General Deckbuilding

[Oversoul]

Mooseman may build decks ten minutes before he leaves to go play magic but he's no deck building slacker. He's quite good!

His formula starts something like this: "Honey!? Where are my Islands?"

Ha. Whereas I start with Tendrils of Agony.

You can't flood a Forest. It can only target non-flying creatures.

@oversoul-do you have a Long.dec?
If yes, do you have full power?
If yes to above two, what are you doing on the casual site?

I refuse to call the deck you're referring to "Long.dec" because even Mike Long didn't call it that and the version he pioneered is laughably inferior to the one people actually used. He called it "Burning Desire" because he would Burning Wish for Mind's Desire. Other people quickly realized that Yawgmoth's Will was a much better target for Burning Wish and that Mind's Desire belonged in the maindeck, but he pretty much scoffed at them. I still don't understand why "Long.dec" caught on. It's a stupid name.

In any case, I have no Burning Wishes and I don't have any P9 cards.

Good to hear that. Thank you for reassuring me.
