Article -- Back to Basics, Counting Tempo Part III

Quote In 2003, however, I feel that even the concept "mana" as broadly discussed doesn't cover everything about tempo. Also around 1997, another writer - the venerable Robert Hahn - also articulated his "time theory," but grounding it in attack phases. He noted how some decks created "windows of opportunity" that led to a couple of crucial extra turns of damage dealing, and the methods ranged from land destruction to bounce and removal.

Oscar,
Nice article overall. However, that part about type 0 is a little dated. We helped that guy out in the unregistered forum (
"improving" Necro Trix), and came up with a stronger deck. Here's a hint: Yawgmoth's Will and Mind's Desire > Necro.  

I sent you an email about this too, in case you want to throw that decklist into your next article.

Where's the Fish?

Other than that, a good article as always.

HOW MUCH IS TEH FISH  

Anyway, I agree with Jacob on the t0-age, and at least this one was somewhat more interesting then the others. A job well done I suppose.

Wow, it only took you till the opening sentence this time to talk about your drinking problem.

We had problems with the Star City server again, so I assume the mail was lost. Kindly re-e-mail, your answer is probably better than mine or Carl's considering it's not something we seriously pondered at length.

As long as my name is mentioned, I'm happy

Sure. Just mail over half a bottle of Johnny Walker then tell me to use it the next time you AIM.

Incidentally, I've been sick, so I haven't replied to your discussion on 'Tog being the new Necrodeck structure. I was going to wonder if it was more of the Enigma though.
