Nevermind. You were talking about Ib Halfheart...Oh. Nevermind. You were talking about Ib Halfheart. I've never seen this used, but it seems ok. Play Boomb/Bust (Bust) or cycle Decree of Annihilation and sac all mountains in response to get 6+ goblin tokens to play with Ib? Is that good? I must be missing something. I guess if you've been curving out guys turns 1-6 and no one else has anything big in play it is better... it seems better. I think I'm missing something.Mikey Riveyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16645306703214894577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-956154275711415107.post-60419755723940709512011-08-03T13:49:02.598-04:002011-08-03T13:49:02.598-04:00Who is Zir/Zer/Zur/Xir?

While they already know what combos it is a part of, they don't actually know whether it's degenerate or bad for the game yet. Other cards that are banned for combo implementations have been seen in action and claimed bad. Worldgorger Dragon's implications have only really been seen once in EDH, not on a widespread level.<br /><br />I think there isn't enough information to say Worldgorger Dragon's unbanning will or won't have a major effect, because the EDH community has almost never been able to play with the card.Travishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10081356045445301109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-956154275711415107.post-25856380410361925022011-06-25T21:49:58.415-04:002011-06-25T21:49:58.415-04:00Great show this week guys.
First and foremost, as...Great show this week guys.<br /><br />First and foremost, as a Vorthos, I have the compulsive need to correct you on your gender usage with the legends.<br />Zedruu is a she.<br />Karador is a he.<br />Tariel is a she.<br />The Mimeoplasm is a The Mimeoplasm.<br /><br />The vows strike me as a very interesting cycle.<br />I'd say the white one is the worst, hand down. Not because it's bad, cuz it's not. But rather because white is already inundated with similar affects.<br />The others are all great.<br />The green, blue, and black all grant serious evasion, which is great for playing on Voltron generals (yours or your opponents).<br />I think the whole cycle is great particularly because they are able to largely eliminate a creature without killing it, which can be crucial against creatures that don't care about, or even encouraging dying, the Kamigawa dragons for instance.<br />The red, blue, and green in particular also stand out since the grant a semi permanent removal to the colors with the most fickle removal.<br />Red is somewhat lacking at killing big creatures without A) spending a boatload of mana to do it via an blaze variant or B) without killing every other creature via Inferno or the like. Not knocking against Inferno, natch, but sometimes you want to maintain board presence.<br />The green and blue are the best since blue is terrible at permanently dealing with stuff that's stuck on the board, and green is... well, green.<br /><br /><br />I'm glad that someone mentioned Painter's Servant, because I love using it.<br />I made a mono-black Anowon vampire tribal list, and included Servant because of the positive interactions it offered me with Repentant Vampire and Vampire Nocturnus. In my experience, people are okay with you using banned cards if you clear it with them first, even more so if you emphasize like I do the extremely not-bullshit-combo useage I have for them.<br />Usually I get to "This is my vampire tribal deck and..." before they let me use it.<br /><br />Going into this product, I was looking forward to Ghave because it seemed like my kind of shit.<br />I love screwing with counters and proliferation always makes me randy, so he seemed made specifically for me.<br />But the more I think about it, the more I love The Mimeoplasm.<br />The flavor, the function, the tyrannosaurus arm.<br />The Mimeplasm has everything I could ever want from a Magic card.<br />Every time I think about The Mimeoplasm, I think of something cool I want to do with it.<br />Like this.<br />Right now.<br />Off the top of my head.<br />Thought Gorger.<br />BAM!<br />Go ahead and kill my The Mimeoplasm, I'll just be drawing 20 cards thank you very much.Wilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04249219373341330543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-956154275711415107.post-68170936206429583842011-06-23T21:06:17.377-04:002011-06-23T21:06:17.377-04:00I listened to this podcast as I picked up my Devou...I listened to this podcast as I picked up my Devour for Power deck. Bring on the Mimeoplasm!<br />It's nice to see the fairer sex on this podcast, hopefully we can get some more females involved on occasion.<br />Great episode.Joeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10551312207259355437noreply@blogger.com
