Yup, that's my new Burst Lightning.
Now to see if Maynard wants to sign it...

Savage Dream Lord posted a message on [[Official]] What is the most pimp card/deck you've seen or owned? (SEE RULES!)Hey guys. I stepped out for a while. Sold a lot of my collection, but mostly the less cool parts. Now I'm actively collecting again in preparation for my next book. Anyways, I thought you might like to see what I've been working on. Also, sorry for the potato pics. The charger for my real camera is busted until next week.Posted in: Magic General
Here's my Forest test print collection progress:
And since we are showing off tokens, here are my JinHes and Minagishis (the duplicates have different backs):

Please don't waste the judge's time for no reason. They have actual calls to worry about. -

MarkXero posted a message on Mothership spoilers 3/17 - Sorin & Deathcap CultivatorPosted in: The Rumor MillQuote from Kazooki117 »That art looks absolutely terrible in the images posted here, and possibly just from a distance in general, for some reason, but a higher resolution image makes them look much more acceptable. I was about to rant a bit about the terrible art, but I am glad I checked to make sure Eric wasn't just a terrible artist (he isn't, he's done a lot of great cards and a bunch of planeswalkers). The better resolution image on the mothership lets you see the detail in the face and armor much better, and it actually isn't bad there.
Really glad you made that observation. I wasn't impressed with the art from the card preview either, but the big art version is fantastic, and that armour is pretty badass -

orlouge82 posted a message on Mothership Spoilers 3/16 - Jace, Unraveler of Secrets, Olivia, Mobilized for WarPosted in: The Rumor MillQuote from Shardoon »
My Celestial Colonnade ignores your Jace, Unraveler of Secrets and swings for lethal.
You tap 3UU and 'cry 1' as my aggro build swings for lethal.
Move along, nothing to see here. Just another U bulk bin PW.
Your opponent taps out for Jace with a Celestial Colonnade on the board? Sounds like he just started learning how to play Magic. Any control player worth his salt would clear the board or at least have a defense ready before playing Jace. And they'd never tap out to play him. -

