Horse should typically be 10 power for 5 mana over 2 creatures in the right deck. At least it can trigger more than once.

But I don't play magic so

I know people care what I gotta say but I haven't played LOL since 2011 and I still put that poo poo on to watch before magic and I still play magic.

Magic is hard to watch.

I was! The kids who beat me felt great, and I was a gracious loser (and a gracious winner). I made everybody shake hands and say good game after every match.

Gotta stop those boys and girls from being grognards ~somehow~.

My favorite loss I was during a 1v1v1. I was gonna drop hoof and win on my next turn, but one of them had a grislebrand out and equipped a fireshrieker on it. They hit me for 14, and the other kid took control of it on their turn and hit me for another 14. A goofy, enjoyable way to lose.

I mean hard to really be a gracious loser if you only lose 3 times over a thousand matches.

People can learn when winning too, especially if it's clear there's a deckbuilding discrepancy that's causing one person to win 99.7% of the time.

That thing read like a logic problem based on knowing the color pie. It made sense based on the instructions even if it’s dumb.

Talk about decks and poo poo so I can continue following mtg while not playing in a long time.

What's the Magic scene like around Nashville? I'm moving there in a couple weeks and I'm pretty casual and mostly into limited. Any good LGSes to check out? Thanks!

I stopped playing magic when I moved here a couple years ago cause of how bad it is. The store in Madison is fine, there’s nothing in Nashville proper unless I’m a serious idiot.

It’s not a good magic city except it’s a great conference city so they do gps and poo poo here!!

I can only assume GR is going to be legit with Elves, an invincible Phoenix and a 5/4 for 3 loving mana.

I kinda hope so and I kinda hope it's cheap.

The last two standard decks I played were g/r monsters in theros/rtr and b/r aggro in the same era and I liked them a lot. That was such a good time for magic looking back.

I'm intrigued to see how the sagas work since they fire off turns after being played. Seems like it could lead to some big blowouts if cards in hand and saga end up aligning nicely on a turn.

Seems like they're cards where you take a half measure one turn to take a measure and a half on the next two turns.

edit:

isn't there a white one that gives you two knights and then knights get +2/+1 on the last turn? 2 2/2 knights and a pump is legit for 3 mana, even if it's over multiple turns.

Yeah but Time of Ice dies two turns after you cast it.

Ya and if they tap any other creature the turn before it hits the 3rd level then it bounces them too. Seems like a nice deterrent.

What if they used some of that money to hold more tournaments across a greater variety of cities so people got more excited by playing in bigger tournaments and were better able to. Lowering traveling costs and giving people more options would probably help the game.

Just a thought, maybe I have no clue what I’m talking about.

Feels like you could mix threshold and dredge into something where a card gets the benefit from "threshold" but the cards have to get exiled. When this reaches threshold, you may exile that many cards from the graveyard and thing happens.
