  1. I personaly think that green from Magic 2010 and onwards was very strong. The thing is it had to compatate with things like, Jace the Wallet Sculptor, Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle , and Stoneforge Mystic at the time. Thankfully both Jace and Mistic were banned (still too late IMO). But that was not full scale of the problem. It was the fact that the fun cards like Vengevine, Avenger of Zendikar, Omnath and Gaea's Revenge were all overshadowed by Eldrazi/Titan cycle and later Wurmcoil Engine and Blightsteel Colossus. About Scars set? Only Thrun was used more often - Melira and Vorinclex were both skipped over. Situation got a bit better in Innistrad but as long as Premival Titan is here they will not get much deserved love. Worse yet, Green have few choices regarding Planeswalkers - Nissa is to narrow and weak and three other are all Garruk! Two of his incarnations are strong sure but what about competition? Blue got three Jace's, Tezzaret and Tamiyo, white had Gideon, two Elspeth and Ajani - the last one will get new, good incarnation soon. On the borderline we have Sorin L.of I. , Venser and Tezzaret(Secret Agent Man). The snide one's will point at Karn but he was all the hype only. Conclusion? Green need's new planeswalker - strong one to boot. I supose we will see Kior Atura soon, which can be good even if she will be partialy Blue.

  3. It's all thanks to Invasion block basicly. It was well recived so Wizards took a shot to do the same later. After that we had sweet, sweet Ravnica. Shadowmoor and Eventide made Multicolor even more worth of notice thanks to hybrid mana (first introduced in Ravnica) . After that we got Alara which was very fun block to play. In a nutshell the power level of the cards is much, much higher then in the past especially multicolor cards (Spinx of Steel Wind and Progenitus being good exemples).
  4. Annnnd once again to the battlefield! Hurt: Cheerilee - 6 Power Up: Twilight Sparkle Hex: Rarity
  5. (OOC: I hope no one mind if I join in? With the villan post to boot.) Meanwhile in Manehattan. The teal colored unicorn trotted alone trought the tunel, deep benath the streets of the city. The walls of stone were cold and wet but it was not the first time the mare was here. Indeed she traveled trought here often, after all she was the "right claw" of her Master. Finaly she made it to the massive, richly encrusted doors. Mare knocked one of the wings precise number of times with her horn and the gates opened. She entered the cave - but it was not the normal grotto - the whole place was sinking in luxury. The stone surfance was not left to nature, instead it was shaped into scenes of ages past. She new that her Master actually was witness of every one of these events. The furniture , stalagmites and stalactites also was decorated with silver. Silver and only silver for Master despised the gold. There were many more wonders within this cave but mare wasted enought time, she moved deeper, guided by few magical lamps here and there. Finaly she was at her destination. "My Lord" Mare said. In the darkness the pair of ruby red eyes opened. The slitted pupils glared at the newly arrived pony. "Ah" said the deep yet soft voice in pleased tone "Wood Whisper - timely as alwayssss...what news do you bring my dear Shrashavaska?" Wood Whisper felt the goosebumps from joy of being prised by her Lord. "We found him my Lord. Grey, that is. He's at little town of Ponyville." "Grey? Excellent newssss Shrashavaska, excellent news. Ponyville...hmmm that could be problematic, close to Canterlot yessss." He said and brooded for a moment. "Yessss.He chosen wisely but not wisely enought. Finaly he will be punished." voice said with satisfaction. "Shall I go and deal with him myself my Lord? Or dispatch our minions to deal with him?" she asked. "Neither. As I ssssaid my dear Whisper it's too close to Royal Centre for that. No. We will use Bounty Huntersss instead." " Very well my Lord. The usuall ones?" Wood asked to be sure. "No. The best ones. There is more in him then meets the eye, we can not risk failure." "Very well Sir. I will deal with it immediately" "Of course you will Shrashavaska. After all it's you." the male chuckled a little. The mare bowed and dissappeared back into darkness. He waited for a moment after whitch he picked a fireheart ruby from a silver bowl with his white claw and took a bite. " Very soon Grey, very soon. It's a shame really - the pony with your skills.... But you chosed wrong. NO ONE refuses Dragon Lord of Crime. You will pay for your frivolity...it's inevitable." The white like snow dragon grinned in the darkness and gave a sinister laughter.
