Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion

Very excited for Grolnok, the Omnivore. Going to run him with big brudder Gitrog in the pile of nonsense that is Archelos lands.

Creature Suggestions for a Fight Club-Treasure Deck

I've decided, like a handful of others here, to pare my collection down to just a handful of decks. One of which is a Fight/Treasure themed deck helmed by Korvold. In my mind, I see Korvold as Don King - the fight promoter who gets rich (treasures) off of his stable of fighters. As I was putting the...

Re: Athreos, God of Passage deck help

At first look, I'd say Ayara and Elderfang Disciple could go. I used to play Athreos and Heartless Summoning is really good, though a bit of a non-bo with critters with toughness of 1.

Re: Wow, what is happening to card prices!?

Echoing what others have said (in other threads), with prices so wild (and people chomping at the bit to pay them) now seems like a great time to make a graceful exit from the game. A friend sold everything with the exception of a handful of decks and I'm following his example. I was a little worrie...

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Grismold, the Dreadsower

One of my favorite, longest running decks. Always fun to take the troll for a spin. Even when people see him coming, they still can underestimate how quickly he gets HUUUUUGE. Plus I get to run stuff like Dark Privilege! I really need to get around to posting my list on here.

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Vega, the Watcher

Isn't that M. Bison? His original name in Japan (game and manga) is Vega. The character known as Balrog in the US was M. Bison (reference to Mike Tyson). Capcom was forced to change that when exporting to the US - so Bison became Balrog, Balrog became Vega, and Vega became Bison (and they just neve...

Old Stickfingers - InsertInappropriateFingerJokeHere.dec

Was super excited to see Old Stickfingers . Made me think of the Beast of the Lantern from Over the Garden Wall and it's in my favorite color combo, so I've been tinkering with a list. I play in a pretty competitive meta, so the list definitely reflects that. Plan A: Control the board with wipes and...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion

*looks at Tatyova* Eloise, Nephalia Sleuth is a card that deserves a mana value of 5. Losing the non-token clause from your card draw death triggers is *huge*. Maybe if they were treasure tokens, sure. But you're paying 2 per clue to get some use out of them in UB, which is not super famous for cop...

I'm excited to brew up some nonsense with Stick Stickly. Trying to decide between a pile of value critters or a bunch of A+B combo for some sort of slot machine pile.

I hope all our NZ friends are doing alright. The world is small enough without anyone I know getting stabbed. Meanwhile in my home state, the school shootings are already firing up again, no pun intended. It's one of the more pronounced downsides of this glorious country. At the very least, it make...

Well we could do a EDH deck in WGB for it :)
I'm just waiting on more spoilers, after the whole Duck Fat debacle from last year's Brunch Battle set, I'm a little gunshy about new builds.

Probably worse than a lot, but I can think of a few things: All my creatures worked on Roseanne season 4 Simple anthem Blanket +1/+1 for each green spell you cast before combat But probably the best is Illusions of Grandeur Oh man.

@pokken That is better than my company. We had 2 years so far of no merit increases due to Covid and while they have promised them to be reinstated this year, we too have always gotten 2-3% which isn't enough.

Secondly, this forms a Wild Pair with Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite . No it doesn't. Anyway, I saw a Grismold, the Dreadsower deck no-one took seriously kill two people with this once. Never underestimate Grismold. People think he's cute until you drop Illness in the Ranks or, as you mentioned, Massac...
