Dies to Removal

I feel lucky to have smoking friends not push their habits on me. They know it's bad for you, so if you say you don't smoke, they understand immediately.

Christen

Oh I meant finals was Mono Red vs MBD splashing green.

Christen

There was a high profile tournament here last week (which I wasn't able to attend due to schedule conflicts). Top 8 looked like this:

RG Mihara vs RDW
MBD vs MBD
MUD vs MUD
MUD vs Esper

Finals was RDW and MUD/g. Guess who won.

Christen

Veronique Zendikar Mountains are my favorite.

If you use Annihilating Fire on a Boros Reckoner, will he still be able to redirect damage? And what if they in respond Boros Charm him to make him indestructible, then he won't be exiled and able to redirect damage? Thanks in advance To clarify further. Damage from permanent sources that is not in...

Congratulationg Khaos!

Christen

I would put a Clan Defiance in there somewhere since you have the potential to generate so much mana.

Christen

Goodness gracious, the meat looks so scrumptious my heart is already complaining just from looking at it.

Christen

5'8" and I'd look small standing next to you guys. Currently 230 and I need to slim down.

Christen

You have a low chance of getting a genuinely bad pool. The only real excuse is your opponents having better pools.

Christen

> get dropped with Primeval Bounty all 3 games in a match in turn 6 or 5
> win game 1, board in enchantment destruction
> never draw it in game 2 and 3

No luck for me for that game, and it was to determine who gets a spot in top 8 too =/

Christen

tl;dr, if you think it's roulette, quite playing or get better. I experienced M14 sealed with literally no good rares but still went 5-2 (GPT). Inevitably, I lost to the better pools. Luck is still a big factor, but I won't deny that you need plenty of deck construction and card analysis skills to ...

Christen

Sealed is a reality players have to face since it's actually a format being played at GP/T and PTQs. I wish limited tournaments were just draft tables.

Sealed is a good excuse for opening 6 boosters though and potentially getting more.

Christen

Sealed is ok, but affected too much by luck. Theros sealed is also bomb-y given the lack of spot removal.

Christen

Do not play more than 2 copies of your creatures if you can help it.

Christen

I played this against my test group and I didn't win even once with a recent Boros Midrange deck pre-board. Does it straight up lose game 1? Game 2 seems to be better though still hard. The said list: [deck] Creatures 4 Archangel of Thune 1 Aurelia, the Warleader 4 Boros Reckoner 2 Ember Swallower S...

Christen

Just got through with a 3.5 hour session.

I think I'm in love with this deck.

Is there anyway to fit in Jace here? He does work in this meta.

Christen

Women are my favorite kind of women. But men are the best kind of women, they don't get pregnant. Pregnancy is easily remedied anyway, no worries there. http://gyazo.com/1b747070732756f896b3ede8513f6ff5.png By racing?

I broke the forum. Leaving it for the admins to see and fix.

Figures. That's like chest level for you.

Razor sharp hats remind me of Speedwagon from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.

Met girl in person at LGS. Confirmed woman, was even wearing skinny jeans, so confirmed vagina attached. Very short though. Like, 5'0" short. Eh. But short is good! Though not midget-short, that would be weird. Not really my thing. :shrug: How tall are you though? While I like shorter girls I'...

Christen

Needing double-colored costs in 2 different colors by turn 3 is harder to execute in this format.

Christen

Guy at my local store claimed that "If you're not putting Boon Satyr on Frostburn Weird , you don't have a clear grasp of the format." Pretty sure he's talking out his ass, but I can't really read the guy. Is there anything behind his claim? Aside from him having an ambitious mana base? I...

Christen

Flat would have been ok, but the hips don't lie, so yeah. Yeah they do. I have "child bearing" hips (and an ass that won't quit) and i'm a dude. My ass and hips are big to the point where I have to where I have to wear women's jeans because my other options are rip the ass out of properly...

Christen

Really? I was pretty sure they said it was a girl.
Yeah, I don't see any tits or hips, man.

Flat would have been ok, but the hips don't lie, so yeah.

Christen

You don't always have to go for lethal. You're putting him in range of your burn spells. If he's in range, it will affect his plays significantly.

Christen

Happy Birthday LP!

Christen

So I was supposed to play a GPT earlier and it was sealed deck. Decided to drop and take home the packs when it had Elspeth and Thoughtseize in my pool.

Christen

Currently utilizing Rubblebelt Maaka to get past Caryatids. They have been good in testing so far.

Christen

Isn't his deck a build-around Fanatic? I don't think you can change Zealot or BTE as easily as that. If I'm to go fast aggro, I wouldn't want to have 4 copies of Fanatic as it will only do 3-4 damage most of the time.

Christen

GHC is always a threat, though. The thing here is, it's only 1 GHC, and there would be more games that 1 Hammer would be the better card that you play than the games where GHC takes you the distance. It's also synergistic with the deck: adding two damage to Fanatic and making it able to attack righ...

Christen

So what are your plans for the upcoming hate train?

Christen

Fanatic is a good finisher provided you can determine when the best time to play him.

Decklist. I'm pretty sure I would've put Hammer over that singleton GHC. Did that GHC do work?

Christen

I can't watch the stream on the office. Is finals Mono-Red vs UW?

Christen

I drafted Theros and went 3-0 when somebody passed me a Hammer of Purphoros, 2 Lightning Strikes, and a Magma Jet. So I went all red with a light splash of blue for Griptide and Aqueous Form.

Christen

We'll see how it goes in testing. The choice is whether to have the power of scry-draw or a late game finisher.

Christen

Hero's Downfall; side Dark Betrayal.

I'm not really too fond of the double black cost though. I'm being ambitious on my mana as it is.
