That shaman is hilariously bad, but I hope they push the power level on at least one of these commands since they're not monocolored spells.

Bugsy posted:Seeing as Biorhythm is banned what is the likeliness that this dude will also be banned? Despite joking around earlier, I don't think Shaman is utter garbage, but I also think tapping for 3 mana is a lot better than tapping for 2 so I don't know that I'd compare it 1-1 to Somberwald Sage. This is assuming the biorhythm ability is going to be useless 99% of the time.

You can only have one on the battlefield so why would you ever want more than one in your deck?

Starving Autist posted:Because you'd like to actually draw it in your opening hand in a decent number of games. You don't want 4, since drawing multiples sucks, but only having 1 isn't that great either since you won't get to open with it very much. OH

I wish they just replaced the pack-per-win queues with the 6-3-2-2's for everything, since the only real point of the swiss is getting to play three rounds.

mcmagic posted:I ran Sadisi Whip at the SCG NJ the day after KTK was released and I've been playing it on and off since and I pretty much made all the changes Reid did to the deck (I'm probably taking about 71 of his 75 to an IQ this weekend.) When a player much better than me improves a deck I'm playing why the hell wouldn't I want to take advantage of that knowledge? Isn't the goal to give yourself a better chance to win? "Reid Duke did it" isn't a good argument. Why those choices were made is the discussion you should be having. Why did you make those changes to play 71/75 of his cards, instead of 75? You must have a reason, right? If you can't articulate these things and just fall back on "no really it's better, learn from the pros, man" there's no reason anyone should ever pay attention to you.

Toshimo posted:Look, fuckers. I know it's hip and edgy to poo poo on anyone who exhibits anything less than perfection on stream, but these dudes did fly halfway around the world to compete on camera. Sometimes dudes get jet lagged or have personal poo poo going on or or just have a bad loving day. Chapin is a known criminal, but in the context of loving Wizard Poker, I've not heard a lot of bad poo poo about him (as opposed to someone like Dezani). So, why don't you guys just clam the gently caress down for a minute and talk about some Ojutais and Silumgars and other cool loving dragons and let the dude who got a game loss for loving up and had some other assorted bad-play-itis have his bad loving day to himself. Christ. PUT HIM IN JAIL
