:duel:Hey, I'm not the one who decided it was a good idea to include it in my 5CC for Hakumite. No need to get salty at me for playing it in the correct deck (although, admittedly, it is bad for the meta...but I've said that before).

I'm going to have a :pint: tonight to celebrate your homecoming and soon-to-be Moss free meta. After I play in the Showdown finals, of course.


I have no issue admitting I succumbed to a quasi-peer pressure and F-ed up my deck by hopping on the Moss(cancer/AIDS) train. I learned a lesson.

Who are you facing in the finals? I haven't been keeping up bc Moss and RDW being involved in every match is about as fun to watch as Barney's Bukkake Adventures in Shanghai volume 7.

I know we're trying to cater to the short-attention-spanned, ADHD-plagued, neanderthal-IQ Duels fans.. who obviously can't be bothered to suffer 3 minutes of sideboarding, with commentary on the rational of the changes. It's apparently way too next level for them.

Wow. Just ... wow.


What? That's not MY opinion.. but it's seems to be the message being sent. The 'powers that be' Don't want sideboarding bc it 'slows down the flow' or 'is uninteresting' to their target audience. So.. what does that say about their audience? To me it says: A) They are simpletons who are too dumb to appreciate the strategy involved, or B) They have the attention span of a 6-year old watching Spongebob Squarepants. Why else would they 'tune out' and go watch She's_Dragonborn if that weren't the case?

@Kryder: Get off my lawn with your Moss.. tard.

@DJ: I been reading the SOI thread religiously, and I think you crap on way too many playable cards.


Are you sure you aren't confusing me with someone else. I don't really remember crapping on any cards yet. Except maybe 13ophobia, but that wasn't really about its playability.

Just an observation, when you guys quote stuff, you know you can edit out the non-relevant part right?

You also don't have to quote everything that everyone else said lol.

Nobody noticed that beast went off on an "intelligent" rant and failed to spell "rationale" correctly? Sigh.

@DJ, in Beast's world, every card is playable. Even Storm Crow.

Well.. I found this "They can push it all they want, I'll still think it's kind of lame, lol." when discussing Investigate.. then went back 10 pages (which is like 3 days ago cards) and saw the Herald of the Pantheon argument.. which was more of your crusade vs rarity restrictions. Speaking of.. I'm glad they exist, bc I don't want to face turn 4 Gideon even more than I already have to.. especially since if the restrictions were removed.. the number of possible plays like that would be like 5 to 1 vs the available planeswalker removal.

+1 for the spelling ding.. you got me.

FWIW: I don't think Hedron Alignment is playable. :thumbsup: and I think that new red Mythic 4/9 with haste is pretty putrid. I like the 5/5 Wolf though.. a little.

Is madder a word? Shouldn't it be 'more mad?' Should the question mark be inside the apostrophes or outside them? Should I have used quotation marks instead? Should I have put a comma in front of the apostrophe before 'more?' Did I do it wrong again?

It depends on how many syllables are in the word being modified by the comparitive. "Mad" only has one syllable so "madder" is fine.

As for the rest, you edited it in after my response.

Good luck guys. 9 days after the expansion hits I'll be still like "wtf does that card do" every time the opponent plays something, much less ready to present a competitive deck. But good news, gruul ramp will be good as new, just throw in some Reality Smashers and the new Chandra :V

New Chandra <3 <3 <3 <3

So.. I was watching the pro tour the other day.. I think they were in Seattle. The guy who won was rocking an Azorious deck with Ancient Crab, Ghostly Sentinel, Courier Griffen.. and a bunch of cards we have that we consider pretty trashy (Negate looked solid though lol). His opponent was like, Abzan Allies rocking a bunch of cohort cards like Zulaport Chainmage and stuff like that. It got me thinking.. maybe, just maybe.. with the old sets rotating out.. we might just catch up to the power level of standard one day. Bc.. those decks that made top two.. looked like hammered chit compared to what I normally see on the Pro Tour. Maybe it was pauper or something.. I dunno..

Who are you facing in the finals? I haven't been keeping up bc Moss and RDW being involved in every match is about as fun to watch as Barney's Bukkake Adventures in Shanghai volume 7.


We start the finals this weekend. Currently, it is me, Yondar, Boh, and Spaunshadie in the top 4 (by my count, I could be off, but I'm 5-0 and they are all 4-1). The last 4 slots are between Legend, Pact, Grimric, Darkshock, StepUp, Terazin, Light, Qasim, Radomname, and Lionheart. Who it is will be dependent on Legend/Pact and Light/Qasim games that need to be played and all the different tiebreakers.

And then a booster draft for the top 8?
