Magic: The Gathering v2 - Games

Zombii just left me and I'm feeling vulnerable. It'd be a shame if someone came onto cockatrice and played with me ;)

[QUOTE=RearAdmiral;41977240][t]http://i43.tinypic.com/2qdzxb9.png[/t] tee hee[/QUOTE] don't make me do that ever again.

I forgot how to play magic after that round.

Rear's Jhoira deck is annoying. If he uses it against you, run.

The only win condition that deck has is when everyone concedes because they can't do shit

m14 may be pretty underwhelming as a whole, but shadowborn apostle allowing this deck to be made owns bones [img]http://i.imgur.com/EeNulr2.png[/img]

I prefer [URL="http://mythicspoiler.com/"]Mythic Spoiler[/URL]

The new set is going to be extremely interesting. Might be good or bad, only time will tell. The events seem like they'll be really fresh. Not like the half assed thing they did for the RTR block.

Anyone up for a multiplayer match of EDH on cockatrice?

The Grand Prix last weekend was pretty fun, I ended up pulling a foil chandra, so I'm reasonably happy :)

My local store is -almost- large enough to run Grand Prix's, which for us is huge considering we are such a remote location that only started a few months ago.

Cockatrice server keeps crashing and shit, and the maker got sued.

awww shit, thoughtseiiiiiiiiize

The art for Fiendslayer Paladin is SO COOL I played him last night and everyone started squealing like schoolgirls about how hardcore he looked.

[QUOTE=Jack_Thompson;42040565]awww shit, thoughtseiiiiiiiiize[/QUOTE] That and scry 2 draw 2 lose 2. I'm still going to be running black, I'm never going to escape.

What do you guys think are the top 3 commanders? Mine are 1. Mayael the Anima Crazy. Boost it with green mana ramping, and you can pump out eldrazis by turn 4. 2. Kaalia of the Vast Again, kind of a variation of Mayael. Protect Kaalia with indestructible/shroud or whatever, and you can pop Avacyn on turn 4. Played with Rexen and beat him with this. 3. Niv-Mizzet Not so cool, but is a personal favorite. Both cards (Dracogenuis and Firemind) combo well together with a lot of izzet cards. You can build up the commander damage real quick with Firemind.

Grimgrin, Corpse Born - Pudge. What more can be said?

Angus Mackenzie because I don't like being attacked [editline]1st September 2013[/editline] Also because he lets me politic like hell during multiplayer games

Grand Arbiter Augustin IV 4.) Jenara, Asura of War Do I love these decks? No. I hate them actually. My favorite commanders are Zedruu The Greathearted, Doran, the Siege Tower and I can't wait to slip Jelava, Nephalia Scourge into my grixis deck. Also, I think Daxos of Meletis is going to prove to be a super powerful commander in a voltron deck.

He's not a good commander at all really, board wipes are super prevalent in EDH, and his angel doesnt count towards commander damage, so he's basically a 2/2 hexproof for 3 in a format full of board wipes. Azami is much more powerful, the combo can go off anywhere from turn 4 to the end of the game and monoblue lets it be highly protected with bounce and counterspells.

He's an insane voltron commander in the right colors; u/w. And the Angel doesn't need to deal commander damage, it just needs to hit. Four damage every turn from the token puts other players on their heels and screws with game plans. At 3 mana, he's a hell of a commander.

Also, 6 damage per turn is not a big deal in EDH, that's 6 turns(after he's played) to find one of numerous answers, not to mention just, y'know, playing a blocker? I'm not denying that Geist isn't a powerful card, but EDH is a powerful format.

Organized EDH tournaments aren't extremely common but the number of Geist decks in the top 4 of so many events should be a testament to his power.

[QUOTE=mastfire;42050949]can't block progenitus [IMG]http://magiccards.info/scans/en/fvl/9.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE] Or Unblockable creatures. Though these things should be common knowledge.
