wow.. only 2 dudes ?
I would've thought this place was crawling with magic players.
I used to play with friends a little in middle and highschool, but was never competitive at all. We just had fun with deckbuilding before school started.
do people play the digital version more now, or the AFK version..
I sold that deck in 1997 for $2K in cash (it was the last of the Magic cards I got rid of). I'm sure it's worth a lot more now.
Suppose I could make a proxy deck to play with it again - but I haven't seen any game stores around anymore to play at.
I play modern red deck wins. Full foil with zendikar foil lands! And foil fetches and goblin guides ! :)
I have all the cheap stuff for (Candelabra-less) legacy High Tide. Next is fetches, forces, and flusterstorms..
If I'm playing I prefer paper, but if I'm not I'd rather hop on Twitch.tv and watch mtgo.
Thanks for the idea. I haven't done a ton of playtesting yet but I'm pretty happy with my list. Cloud Faerires/Snap can still get there even if it's a turn slower on average and doesn't play into artifact hate.
I like the ideas of decks (low interaction, reanimation, abusing bad cards, etc) more than them actually being competitive. :p
I still have a 0 cast creature deck with Cradles and Brain freeze I'm not allowed to play with my friends anymore lol. I still have most of my collection still. Everyone seems to only want new stuff. I also have old Yugioh cards.
Well, it wasn't easy collecting those zendikar foils. I have a crimp version of a zendikar foil mountain! :PI play modern red deck wins. Full foil with zendikar foil lands! And foil fetches and goblin guides ! :)
My quest for shiny things is not complete yet :( Wydwen is just over 50% foil at this point and high tide has foil zen islands plus a handful of foil cantrips.

Is glimpse of nature in there?

Yes and one Fastbond :)
Is second breakfast still a thing?

Second sunrise was banned in modern, and since then eggs has basically disappeared. The deck is significantly worse without second sunrise.

Hmm. Looks like I'm going to build it!
Casual play only though.

It takes forever to combo off, so keep that in mind.
Man, you guys are H-Core! I can't keep up with your MTG lingo :( I literally just started playing a month ago and am currently building a white-green deck. I also have Jeskai but haven't really used that one yet. I think I'm having more fun searching for loose cards and building my deck than actually playing!
I actually really want to try out this game. I've enjoyed playing some games that are sort of like super dumbed-down versions of magic and want to do the real thing
ooh, that's pretty cool. I'll have to try that out and play a little before I bug someone :pI actually really want to try out this game. I've enjoyed playing some games that are sort of like super dumbed-down versions of magic and want to do the real thing
Go to untap (http://www.untap.in/).
You can upload an mtg decklist there and play for free.
We can play together if you want.

If you are actually interested in learning I would very much so recommend picking up duals of the planeswalkers 2014 NOT 2015, apparently 2014 is much better. It is a game on steam and all the consoles which is really good for learning the basics of the game.
I love playing MTG, my brothers got me to start playing around the time M14 came out and I've been hooked ever since.
@Hwood I highly suggest playing DoTP 2014 on steam/ipad/whatever to get the basics and go here (http://locator.wizards.com/) to find a store where you can play. Right now there's a new set coming out called Fate reforged and stores usually have pre-release events a week before their official release (which would be this weekend) and these events are usually a great place to play no matter what skill level as you don't need any pre owned cards to play and people in the MTG community are really welcoming to newbies and everyone is usually there to just have fun and play with the new cards. You can read more about that here (http://magic.wizards.com/en/events/event-types/prerelease).
On the note on Fate reforged, is anyone else planning to go to a pre release? I haven't missed a pre release yet and this is no exception. Going to be choosing Temur as my clan and hopefully i'll crack some cards that will let me play it :D

Don't go to a prerelease without knowing the basic mechanics of the game. These are limited events meaning you will open packs and build a deck from what you receive and while they are very beginner friendly events since no one has played with the cards, it is still a disservice to you and everyone else to go in without any experience.
Unfortunately I will not be able to go to this prerelease :'( I've been on internship out in Indiana and this Friday is my last day so I'll be moving back up to school over the weekend.

I agree, I meant to add that in my comment - just forgot :-[. But I still highly suggest to find a store near you after getting a hold of the basics and buying some intro deck and ask random people to play with you/ teach you a few things since from experience people have no problem spending 20mins with a random newbies playing/teaching stuff about the game.
Ah that timing sucks, at least you still have game day to go to!
I'm likely going to prerelease. There seems to be a lot of cards which can bounce creatures to the hand. This would work well to bounce your creatures with bolster as well as manifested noncreature spells. Very draft oriented stuff going on here.

