I know how you feel. I quit playing back when Ice Age was new. But back then, I played White/Red. I played Red and Black were colors that I didn't have multiple friends that played them, so I could trade for their cards on the cheap. I dropped Black because I didn't like the self-destructive style, but Red's "things go boom" was awesome. I eventually added White because I felt it was the best color to add-in for some defensive purposes.vxicepickxv said:
Official rules say you may mulligan, you shuffle your hand back into your deck and draw six cards, if you don't like that you may do it again for five, technicly you ca keep doing it but after you hit about four there's not much point.Witty Name Here said:
The Scars of Mirrodin set has a card called Clone Shell that, if the card is within the next four cards you would draw, you can set it face down while clone shell is out, then when clone shell is destroyed, BOOM, instead doomsday beastie.Sir John the Net Knight said:You're awfully new to this, I assume. Most games of Magic are over long before even 10 mana is conceivable to be out on the table. Much less 15. I can't think of too many cards that would help you get this out on the table that are still in circulation. Black Lotus, Sol Ring, Dark Ritual, Channel maybe. Even if you had them, I doubt anyone would play against that deck. For obvious reasons.XxRyanxX said:..That.. is seriously without a doubt the most overpowered card I have ever came across. That right there would dominate and I give you Congrats for having such a unique card! *Impressed* Oh and your other cardBrownie101 said:
Even though I say the first card is literally my #1 of dominator, this card above is also very powerful and I would really not want to take you on with such a deck with the like of these cards.. Haha.
Edited due to after thought:Sir John the Net Knight said:IMO, if a card costs more than 5 mana, it had better say "Opponent loses next turn."Lokithrsourcerer said:well i have a few:
I have a pretty much unbeaten dark steel artefact (colourless to the non players) affinity deck (its funny when u get a dark steel colossus on the table most people throw in the towel lol)
but I only tend to get that out when new people tip up to games night boasting about how good they are.
I have a red shivan dragon deck (first deck I ever built about 10 years ago)
a red and black eldrazi deck (interesting block but gets a bit dull after a few games)
I have a blue deck manipulation, deck that i'm still refining (you always need a project lol) but i did pick up this recently:
A true M:tG fan knows exactly what I'm getting at.
ahh the good old days are really over my friend I realised that when a good friend of mine sold his black lotus on ebay to pay his mortgage re-payment.Sir John the Net Knight said:

A quick question on Protection: is it still in effect even if the creature is in the graveyard? Cuz if that's the case, I don't think you can Animate Dead/Exhume Emrakul.
This really brings back memories... I was really enthralled by this way back when MD5 was Standard. That is, until I hit the realization that this hobby was making my poor college boy ass even poorer.
Yeah, I kinda got reminded of that one while I was driving home. Anyway, the question still stands (creature protection from black in the graveyard being targeted by Exhume or something similar).Manji187 said:"When Emrakul is put into a graveyard FROM ANYWHERE its owner shuffles his or her graveyard into his or her library"Syntax Error said:You'll need 9 mana, btw (you need to pay the Entwine cost if you don't have it in your hand yet).Chamale said:Oh, you don't have to spend a whole 7 mana to put an Eldrazi into play.

How can one Exhume when there is no legal target in the graveyard (as it is empty)?
A few reasons:Sir John the Net Knight said:
I see... Heh, the only way I can see how to not get gibbed when Emrakul goes into play is if you have a Vedalken Orrery in place before it gets out, then play a Wrath of God.Sir John the Net Knight said:
Hmmm... Which format? I'm guessing Standard only. I also hung out in card shops, so my Broodstar Affinity deck got a lot of exercise. It can be faster than Ravfinity (only in the toughest of tough deck draws). The only deck type it really lost to most of the time is the aforementioned Green Artifact Hate (turn one Oxidize, turn 3 Viridian Shaman). Any green deck at the time, actually.Sir John the Net Knight said:
