TH - hope everything works out for you. I was decent in high school as well despite only being 170 lbs on the offensive line (lost a lot of weight one year but they decided to keep me on the line). I got an offer from a D3 school on the condition I get to 225 but I eventually decided I didn't want to play D3 and went to Auburn. I love football and hated not playing in college but it all worked out for the best.

I went to Channel Fireball today for their Free Standard event and tore it up 3-0 without dropping a game. Can't complain with five free packs even though I opened mostly junk. Ember Swallower, Shipbreaker Kraken, Bow of Nylea, Psychic Intrusion, and Reaper of the Wilds. I did need that Ember Swallower though. The people there were great. Very friendly and
cordial. Really nice place. I think I'll go again tomorrow.
Bow is probably a 4 dollar card in the future and Reaper reminds me of a weaker Olivia in that it will probably be great in the future so I think your pulls have longterm value.
You gotta understand, I love the beatdown. I really do. I always have.

Beatdown is hard, though.

UR

Postby Ragnarok » Tue Oct 15, 2013 7:58 am

So I've been play testing the UR build a lot against the local meta. Barring a few misplays, it's been performing pretty well. I did add Ratchet bomb to the board which has been doing work against GW. What do you guys think about a UR Master of waves deck? You think it's viable? I like Master and I like Magma Jet. Thoughts?

Well hey, good to know we have another brother in the state! Yeah, St. Louis definitely is on my list of cities I love to visit but that I wouldn't choose to live in...not enough upside to pull me away from the easier traffic and safer overall downtown. I will look into the PTQ sitch...I haven't looked that far ahead in kid schedules yet as I'm just trying to survive marching band season!
Safer downtown is only because there is a national park downtown, there are just as many, if not more, dangerous areas. I carry a knife with me everywhere (*insert crocodile dundee joke aimed at zeman here*), and I am probably going to end up getting a concealed carry permit (nice thing about living in a conservative state is that they are easy to
get, which could also be considered a bad thing (it's a good thing I can get one easy (I'm ex-military, i'm not worried about me), but the fact that everyone can is unnerving)).

I understand the scheduling problems, so glad I live alone. I just got back from my brother's wedding, and with him married I'm the only single one left of either of my grandparents descendants unmarried, and I am feeling the pressure from my relatives to get hitched and settle down (and i'm originally from iowa, and my family is still all there, so I could actually get married there).

At any rate if you do go, I'll be the dirty bonde/brown haired guy in the dissension shirt with the goatee.

thanks to nbw for the sig.
You do need to try to gay it up a little more.

You're like the least gay member of this clan.

And that's counting the fact that you voluntarily have sex with men.

Also, does anyone think UW Heroic could be a deck? It has access to some good cards actually. Battlewise Hoplite, Triton Tactics, Artisan of Forms all do seems to be nice.
While Red has better Heroic-enablers (Dynacharge, Coordinated Assault, Boros Charm) - it sucks at providing good Heroic targets. The one thing you get is actually Anax and Cymede.
On the other hand, White already provides the core of strategy.

4 Soldier of the Pantheon
4 Favored Hoplite
4 Phalanx Leader
4 Precinct Captain
4 Fabled Hero

Also Zeman, thread alarm: http://forums.mtgsalvation.com/showthre ... 347&page=2
You are even mentioned there. The core part of thread is 'RDW is monkey's deck. Any retard can run it"

Think of it this way: anyone who would use a gun in an illegal manner is going to be carrying one whether they have a permit to do so or not so the only people you really have to worry about are the ones with good intentions but that are too dumb to use a weapon responsibly - and, IME, most of them are anti-gun anyway.

Either way, you're probably not going to want to be unarmed.

He was playing GR midrange/ramp, i stalled the game by blocking his monstrous arbor colossus with phoenix and recurring it with Thunder Thighs' +1 every turn, eventually getting out young P money (2 actually) and blocking with his tokens while burning his topdecked voyaging satyrs, and FINALLY getting the mana to overload mortars and this is what happens.
