Yes, that`s my only problem with Innistrad: too many weak mythics. Essence of the Wild Balefire Dragon Angelic Overseer Army of the D***** Grimgrin, Corpse-Born However, Snapcaster Mage and the enemy duals almost make up for it (in my opinion).

Primal Hunter might not be the best fit in a deck that runs white mana-accel as well as the normal stuff. However, there could be a place for Avacyn's Pilgrim, although I think Bird's of Paradise is a better accelerator. Other cards that have been revealed lately that might be interesting...

Essence of the Wild = another expensive weak mythic for standard. Morkrut Banshee = limited bomb. Into the Maw of (probably shouldn't use this word on Pokebeach... just in case) = weak rare. Destroying a land and a creature at a rare slot should not cost six mana. Skaab Ruinator =...

Phantasy Magic just seems kinda cheesy. This isn't football, this isn't baseball, this is just a card game. As for Pro Tour Philly, well, I find it kinda sad that Splinter Twin, which isn't consistent enough to be successful in Standard, won this tournament in Modern, with a much bigger format...

R/G Werewolves and B/R Vampires both look like they will be viable decks. The White Weenie deck with Fiend Hunter, Elite Inquisitor, Mirran Crusader, Hero of Bladehold, etc looks great. Possibly Mentor of the Meek too. Fiend Hunter will probably be a nice dollar or so uncommon, and taken highly...

RE: Murder VIII - Rescue Mission (Day 4 Ends September 6th!) OOC: Porygon, just wanted to let you know I'll be going away for the long weekend, so I won't be posting for most of this game day. Item: A: A2 Vote: Hypnotic Luxray IC: "Hmm. The Phantom said that he killed Hypnotic Luxray because...

Ok, Garruk's awesome, and so is the art. However, as you said, it will be hard to transform him, and when you do he'll be very fragile. I don't know if there's enough small creatures being played for Garruk to be great. I guess you could make a Wolf token, and then deals 3 damage to it, then put...

Kaalia whirled around, too late to stop the Nuzleaf's, then saw Blade repelling them. "Thanks!" She yelled, and then pulled out her staff. She barked out a word and a thick branch above the Nuzleaf's snapped off, and then fell towards them.

Yeah, I read the articles - loved the "interview" with Stormkirk Noble. I looked at Rooftop Storm, but I don't think it's needed. It's a win-more card, unless I cut the Ghouls and turn the deck into a more controlling type. However, in that case, there'll be less Zombies to cast for free...

OOC: This is kinda getting monotonous - I hope you have some sort of plot that will take place soon. IC: Kaalia took a deep breath and fired a flamethrower at the group of Nuzleaf's, then jumped up to a higher branch on a tree about 30 feet off the ground. She pulled out her bow and started...

A couple things to keep in mind: 1) We won't have Inquisition or Duress once Innistrad comes out. 2) Keep in mind that the Reaper's ability is mandatory, so if an opponent has no legal targets for the Reaper's ability, you may have to destroy one of your own creatures.

Sorry for the double post but - - - Liliana of the Veil has been revealed! I was wrong on a few counts - she's not 4 mana, and she doesn't have 5 loyalty abilities - but she still seems pretty good. Well. At first I was underwhelmed, and then I remembered that it only cost 3 mana. That said...

Kaalia groaned, and the hay slowly disappeared. She spat some of the remaining hay out of her mouth and then staggered to her feet, glad that the Audino had put up their shields. "Stupid... bears..." She muttered.

Liliana was already confirmed, and most people suspected Garruk. Also, Maro revealed that one of the Planeswalker's in the set will have 5 loyalty abilities. 5! I'm suspecting Liliana. I hope they make it a four mana card, because they probably won't make another five, a three mana one would be...

RE: The Region *Into the Temple/Attack of the Fish-Man!* Wes glared around at the people in the helicopter. He swore at them once, before falling back into unconsciousness. When Wes woke back up he looked around, and then sat up in the stretcher/bed. "That was a cruel trick," he muttered.

Kaalia was grateful for the stone pillars, but they would only hold for so long. Kaalia reached the wooden shack at the top of the tree, and grabbed the three Audino. Her hands no longer free, she looked down at the ground, hesitating. She spat out some words, hoping she would be able to channel...

Okay, Juliacoolo got back to me, and we can post decklists as long as they are in spoilers tags. Here are my thoughts on some of the cards I haven't already mentioned: Boneyard Wurm - This could be the Tarmogoyf of the set - and it's uncommon! Having Memory Adept and some other cards milling...

I think Vampires might be good enough, along with the Zendikar support, to be a Tier 2 deck in Modern. Stiched Drake looks really good, as in, constructed playable (possibly in the Mono Blue Phanatasmal deck?). I don't know about you, but I've already started a Zombie tribal deck. This is my...

RE: Murder VIII - Rescue Mission (Day 3 Ends August 28th, 8PM EST!) I don't see any reason for TDL to pretend to be the murderer. What does he gain from it? Maybe he made a pact with the murderer to gain an extra night? I kind of doubt that, but I suppose it's a possibility.

Kaalia swore. "Destructive little *inappropriate word for this forum*!" She sprinted over to Barry and pulled out her staff. "Don't move!" She barked and a glow lit up the top of her staff. Within seconds, almost half of Barry's health had been restored. She jumped out of the way of a stray...
