Uh... what exactly are you asking? Why would you be replying to your own post?
[answer] the existence of new information maybe, that would probably be confusing if i just added it to my previous post (using edit)... [/answer]
[p.s.]
i'm an organized person (perfectionist actually),
and i like to separate things into category...
you should see my cards collection since onslaught...
sorted by expansion, color, then rarity, then alphabetically...
that's why i like to split posts to make them "organized"
(well that, and the fact of the post++...)
[/p.s.]
[edit]
thanks for the answers, qwerty..., but in case my post is too "long", can i do that?? too avoid confusion...
[/edit]
[insight] well, i'm not sure whether this belongs here... [/insight]
[question]
anyway, if i'm replying to my own post (and the new post's contents is different than the previous post), therefor making consecutive posts (same thread), is it considered double-posting??
[/question]
[hint] well 23 lands is probably to "light" for a control deck, but with the amount of scrying mainboard(8, +2 if you count the pendant...) theres little chance that i would get mana screwed...
and for the lone city of brass? well my friend played kiki-jiki, red-green deck, that needed some color fixing, so i lend him my 3 city of brass [/hint]
[sorry] only if this has been posted somewhere else... besides wizards boards of course... [/sorry]
[edit] tags... copy paste-ing is a baaaaddd habit... get used to it... [/edit]
[p.s.] this may have been better in casual deck... but i won a fnm once with this deck... , so it CAN be competitive... as long as your opponents are manascrewed, land-screwed, and uhh, mana flood helps too... [/p.s]
Please don't doublepost, use your edit button. Also this topic will feel much more at home in the casual forum.

[hint] akroma's vengeance...
1. it kills affinity...
2. it cycles...
3. it kills affinity...
4. it destroys everything... (can be regenerated though...)
5. it kills affinity... [/hint]
well actually, i always usually use 4 in my deck, why? to cycle it of course, what else... it's not like it's useful for anything else...
Also, if a spell has has multiple targets and one or more are illegal at resolution, the spell is NOT countered. ALL targets must be illegal by resolution to counter the spell.
hmm... i always thought that if 1 of the target is invalid, the spell would be countered...
for example : entwined reap and sow, if you remove your land that's being targeted, the whole part gets countered...
And Kaizer, how about 3 in major sets:
Onslaught: Ixidor's Will, Complicate, Discombobulate
Mirrodin: Annul, Override, Assert Authority
Champions: Hinder, Hisoka's Defiance, Thoughtbind
And 2 or more in expansions:
Scourge: Dispersal Shield, Hindering Touch, Decree of Silence
Darksteel: Last Word, Vex
Fifth Dawn: Condescend, Fold Into Aether
Betrayers: Distrupting Shoal, Quash, more?
touche!!
[sorry] well, actually i was only referring to the cards that i usually use in standard...
and yes, i overlooked some cards in the process... [/sorry]
[note to self] next time i'll look around (gatherer), before getting pwned like this... [/note to self]
that card is insane! I dont think R&D will create a card that will single-handedly destroy an archetype deck. oh well...
there used to be an archetype named astral slide...
then stabilizer came out...
wow, i mean, like, to print hoser in the same block...
and as a 2mana artifact that can be used in any deck...
astral slide must be REALLLYYYY powerrffullllll.....
Call me crazy, but I like this card. Maybe its just because I have an affinity for any free counter. The part the sucks royally is its equal to not equal or less than, just like with Hisoka. I would like to try and play it competively, but unfortunately, I dont think it is going to happen. BTW, is Quash going to be in the set?
okay crazy ..., and uh... i like the card too...
[opinion] as for quash, i don't think so...
coz from past experience, wizard only print 2 counterspells in big expansions
onslaught = complicate, discombobulate
mirrodin = override, assert authority
kamigawa = hinder, thoughtbind (hisoka sensei and defiance?? forgot this one, doh)
and only 1 in smaller expansions
scourge = hindering touch
5th dawn = condescend
betrayers = disrupting shoal?? [/opinion]
[insight]at 6 mana, the other players hand would be almost empty by now...
but then again, it's huge, i mean, like, HUGE...
although the 4 thoughness could be a problem...[/insight]
