This. Or maybe Mark Hamill.

Swift Squall stopped in his track. That kind of griffon...no...that kind of personality was what he despised with burning passion. Yes...unicorn could easily imagine doing something wicked. "Ah that kind of worldview. How about...putting it to the test?" he asked. With the sudden burst of speed he come in front of her. It almost looked like a teleportation but the hat laying on floor proved otherwise. Before anypony could react his face was just the inch from her beak. "One should trample other huh?" he asked, his voice cold like the midnight air in middle of winter. " Very well then. Let's see who will trample who...." his horn glowed and the crow around was taken aback, thinking that Swift is casting a combat spell. To their surprise the other, unused table was flying trought air. It landed just next to Swift and Gilda. "...at legwrestling." he finished. Unicorn detached one of the swords that was hanging on his belt and throwed it at the table. "My parlay is this aquellian, while the only thing I require from you is your pride. We use this..." his horn flashed again as Swift removed the solid piece of cloth that holded his mane together in the ponytail. The cascades of hair falled on his back and shoulders. "...to tie our limbs, so nopony gonna backtrot form this. So how about griffon? Up to it?" he asked in mocking tone - sure that Gilda will not ignore the challenge. Waiting or the replay he glared at the Duke of Manehattan without moving his head, giving him the flash of one of his emerald eyes. "Don't you dare interrupt Polaris. I know you mean well...but some things can't be solved by words alone." Squall said in tone reserved to his equals.

Silly weesh. There are muffins and there are muffins<ominous thrunder>. The muffins<ominous thunder> are just like the Evil Pizza but sweet. Oh and they have extra bits of dark chocolate. And yes, only EVIL have them.

Evil Overlord! Evil Overlord! Evil has class, cool clothes, is ritch and most importantly - it posseses muffins! Where was I? Oh yes. GGGGEEETTTTAAAAA BEEAAAAAMMMUUUUU!!!!!!! Hurt: Chrysalis -6 Hex: Chrysalis x2

I guess we can use this topic to discuss some errors. First off - Swift Squall certainly isn't a pegasus. Second - he's Sunglasses at Night pony. Any attempts to describe his eye's can't be possible for shades obscure them completely.

When Swift got at the meeting place he encountered quite the grouping of other ponies. Thay were here for the job that was clear. As he expected the yacht itself wasn't adjusted to the mission thatawiated it. Squall needed to disperse crowd in some way... Why, he would propably be capeble of doing it with force of his two swords - but the tought of doing such unjust thing disgusted him, and straight out lieing wasn't his style either unless that was necessary. But a little exaggeration... So he began to trot from one group of waiting ponies - who gossiped to kill some time - to another. A little commen here, interjection there...and some doubt slipped in, just as Squall planned. The discouraged ponies begun to leave. Some bold ones stayed of course, but now Squall could handle them. He launched into long speech, which undermined both sense and propability of success of this escapade. That was the last straw - the last ponies left ans Squall was left alone with the captain. "Frightening, how powerfull force the spoken word can be." quoted unicorn, pondered the situation he founded himself in. But then the lone pegasi mare begun approaching the docked airship. "Mrs. Candy I presume? We need to talk...about this expedition you planning"

I choose Sir Christopher Lee. I mean - he's awesome! Guinness World Record holder for most film acting roles ever, knighted for services to drama and charity, sings heavy metal, fought in WW II. He played many famous villans - Count Dooku (he did much of the swordplay himself!), Saruman (only person in film's cast who met John Ronald Reuel Tolkien), Francisco Scaramanga (fun fact - Sir Lee is the cousin of Ian Fleming), Dracula, Frankenstein monster, Rasputin (Lee apparently met Rasputin's assassin Felix Yussupov when he was a child), Fu Manchu, Jekyll and Hyde, Lord Summerisle. He also played Muhammad Ali Jinnah(founder of the modern Pakistan) Sir Henry Baskerville, Mycroft Holmes and finaly Sherlock himself. He was also the voice of DiZ in Kingdom Hearts II and 358/2 Days and the Discworld Death.

Only when the other unicorn spoke to him Swift noticed his presence. His eyes widened in surprise - Thanks Celestia for his shades which hidden that reaction - for Squall reconized that stalion immediately. It was Polaris, Duke of Manhattan. "Great" he tought "Duke of Manehattan and Count of Fillydelphia in the same tent. How great feed for the media" Well maybe not...his father was a press magnate and usually - at Squall request - titles that belonged to him didn't written about him much. Even the Count of Fillydelphia thing wasn't real. While it was true that Swift Squall was count he didn't possesed any real political power. It just so happened that he was sole heir of the last surviving familiy among "The Founding Eight" - eight aristocratic clans who seattled over Manebrush River. That in turn brought other settlers to that location...and that was how Fillydelphia was made. Count of Fillydelphia was just public nickname - Squall didn't care but at the same time, knew that other did and that they took it seriously. But it appeared that Polaris didn't reconized him. Squall prefered for it to stay that way. He respected Duke diplomatic accomplishments but in Swift opinnion except being nobles they didn't happen to have much in common - opposite in fact. Except that their mothers knew each other and were friends - both former sportsmares and such... Still Squall was sure that mom wasn't speaking much about her son - him being runaway and all... He still pulled down tail of his coat to hide his Cutie Mark. Just in case... "No...there is nothing wrong with winning." emerald maned stallion replied finaly. "At least not until it will overshadow everything else. I seen to many who wanted to be victorious so much that they forgotten the very purpose why they desired to win in first place." he took another sip with glum expression on his face. He indeed observed many ponies and not ponies in his day as the sell sword. Many wasted their lives aming to win at all cost. He shuddered at the tought that he could join them, if not for that one discovery about some crates and their true content... " Don't get me wrong. I too aim for the top. But not for all cost. It's the desire which is dangerous not winning itself." he put now empty glass back on the table. " Now if you excuse me..." he turned around, troting towards tent exit.

Swift Squall listened to speech Fire Walker give. He noded to confirm her words but his eyebrows rose when she said anchor. "Err...what my Fire said is true. Indeed I am heir of Squallcoast." he said " but I see no reason why Mr. Battle Mage should move to errr other side. Maybe he just like here - and frankly speaking I would't mind." He waved his hoof around on illusionary surroundings. " I mean just look! With his knowledge of manor previous look renovations could be much faster. And he lived for so long, we can only learn from his experience." Suddenly a transparent cloud appeared on the other side of the table. It begun swirling and after few seconds it formed the shape of the pony. The four was taken aback but the unicorn ghost gave them warm smile. Swift gathered his composure and closed to the spirit. "Mr....Battle Mage I assume?" he asked. The phantom nodded and suddenly an image flashed trought Swift Squall head. " He..he 'says' that his name is Conjurer Bubble." swordstallion was silent for the moment. He was sure that he was first of his family who communicated with the dead...and it was exciting. " Mr. bubble then...I must ask you then...about that rumored insanity of yours." The ghost gained more detail which each moment. The form he took was clearly from his prime. He was as tall as Squallbut more slim. One can also describe him as hoofsome except he was both dead and transparent. The Conjurer face became moody. More images flashed before swift eyes. "I..I see...and I am sorry. Passing away must been liberation for you." he turned around and faced others. " The madness was fault of his body." living unicorn explained. Even rought he told Fire to not pity the dead he couldn't feel otherwise. Living in such state must been horrible. Suddenly something like the urge stung his mind. "Err...Mr. Bubble wish to know you before he would touch your minds as well." To tell the truth Swift also wished to know the two pegasi more. The ghost wish came up just perfectly so Squall couldn't complain. Unexpectedly Oak Branch started first. "Well....my name is Oak Branch. I am butler of Master Swift and I was serving Squallcoast family all my life. I wouldn't leave my position for anything else for one can not ask for more just and warm employer. I served Young Master grandfather, his mother and if fate will be gracious enought I will serve Young Master children as well." The declaration of Oaks loyality left Swift speechless and touched. Oak was more of his uncle then servant - in his mind Squall sweared to employ enought servants so old earth pony wouldn't strain himself too much.

