Eternal Formats / Creative / List of playable type-1 cards - great for deckbuilders
|

I have a similar list of actual cards in boxes.
Whenever I purchase new cards, packs, or after a draft, or what not, I take all cards that could theoretically be played in a constructed format, (including 5color, block, standard, extended, vintage etc) and put up to 4 of any card into a sleeve. Henceforth, I have playsets of most constructed star cards. They are sorted by color, and by color into alphabetical order. It makes deckbuilding so fast. I don't have to scrable to find the cards. Whenever I am done with a deck, I desleeve it and put the cards back.
This is offtopic I know, but serious constructed players will take heed of this list and perhaps into their playboxes.

Eternal Formats / Miscellaneous / Control Slaver

I found that landstill isn't extremely weak vs. control slaver, but I default to those whom have played the matchup more than I. Landstill's best matchup is the control mirror. However, in this matchup, Control Slaver has to be the beatdown/aggressor. Be aggresive with Thirst and Welders.

Eternal Formats / Miscellaneous / [Deck] tweaking EBA
|
on: May 04, 2004, 12:19:07 pm
|
Skeletal Scrying is just the BOMB in EBA. I'm up to 3 and i'm never looking back, EVAR. I think the only controversial issue left is whether or not Wastelands belong in the deck at all, along with the off color Moxen. I also LOVE 3 Skeletal Scrying. I do play Wastelands, but not with off-colored moxen. The Wastelands are just so good against so many decks. </obvious>

Eternal Formats / Creative / [DECK] Trying to make random Sneak Attack deck viable
|
on: April 30, 2004, 01:25:28 am
|
The biggest problem with the deck is the dependancy of Sneak Atack and without it, you're basically screwed. So basically, you're saying that you scoop to: Force of Will Mana Drain Mana Leak Counterspell Annul etc. And as far as Dr. Sylvan's reports tell us, Force of Will is a largely played card. And the only way you have to counteract this, is 4 REB in the board. You may want to rethink this.

Eternal Formats / Creative / [deck] FCG: YourD's build
|

Second, I don't have any more than 2 Piledrivers. No big deal, they're powerful, but 2 works just fine. No. You have to draw them often, because they are so good. It is worth 15 dollars to have the playset.

No list?
Sounds like the manabase is terrible, and that your deck is trying to do too many different things, and therefore will be inconsistent.
Red Elemental Blast is the only good sideboard card in Landstill...

The optimal Growing Tog list has Duress in the board to make the combo matchup better. Barring amazing topdecks, Duress with Force backup is a very strong hand against combo and should win you the game.
Isochron Scepter is not a Growing Tog card. The only decks I can ever see the card in, is in Keeper and Tog builds. And tell me who doesn't play with artifact removal in the board, let alone maindeck.

Eternal Formats / Miscellaneous / Hulk Smash with a different spin...

At the beginning of the list, with no Duress, I figured that it would be more geared toward comboing out with a Tog. Then I saw deuce Fire/Ice and Deed. It seems like you're torn between going combo and going control, which may not be good. I do love Fire/Ice as a one-of in Tog, however. It is randomly good.
Library has to be included over the second Wasteland. Unanswered, Library of Alexandria wins the game.

Eternal Formats / Creative / Help with GAT

Stifle is really only a card that you want to have one of in your sideboard with Growing Tog, as a wish target.
The deck does not want nor need to play control when it can just Grow or Tog, and Stifle is really just a control card most of the time. Sometimes, it is the play-to-not-lose card, so it warrants one spot in the board.

Having a playset of Mana Drains is essential to play Psychatog. You just have to have the extra mana to set up the Intuition/AK goodness.
Besides, 4 cards > 1 card

Blinkmoth infusion is SO stupid. If by stupid, you mean BROKEN!!1one!! <KowalLazy> they need to raise the cost to like 27UU before it's not broken The card obviously sucks, but every set has to have its share of crap rares.

If you're going to have a mono-U deck, you should probably have Back to Basics in the sideboard. If by sideboard, you mean maindeck.

Sleeves are for pansies. I play sleeveless, and always will. I do play power without sleeves. And I am going to blackborder out my duals, and I still won't play sleeves.
