Poisions,bah! I'll stick to my 349082349038 ''destroy target creature that looks at me funny'' cards :p

On a side note, go zombies!

I can think of a couple of ways to make this deck a lot better now that I look at it. Also, don't freak out about the mana amount. I've won plenty of games with 4 or 5 land out. The deck actually runs surprisingly well on three mana, as long as two of those are plains. That said, now I want to tinker with it.

My infect deck is mostly green with a splash of black. It's really fast, and designed to be that way, so I've skipped proliferation in favour of green boosts. The idea I use Corpse Curs to bring back disposable infect creatures (and my putrefaxes!), then as soon as something gets through I throw 2 giant growths/groundswells/vines of vastwoods on them.

Opponent: I'll take the 1 point counter from the plague stinger, I guess.
Me: Actually, you'll take 8 poison counters from that plague stinger.

Unless they're against a sliver deck while playing a sliver deck... while owning Sliver Overlord.

(Do you want to compare [del]evil bastard[/del] sliver deck notes?)
Unless its vintage vintage, I believe I know the notes I need to know. I have a R/G/W/U sliver deck that works just fine :)

There is really an angry kitties deck. It's not totally type 2 legal, but it's fun. Basically, it's structured around having lots of cats, really fast - a standard hit 'em quick and hit 'em hard type deck. Lots of flying cats too, and a hearty dose of red instants to keep things moving quickly. It's not the greatest, but I don't intend to play it competitively. I have a green black infect deck I'm honing to a fine, infectious point for that.
Sounds like fun. I have a deck similar to that, but mono green. If you can get it, its an uncommon from worldwake so its still standard, Canopy Cover [http://magiccards.info/wwk/en/98.html], I've found that any kind of evasion really help a deck like that work.

Dammit, now I'm somewhat interested in Magic. This raises my nerd level by at least 2.8 kiloGygaxes... (and I'm pretty sure that joke only made it worse)

Play Magic or you will die without knowing how to destroy Cthulhu with a squirrel.

That sounds unbelievably cheap/awesome/fun to annoy people, like a blue deck :p

player 1: Ha!, now you'll take 11 dmg from my blaz-
player 2: *yawn* Cancel.
player 1: FUUUUUUUUUUUUU-wait.AH! so I'll jsut attack with my army of gob-
player2: Time Stop.
player 1:*eats up deck*

and don't get me started on Counterbore...

Why do you run both versions of Ajani? Sure, your deck has a theme, but if you draw one when the other is already in play, you may as well have just drawn a card saying "As an extra cost to play this, shoot yourself in the foot."

I just noticed you could use some Ajani's Mantra too, you get 1 life on your upkeep and a +1/+1 to the Pridemate, though that's more suited for a slow deck like my soldier deck

There's only two so they don't often come out together. Plainswalkers are pretty disposable, and it's AMAZINGLY funny to say "oh, you killed Ajanai. Look who's back! Ajani Vengeant! He's the angriest kitty!!"

I just never could get into Magic. Then again, I abhore most card games for some reason. I don't mind board games, but card games just aren't my thing.

This was a GREAT Hustle and definitely up to par and as enjoyable as any of the first season! I can't wait to see what ya'll come up with next. Nice to see Tim one last time to say goodbye, lets hope he forgot something else so he'll stop by once and a while :D.

Also, the switch of Tim and Alex was just great :D

I do love green for that, are you also using Untamed Might? If you have a lot of forests in your deck, then Primal Below is also a nice green boost card.

My GOD.

My workmates and I just did this video...in real life.

I mean, everything, like...

That is SCARY guys. We hadn't played in about 9 years. And that is what happened...

I know the feeling, a month ago I was with my friends and we saw a bunch of dudes playing Magic, and I've found out that my mates used to play it too....and ever since we play it like 3948390488 times a day.

Great episode, also still not interested in playing the game. Partly because there is no one to play against and it is expensive.
Yes, for Remembrance Day.

Geez Matt, I just looked at some of those cards, did you buy a majority of those Angels as singles? My friend runs an Angel deck, and I'm sure she wouldn't mind some of those cards, I was only able to pull a Baneslayer Angel for her out of those Mytic Rares.