This limited format looks really complicated. There seems to be a ton of stuff going on, which in my opinion is pretty cool.

Mardu control was interesting when I used it in limited. However, I have no idea how FRF is going to play out.
I started with Alpha, stopped playing around Mirage, and stopped collecting at Stronghold. The rule changes that attempted to resolve the interrupts vs instants (IIRC) was kind of the last straw that ruined the game for me. Keeping up with expansions became a chore too. It seemed like the more the game evolved, the less fun it became. Those early years (Alpha through Ice Age) were some of the best gaming I ever had though. Before tight 60 card decks with cards limited to 4 copies, we could rarely trim our decks down to 120 cards. We took the kitchen sink approach to deck building. I wrote a letter (yes, on paper) to Richard Garfield about the arms race affecting the enjoyability of the game and he actually responded back to me -- something to the effect that playing for ante mitigates the arms race. No one played for ante. There was no way in hell we were going to risk losing our cards. Although, some people played a version of the rules in which they burned, or otherwise destroyed their cards when they went to the graveyard. I can't remember what that version was called. I'd be semi-rich if I held onto my cards. I once sold four moxes for $20 each. That was their market value at the time. But I stopped caring about selling my cards so early over a decade ago. No point in playing the "what if" game. I can only imagine the game now feels nothing like it did 20 years ago.This sounds kind of like what happened to Dungeons & Dragons. Advanced D&D 1ed was THE pinnacle of paper role-playing--the golden age, as I call it. Then came 2ed...ugh. The game has been flushing itself down the cistern ever since. I don't mind, though, because I've stuck with AD&D 1ed and love it! No need to fix something that isn't broken with a lot of feature creep. You just have to stick with the version that speaks to you and brings you the most satisfaction and fun at the end of the day. It's probably a bit more difficult with MTG because when a version is no longer in print variety becomes more scarce because you'll have to scrounge the used card bins in order to keep expanding your decks.

I didn't mind 2e. I quit playing at 2e, though I bought 3e, 3.5e, and 4e just to read the rules. 4e was the absolute lowest point in the history of the game. I heard 5e is an improvement though. Still, nothing ever felt like discovering 1e for the first time. Basic and Expert had a magical quality too. We ignored half the rules. We never used weapon speed modifiers or encumbrance. Carrying 1 million gold pieces out of a dungeon? No problem. As much as I loved AD&D, Shadowrun had better rules.
I have a question for all you MTG experts regarding the Spectra Ward card from M15. My opponent whom I was playing against insisted that the enchantment couldn't be negated by a destroy enchantment card. If that's the case doesn't this card basically make the enchanted creature impervious to anything? :eek:
(Attachment Link)

I don't know how much the rules have changed since I quit playing, but back in the day, a creature with an enchantment like that would still be vulnerable to damage from artifacts and lands.
Here's another question for you MTG gurus:
If I cast Azami, Lady of Scrolls and used her ability to tap Vedalken Anatomist, could I pay the 3 mana to activate Vedalken Anatomist's ability since, technically, it's being tapped? Or is that not legal since Vedalken Anatomist isn't being tapped of its own volition and simply as a result of another action?

No you cannot. Azami's ability requires a cost of tapping a wizard, and paying a cost does not allow a response (it doesn't go on the stack). Therefore with no response, you cannot activate the Veldaken's ability.
If I had all my old cards NOW (I probably would have sold them in the interim, but if I did..) I could pay off our house, get a new car, and still have money left over for a couple custom keyboards and a better audio setup ;)

I have way too much money invested in this game...
Hey, I have another one for you guys (won't be the last, I'm sure) ;D
In a recent game my opponent slams me with his entire creature army of non-flyers for his game-winning stroke. Before I declared blockers I played Stormtide Leviathan as a flash from my hand (due to Prophet of Kruphix's text "You may cast creature cards as though they had flash." My opponent and I argued over whether or not my big fish card's ability could negate his already-attacking army. In the end we deduced that my big fish card did indeed null his attack. I finally won the game by sending the big fish over to kill him my next turn.

So, what say you magical experts? :D

Anyone considering going into magic should be careful tho, it can make 'wallet hack' seem like a cheap date if you let it

I was a big fan of jeskai in khans limited. Just small efficient dudes and removal spells.

