Video Game Boy: I tested Ghost Quarter a few times and while Wasteland takes out tapped lands without a problem, Ghost Quarter actually puts in an untapped land under your opponent's control giving them the ability to play additional effects when otherwise tapped out. I otherwise agree with most of your pros and cons, and still I concluded that Wastes were the superior choice.
BruiZar: I would love to see your parfait list, I am still building off my old lists and I have not yet tested Grunt, but it seems like it would be a fantastic addition. I liked the recycling ability of Mistveil Plains, but Grunt does the job far better, swings for 4, and also hits goyf. Do you have a moat in the side? If so, what is your win condition? I am still looking for a flying win condition for when I slam down a moat and Serra Avenger came to mind. Opinions? Is she completely inferior to Exalted?
Finally has anyone tried Dust to Dust? Steve is right in that I always find myself short on artifact control, as a sorcery its no Rack Ruin but it allows me to keep it monoW.

I've been playing around with this and it is really fun to play. Does anyone else have a problem with the win condition? 8x 2/* creatures seems just too slow for me. Not that I don't love their abilities, but with them, I can't beat jank. Combo is simpler, but jank comes and just wins. Has anyone tested the angel?

Is Nether Void not played anymore? Is that a stupid question? I havent played Magic since they changed the look of the cards...

I think an updated B/g void Primer would be worth while. Things have changed a quite a bit from when OS last wrote his. Perhaps trimming this to just a "New matchups" and a "new card choices" article could be considered though. *shrug*

I'm in Camden and I've looked all around Philly as well. No Magic. Clearly Philly is no NY. Glad I can be back in north Jersey for the summer... mmmmm.

Hey my name is Arthur King. My parents decided they liked the novel so much that they would name their kid after the legendary king of Camelot. It’s cool I dig it. I‘m 18 and I live in Scotch Plains, NJ. I started playing magic in the 3rd grade and then got into it around Ice Age. Quit for a little while when “Summon So and So” became “Creature – So and So,” still heartbreaking. I came back right after the Urza Cycle after my cousins came in with some BROKEN cards and beat the crap out of my MBC deck. I was a very competitive swimmer for most of the years of my life. I am more comfortable in a pool than on a field, more comfortable swimming than walking. I quit swimming after my senior year of HS, and now I just swim roughly an hour a day as opposed to 5. I’m an ex druggie, with the exception of a few things involving needles, you name it, I’ve done it. I attend Rutgers-Camden. Majoring in Kung Fu… no that’s not a major, but if it was, that’s what I would be majoring in considering I do Kung Fu roughly 15 hours a week not counting my personal training.

I think he may mean to include stifles in addition to sinkholes. The problem is that the deck is really kinda tight. Personally I dont think there is room for them.

You should call it "Angry Dragon" (For those of you who don’t know, the "Angry Dragon" is a sexual manuver. It's when a girl is giving you head and as you're giving her the juice, you hit her in the head and shove your dick down her throat. If done properly, everything should come out her nose, giving the image of an angry dragon breathing out of its nose...)

Sinkhole gives you a better shot against workshop.dec. I see where you're coming from, but workshop is a bad matchup and for that reason alone, I dont think I could spare it. Dragon's Bazaars are a pain. Plus I hear basic lands are tough for wastelands/dustbowl to snag. I think the ld aspect is too important to get cut just yet. A Sinkhole will - at best - kill a land. Yay. Your opponent will just lay another land and lose some tempo. Good for a start, but not enough.
A sinkhole can hit their 4th land under void and keep them waiting for another land, possibly winning you the game.