"And yet...no one is the champion forever. Iron of today is rust of tomorrow." said unicorn stallion who troted to the tent. Dressed in grey trench coat, stetson on his head , green non-transparent sunglasses covering his eyes and two swords on his sides, Swift Squall was looking for a drink. And he founded it. "Can I have a lemonade please? Thank you." he asked Lady and put bids on the table with his magic. "And yes, I know it's free...but such resourcefulness and..." he took a sip "..and care put in making such refreshment just needs to be rewarded." few more coins joined those already on the table. He was overpaying three times but he didn't care. "It's rather sad that are some who does not understand spirit of competition. It's the struggle that counts...testing ones limits." he turned his head towards Gilda. "I wonder miss griffon...are you trying to prove something or you making up for other things? While victory gives us satisfaction the loss always teach us something."

I have other rare goodies including Mishra's Workshops (three copies) and even one Mox Jet (gulp!). It's a very amusing story how I got theese (And one can wonder how they ended in Poland huh?) I will say other time. I guess that Damnation is the better choice. Korlash after all is hust acceleration engine and isn't that important. At first Mutilate was going to be the option but I rejected it cose it killed Korlash no matter what. Now that he is not win con anymore I guess Planar Chaos sweeper will be better choice. Still I will leave BSZ in sideboard just in case.

Mission Accepted, I will assist in this attack. Hurt: Vinyl Scrach -2 Chrysalis -4 Hex: Applejack Chrysalis

The premise of the deck is to send your opponent's guys to the moon to get in with copious amounts of damage. On fiend hunter, there's a rule where if he returns to the battlefield before his second ability resolves, the exiled creature stays exiled FOREVER! That's where the blink spells come in. I can mass exile a bunch of creatures using o-rings, fiend hunter + cloudshift/restoration angel/ghostly flicker, dispatch (sb), and Celestial purge (sb). Snapcaster squeezes extra value off those blink spells and exile spells from the sideboard. What do you guys think? Heh, I like that. Especially since it's very similiar to casual Venser deck I posted a while back in this topic. it suits my playing style.

Yes... I am myself aren't that sure about this construction, zombie knights just don't do as expected. I am thinking about adding Stuffy Doll and Tendrils of Corruption. I guess it's better to change it to something like this... (1) Dark Ritual x4, Sensei's Dividing Top, Sol Ring,Candelabra of Tawnos, Bubbling Muck x2, (2) Exsanguinate x3 (3) Staff of Domination x1, Phyrexian Arena x4, Oppression (4) Liliana of the Dark Realms x2, Korlash, Heir to Blackblade x4, Black Sun Zenith x2, Greed x2, Tendrils of Corruption x3 (5) Stuffy Doll x2 (6) Sorin Markov (8) Griselbrand Lands: Cabal Coffers x2 Swamp x 23 I also considered to cut one Swamp and add Kokusho, just for giggles.

Best. Application. Ever. I been on edge of my seat reading this, expecting breaking of the Fourth Wall. I didn't happen....but maybe it was breaked by not breaking it, for it was expected that we would expect?

I am surprised that Lyra ones don't have attachable hands<snicker> On other hoof...doesn't 'Lulamoon' part also came from the fandom? I encountered it in some fanfic many months ago....not quite sure. And call me picky but I don't quite like this figures....Guess it's my own expectations, and even can see why myself (three shelfs of Gundams and other models) so I don't count.

Not needed. Zero System showed me this outcome. Also.... Chrysalis....I kill you.
