    Huh? No, they're bad because he doesn't know how to build (good) decks.


    Umm you should take a look at your own decks. Every single one is a steaming pile of feces. To further illustrate this point, whenever I need a laugh, I click on your Titan AE deck in your signature.
    Maybe you should take a Flores deck and shuffle it up at a PTQ. Or a Regionals. Have a friend shuffle up one of your decks (like any of those in your signature) at the same event. Empirical results will show who is a good deckbuilder.
    Fact: Flores has put somebody into the T8 of US nats 3 times in the past four years.
    Fact: he sports a 1900+ constructed rating
    Fact: you can claim--and probably will NEVER claim--either of these. Shut up and stop hating.

    my 75 was perfectly tuned for every match. you'll see it posted with the regionals results tomorrow. my only loss was to drawing an ungodly amount of lands to glare.

    2nd. It was easy.

    Otwell podcasted it for mtgcast.com, with me predicting first for myself and saying anything less would be a disapointment. What a ballsack.

    solar flare is poop. mss' are easier to win than FNM's. calm down on the ego trip bud.
    I'm playing zoo, cause I have a t8 to defend and want something that can 1) just randomly win 2)has game versus everything 3) beats dredge and gruul.

    read my sig. somebody figured it out.

    also, the combination of letters to create frucile are the most connotatively pleasing, since you think of futile. Which is fun.

    just play the list feldman suggested on starcity. or just copy paste my 3rd place finish from denvers ptq. then squeeze in some disenchants and take out the engineered explosives for the new drop o honey in the board and you're good to go.

    @mamelon . . . . that's what I'm saying. More or less--I don't think that the definitions of God and power need defining. My stance is that the arguments from the side for God become inherently devoid of any sort of ability for an evolved stance once they assume God. Thus, in the interest of the debate sidestepping falling into arbitrariness I brought it up. I could care less about the topic itself--just wanted to keep the debate pure on the abstract level.

    just because you argue against something doesn't mean that the argument has already rendered itself useless. people still argue with the premises that Ayn Rand created for Ethical Egoism despite their being arbitrary. This is the same thing. I just wish to point out the need for a distinction here to keep the debate's intergrity intact. Perhaps just an agreement from both sides that we are still on the level that when we speak of God that we mean in a manner consistant if he were to exist.
    It's merely a logical formality--I've had too much real debate in school for me to ignore things like this anymore.

  • posted a message on [Official Thread] Ravager Affinity
    I decided to run stifle in Ravanger after a friend borrowed the deck for a Vintage tourny. We added it in his board to help the near impossible grim long match at the time. we guessed they would side out duress, and then attempt to tendrils the win only to have their perfect storm ruined. since then i've loved the stifles in the deck--everything from fetches, deeds, and storm cards crumble in it's wake.
    i like the p needle as well though--but i dropped it for Tormod's Crypt once it was released in TS. Crypt stops Friggorrid, Tog, Teps, any Loam deck, and Gifts Rock dead in their tracks as well as helping affinity for artifacts.
    Tieing this in with being the proactive deck--or the beatdown, if you will: by having answers to the cards/strategies that hose you makes it easier for ravanger to actually beat down.

    Is it just me or do those defending the notions of God keep saying "God is X" or "God created Y" as opposed to the more acurate phrasing of "God would have created Y" or "God would be X". By failing to do so, you assume God. By assuming God, you end the argument becuase of the very definition of what God is via Christian faith. Thus--we have no point to argue since it becomes arbitrary (see James Rachels' argument against Ethical Egoism for a comparision to this if confused--it'll explain it better than I). Change the language or don't bother attempting to argue.

    I'm working on a collection of poetry (mostly haiku) that I would love to see both published and reclaimed. Essentially, within my life I want my work to be taught as relevant literature.
