A golden helix streaked skyward from the Helvault. A thunderous explosion shattered the silver monolith and Avacyn emerged, free from her prison at last.

Yeah, but then I have to play standard. Eternal is just fine right now, I recommend it to anyone starting to burn out on constructed Magic.

I very much want to play Pioneer but I refuse to invest in MTGO or Paper except for Commander so I'm very excited for it.

I really, really wanna try playing Vintage just for the insane power level but I have no idea if that will ever come to Arena and :laffo: playing Vintage in paper.

It would be great if they for example took all the relevant cards from SOI and Eldritch Moon and sold full playset for a flat fee like they are doing with those historic cards. I’m just shocked their doing that at all and at $20 for me that’s a no brainer.

Still LOLing that they let some Mormon psycho come in and with a sub-fanfiction quality novel (and it's not like these things are fukkin' Proust in the first place) kick over the sandcastle they spent years building up to with "LOL J/K Chandra likes big throbbing cocks ONLY."

Alas, their love was doubly forbidden: Not only girl on girl, but fire wizard on forest mage.

E:
I can fix it:
"As Nicol Bolas' last curse, a weird hetronormative Mind Spell started to abate, Chandra felt her thoughts become clear. She realized that Gideon was a corny motherfucker and she got real thirsty to get extremely nude with the elf."

I've read some extracts of that novel he previously wrote and it's reads like something Epstein would write.

It’s even been fan-updated with new stuff. I got Shandalar 2015 but there’s probably something newer now. The computer never uses newer cards unless you edit their deck list files. It’s fun as hell!

Hey thats unfair. He may have written passages such as

“This girl they sent up really is young. It’s possible she’s not even sixteen. The traces of childhood are gone — the gangliness, the spindly limbs and neck, the overlarge eyes — but just barely. Her hips have hardly swollen enough to give her a waist, her breasts will still develop a little more. But God is she sexy.”

And yes almost all the sex is between adult men and pubescent girls but as Nic Kelman said, “Technically, all the girls in the book are legal.” .......:barf:
