Re: Marisi Outside of Goad
I've been working on a Marisi, Breaker of the Coil Tribal Cats build with equipment subtheme. I have found it to be fun and interesting. Nacatl War-Pride is an interesting finisher on the back of Goad since (ideally) most of their creatures would be tapped from attacking and Breath of Fury does wond...

Re: Shuffling a hundred cards
Riffle shuffle seven times . The Gilbert–Shannon–Reeds model provides a mathematical model of the random outcomes of riffling, that has been shown experimentally to be a good fit to human shuffling and that forms the basis for a recommendation that card decks be riffled seven times in order to rando...

Re: March 2020 AMA
I'm sorry. I was not trying to set any burden of proof (much less an impossible one).
I am genuinely curious of there is *any* data other than EDHRec implying a lack of casual use(s) of/for Flash.

Re: Talkin about rule 0
I mostly play online, where WotC has made rule 0 obsolete in MTGO (chat used to open when the table was made, before the game was launched, now the game chat doesn't open until after the game has launched - too late to discuss anything or possibly switch decks) ******* In paper, in addition to simpl...

Re: Does anyone play Arena? MTGO?
For those playing on MTGO. Do you make any card or deck decision because you are playing on MTGO?

Just because keeping mana up and responding is such a p...

Re: March 2020 AMA
On a separate note, I implore the RC not to ban Flash . I'm really curious why you don't want Flash banned. Regarding Flash, cEDH players often cite the card's relative unpopularity as justification for its ban. We already know that a card's ubiquity can put it on the RC's radar for a potential ban...
