There's no reason to ban batterskull in Modern even if you unban stoneforge

I could swear I've played Joe Lossett at my LGS, but he lives in California, not Ohio. Maybe every LGS has a nerd that looks like him?

Kolaghan's Command wrecks Batterskull and kills the SFM too. It's not as big of a dealbreaker in Legacy due to Force/Daze and BR just not being that hot there.

If anything Stoneforge would do more for creature decks (which are kind of in a bad place right now unless they're Jund). Chording for one at EoT sounds like a fun time.

Also, kind of late to this, but: Meren, Daxos, Mizzix, ....Ezuri?, and that's barely a spike. Also Meren

Kolaghan's command is a major problem because most of the decks that Batterskull is meant to be good against have it.

I've decided with the new year that my MTGO days are done. I converted all my cards to tickets, but now I don't know what to do. Does anyone have experience selling tickets? I have no idea what buyers are safe for this, but right now I leaning toward selling everything to GoatBots, since they feel fairly legit.

MTGO Traders will give you 95 cents per ticket (which doesn't count paypal fees). You send a message to a guy named "MTGO TRADERS" and he'll explain what to do and do the whole transaction. They basically just verify your paypal account (if you've ever bought stuff from them you don't need to do this) and then send the money. I've done it a few times, so I can convert tickets to cash in less than 10 minutes. I've done it 3 or 4 times (which should explain a lot about my willpower to stay away from MTGO, but I keep making big profits off of crazy spikes like K-Comm or Jace, so I have yet to lose money on MTGO). GoatBots doesn't buy tickets in lots of less than 1000 unless they've changed their stance recently and they only send money by international bank transfers. They're also only selling at .90 per ticket right now. Angry Grimace fucked around with this message at 20:28 on Jan 2, 2016 |

Craig seems OK. There's been a few awkward moments and he and Cedric are still trying to find a rhythm. Mostly because Craig is very serious when he's not joking, and very deadpan when he is joking.

If you're a new customer I think you have to buy the item on their website so that it sets up an account (it gets completely refunded, its just for verifying paypal info). If you're a repeat customer or whatever, they don't make you do this and you just directly PM the guy - I never had to do that because I had bought stuff from their site before (they sell singles at a slight discount and that guy was the person who delivered it).

Wasteland with City of Brass's drawback. Tec Edge without an activation cost. Quarum Trench Gnomes's ability on a land. Complete with "Use Counters" wording. Okay, maybe not. Dust Bowl.