Keyboards are so much more friendly to my wallet than magic is. It's called cardboard crack for a reason :P

Geez, now you tell me! ;)
My friend tried to get me into MTG around '99 but for whatever reason I didn't see the appeal. I had previously played the Star Trek and Star Wars card games but didn't get super into them either. Then about 3 or 4 months ago my fake-nephew busts out his decks at one of our "game nights" and offered his green/white for me to try out--that was IT! It must have been the new mechanics, upgraded abilities, visual beauty, or something else that hooked me in this time. Now I live on the corner of Destitute and Welfare in a cardboard box hawking my last pair of jeans for a John Avon limited edition forest. :-\
I mean, why would you use a basically free mountain when you could be using one that costs $25!
That underground sea is only in 'pretty good' condition and its over $4k
That underground sea is only in 'pretty good' condition and its over $4k
It's always been the most pricey dual land... I only have the "fake beta" Underground Sea : I've got four "Foreign Black Borders" Underground Sea. They're worth today 100x what I paid them for nearly twenty years ago :)
(I've got about 30 dual-lands, all FBBs)
Prices for these never ever seems to go down. It's insane.
back when I had my stuff stolen in 98 I had a full set of 40 black border dual lands.. could pay off my mortgage! :'(

Prices for these never ever seems to go down. It's insane. I probably already said it but my MTG cards are in a safe at the bank. I've got several K's of dual lands and a few other niceties (Bazaar of Baghdad, The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale, Force of Will, etc.). I probably also have a few things worth some money to collectors, like the first japanese Serra Angel, but totally miscut. I've got binders full of cards in a garage: one day I should try to find someone in my city who knows all the cards and have him have a look at my cards to see which one are worth keeping... A big problem I've got is that I've a ****load of cards in japanese, thousands of them, and I don't speak japanese and can't tell from the drawing which card it is :D
I still recognized a few things like Lion Eye's Diamond, Natural Order, etc. So I know I've got a few niceties but I just can't sort all that mess: there are just too many cards ???
Hehe had 8 Force of will, 4 of each blue dual land (unlimited), 4 mana drain, 4 (BB) Ball lightning, a beta Demonic tutor and a overall killer Oath deck. Sold it to get money for a mortgage loan
Did sting at the time but didnt really enjoy playing the lame Oath style even if I almost never lost. Still got my Tinker deck even if its rekt by restrictions and the movement in the extended format. Still cant believe it was ever legal

I miss old school magic.. but my favorite thing to do was drafting anyway
Yes to all of your questions.
Spellshift stops milling when you find either an instant or a sorcery.
Mystical Tutor and Personal Tutor are the first cards that come to mind, which put the desired card types on top of your deck. You can also use things like ponder, brainstorm, preordain, and friends to manipulate the card you want to the top of your deck as well.
So, did anyone go to midnight release? I got the promo price for a booster/fat pack. Spending tomorrow opening/sorting.

Nice! I was gonna go to a pre-release last week, then got caught up at work and was too tired to go. Midnight release last night was a purchase and leave because of how sick I was...didn't want to infect anybody at the store with w/e the hell it is I have.So, did anyone go to midnight release?

Honestly, it's not that exciting of a set. I do like the dual-sided planeswalkers though, and there are a good handful of white cards that are more than playable in this set. (Makes me happy since I play white/blue against friends. Don't play at stores unless it's sealed)
Opened up my box and fat pack. Box yielded enough great pulls to pay for both if I were to sell them. 2 planeswalkers (Nissa/ Jace), and a total of 6 mythics from the box as well as 1 foil rare, and the fat pack didn't really have anything.

Very nice.
I definitely recommend drafting some origins if you're into limited. The format is pretty solid.
Today for me however is a legacy tournament. Here's hoping all goes well! :D
This is kinda random, but I have a ton of magic the gathering stuff I'm not using anymore. I'll get around to posting pictures at some point.
However I have a bunch of empty fatpack/booster boxes/deck boxes/sleeves (some people like specific ones). I also have a ton of cards, especially older ones since I played mostly in EDH/commander and traded. I don't have any cards past Khans, since that's basically when I quit so, sorry standard players :P
If you have like a list of cards you're after let me know and I'll see if I have any. I would just ask for you to cover the shipping costs.

I presented the following query to my local FB MTG group and received conflicting results. I will now put my trust in a more reliable source: you, the GH MTG community.
My question is this:
If I enchant Whipkeeper with Veteran's Voice will the enchantment's tapping ability activate along with Whipkeeper's, thus giving the dwarf damage-dealing as well as distribution of +2/+1 to another creature? The way in which the enchantment is worded confuses me: The cost is 0 but the effect seems to be divided into cost: effect, as well.

