The Reverend sees the light and takes up the torch! Yes, Rizzo and Wakefield were the best writers ever… And Wachter must follow, showing off his dogs, his music, and beating the crap out of Zev Gurwitz! Possibly the funniest Magic article ever, though it’s not for the easily offended.
I think I can be the next Rizzo, or at least a reasonable facsimile… And so I’m going to go over the Judgement cards for Constructed, a color a day, while including foul jokes and unrepentant humor.
The Knutmaster analyzes Regionals to see what the major trends were, asks Flores and other historians for some help, discusses Judgement’s brokenness, and lists movies. Business As Usual, except now he has snarky editorial inserts!
Four games against Stompy are highlighted, and Oscar stomps the heck out of ’em with Pure Control. Hey, one game is even close!
All right! Jim qualified for Nationals… But with what deck and what record?
I had a store owner who wanted to beef up his Magic business. I myself wanted more local Magic. How did I put the peanut butter into his chocolate?
I cannot see how you would want to publish, let alone feature on your front page, any”writer” who is such a kiss-ass, and so blatantly ignorant, as to say that three of the five best articles on Magic are Rizzo articles.
Anthony tries to break the synergy between Seize The Day and Radiate… And seizes an extra week himself with an announcement on new column pacing.
Today’s theme is people who really didn’t think that Rizzo was all that good. (Yesterday’s theme was”Writers From Afar,” but I’ll explain why I didn’t mention that in a minute.) But today marks an even more important day in StarCity history: We’re done with Rizzo.
Straight outta 7Towers.net, the man some consider to be the Heir To Rizzo’s Throne tells you exactly who DOES deserve the Rizzo Box… And, of course, why.
You forced me to think, and for that I am grateful. I didn’t want to do it, but you made me love you. Now you leave me in the cold and don’t even tell me why you’ve gone.
I can tell you that Rizzo won’t be playing Magic again anytime soon. His enjoyment came from the writing more than the playing – and as long as he finds something to write about, he won’t need Magic.
Rizzo once mentioned in one of his articles a class of player who always dominates the local scene but can’t quite cut it on the actual Pro circuit – that’s me. But I’m not ashamed to give my preliminary opinion on Judgement’s white cards in draft.
I lost to Planar Portal.
There; I said it. I’ll even say it again:
I lost to Planar Portal.
Why Toby’s article was published thanks to a communication breakdown between The Reverend and the Ferrett… But why Toby stands behind what a lot of what he wrote nonetheless.
