Yawgmoth’s Whimsy # 38: Breaking Balthor*

Out of five boxes of Judgment, he got only one Sylvan Safekeeper and two Cunning Wishes… But he got eight Balthor, the Defiled. Since he now has enough for both himself and his wife to play Balthor decks, I guess Peter will have to break Balthor wide open.

The Daily Shot: Bethmo Had Better Deal, Dammit

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.

The Semidaily Blister: An Intellectual Exercise

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?
