Extort/Lifelink niggaaa

When I get home, thinking of building a Channelball deck on Magic Workstation. Not an unfair cheaty one that ignores the banned/restricted list, but one that can go off on turn 3 at earliest.

 

[The Ozzman]

So, I am going to participate in a Modern style tournament today after I get off work. This is assuming enough people show up.

Fuck Standard

Oh, related to Black Lotus:

It went for 27k at an auction

When I make my millions it goes like this....

1. new house
2. new car(s)
3. magic Cards

 

[The Ozzman]

Never use 1, 2, or 3-ofs, EXCEPT for planeswalkers. 4-ofs only.

I only have 1x most of these since I bought them second hand. Some of these cards are 15 bucks as singles.

Now I know you don't know what you're talking about.

I've been out of the game for a while, but this has NEVER been true. 1-ofs, maybe...

 

[The Ozzman]

Especially if you have a strategy for the specific deck. In Commander, you can only have one of everything, no more.

It has been true for about 7-8 years in Standard. If you don't run 4-ofs of your vital cards, you won't draw them. And if you're building a competitive deck, you don't run non-vital cards.

 

[The Ozzman]

Picked up a fat pack for Born of the Gods and I pulled an 8 dollar card in the first pack. I ended up playing with a guy today after my Pathfinder session and he gave me a box with like 400 commons/uncommons in it for no charge. As a result, he kicked my ass by beating me 5 times in a row.

 

[The Butt]

Nice, what was the rare?

 

[The Ozzman]

Arbiter of Ideals or whatever

 

[The Ozzman]

Made two more decks: Mono Black and Mono White. I need to get the cards that bring shit out of exile and then the Mono Black deck would be absolutely ridiculous.

I do not think such a card exists, sadly. Likely wrong, but too lazy to do a more in-depth search.

 

[The Ozzman]

There are a few that exist

 

[The Butt]

The only thing I know of is white cards that flicker stuff out thn instantly back in
