I actually really enjoyed UR Delver before Cruise, and in fact disliked Cruise so much that I sold my online cards out of anger when the deck changed. Now I'm sad I can't play it anymore :(

Oh well, TES is pretty fun anyway

Showing up to an event with a janky mono-coloured tribal deck and crushing people whose decks cost more than a car is The True Legacy Experience.

As a burn player, I agree with most of this.

I hope someone actually does this. I'd be so happy to see this. I'd still rage when I inevitably ran into them and lost because I didn't draw my 20-outer for 8 turns though.

I'll see if I can get it in sometime tonight after 7 PM EST or so. This is the final build week of the FRC robotics competition, so my free time is tight. Messaging me on steam is the easiest way to contact me.

5 minutes of actual play time, 20 minutes of going off.
Speaking of, did anyone see Bob Maher going off on VSL last night?

It involved crucible of worlds, zuran orb, fastbond combo, but he had to use yawg will to assemble it and then cast time walk to use the extra turn to get around yawg will's exile effect, then looking at his entire library several times over with sdt before finding his win condition.

It was the most glorious 10 minutes of nothing happening. This week was much better than the last one, which I thought was super boring. "Oh look, Belcher. Again. How interesting."

And LSV this week. :allears:

Doesn't Cockatrice work on iOS? I know I used to play with a guy who played on a mac and had an iPad, but I don't remember if he played on the laptop or the iPad.

Also I hope this works out because otherwise that's the second week in a row I don't actually get to play anybody. :(

Shouldn't we take a dozen swans out, too? He hasn't posted in this since posting his decklist.

No need to apologize. There's really no reason I can't just play casual matches against whoever instead of scheduled matches against opponents, I'm just being lazy.

Confirming this, ggs. I would've stuck around and tried practicing that matchup a bit but I have errands to run. Don't mean to discredit you and blame the misclick mulligan either, you played well and my inexperience with the deck started showing.

Its pretty much a clunkier version of MTGO, I know that is hard to imagine. The only really weird thing is that you always retain priority after declaring an action and its not very forgiving about undoing mana usage.
Play a game against the not and you should be good to go.
