instead of tossing emrakul one would cast her and win off that we would also gain Mana Leak in addition to withstand and vines to help us stay intact.

  • posted a message on G Artifact Aggro?
    I've been considering a G build for a beatdown win, vines of vastwood and the new indestructible for Ginstants to protect your guys. Then just charge em with an army of galvanizers, mana myr, battlespheres and so on, accelerated with mox opal and boosted by ramping out Eldrazi Monument or an early Overrun if it runs cultivate and the mox + 4-5 mana myr, ramping up to an early Overrun or Monument will be a winner. Also, Myrtronic overdrive [ galvanizer + paladium myr] can cause you to play strength of the tajuru or gelatinous genesis into either infinite tokens or infinitely large myr swarms.

    it could also splash red for comet storm, spinter twin and ragine ravine which could gain infinite instances of it's pump ability, making it become ENORMOUSLY threatening and recurrable. I'm imagining perhaps even a basilisk collar to use on your infinitely large dudes, it's a win win scenario, if you connect you win, if they block you gain infinite life. All these alt win conditions are also totally EXTRA. the main win is a fast myr swarm and overrun/ monument to win with facebeats.

    "so far, poison counters are the only counters players can get" this quote is pulled from the SoM mechanics article on daily mtg.

    IT'S TOTALLY A HINT FROM MaRo!!!!!!!1!!

    Not but honestly what kind of design space has been missed out on here? What do you think could be done with the "counters on players" idea?

    Or maybe y'know some sort of LIFE EXTENDING MAGIC was used... Nobody here can say it's not possible he went somewhere and found a mage or an artifact that granted him extreme longevity or immortality.

    Seriously guys, it's pretty simple.

    if you went jund for this deck Lord of Extinction seems like a good alternative to the Knight. He'll be far beyond a 10/10 once the force hits, and at this point should they really have anything on board to block him?

  • posted a message on Stand Alone Set Next Year? Rumor at Launch Party
    Even though it's possible it DOES violate the chan ge they made starting in shards with reducing the number of cards per set in order to create a standard environment that doesn't overwhelm people with card selection issues.

    This should be very strong in a BW or BG orBU deck. It's highly splashable. You guys are all on about how it'll kill you when you let it go nuts. Splash for a fix guys! We have fetches and two of the ones that snag swamps are also the anti enchantment colours! Run a few Marsh flats and pull up a demystify. It's not that hard.

    Quote from Stupid_Trout
    Edit: Also, not dating before you are 18 IS weird. I can only think of one person that I know who didn't start dating until his senior year in high school or later, and he has horrible social skills and anxieties. I can't believe that someone on this forum is carrying around the thought that dating before 18 is blasphemous, and even worse so, that people agree with them. Ugh.



    I know it's weird but putting that way and assuming I'm sort sort non functional idiot is pretty ignorant. I can explain my lack or experience with women pretty easily.

    1- Nerd/Geek = less success right off the bat
    2- I keep older company and as a result they often didn't even consider me
    3- Gift or curse I'm a REALLY nice guy and we all know that 80% of teenage girls aren't looking for the nice guy.
    4- the one or two chances I DID have to get a girlfriend before I was 18 ended up spoiled by circumstance and some of the WORST ☺☺☺☺ing luck ever.
    5- I'm not particularly good looking and also happen to be much bigger than was normal for most of highschool. This doesn't mean I'm ugly but I'm not above a 7 and more often than not I sit around 6 no matter who you ask. Nor am I fat. I'm just very tall and quite broad shouldered and generally covered in muscle.

    I had very discouraging luck with girls, and for most of my time in highschool I was painfully aware that girls did not want anything to do with me more than friendship. So yeah I may have jumped at finally getting a girlfirend and rushed into it a bit hard.
