    Not that there is much I can really say (except that I, for one, dislike Cruz due to his desire to gut everything and make the rich richer, but that's just me), but I can ask why something such as "natural born citizen" is in our Constitution, but yet, has never once been challenged for an official ruling as to what it's supposed to mean in regards to politics.

    But then again, I think his base must have thought they needed a laugh track to go along with the potential X number of people thinking about running?

    So I was tinkering around.

    Yes yes, this is a bad thing.

    I'm sure this probably matches something somewhere, but thought I would get your take. I know my wording is probably pretty horrible, but wording certain things has never been a strong suit for me.

    With that said:

    Blink <cost> (Exile CARDNAME and all cards attached to it. At the beginning of the next end step, if CARDNAME had an artifact or enchantment attached to it, you may pay <cost>. If you do, return CARDNAME to the battlefield under its owner’s control.)

    Now I see this as a double edged sword. You can blink it to get rid of an effect, but at the same time, if you have artifacts or enchantments on it, well, then you lose that also. I was thinking more along the lines of sending the attached items to the graveyard, but I also think of dredge and various graveyard effects.

    You can probably also tweak it a bit to bring them back from exile, or a bit less powered (unless you're doing rare/mythic qualities on something), but for some odd reason, it would elude me.

    Here goes:

    Blackflame Manticore 2RB
    Creature - Manticore (R)
    Flying
    Sacrifice a manticore you control: Blackflame Manticore deals X damage to target creature or player,
    where X is equal to the sacrificed creature’s power.
    It has no problem taking out its own, even if for temporary power.
    3/5

    This is why I rarely ever have chat on in any of the M:tG programs I play on. I have little to no desire to actually see that flying across my screen. Either that or else I'll just run through the DotP single player campaigns and challenges for my fix.

    *Looks at all the information, contemplates, then comes up with some convoluted concept*

    It's obvious that white is going to play a huge role in this particular block and it'll have something to do with Elspeth and Ajani. We can agree with that because of JIN having those two. The fact also shows that the same god will possibly show up (okay, more than likely) because it (he) is in BNG/JIN.

    Now setting lands aside as a major aspect (because they will be), is it to far fetched to say that U will play a part in BNG because of the lightning, clouds, etc... or do we look at the blatantly obvious things?

    Also, the red/black aspect of the god itself (which I am sure has been established) would lead me to believe that it's going to be a URG in BNG but WBR in JIN.

    I can't say this with 100%, neither can anyone really, but I'm just giving my perspective to such.

    From what I've been seeing, it's more along the lines of the artifacts/lands that can only produce colorless mana. I could be wrong, but considering the number of colorless mana producing artifacts/lands out, it would be interesting. The only thing I would require in restriction range is that ONLY colorless mana being produced and NO colored mana being used to cast something.

    So therefore, you could use Sol Ring, but not basic lands or anything would produce any colored mana, such as Command Tower (UNLESS it COULD produce a colorless mana).

    That's just my take on it.

    So judging by the rules, for each head on the battlefield, it's dealing damage to you on each turn for each head on the battlefield. Well now, that would be interesting as you would be a couple of damage redirection spells at the very least. Not sure what the ruling is on that, but ouch. Even on 2-4, getting dinged can cause some issues.

    I would say this is definitely going to be a pain, especially since one of my favorite cards (Evil Twin) can't be played in a standard, but ... one never knows what could happen if you hit it in a non-STD game.

    You attempt to cast a spell, but it seems to not be working the way it does back home, and all that happens is a fairly noisy shifting of the ground, at which the fire-eyed man stops, and slowly begins turning around…

    OOC: You are now in a conflict, as your stealth has a time limit on it. Use this website for your rolls.


    OOC: Had a feeling that would fail. Was in a bit of a rush, LOL, but meh, oh well! Wink BTW, is there anywhere to 'hide'? I keep forgetting that I'm speedy. -_-

    ENDILSES

    "Your money and your life," they say, legitimately attacking you.


    Thinking to himself that these two are idiotic to even attempt to step in his way, and considering he's already taken enough time in getting to his destination, he growls in rage before stating out loud, "Idiots. I don't have time for you." before leaping up and sprouting dark smokey wings.

    Midnight Wings 2U/B mana
    Instant
    Kicker black mana
    Target creature gains flying until end of turn. If Midnight Wings was kicked, target creature deals 1 damage to target creature.

    Upon landing, he will then hopefully be far enough away from the other one to think of the next movement.

    OOC: This would be a good time to make a card to remain hidden.

    Challenge Rating - 19
    Remain Hidden and Follow


    OOC: Good point huh.

    While keeping his distance, he then stops and kneels. Without a hesitating thought, he taps the ground, desecrating it briefly before sinking into it to keep himself hidden in case of any issues and to keep an eye on what may happen.


    Graveswallow 1BB

    Sacrifice a creature you control. During your upkeep, you may pay :symb:. If you do, return all creatures sacrificed in this way to the battlefield.

    ENDILSES

    You head out of Darkwall toward Begrina. You make it as far as the sea caves (+ub) but then you find yourself attacked on the path by two:

    Caveshroud Mugger :symr::symub:
    Creature - Human Rogue
    Mountainwalk
    Whenever Caveshroud Mugger deals combat damage to a player, that player discards a card unless he or she has you draw a card.
    2/2

    You can run without a difficulty check, but not if you try to cast spells first.

    OOC: How do you pronounce Endilses?


    OOC: End-il-ses (End-ILL-cease basically)

    Looking at the two rogues, and keeping his eyes on both, he shakes his head. "I don't have time for you two, what do you want?" as he stands there with his arms crossed and feet together, knowing that he could run, but also knowing he has more than enough to take them out if necessary.

    Ordishi

    OOC: Oh, don't worry about that. I give out mana in large clumps, but only rarely. You would be wise to ration things.

    The one-horned man turns back to you with a strange look on his face. Almost as though he doubts… or is offended by… your existence right now, "Goodbye stranger," he says, before turning around and walking off, in the direction he had looked.


    Looking at the creature, he keeps back, but follows this horned creature, especially since this creature can at least show him where he is and what is going on, especially what has gotten this ... creature ... intrigued.

    "He claims to be a doctor by profession, though his actions are that of anything but. He is tall, lives in a blue cottage. He is known to be quite tall and sometimes wear a bowtie. There's no reason to think he is trained to fight back, but he certainly is equipped to evade."


    "I'll take care of him once I'm done with the other thing." and proceeds to walk out the door to head south and east towards Begrina.

    The one-horned man narrowed his blazing, red eyes in apparently confusion, tilting his head to the side, "Well, not that recall. We lack drama or stress in these parts. We are content with what we have, what we know. If you would like to see more, we have villages where things still must be done. They are distant. You would be welcome to rest in the hammock in my families yard, if you seek a resting place, howev--"

    But just then he stopped speaking and turned his head to the east. Did he hear something?

    OOC: What was the card for? I couldn't give you a Challenge Rating due to uncertainty.


    OOC: The card was to make sure that if something (or someone) is casting spells (or lying to him, I guess you could say?) then there would be a repercussion of such.

    Looking at the horned creature, he looks where the horned creature is and then looks back at him.
