How long have Magic streams had these dynamic cards in hand lists? It's really nice, I can follow what's happening way easier.

Pretty good night of Magic; went 4-1 for the second time in a row at FNM with Rabble Red (the first time I've ever done so well) and traded for another Fulminator Mage for Living End (for 3 total once mcmagic's letter comes in, hopefully).

That Azorius Soul Blade deck looks pretty sweet; I might try to build it since it's not super-expensive other than the manabase.

Picked up the two I wanted for Modern at $2 apiece, cracked a third from an impulse booster last week. Guess I should have taken it all the way and finished the playset right there...

Sub-slighed my way into 2nd place the second FNM in a row; I feel really comfortable with the deck now, and it's beginning to make a name for itself. One guy has already tried to copy it, though he's using a significantly slower decklist which includes Rabblemasters and 8 fetches for DECK THINNING :lol: and another guy who took first I'd handily beaten two games before the tournament, but he eeked past with a 2-1 after I pulled a really lovely mulligan, then he did, then even though we both drew almost perfectly he won because of loving Courser of Kruphix and lands for daaays. I don't think there was a single turn he missed a drop, and I couldn't beat the life gain.

There was one guy, who I swung at for 27 turn 4, then he Congregated for like 12 during combat, which brought him to like a net total of 3 life. His only play his turn was End Hostilities, and then he passed while tapped out. I had no hand, but had scryed twice from Titan's Strength last turn. I windmill-slammed a Lightning Strike off the top of my deck for maximum smugness.

e: Firedrinker Satyr loving sucks (in my local meta), and I sideboard him so often that I'm probably going to start main-decking two Stokes and two Magma Jets instead of them. I wouldn't care if he either didn't have the Jackal Pup effect, or had real Firebreathing.

I remember the first time I drafted Khans, a Dig Through Time got passed all the way around. Now its a gazillion dollars.

I was the one to open it and picked it up when it got back to me. I was playing Azban

I figured $5 was about the right place for Dig Through Time because it's a good card.

drat, maybe I should have jumped on that $18 foil Dig I got offered after the prerelease...TCG still has some regular copies around $10, worth it to round out my playset or just hope I crack a fourth?

Anger of the Gods and Doomwake Giant are both up a good amount, but they aren't like "5-10 times their previous block" prices yet.

Shout out to the guy on the MTG Salvation forums that started the W/U Heroic deck thread I'm currently posting in over there that just replied to one of my posts explaining he didn't understand until I explained it in the thread how the Ordeals work.
