    Casual Hall of Fame Nominations: Lorwyn

    I hope I'm still in time... just to quote myself: Well. Lignify is still a solid choice I guess. I'm still behind shriekmaw, a solid cheap card for every casual deck that has black in it. But it's just a support card. So why no Liliana Vess?

    I'm a bit bummed that they're pushing vampires in the core set instead of zombies. And now in this set as well... this card would've been really nice as a zombie. Now it's still a great card, but it's not a zombie :(

    "Some pack" are the Planechase decks.

    Ransac once again plays in another one of these tourneys: Pt. Cheesecake

    Goblin outlander seems too tiny to win the matchup all by himself. It's a pity there isn't something like rancor or jitte around (although that would probably help the decks you play against more than it would help you). Maybe you could try Black knight in place of Tattermunge maniac.

    Modus plays in a tourney as well

    20 packs is better than nothing, you could trade it for beer ;)

    Pretty close to the PT, pity! Did you win anything?

    Ransac once again goes to yet another frickin' tourney, Pt. Something

    Nice to see you're finally sold on Ball Lightning. I noticed you're only running black for Goblin outlander and the sideboard. Switching to green (you need the second color for hackblade obviously) shouldn't be too hard if you can trade your lands. You're straying far from your original RB-deck...

    Ransac once again goes to yet another tournament: pt. 5

    Hm, I'm not sure if Ball Lightning is better than Hellspark Elemental. They're just different cards. 6 damage is a lot, and it's a lot tougher to block all that damage than the measily 3 of Hell's thunder. But unearth is pretty good against control. With Burning inquiry you could build around...

    Lurking predators might be the best multiplayer card ever.

    Ransac once again goes to yet another tournament: pt. 5

    You want to start talking about rebuilding your deck after M10? There are some nice cards in there. I sure hope you already got bolts and duress, perhaps even Ball lightnings? I think it's time to trade your Demigods... budget concerns ;) Burning inquiry (plus unearth!) and Sign in blood (also...

    Apparently lightning bolt and duress are coming back in M10 to help you :)

    Ransac once again goes to yet another tournament: pt. 5

    If you have more mana, you can put it in more expensive burn spells. But I think you're right when you say you don't like this many lands. What's appealing about the deck is the low curve and the cheap spells. I don't see how Demigod (despite how cool the card is) fits in. Sure, it dodges...

    That doesn't work in this deck. Yeah, it kills the survivor tokens, but not the hunted tokens. Night of Soul's betrayal works (I've used it before), but it's also 4 mana. I've settled on this list: 4 VWR 4 Hunted phantasm 1 Hunted horror 1 Hunted dragon 1 Hunted troll 4 Plague spitter 2...

    Top 10 not so obvious artifacts of all time

    -You can't have a top artifact list without Jester's Cap and Juggernaut. Juggernaut is one of the first artifacts ever to get banned (from extended), Cap is one of the first cards ever to get ridiculously overhyped. -Arcbound ravager and his friends the artifact lands. -Ensnaring bridge plus...

    Magic 2010 Rules Changes

    If they didn't intend Warp World and the Hunted creatures to work the way they do now they should've made the token creation an optional choice for the opponent. It's a simple workaround to change token ownership to the opponent. They didn't do it like that (while they do know about Brand and...

    Acceleration, you mean. That would help, but to speed up the deck I'd need 3 mana by turn 2. I was thinking along the lines of adding a lot of burn sweepers (earthquake, pyroclasm) or go with Sharpshooter, Plaguespitter and either Spirit loop or Warhammer (or behemoth sled if I can get the...

    Aether flash is solid, but it costs as much as Tainted aether. 4cc cards are so slooow. How do I work around this?

    Well, with M10 rule changes I can't really use Brand anymore. So I'll have to retool the deck... again. And just as I'd gotten so thrilled about Brand, together with Toshi. I could draw a card, kill a creature with an instant and then steal my tokens back. When it worked, it worked really well...

    Well, they killed my Brand deck, so I'm not happy.