bobthefunny posted a message on Crazy Plays in EDH.Game 2: Yours Truly with signature Trostani deck vs. Erebos, Roon, Phage.Posted in: Commander (EDH)
Loooong game. An early withered wretch from Phage manages to keep graveyards clean and stops a lot of shenanigans that I had in mind. Erebos gets a scary board with Dictate of Erebos, but roon keeps him in check with a well timed Turn to Frog + Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobyte to kill of his baord + god which was active. A later Oblivion Stone cleans up the rest of the mess. During this time I get a herald of the host online, and even manage to pouplate a token, but sadly Elesh Norn keeps me from drawing a grip off of Elemental Bond.
The next turn when I go to combat with both angels, I ate the O-stone, preventing me again from cards. Really obnoxious, but I was trying to force the ostone anyways so I could build an even better board state (I was holding Doubling Season + Blade of Selves, which I had been DYING to put on my angel with that elemental bond out. The ostone from phage (and copied Clever Impersonator ostone on Roon's side made me use up the angels to force the issue so I could build after). I drop an Emeria Shepherd instead, with the blade of selves on her, and drop a Diligent Farmhand, plains to recur the elemental bond, and pass. On the next turn I drop the Doubling season and attack with 5 Emeria Shepherds, which you would think would be super sexy with a diligent farmhand out. BUT NO. PHAGE REANIMATED THE WITHERED WRETCH, SO I HAVE NO GRAVEYARD. Darn it. Seriously guys. I jsut want to bring 5 things back with my sheperds. Is that so wrong?
Nicely enough, at least Emeria Sheperd had returned my Elemental bond, so I at least got 4 cards out of the deal, one of which was Cathar's Crusade. Next turn I go for the Crusade kill, but get Cyclonic Rifted. Darn it.
Ok, replay Doubling Season, Seedborn Muse, Cathar's Crusade, Elemental Bond, and stuff. Pass. Black sun's zenith for 6 from erebos (who's looking at death from Roon who has Akroma's Memorial + True Conviction, and is dutifully cannibalizing him to buff up his own life total). Response. Chord of Calling -> x = 2 -> Guildmage. Centaur. Populate. Populate. Populate. Many counters. Survive Black suns. Hah! Roon drops Roon (hasty due to Akroma's), and Erebos asks if he's dead. In the meekest voice, Roon says "I need you alive...". It was hilarious. Trust me. Phage Demonic Tutors. Darn it. Perilous Vault. WTF REALLY? More of me not having a graveyard. Or a board. Darn it.
Fine. I have a bjillion some odd cards in hand. (Yay Elemental Bond, rest in peace within your perilous vault). Mirari's Wake. Genesis Wave for all of it (X=33). Get Perilous lives. Get Rampaging Baloths. Get Retreat to Emeria. Lands. Like 5 of them. Get many, many tokens. Pass. Forgot that Archfiend of Depravity had been released (and forgot my Angel of Serenity trigger to exile it). Darn it! Keep Baloth + sun titan.
Fine. Seance puts in some work and brings in 2 tokens of Karmic Guide for reanimation of Angel of Serenity (recursion mode, ahoy! + get rid of Archfiend), and stuff. Roon kills angel, my Baloths, and some other good stuff. Darn it!
Fine. Seance a Knight-Captain of Eos. Get 8 soldiers. Make more soldiers (land drop from burgeoning) + retreat. Kjeldoarn Outpost some soldiers. Phage casts Choice of Damnations. Darn it! I'm at 33 (erebos means no lifegain during the game, annoying). Choose 32 (would keep all my lands, wake, 1 other thing - lose all the tokens, several enchantments, if he chooses permanents). Chooses life. Go to 1. My turn. Drop Trostani (costs 10). Drop Cradle of Vitality. Drop Titania, Protector of Argoth. Respond to lifegain trigger. Sac land for 2 tokens. respond to lifegain triggers. Sac land, respond, etc. gain 4 life from a gargoyle token. Pay 1W to put 4 +1 counters on next in line. Gain 7. Pay 1W onto the 1st of many 5/3 tokens. Gain 10. Pay 1W. 13. Pay 1W. 16. Pay 1W. 19. etc. Gain over 100 life, dropping 23 counters onto a thing that can attack. Kill 2 players. Not enough for 3rd. ERG!
(( SIDE NOTE: In writing this, I realize that I forgot to account for the +1 off of wake in all that, I should have had a LOT more life and counters. ))
Roon recurs Cyclonic Rift. Rifts. For ****s sake. Darn it. Roon punches me for 4. Roon reveals a Chord for a witness/archaeomancer + roon flicker to rift lock me + vigilant commander damage for the eventual kill. Asks if I have any way out of it. I re-drop wake. Kill roon with Elspeth. Rings of Brighthearth + Dust Bowl + Strip Mine for 4 lands. Sun Titan to return Strip Mine (pointing out the land lock on him, +burgeoning makes it faster if he replays lands). Then point out that I can drop trostani, titania, cradle of vit, and overload a soldier token from Kjeldoran Outpost every turn and do the Cradle of Vitality chain to drop ungodly amounts of counters on him for a major attack each turn. He concedes the game. At last!
7 cards left in library, 30+ lands out, (3 in library, including glacial chasm). Most of the rest are exiled. At least 20-30 cards of mine are exiled from GY during the game. -

Hawk7915 posted a message on Cards to abuse with GlamerdyeLlawan, Cephalid Empress is the undisputed queen of Glamerdye nonsense. Magnetic Mountain and Light of Day shut down creatures and work when donated which is nice. King Crab is fragile and slow but could be devastating. Absolute Law also works regardless of controller and I'm sure you can cause some amount of Chaos with that effect.Posted in: Commander (EDH) - To post a comment, please login or register a new account.

Lands that tap to add colorless mana will be errata'd to add amounts of <> instead.
But I assume effects, such as in Heartless Summoning or Leonin Arbiter, will remain as generic mana.

You could say that for almost anybody being vented about in this thread. Hell, I'd say what she did was worse than the majority of the stories in this thread, OP just remained calm and didn't go into too much detail. There's no excuse for ranting at an opponent for the same length of a game of Magic (even in an aggro match up), and that's much worse than a lot of the ""gg" "no it wasn't"" posts we see here. Why make excuses? It's inexcusable.
