a bunch of stuff

You just copied and pasted the original post, replacing "Legacy" with "this thread."  Do you think we're dumb?

I think this reply speaks for itself kind of wonderfully.  And I agree with the actual point Gunslinga was making entirely.

As to the topic of the thread: Legacy has a net-positive impact on Vintage.  People buy FoWs, fetches, and duals, and therefore have a solid base to build proxy 13 Vintage lists, as well as an interest in playing more powerful cards.

Legacy exists because it gives people like me, who can't afford duals and blue cards, with a chance to compete even at the highest levels with whatever deck I feel. 

Can't afford Vintage?  Play this: http://www.themanadrain.com/index.php?topic=37439.0  or this: http://www.themanadrain.com/index.php?topic=36980.0 Smile

Peace,

Oh Herbig.  As much as this is clearly a thread straight off The Source, I fear most of the people here are completely missing the point.  Still, awesome.

What kind of 'eternal' format is so weak you can't even play with 1 damn Sol Ring or Demonic Tutor?

Is that even true though?  I've been playing my sol ring at my shop every Saturday and no one says it's banned.  They even allow 4x Prosperity.

Troy_Costisick and all the rest of the Smmennenites need to stop attacking a legitimate format that is far more fun and better balanced than losing to Tendrils of Agony or Morphling for the hundredth damn time.

I get what you're trying to do here, but it's not helping this tragedy of a thread.  Verbal warning for spam/trolling.  -DA

There is no way in hell you are not trolling.

Why does this thread exist?

Just to get it out of the way I really despise this thread and hate the fact that it was created in the first place.

All emotion aside though I'd really like to hear a few opinions from people on the following:

    * Is this thread killing Vintage? How bad of an effect is this thread having on Vintage?
    * Why is it worth it for this thread to exist?  Instead of one small format criticizing another one, couldn't we be 1 large community to shore up and draw in as large of a player base as possible?
    * If it is proven that this thread is a bad idea, doesn't that in essence prove that there is no reason for reaperbong to exist?
    * Do you think there is a chance for reaperbong to die out/be canceled as a TMD member in the future? How long will we be stuck with him?


Any answers/opinions to the above would be appreciated. I can of course elaborate further thoughts/reasoning behind any of these inquiries.

Thanks

Thread closed, warnings to follow.  Reaperbong, channeling KIR on this board again will result in a swift ban.
