I must admit that my preference for Rakalite is somewhat skewed by experience: I think Rakalite was the first card that made me realize that some cards are too bad to put in a deck. I think I might've had Coral helm in a deck. I figured creature pump isn't that bad. Sylex might be bad, but...

Well, this planeswalker might not be a staple... unless RW is the color combination of "the deck to beat" in Alara. It's not easy to predict what planeswalkers are bombs. If only one of this cycle is in a tier 1 deck, that card would be really pricey. If you need the "new Garruk", everyone...

Wait... the others get paid to vote on this poll? At least I voted for Rakalite, I should get a bonus :D

Enemy color planeswalkers... We already saw an allied color planeswalker. So we could conclude all color pairs get a planewalker? Hmpf. This one is an armageddon on a stick. Activating it seems hard though.

Go go rakalite!

From a dutch webshop. 27 euro's. In dollars that would be about $40, but I think wizards is still running a one on one exchange rate. In fact, in 2003 or so, when the Euro was at $0.85, they increased the price of boosters because of increase costs. Weird, considering that the cards are actually...

I just preordered it. Sales seem to be going fast, so I consider myself lucky. Anyway, since the value of each card in the nonfoil version is at least 5 bucks, the value of this set should be pretty good. If only for the Thunder dragon it's worth it. I'm going to use this as a starting point for...

It's a pity, because the Invitational was the only real magic show I found interesting. Surprising formats, weird matchups, fan favorites, nice stories. Worlds is boring compared to the Invitational.

I second Rakalite. I think I got about 10 of them out of chronicles boosters, and I hate the card. Back then I didn't know it was a rare, but if I did, I would have hated it more. I dislike damage prevention unless it's a static ability, but you have to pay mana for this. And not a little bit...

Here, bottom of the page :)

TBH, that's about all I know about forum software ;) In other news, the poking mission has been completed.

HTML is an antic programming language that's hardly used for web pages anymore. This website is made with vB, special commercial forum software. There are addons for vB, like for the RSS-reader that is needed (I guess). But, like you say, that's probably something Ed has to implement. Who's the...

I'm not sure what you mean. At first I thought you were confused with Aladdin's ring, but apparently you're not. You're saying that it's good if you have oozes of mana. I say you'd be better off drawing a fireball in that case. Why is it good to have a high CC? All I can imagine is Xenic...

Something like this, an old invitational decklist: 4 Anurid Brushhopper 4 Birds of Paradise 4 Canopy Crawler 4 Feral Throwback 1 Gurzigost 3 Hystrodon 4 Krosan Tusker 4 Llanowar Elves 4 Phantom Nishoba 4 Ravenous Baloth 3 Earthquake 3 Contested Cliffs 7 Forest 2 Mountain 1 Plains 4 Windswept...

Maybe I misinterpretedtetetetedetedetredetd the intent behind your question. What's the goal of your tribe, winning or maximizing style points? You'll get kudo's for building a goat deck I guess... A shame they nerfed the war-rider tribe.

Beasts is good, but first and foremost because of Contested cliffs. There's a recurring beast token maker in Eventide as well, should be OK in multiplayer. Faeries should be good, it's dominating standard nowadays. Same goes to elementals. Snakes is sick, that tribe should be banned as well. I...

Power surge, the card that should've been reprinted in Prophecy... Anyway, Land tax and Seismic assault, that's one of the first decks with real synergy (other than islands+counterspell) I ever played against. Really strong. Instead of land tax you could play Life from the loam as well. And...

Powerstone minefield and Caltrops are great, but not good enough: you don't want your opponent to have a choice in what to do with the tokens. If they don't attack or block, they don't get repercussion damage. My deck runs Leyline of the void and Tainted Aether. Tainted Aether, that's what you...

Maybe it'll be an incentive to write... I see no downside (because I don't have to do the work, ha!), I think the articles show what's going on here. I doubt there's anything else that could draw more attention to CPA. Well, a party with free booze and topless chicks, but I doubt that's going...

There seems to be an article every week. That is a pretty impressive stream of articles for a site that doesn't pay it's writers. At least I think it's worthwhile, if only because it gives those articles some deserved attention. I found that if you want to be added to the Radar, you need to...