The way in which the enchantment is worded confuses me: The cost is 0 but the effect seems to be divided into cost: effect, as well.
http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=3189
So the trick is to look up the card on gatherer for the correct wording.
The enchantment gives an ability that requires the creature to tap, ignore the 0 mana cost written on the card. It just requires tapping the dude as the cost.
Yup, I like to play Legacy and Vintage when possible. I've been playing the combo Lands deck lately. I'm hoping to make it to Eternal Weekend next month.
So, did anyone go to midnight release? I got the promo price for a booster/fat pack. Spending tomorrow opening/sorting.
Yup I did 2 prereleases last weekend :D
Went 3/1 at both. The first on UWR small dudes, and the second on UBW flyers.
Nice! I was gonna go to a pre-release last week, then got caught up at work and was too tired to go. Midnight release last night was a purchase and leave because of how sick I was...didn't want to infect anybody at the store with w/e the hell it is I have.So, did anyone go to midnight release?

Lemme know how the set is, think ll grab a fat pack in a few days.
Honestly, it's not that exciting of a set. I do like the dual-sided planeswalkers though, and there are a good handful of white cards that are more than playable in this set. (Makes me happy since I play white/blue against friends. Don't play at stores unless it's sealed)
My girlfriend pulled a dual-sided Liliana from her black prerelease pack. I drooled on it a little :p I, myself, am enjoying the new thopter-support cards. I love me some artifacts!
Sweet, I definitely will.
I might be able to loan you Dredge w/ Bazaars for Sunday... depends on who comes with me.
I am planning to play Stax. Maybe an aggro variant, or maybe 5C.

So, I've had some singles rolling in this last week for my Dragon EDH tribal deck. I'm excited for the rest of them to get here so I can finally play it.

playsets of forces & fetches away from finishing UB Reanimator
playsets of fetches & Argothians and a couple Serra's Sanctums away from finishing Enchantress
very far away from finishing The Gate, but I like the disruption package
Legacy feels more expensive than geekhack :/

Anyone picking up Battle for Zendikar stuff tomorrow(or today)? I am much excite
I'm trying to pick up a bunch of the expedition full art lands, but aside from that there really isn't much in the set that I'm interested in.

the new gideon is pretty nasty. i want the new ob nix for my mono-black edh deck.

I want all the relevant expeditions for my Zur edh list. My entire mana base minus the ABU duals will be full art foil, and it will be amazing.
I need:
All the fetches except wooded foothills, watery grave, hallowed fountain, and the new UB and UW lands.
It's going to be rough.

U full art foils are so nasty expensive and handsome. that's an admirable endgame you have going on there
but for real, i'll be drafting foil islands first pick with absolutely no hesitation unless there's $10+ value in my rare slot
(Attachment Link) - When Spitebellows leaves the battlefield, if deals 6 damage to target creature. Would bouncing Spitebellows to my hand with Void Snare satisfy the action of leaves the battlefield and thereby dealing 6 damage to target creature? (Attachment Link)

This does work the way you want it to. Enjoy.
I still haven't opened any BFZ.
I still haven't opened any BFZ.
TBH, if you don't want the full art lands, it's not really a set worth opening. There's not much value, and the only card really worth using is Gideon or Ob. I really wasn't opening it for the expeditions, but now that I have them, I'm gambling further with the set.
That underground sea is only in 'pretty good' condition and its over $4k
It's always been the most pricey dual land... I only have the "fake beta" Underground Sea : I've got four "Foreign Black Borders" Underground Sea. They're worth today 100x what I paid them for nearly twenty years ago :)
(I've got about 30 dual-lands, all FBBs)
Prices for these never ever seems to go down. It's insane. I probably already said it but my MTG cards are in a safe at the bank. I've got several K's of dual lands and a few other niceties (Bazaar of Baghdad, The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale, Force of Will, etc.). I probably also have a few things worth some money to collectors, like the first japanese Serra Angel, but totally miscut. I've got binders full of cards in a garage: one day I should try to find someone in my city who knows all the cards and have him have a look at my cards to see which one are worth keeping... A big problem I've got is that I've a ****load of cards in japanese, thousands of them, and I don't speak japanese and can't tell from the drawing which card it is :D
I still recognized a few things like Lion Eye's Diamond, Natural Order, etc. So I know I've got a few niceties but I just can't sort all that mess: there are just too many cards ???
Where are you located, I want to gawk at your nice things :p
Wow Skuloth, just saw your EDH deck in the subreddit, and damn. I'm jelly

Haven't played in years but it's so cool that it is still popular. I started in high school just before Antiquities was released and sold most of my cards before going to college (the expansion after Ice Age had just came out or was about to come out). At the time, I got about $2k for my collection which included the Power 9 (all Unlimited except Time Walk (beta) and Timetwister (alpha)), full Revised set, full expansions from Arabian Nights to The Dark, and most of the rest of the expansions.
I don't even want to think about how much those cards would be worth now. The Sony VAIO PCV-90 that I bought with the money served me well back then so...Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/wlf4aG8.jpg)
The only formats I play currently are legacy and edh.
I'm playing the epic storm in legacy and Ad Nauseam Zur in edh.

I have a couple super competitive storm decks, and have had good luck in MTGO tourneys (winning a few) but man TES is a glass cannon, Ive had people mulligan against me down to 4 looking for FoW and then he ended up winning. As long as you dont run headfirst into a counter storm is very powerfull. Currently running re-animator (gristlebrand owns) which ive had way more luck with.

Hi guys (& gals).
If a non-artifact creature is turned into an artifact until the end of turn and then is put into a graveyard from play, would said creature continue to be an artifact while in the graveyard and beyond?
My query concerns these 2 cards: Liquimetal Coating and Conversion Chamber. (Attachment Link) (Attachment Link)
See where I'm going with this? I'm not sure if it's entirely legal to qualify the newly-turned artifact creature residing in the graveyard as fodder for the Conversion Chamber.
I will give you some time to discuss...
I bought two started decks. I'm just trying to get people to play me though, which is hard when you're 27.
Been thinking about getting into this...
But the prices... RIP
I would have to liquidate some Keyboard stuff to just get started.

I'm seriously thinking about selling all my cards that are worth selling off. I've notice a lot of lands going up in price. I've sold some stuff on ebay before but man what a cut they take, but world wide bidding has its costs I'm sure.
I actually really want to try out this game. I've enjoyed playing some games that are sort of like super dumbed-down versions of magic and want to do the real thing

WTF? How is no one on GH playing MTGO?
So, the wife and I have both recently gotten into MTG. So we purchased a pair of dueling decks from Fate Reforged. The Power and Profit decks. Last night, I had the chance to play a game with both, and I really want to mix and match some cards to make a deck. So the question comes in, I want to purchase another set like this for the wife, but have no idea where to start looking, or what colors/decks would compliment how she wants to play.
Any suggestions?

need more info regarding playstyle.
blue = counter spells, deck manipulation, being a jerk
black = kill stuff, graveyard manipulation, make people discard
white = lifegain, protection, defense, a bunch of small dudes
green = big dudes, buff other dudes, dudes that make mana, ramp spells (spells that accelerate putting out lands)
red = burn (direct damage to creature, player, plansewalker, etc), aggressive dudes (haste,menace,etc)
that's just the gist. it all changes depending on the format you want to play unless format is ignored. then it still varies.
if you're looking for another pair of decks that can be combined, i would look for clash packs. last one was armed and dangerous. if you're looking for duel decks, i'd suggest the most recent one (blessed vs cursed) or any with planeswalkers. duel decks weren't made to be combined, so it's really up to what kind of experience you're looking for.

Thanks, it was the clash decks that I was looking for. Looks like they only did 3 sets of those, Fate & Fury, Power & Profit, and Armed & Dangerous. I think we will end up picking up the other two sets, I found the Fate & Fury for $17 on amazon, but Armed & Dangerous was $35. The wife said she likes the idea of a ramp up style but doesn't want to be a ****.

