Someone explain to me how every time I tuned in this weekend, LSV was waxing nostalgic about how Grixis Shadow was the best deck and all the best players were playing it and none of them T8'ed?

How the Planeswalker redirection errata is likely going to work:
  • Targeted effects that only do damage (Lightning Bolt, Boros Charm) -> Updated to include planeswalkers
  • Untargeted Global Damage (Earthquake, Flame Rift) -> Tough poo poo, this no longer hits walkers
  • Untargeted Damage based on a second effect (Sulfuric Vortex, Searing Blood) -> Tough poo poo, this no longer hits walkers
  • Targeted damage that has a secondary effect (Skullcrack, Blightning) -> Tough poo poo, this no longer hits walkers

Nah. There's probably 5 or less cards that could go either way with a minimum level of common sense.

The fact that none of us can be confident in how they're going to errata things doesn't bode well for it being an intuitive change and not something we have to look up on a card-by-card basis when it comes up.

Basically, the entire rule is just going to be treated as if it never existed and about 5 actually played cards are going to see errata. It won't actually be that big a deal.

Someone has a 4th edition gift box in good shape with the little bag and instruction pamphlet and everything for $45 up on CL locally. Could be fun to pick up just to carry decks around in for a lark.

Thanks. The novelty of having the old 2-player gift box and token bag might be worth trying to talk them down five bucks. :v:


The listing says it's the old gift box plus "some boosters" so that maps.

I mean, it's not the worst pile. Nevinnyral's Disk, Mind Twist, Channel, Lightning Bolt, Tron pieces. It certainly hasn't been picked over.

Still, I feel like if Juzam were dropped into a set today having never existed, it would be an uncommon that wouldn't register as anything super special. You'd maybe take in draft if your other options weren't very good, but it wouldn't pull you into black on its own.

They've made more Juzams and they've been rare every time. Plague Sliver, Yukora, Phyrexian Scuta..

anyways gently caress haters she made day 2 and is an awesome magic player

I'm very torn, here. First, there's no room for harassment or exclusive behavior in magic. Full stop.

On the other hand, supporting Flip it/Rip It is a pretty clear indicator that you are brain damaged. So, if this is what it takes to make WotC say something about that, at least we might get something salvageable out of the situation.

Hot take: It was hers to rip. Who cares?

You can independently think that Flip it or Rip it is as much an exercise for the mentally unhinged as keying your own car while still acknowledging that harassment is inappropriate.
