Ever wonder why every change by anybody in the Magic community produces a torrent of bitching? Jay, returning to his old digs for a while from his stint at Magicthegathering.com, tries to break down the four styles of players in a way that’s not just”Casual/Pro” or”Spike/Johnny/Timmy.”
LaRue’s back with another art attack – and this time, he’s asking what the two best pieces in Judgment are! One may be Constructed-worthy… The other probably isn’t. Read on!
Crazy decking stories include crazy decks – and a crazy $5 in StarCity credit for sharing your kookiest multiplayer story!
If correctly built, a black control deck will smash a Zevatog deck and unfairly molest a KaiAtog deck; Trenches stands little chance, and it will beat on a blue/green deck such as Deep Dog and the likes as if it were demanding lunch money. Say, isn’t that the metagame?
I guess what I’m trying to say is, well, if calling my opponent an”assmaster” in response to his Morphling is wrong in the presence of the fairer sex – then by God, I don’t wanna be right.
How much would your play improve if you could have Mike Turian sitting over your shoulder during a draft game, explaining what he would have done, which cards he considers suboptimal, and what the right play should have been? Well, one lucky winner will get to have that chance….
Here’s the story of Grinder 2,
Of mana-flood and color screw,
Of black and green and red and blue,
So did I win? I think I’m due.
I started to hate ‘Tog and started to search for a more enjoyable deck – and I found Mike Long’s version of Deep Dog with white. I immediately built it and it was fun indeed.
“I’ve played a similar number of matches in each format. I’m showing improvement in one, but not in the other. Why?”
“Don’t look at me, dude.”
“I didn’t know either. So I started thinking about the games, looking for differences between my Limited and Constructed matches…”
Kibler got it right when he mentioned that there are only three”playable” Wishes – Living, Cunning, and Burning. What are the approaches to using them in OBC?
Let me tell you right now, friends (and I’m speaking, one somehow assumes, in the dynamic polytone voice of a backwoods Wonder Tonic huckster): This fellow Randy Buehler is a decent human being. But who is this so-called”Mister Buehler”?
OBC is all about the green men and Buehler may yet be vindicated. Want to know how the OBC metagame is shaping up, what will be the most popular deck – and why? The truth is in here.
Hey. You. Wanna win some stuff? Know something about Magic storylines? Well, why not try your hand at Daniel’s latest trivia quiz?
In OBC alone, there are at least four solid U/G decks I can count:”Mongrel Madness,” U/G Upheaval, Quiet Roar, and lately I’ve seen a bounce-heavy variant running Wonder, Elephant Guide, and Cephalid Constable. All share similarities, but have enough differences to be considered unique.
