Re: Magic: The Gathering

Cloudshift DOES apparently work with Auerelia though, which is hilarious.

Probably overkill too though, I mean she's a pretty strong finisher on her own - particularly if they reprint Rally the Righteous (I swear if they don't reprint Lightning Helix...)

I can't stop laughing at the deck I just played against. I copied it and gave the guy huge props for it.

I'll show you all later, XD

Was it Jund Cycling?

Re: Magic: The Gathering

Nope. But it was marvelously brilliant in it's simplicity.

Now I'm curious.

Log on and play me. I'll show you.

@Demon: If you got your start that early it'd definitely be worth your time to sort your collection and price it all. There's some really valuable cards from that era, and if you have them it might be a good idea to get them in sleeves/a binder rather than stuffed in a shoebox. Just some food for thought.

I will pull it out and take a look through all of them. How much are they worth these days?

It really depends on the individual card, but I think some of the dual lands are up to $100 and moxes and black lotus still run into the $1,000+ price range. Like I said, it'd be worth your time to just look through your collection and price everything out since there's a good chance you're sitting on a small fortune without even realizing it.

Ask Yyg about his $15 mountains.

The amount of things Cloudshift works on is retarded, and I feel like slapping YM every time he pulls out that card because shenannigans are going to happen. The amount of things you can do with that card are literally only limited by your imagination and how willing you are to have everyone hate your guts for using it.

(Yes this is coming from a Blue Mage, the card is THAT crazy if you know what you are doing)

Re: Magic: The Gathering

Would you guys be interested in doing a constructed tourney? Here's what I'm thinking: Each person puts together a deck list in the chosen format (I'm thinking we start with Standard) and PMs them to me along with the deck's hash (e.g. brufddck). I will post my deck list first to demonstrate that I am not metagaming. We play each other Swiss, each person dueling each other person two out of three with their tourney decks whenever is convenient for them, and post the match results. Best record wins bragging rights.

Re: Magic: The Gathering

Sounds like fun, I'm all for it.

I don't have MTGO or I might.

Re: Magic: The Gathering

I second the fun, thus doubling it.

Also, Angels in general are brokendumb. Though, if you somehow have the mana left to Cloudshift Aurelia, you clearly haven't won fast enough as a Boros player.

(. . . unless, of course, you're intentionally playing the long game just so you can Timmy out the even dumber Gisela, Blade of Goldnight . . .)

We're using Cockatrice. It is free.

Maybe you powered her out with an Avacyn's Pilgrim, who she just untapped. :D

Turn 5. Aurelia. Attack three times. Or hell, turn 4 if you snuck a keyrune in there. Of course the earlier you pull it off, the fewer creatures are going to attack 3 times. Though if you're lucky enough to play say a Thundermaw Hellkite on turn 3 ... Man, that'd be sick.

Re: Magic: The Gathering

Turn 3 is pushing it for the Hellkite. Nevertheless, I like the way you think!
