can we know for certain

ALSO

force of will is ineffective against fair decks because you are putting yourself at card disadvantage to deal with one of their spells which plays into their gameplan



Define "fair" deck.

I think it means a deck that doesn't try to overextend itself with silly combos and crud. Or something?

Those fancy dual lands of ages past, simply because I want the relevant colors for my EDH decks.

I disagree, I think FoW works best against those unfair decks that try to go all in asap. Delver doesn't really care about free counters, but forcing a Birthing Pod or Ad Nauseum can really wreck a combo player's whole game.

I played against Caleb Durward the other day against his birthing pod deck. Burn doesn't beat a thragtusk with recurring nightmare in play.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. Bitches are notorious for their intelligence gathering.

The card I want to see most reprinted is Thragtusk.

That's right, I said it. Thragtusk.

It really is. I can finally pick up a playset for under $20 :D
I love rotation, it lets me get the cards I want for the price I'm willing to pay.

Bad Moon is a good call. Sadly, most of the rest of them would probably break Standard as it is now.

Lols, I thought he said effective, not ineffective. Or unfair instead of fair, I'm not sure. Either way, reading.

I don't think so. It'd be good to bring the focus of Magic back from RAAAAAAAGHHHH CREATURES BEAT FACE to some actual potent spellslinging.
