I still find the BW eldrazi deck way more fun to play, and it has a reasonable matchup against Death's Shadow. The tons of hand disruption is good against most decks and Death's Shadow really hates when you cast Lingering Souls.

The first names of most Magic characters are names that exist in the real world. Even Naya is one of them.

I've got a maindeck Blood Baron of Vizkopa in Little Kid Abzan because I'm not sure how Death's Shadow beats it Game 1, at least not Grixis DS. I actually had someone talking up Liliana's Defeat as a Modern SB card since there are also multiple Lilis played in Modern. Too bad it's only sorcery speed.

MTG daughter namechat : I feel a little weird for remembering this but David Williams's daughter is also named Liliana. She would hang out with him while he streamed (which he would occasionally do many years ago) and was super adorable

So there is rumblings that efro just got fired for selling fake graded power. Please let it be true. I am pretty sure that is the type of fraud that the cops might actually be interested in.

Jace was one of the potential names I wanted to name my son for years before he came out in Lorwyn, now I know I'd just hate him if I did.

Lone Goat posted:We're way past the point of a woman making GBS threads all over Jon Finkel, Magic is big time now. The Article posted:This story sounds mean. It's about a girl judging a boy because he's a nerd (like so many of us!) that she met on OkCupid. But that's the point: Judging people on shallow stuff is human nature, and the magic and absurdity of online dating is how immediately and directly it throws that into relief. One person's Magic is another person's fingernail biting, and no profile in the world is deep enough to account for that. I shouldn't feel bad about being a piece of poo poo because, on an unconscious level, we're all pieces of poo poo.

AlternateNu posted:I"m super close to maindecking Celestial Purge and Dark Betrayal in my respective decks just to gently caress with people and see how many call a judge on me game 1. I put Celestial Purge in the SB of my Burn deck a while back, mostly when Nahiri control was all over the place. I then took it out once I realized that I just wanted plain creature removal - i.e., Path. I've been thinking of putting it back in lately since it hits pretty much every main threat in Grixis DS.

I feel bad for insulting a woman 6 years after the fact, considering she's probably changed a bunch, but the answer to someone saying "man, you're a piece of poo poo" should never be "so are you though!" Considering how the Magic community reacted to this article (I'll give you a clue, it's how nerds react to women involved in ANYTHING even remotely 'nerdy'), while I don't fault you for calling that addition out, her being flawed kinda pales in comparison, and they should definitely be called out about it.

Nah gently caress her. Finkel is better than anyone in the world at something and he is also a good guy who actually cares about poo poo and does good in the world. What she did was uncalled for and mean.

I am a generic spike who plays the best deck I don't go to turns on, and generally like how it plays. I preferred how Jund played but Grixis is more powerful. Weirdly I'm usually one of a small handful of people on the deck, and the meta at the 2 LGS's I attend a few times a month is pretty wide open.