tell her ramp decks aren't as ****ish as countering spells and not letting your opponent play magic. blue can counter ramp spells how rude is that
blue has historically been the strongest color and no one pure of heart plays that color. that's why i play blue decks all the time real talk

i dunno. for a 2 drop that doesn't work on summoning sick dudes, this card is strictly worse than heritage druid. heritage druid is such an mvp
I just found out about ancestral visions and ghostly prism shooting up in price. What is this madness? It's like every time I turn around some card that I have that was worth 2-3$ is now worth a small stack.
Not sure what to do post SOI. I know it's gonna be a lot of deck experimentation for the next week, but I guess I'll have to watch the tourney decklists for a while to see what's doing well.
So I a moddifying me deck from the Armed and Dangerous Clash deck. I am currently using the Dangerous side of the deck with a couple additions from the Armed side. This deck is built on the Outlast and Bolster mechanics. There are also a number of creature cards that add deathtouch, lifelink, flying, reach, and such to all cards with +1/+1 counters. So this deck gets fairly powerful later game if you can survive long enough and keep creatures out. I was talking with one of the guys that I play with last night and he suggested some tweaks to my deck.
This is what he suggested.
Dropping Disowned Ancestor (http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=386521)x2 for Mer-Ek Nightblade (http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=386603)x2
Dropping Ultimate Price (http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=394735)x2 for Abzan Battle Priest (http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=386466)x2
Dropping Enshrouding Mist (http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=398654)x2 for Elite Scaleguard (http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=391826)x2
Dropping Outland Colossus (http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=398668) I added this one from a different deck because 6/6 with Renown 6, for Longshot Squad (http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=386588)
Dropping Suspension Field (http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=386682) for Citadel Siege (http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=391809)
Dropping Ancestral Vengeance (http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=391790) for Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit (http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=394490)
And the last one that I am not sure I agree with is dropping Abzan Ascendancy (http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=386464) for Avatar of the Resolute (http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=394503). This one I think I would like to keep both. The adding a counter to every creature I control seems very nice for spreading out lifelink, deathtouch, reach and such very quickly early game.
I also did some looking and am thinking about adding some of these cards to my deck. With the mechanics of outlast, each time requires one to tap that creature and spend mana. So I started looking for cards that would allow me more opportunities to untap lands and creatures.
They include the following not going to post links due to time right now
Ivory Tusk Fortress
Awakening
Mobilize
To Arms!
Bear Umbra
Early Harvest
Natures Will

Had an out of nowhere wild itch to open a bunch of MTG cards this morning, so I just ordered 40 packs from 20 sets for no other reason than to open then all up :))
The new Un set? Or Ixlian?

Top pulls from an Ixalan bundle I opened tonight. These basically paid for the box, add the other rares and some good dollar uncommons and I came out on top by about $12 :thumb:

Unstable looks so good! I saw a three pack in Walmart today, even though release is Friday. Couldn’t help myself and so glad I grabbed them!
These were just from two packs, the other had a common foil.Show Image(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171206/8ea9e257c694642656b54a0951b3b651.jpg)Show Image(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171206/3da599bb7813260f10d69c74eaec5dfc.jpg)Show Image(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171206/7c44ee49da65bd37a6d2233cfd2b94d9.jpg)

May need to buy a box of these to play some hilarious games!

So apparently there are God Boxes of Unstable, like one in a hundred booster boxes will have 1 foil land in every pack :eek:I wonder if Unstable pricing will ever... stabilize.

Just opened $100 worth of vintage booster packs and the total card worth was just over $15. I think I'm done with vintage packs forever , that was a huge knock. :'(
I'll be participating in my local Dominaria pre-release this weekend. Wish me luck :thumb:How did it go?
It was a good turnout. I ended up winning two matches and losing two matches, which let me take home 4 additional boosters. :p Everyone I played against was polite and friendly and a couple of them even helped me keep track of my triggers lol which is something I've always had trouble with. I tend to build decks with lots of abilities, tapping, counters, etc.I'll be participating in my local Dominaria pre-release this weekend. Wish me luck :thumb:How did it go?
Just opened 15 packs of Dominaria - 0 Mythics. I am ****ing livid.

Fight has both creatures deal damage equal to their power to one another.It looks like both spells have the two creatures deal damage to each other. Rabid Bite explicitly says so. That would mean deathtouch is a useless mechanic against a creature with indestructible, in this case.
So with prey upon your creature can die, with Rabid Bite it cannot.
When casting Rabid Bite only your creature does damage, it doesn't get hurt. Prey Upon both creatures do damage to each other (it's designed to trigger Enrage effects)Thanks. That makes sense, now.
Indestructable is a separate issue and damage and/or deathtouch will not remove the 2/2 Indestructable creature, you need to reduce it's toughness to zero or less using a 'creature gets -2/-2 until end of turn' style spell/effect.

Modern Horizons is a sweet set. Great cards, and the return of Slivers! Too bad it's print-to-demand though.What do you mean by print-to-demand? Do you mean how the tears of the Modern fans influence what WotC reprints? :rolleyes:
