There was a guy who had a hilarious red title because he was going on and on about the color pie and why green should never have flying. Every time i read color pie I think "lisa needs braces."

What goon gets that angry about conversations about reprints of cardboard wizard poker cards? Come on man, this entire hobby is built on people with way too much money to spend on frivolous things.

What goon gets that angry about conversations about reprints of cardboard wizard poker cards? Anger is relative, and you don't have to be that angry at someone to buy them some red text on the Something Awful internet forums. There have been some times when I thought about buying a custom title for some of the more persistent cardboard libertarians, but that money would probably be better spent on 1/30th of an Underground Sea. :iamafag:

People in this thread will get mad at every conceivable stimulus, so the things that make people maddest are just the things that come up with any regularity. My assumption is that JerryLee's sin was just talking about it more than once.

I'm always kinda baffled people browse with titles at all. I just turn everything off. Pure textual discourse. JerryLee's title is a fail anyway since it should be a picture of a drat ugly Shadowmoor Kithkin. rabidsquid posted:i am surprised it was for the reserve list and not complaining about good mana in standard

Yesterday at an event I'm at 6, my burn opponent is at 7. I have lethal on the board for my next turn. His play is: Float 2, fire blast you I force pitching brainstorm He pyroblasts force I force pitching daze on the firestorm again He goes float 2 (3 total) fireblast again I go divert fireblast to you? He marks it down on his sheet. " I have you at 3 and me at 4 now?" "Yeah". "My turn?" "Yeah" Untap, win, explain how divert works. I had hit him with divert in game 2 as well but he had been tapped out then so when I explained the card I guess he ignored the pay 2 part and just assumed that if I was playing divert it was a good play (it was my only play). I didn't feel bad at all. Everyone makes mistakes and punts. You are punting in every game you play, it just isn't always obvious and the margins may be smaller. Kid still got to crush a lot of dreams and make it into top 8 with me too so it worked out for him in the end.

Its a really flexible deck and I always feel like if I lose it was either because I made a mistake, be it side boarding, mulliganning wrong, or forgetting poo poo. Like aether vial triggers, word of advice, until you constantly remember to add your charge counters to vial on upkeep, put a die on top of your deck so you remember to tick it up. Missed vial triggers have cost me games a lot of times and I've learned my mistake. Edit: Also, if you find yourself staring down Affinity, gird your loins and prepare for a smackdown of the highest calibur. It's definitely not the best matchup, but it isn't a bye for them anymore, no sir. Count Bleck fucked around with this message at 01:46 on Mar 16, 2015 |

Sweet match between Mono Red and Jeskai Aggro on the Open stream. So close by the mono red player, but at the same time navigated so well. Incredible match!

Every time someone on here talks about Merfolk I want to build it, but I'm sworn to my one true tribal love of Goblins and don't play enough Modern to justify buying into the deck. I'm already trying to pick up a Cavern of Souls playset for Legacy so maybe after I get those? Also I had a fever dream at work the other day and came up with this Modern Slivers deck which is kind of like Merfolk I think? A more narrow-minded Merfolk that can also pretend to be Infect.

G/W Slivers is actually pretty decent in Pauper if you have MTGO and want to get your competitive Slivers on.

Has it been said what happens if an exploit creature comes in and is killed in response to it's trigger. "May sac a creature" goes on the stack, but won't this prevent the second trigger for doing so?

If the player does sac something, then the creature isn't around for the "When Dudeman exploits a creature" trigger.

Do you know how many red decks you could build for the cost of one custom title. Don't be crazy man edit: i like to think this thread wouldn't generate a lot of those. there are a lot of arguments but i don't think it's that deadly serious, at least i hope not.

If there is any justice in the world Yuuya is going to CRUSH. This is the craziest draft deck I have ever seen. He could build two mardu decks I think and they'd both be ok.

I didn't watch the GP until round 14, skipped 15 for quarters of the open T8, then back for the T8 draft of the GP. Edit: oh my god Andrew Cuneo. Raided Howl of the Horde on Tormenting Voice for 6 cards. He has a Jeskai Barricade in hand to bounce his Warden of the Eye to get Howl back.

Cuneo was streaming on I think Thursday and he pulled the Tormenting Howl play, and I think everyone in the chat had been telling him to cut Howl from his deck.

Someone also got one for crying about using foreign language cards, I thought. It might have been the same person, actually - I think the foreign card thing started because he supposedly couldn't tell the difference between Tarns and Steam Vents or something.

I mean there is a reason Cuneo is part of team Pantheon. He's pretty good about trying out stuff that would otherwise be overlooked. He also invented the Elixir decks everyone hated.
