    I may get torn a new one here, but I would recomend throwing in Utopia Sprawl instead of the Birds. I realize that you can use Cytoshape with the birds for a +0/+1 and flying until the end of turn, but I find there are much better uses for Cytoshape than that, and Utopia Sprawl does a much better job of staying on the table. Plus, Im broke, and would rather run cheaper cards Grin

    This is probably a very silly question, but I felt I must ask to be 100% sure. When you activate Omnibians ability, does the targeted creatures still have all of its abilities? One would assume so, since it doesnt say anything to the contrary, but I have often found my assumptions to be incorrect. (Im looking for more easy ways to eliminate those pesky Kamigawa dragons :))

    Why limit it to Mono-U? IMO, U/G control is going to be flat sick. With twincast, eternal witness, and the brand new green card that makes witness go retarded, stampeding serow. Heck, combine the serow, witness, and the blue flip card, and you could be countering 2 of your opponents spells every turn, without losing any cards. Yay for U/G!

    Well, SPiritual Visit has me really pumped. Can't wait to see the rest of the set so i cant decide what colors my spiritcraft deck will be. At this point W/G is looking the most appealing, but im a big fan of b/g and am holding out to see what the 8BBGG card is. *crosses fingers*

    Was going to flame you, but it's really not worth my time. All I can say is that the fakers don't even have pride in faking anymore... new account, 2 posts, unnameable source, and extremely dubious cards. I don't see them reprinting the Hippie anytime soon (if ever) and Verdant Force... well, they haven't printed anything that stompy for ages. If you are right (which I somehow highly doubt, for all the reasons listed) then my apologies. Until proven though, I'm going to have to say blatant fake.

    Not sure if anyone has been smart enough to catch this yet, but with all the speculation about the 4 "onto" and 8 "splice"... each splice card says splice twice. It says splice into arcane, and then in the reminder text it says "... pay its splice cost..." So there will only be four splice cards. That makes me sad =(

    Does the orb include flavor text in its search?

  • posted a message on [RAV] Mechanics?
    First of all, this is quite early to be hearing such detailed info about the next set, when we arent even sure what the keywords will be for SoK, and second of all, these abilities seem a little on the powerful side. The first one allows green to go flat retarded, what with its mana accel, it would be able to play one card for free, and then 2 or 3 more with the mana it had stowed up. The second ability seems too obscene as well, as any card I could think of for it would be broken. Giving all fliers bonuses? Broken. Giving all tramplers bonuses? Broken. Imagine someone playing a flier deck, and all their fliers getting +2/+2 or something like that. Or a trample deck where everything gets buffed. I am very skeptical of this, especially seeing that we don't even have this kinda info on SoK yet. 1/10 for believability.

  • posted a message on [SOK] New mechanic: "Sweep"
    Doesn't sound too broken, and is a viable keyword, but one would think that they would make a keyword that interacted more with the themes of Kamigawa so far... and there are only a few cards right now that let you play extra lands during your turn. I'm inclined to think this isn't real, due to the fact that its flavor doesn't seem to fit with the current block. Then again, WoTC has done wierder things than this before. Until proof otherwise, id say 30/70, real/fake.

  • posted a message on [SOK] Arcanic Drone {FAKE}
    Well... the source is kindof doubtable, but at least you told us who it was from. That way, when it turns out to be fake, we won't have to eat your children. Thank you for not saying "this is from a trustable source, blah blah blah..." and telling the truth.

  • posted a message on Umezawa's Jitte vs. Sword of Fire and Ice
    I would have to say Jitte is better. Not only does it cost an initial 2 instead of 3 to play, it also has more versatility, and just goes nuts on a Skyhunter Skirmisher. A Skirmisher with a Jitte kills someone the second time it hits them. 'Nuff said.

  • posted a message on oppresed will in mono u
    Not in Standard, it won't be used. If you have enough cards in your hand for it to be effective in the first place, you should have a better card to counter whatever threat they are throwing at you. Overall, it was a nice idea for a card, but I don't see it being that useful.
