If they got the old artists to do modern takes on their old art, without the restrictive house art style, I would be really excited. But as it stands, it will likely be all your old favorite cards with new style art so that they are unrecognizable. However if they did a modern/old border hybrid thing somehow, like timeshifted cards, that would be extremely up my alley.

Mark Tedin is a cool guy, he shows up to most big events in the northwest. I asked him why he hasn't been featured on more cards recently and apparently Wizards just stopped calling

Mr.Turbofog is right, you have to bring a deck that is tested in the meta to have a chance. Take your funhaving, nonsense budget deck somewhere else.

I don't think this does anything, as neither Angel's Grace or Phyrexian unlife are damage prevention effects.

clamiam45 posted:It's clear to me now that Nicol Bolas's plan all along has been to destroy standard. I would legit love it if there were some Grant Morrison-esque deal where Bolas had learned that he was a character in a poorly written story and his master plan was to destroy it from the inside by preventing people from playing.

Fuzzy Mammal posted:Yeah at least we have legacy. Go Jordan! The Legacy (and to a lesser extent the Modern) 1K's were a direct result of SCG ditching the west coast entirely though, so we traded a twice yearly large event for a series of smaller, monthly events. I think it is actually a fair trade, as there is better food at both MBH locations than there would be at a convention center. Tainen posted:Gotta get on the Pauper. There was a big tournament last weekend in Seattle and there is another one in 2 weeks in Bellevue. I watched a bit of it on twitch and it looked pretty fun. I did this on Saturday, I thought Bogles would be a fun deck to play. It is not a fun deck and I hated it. Cactrot fucked around with this message at 18:30 on May 8, 2017 |

Hellsau posted:Why would you think Bogles would be fun to play? It's the least fun deck in Modern, and it's not like it gets anything more fun from Pauper. I'd never played the deck in any format, but attacking with large dumb creatures seemed like fun, and it was cheap and simple. I made a grave error on how enjoyable it would actually be to play though.

little munchkin posted:if its any consolation, your opponents had even less fun than you did Most fun of the day was actually after dropping from the tournament and picking up a few of the Card Kingdom Battle Decks. A friend and I each picked a random Battle Deck, shuffled them up and played them without looking at any of the cards in them. They're well balanced against each other and a blast to play with.

So if I'm playing Legacy and Modern in Vegas I have to bring two different deck boxes rather than one double deck box. Or use different sleeves. Daang.

Foma posted:Off the top of my head, you set the goals and metrics to the expectations you want. If you want to see less banned cards and a more diverse standard you separate banning from R&D and you judge their employee evaluations off those metrics. I personally would not set to those metrics because you meet them by making a boring weak set. I have been inundated with business / management speak for too long, because this made perfect sense to me

Tainen posted:There are a lot of seattle people in here. I might have to head out to Card Kingdom soon. As a new player I am really interested in the Amonkhet league they have starting Sunday night but it's kind of a far drive (Tacoma area) and it really isn't worth it if there are not a bunch of other people also doing it. I went to a few of my local shops and no one ever showed up during the event times to do it. I don't think I'm overstating it when I say that both Card Kingdom (Now Mox Boarding House Seattle) and Mox Boarding House Bellevue are the best game stores within five hundred miles, maybe the entire west coast?

Dehtraen posted:What's the right wording on the +2? I've seen people saying it is "non-land card" and others saying it is "creature card," if it is creature card that card will be busted vs the normal control decks in standard where they're running 4 creatures preboard and maybe 7 creatures post board - exile their lands, counters, draw spells and steal their finisher. Seems to say Non-land card.

Dehtraen posted:If they ban anything right before GP Vegas I'm assuming there will be some pissed off people there. Not like there ever is a time when bannings won't piss people off but If they do people will be scrambling to the vendors at Vegas for cards to play in the standard event They would be hilariously dumb to announce a new modern/legacy banning right before a GP and not have them become effective the following Monday. So I do actually expect this to happen.
