I'm always changing this damned avatar so here's a blown up readable version that should outlast it:

Land+Printer+Glue=Black Lotus. 😉

There are so many things wrong with that card. It can't be part black when the CC has only blue in it. Also it can't have a colored border and be an artifact.

Dude, I think you're completely oblivious to the point here. It's a joke card.

I'll occasionally play online, but I don't really keep up with the game, the sets, or the new strategic developments and concepts.

Also... AMaster, have you seen the new Sygg yet?

The first card is a joke card therefore it doesn't count. The transguild courier has an ability that makes it all colors. And the Myr is from the future. So technically it doesn't exist.

Here is your new avatar using Magic Set Editor, Gleeok. I think it looks much better.

OOOOH!!! Make me one!!!

EDIT: I actually read up a bit, and I can make my own. Nevermind. 😮

Aaaahh!!!! Nice. 😊 Your right, that looks way better. I'll have to check it out now. Thanks!

You use MSE too, AlphaDawg? You using the latest version?
Hmmm, maybe I need my own avatar card...

Heh, yeah, I saw the new Sygg. It's alright, decent body for the cost. The effect is a bit to slow for my tastes.
Eh, if I pull one I'll run it, but I'm not going to go out of the way...
Now:

is intriguing. I'm thinking of mixing my old Simic Deck with my Merfolk, maybe get some counter-manipulating fun...
An army of Merfolk with Flying and Deathtouch that gain me life whenever they attack!

On a related note, anyone here know of an aura or something that generates mana whenever the creature is tapped by an external source?
I want to go infinite with Drowner of Secrets and one of the untap Merfolk.

I just got back from my pilgrimage to the Shadowmoor prerelease. I did OK, finishing with a 10-5 match record in four "flights" (mini 32-man tournaments) over two days. I usually do a little better. Oh well. Such is life...

It works like this:
[LIST=1]
[*] Play High Tide.
[*] Tap an Island to add two blue mana to your mana pool thanks to High Tide.
[*] Activate Earthcraft by tapping Leech Bonder to untap the Island.
[*] Use one blue to untap Leech Bonder using its ability.
[*] Repeat until you have as much blue mana as cards in your opponent's library.
[*] Activate Drowner of Secrets by tapping Leech Bonder.
[*] Use one blue to untap Leech Bonder using its ability. Lather, rinse, repeat until you deck your opponent. Pray your opponent doesn't play Gaea's Blessing.
[*] Say "Go." GG![/LIST]Keep in mind you don't actually have to have a counter to move in order to use Leech Bonder. Target itself and your Drowner if you like.

Shit, if you want, build the deck on Magic Workstation and I'll play one of my casual decks against it. (You'll have to wait until the Shadowmoor patch is released, of course. It shouldn't take long.)

Eh, don't have the money for Workstation, unfortunatly. You have Apprentice?

Heh, the Gatherer Spoiler went up yesterday, and I've already checked a good deal of the set out. Looks like some pretty sweet stuff...

Apprentice is old and busted.

Magic Workstation, while it does have a "full-featured" version that costs money, is perfectly usable for testing/casual play for free. Only one person I know has actually registered it.

Give it a shot!

I play around once every month or two, mostly black. Favorite cards (for the reactions):

Stone Rain

Diabolic Tutor