  6. Magic changed a lot since Legions my friend. With things like removal of Mana Burn, adding Planeswalkers and much, much more it's whole diffrent game. If i was to name my favourite deck it would propably be "Tezzerator", cose I just adore artifact and Tezz is my number 2 after Venser.
  7. Enthropy control? Kinda cool. It not only controls temerature, it screws most (if not all) chemical reactions as well. I would chose teleportation. Who knows, maybe it allows to teleport items as well (I don't see why not). If it does not then Replicate.
  8. I would gladly get rid of black, but Demon is very much needed to fetch the Surge, also he is pernament. Surge itself is only non pernament in deck to maximize it's power. I'am bit concerned about splicer. I didn't really finded much trouble wih keeping him on the table but... What sideboard would you propose weesh?
  9. Isn't Vinyl and Octy on MAX already? Anyway Hurt: Doctor - 6 Power Up: Twilight Sparkle Hex: Doctor
  10. Naaah, It's nothing. Besides nothing as fun as teaming up to kill!
  11. Errr....Heal? Oh well....I am not complaining type. Hurt: Soarin - 6 Power Up: Twilight Sparkle x 2
  12. This time I will write about the Soul series from Namaco: Soul Edge/Blade: The best intro ever - Edge of Soul that is. Both and versions.In regards to individual character thems - cake goes to Cervantes for the and it's version. Other special awards goes to (screw you Yun Seong!) and Soul Calibur: This time IMO intro was disappointing. First Calibur does not posses as might soundtrack as Edge/Blade. Still... Cervantes once again does not fail us coming with . Sophitia this time is really badass - - as is Mitsurugi with his theme. Last mention goes to Maxi and his .Soul Calibur II: This time we got bonda fine .In regard of the themes - Diamond Trophy goes to my favourite theme of the series Brave Sword, Braver Soul. Confrontation the Lakeside Coliseum theme is close second. The last (but not the Last!) goes to Eternal Struggle from Pirate Alcove stage (whitch proves that Cervantes is THE MAN). Soul Calibur III: Some good themes are brought back (Confrontation, Sailing Over The Strom). In regards of the new one's - Wings of Despair and Time Marches On (this stage is pure genius!)
  13. Another day another vo...Ohhhh INTERESTING. Heal: Applejack +2 Lyra +1 Power Up: Twilight Sparkle: Hex: Bon-Bon Hurt: Princess Celestia - 3 [ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED] - The Sunslayer <demonic chuckle>
  14. Rarity at max? Can't leave it as this are we? Heal: Twilight Sparkle +2 Hurt: Rarity - 4 Power Up: Twilight Sparkle Hex: Princess Luna
  15. <Sight> Another one of this hard questions? I can write about Video Games Music for hours. Skyrim - (and everything else Jeremy Soule ever made - he himself can makes 3 pages long list of awesome music)Arkham City - Halo 3 - One Final Effort Tekken 3 - Jin Kazama (both Arranged and Arcade) Vagrant Story - half of the soundtrack here Final Fantasy VII - same here Final Fantasy IX - and here (altrought i like "Terra" and "Place of Memory" the most) Valkyrie Profile - and (Oh Lezard, how I love thee!)Ace Combat 5: The Unsung War - Ok, enought for now.
  16. Edited my last vote. Let well alone. For isn't it mentor best wish to have student suprass him/her? It's the cycle reapeting again and again - Endless Waltz one can say. Be disgusted with me, disagree with me. But! I WILL defend my point with votes, magic and dakka. Much, much DAKKA.
