Both of them deserve it...

You could ofcourse ask the players to write down their hands (of fetch yourself two minions) so you can edit them in in text afterwards...


Awesome videos, although the first had so many misplays. The mud-player has so much unused mana...

Or this:



Some sort of enchantment, 1R
Enchantment
Whenever a player is dealt three or more damage in a single turn, that player sacrifices a permanent.



Would make Chain Lightning unplayable though

Because I was sick the week before, I didn't have time to get a vintage deck together, which is a shame...


I saw so many play errors in the vintage side event, not only the people at 2-3 or something, but a combo-player that was at 6-0 and made three mistakes during his Yawgmoth's Will (and didn't get punished for it, as he won)
5  Vintage Community Discussion / Non-Vintage / Re: GP Madrid on: February 09, 2010, 05:27:34 pm
I'll be there with about 40 dutchies...






but than again, I have kind of forsaken vintage

2) Play with 70-card-decks
If every deck needs to contain at least 70 cards instead of 60, you have again a lot of deckslots that need to be filled.

The more cards you use, the more likely you are to get land screwed. 

That's strategy too... Wink

My suggestions (both aren't really what the thread maker asked for, but he did ask for a more interesting Vintage format):

1) Restrict the number of restricted cards you can use
Any Deck (+sideboard) can have a total number of 10 Restricted Cards in it. When I first started to play vintage, we made jokes about the decks almost being Highlander, with all the restricted cards running around. If any deck can use only 10 restricted cards of choice, you hurt almost every deck (true, combo a little more, but Banned and Restricted cards hurt combo anyways). Most decks end up with 5-10 empty slots which have to be filled and the decks become more interesting. More interesting decks, more interesting metagame.

2) Play with 70-card-decks
If every deck needs to contain at least 70 cards instead of 60, you have again a lot of deckslots that need to be filled.

You can try to PM me when I feel like coming back into competitive magic...

It WOULD bring power towards your team Razz


**I'm in total limbo, Nijmegen is like the T2 and TFail Capital of the world...

Hell, half a year ago I had to introduce extended Neutral

There are quite a couple of people that want to play T1 in regio Twente... You should be able to find them on nedermagic.nl...


however, if you want to go for the greater players:

Utrecht: Menno Rieff
Nijmegen: Roy Thijssen en Tom van de(r) Logt
Eindhoven: Lots of them, including Rudy van der Soest, Hero 't Mannetje, Marco Kievit en Bram Verhees
Leiden: a couple, don't know the names
Den Haag: Arthur Tindemans & Koen van der Hulst


and obviously all these things have changed the past two years...

Yep, and me too and Smennen

13  Eternal Formats / Creative / [Single Card] In the Eye of Chaos on: March 05, 2005, 04:29:28 pm
Everybody keeps naming the Mirrodin talismans...


However, I can see this card in one of those odyssey-egg-decks...

but in that case it would become another Xantid Swarm...
14  Vintage Community Discussion / General Community Discussion / How many cards will get Restricted on: February 23, 2005, 02:18:17 pm
I think they're too lazy to restrict something...

If they would, they'd restrict a lot at once...

They should've just reprinted Powder Keg...

It's on the reserved list. They got a lot of flak for even printing the promo foil keg.


Yes, there's one little rule which prevents WotC to fix their own mistakes...

I really don't see the problem, the whole idea of a reserved list is bad, they should've named it "The list of cards we will probably not reprint" and than just reprint powder keg in 5th dawn...

But than again, they could've just reprinted Powder Keg under another name, right?

I saw on the News yesterday that in the Phillipines an entire street was blown up, because somebody wanted to test a fire-work-thingy, while still in the store...

Only if she's hot.  There aren't enough legendary babes.  Radiant is the best one I can think of.

Oh, I like the symbol.  It's nifty.

I found it somewhere here on TMD in a random forum...

And I responded to it with something like "Lol, our restricted list is bigger"

but that was just after Braingeyser and stuff got unrestricted, so they beat us...

by a little...

During the beginning of this year, Dragon was big...

Everything that wasn't running black ran Tormod's Crypts...

So the stats are probably a little higher because of that... Wink

---

Are there actually more than 180 legal standard-cards??

I do know that the Top16 of States or something only contained like 60 different cards (just a little more than the Restricted List + 5 Basic Lands)
