In your articles, the most piles you make do include mind's desire. Even the situation with desire in hand (in your rehearsing the doomsday scenario article) featured playing mind's desire. But how do you pile with a meddling mage naming desire out?
With oil prices so high you could consider heating your house with them. Like the russians did when there money wasn't worth the paper it was printed on.
I thought that was the germans, circa 1930. I remember a photo of someone carting a wheelbarrow of cash around.
True. And if i recall correctly, with an inflation rate of in the millions, that wheelbarrow wouldn't buy him a bread (well, maybe the wheelbarrow would, but not its contents).
When using mana drain I would without a doubt choose TFK over impulse. But when playing the more agressive oath, I would choose impulse because a) it's cheaper and b) it digs one card deeper.
In a random meta (i.e. jank decks) I would go with oath. It eats aggro decks alive . In a more competitive (but random meta) Fish would be a good unpowered choice.
And the problem with that is...? That's why you have to save those brainstorms .
When you add another creature, you are adding a potentially dead card (because 2 hasty 6/something fliyiers are enough), and you have to cut something that could search and protect your 'combo' or disrupt your opponent. Those are all much harder needed than an extra creature for the odd just-in-case.
IF you want access te more creatures, run research//development.
You'd have a much harder time finding someone to sell them to than you would with real power. If I were you i'd make some fancy proxies and be done with it (since you're not going to attend tourneys). CE power isn't much more than that anyway.