  17. Another day, another vote. Hurt: Celestia - 6 Power Up: Twilight Sparkle Hex: Celestia
  18. Nein! Not behemots, Mossbridge Troll! You can activate his ability when Aria's check is on the stack. Other good creatures are Agless Entity or Scut Mob. But let's leave that for now shall we? After seeing Primal Surge Timmy in me gasped in awe...then my inner Johnny begun to thik about deck based on this one. So I did it. Few things to note: I used only Standard legal cards, also I don't expect it to win often, just pure joy. Also it's is for duels only. End of talking time for decklist! Deck: Primal Surge Pod Format: Casual (yet Standard legal) Colors: W/G/R/B Ramp: 4x Birds of Paradise 4x Viridian Emissary 2x Scorned Villager 3x Sphere of the Suns 4x Solemn Simulacrum 3x Primeval Titan Tutors: 4x Birthing Pod 1x Brutalizer Exarch (for Demon or Abolisher) 1x Rune-Scarred Demon Birthing Pod Guys: 1x Grand Abolisher (only in turn when we wan't to play Surge obviously) 1x Blade Splicer (holds the line and it extends Pod chain) 1x Vorapede 1x Urabrask the Hidden (if he comes with Surge then its Game Rover) 1x Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite Removal: 2x Oblivion Ring Finishers: 1x Blightsteel Colossus 1x Primal Surge Others: 1x Omen Machine (Key tech card. After casting Surge the easiest way to lose is the card draw aimed at us. That's why Machine is here - it won't allow us to lose even if we do not finish the opponent in one Alpha Strike. We can cast it durning game as well,especially if we have Pod on the battlefield as well ) Lands: 2x Slayers' Stronghold (key land if Urabrask will eat dirt or if we use him in Pod chain; : Target creature gets +2/+0, vigilance and haste until EOT) 1x Kessig Wolf Run (after Surge we have so much mana that we can kill using BoP) 1x Gavony Township (can pump-up mana guys at last) 3x Razorverge Thicket (weak when we cast Surge, better to suck them with titans) 4x Sunpetal Grove 2x Rootbound Crag 1x Woodland Cemetery 2x Swamp 2x Mountain 2x Plains 4x Forest I tested this. Resolved Surge ends game ASAP (And putting the 30 pernaments into play is just cool). Can be done in tur six. Of course it's better to prepare for that with Abolisher and it slows down the process. Fun to play though.
  19. Sir! Sir! Where is Ancien Ziggurat Sir? Also, Mirari's Wake and Mayael's Aria Sir!
  20. Study?! <gasp> It's practically a war crime in multiplayer! Speaking of war crimes - Grand Arbiter Augustin IV and (if your playgroup allows Un-sets cards) Frankie Peanuts (my favourite!).
  21. Your resolve is worth of praise, but your mind apparenty can not fathom the superiority of Arcane Arts! We WILL meet again, alas not today. Heal: Twilight Sparkle + 3 Hurt: Princess Luna - 3 Power Up: Twilight Sparkle Hex: Applejack
  22. I don't like either Border Patrol nor Mastodon. Weesh have good sugestion about Wall of Omens. I myslef thought would pick Ghostly Prision whitch is amazing in multiplayer. Also - Brainstorm, definitly Brainstorm. Meishin, the Mind Cage can stop offense dead. About creatures - Jushi Apprentice (whitch flips into mighty Tomoya), Aracanis, the Omnipotent, Tomorrow, Azami's Familiar , Slith Strider. Also any Jace would fit. Speaking of Jace Erasure can mill opponents easly with that munch of draw.
  23. I gonna write assuming that you will get these cards in the future even if you don't own them yet weesh. I would remove one Lord of Shatterskull I guess, even if you manage to power him up to max immidiately he still needs haste so swaping for Sarkhan can be good. If you would add Khamahl it's either him or Obsidian - they don't mix well. Isn't that extra Kumano is not too much, he's Legendary after all? For other things one Feral for Apocalypse. Also Basilisk Collar might help Kumano, Trophy Hunter and Ashling and it grants extra survivability (and with Ashling it is board wipe and mass life gain). Also I don't like Desert Twister - too expensive - maybe Beast Within instead? 3/3 is not much of a threat and lower cost and instant speed are worth it in my book.
  24. If you are the Blue Mage Thebluemage...then how you learn spells? By being hit by monsters.... OR by eating monsters?!
  25. Ha ha! Time to jump into the fray! Heal: Twilight Sparkle + 5 HURT: Lyra -1 Power-up: Twilight Sparkle Hex: Rarity
