well if the card is sold out at a said price, obviously it just went up. I hate when n00bs makes offers with SCG prices of newly hot-high-seeked cards that are sold out (right -_-) at a ridiculously low price.

Yeah. I just thought that it would be common sense so I didn't clarify my statement to "lowest price with at least 1 quantity available"

Would like to double check forum rules for the TA&S forum, is there a limit to the replies in a day to a thread?

I love prerelease weekends on MTGO. Its literally the ONLY time you can just post a buy/sell list and turn $20 into $120 in a few hours.On a non-prerelease related note, picked up a foil Library of Alexandria for 24 so I'm pretty damn happy about that piece of luck. Only about seven more foils left to completely foil out my deck! Edit: 10 more foils to finish it off. Soon enough!
1x Scrubland
3x Windswept Heath
4x Pernicious Deed
1x Primeval Titan
1x Maze of Ith

I hate people who don't understand how Apathyhouse gets their prices and pricing in general.

Random question for all the tournament players; do you guys change sleeves every tournament, and is it because of marking fears?

I don't change sleeves every tournament. The sleeves I have are extremely durable and don't show wear very well at all.I do keep a supply of fresh sleeves with me, though, in case one gets bent and could be considered "marked".

I only completely resleeve a deck if it's for a major tourney (PTQ, SCG:O, etc) or if a majority of the sleeves are worn out. That said, I do keep spare sleeves on me in case a sleeve breaks during play.__________________

UW control. It was a great choice in a field full of Mono Red, Elves and random aggro decks. Had to beat Faeries in the finals which is by far my worst matchup, but got there thanks to some tricky sideboarding and fortunate misplays on my opponent's part. Second year in a row I Q for the block constructed PT. This should be an interesting one, it just sucks that I have to wait til the third set in the block is released before I can begin testing =/

Pretty much this. Ill use the same sleeves for about 2 months at FNM, but anything bigger and they get a new set and I make sure to bring another set just in case. __________________

If you check out the rules it specifically says you may only "up" your thread once per day. And it won't let you post if you already have recently (on that same thread) ----- Making a cube, and finally finished going through all my cards and picking out what i MIGHT want to go in. But what i'm wondering is do any of you consider certain cards unfair?
I might put in things like Anarchy and Boil and Flashfires, Cleanse, etc. Do these seem too strong? Outside of playing multicolor/nonbasics no one really has answer to that other than a counterspell. So it just seems like a cheap win. Big difference between a strong efficient creature and "destroy target manabase".
That said i'm just trying to build around the idea that if you go mono you're probably going be lacking. And i don't have a playgroup to ask the opinions of yet.

I do not put those cards in my cube, but my cube has so many multicolored lands there is almost no reason to play mono __________________

Yea, like i said i'm trying to make multicolor more accessible so i'm not sure the grand total of 8 or 9 of those kinds of board wipes are going to make a huuuge difference. Just want to avoid something too unfair. It's actually starting to not sound very fun at all though, and so specific it would probably only ever be sideboard material anyhow. Hmmm. I'll try without, first.Are there any common cards that are pretty fun in cube? Not common the rarity, but something i might have with only the information that my collection is pretty poor and simple. I've got almost everything from visions/4th/5th/homelands/alliances. Lots of ravnica, mirrodin, time spiral, onslaught, zendikar blocks. Decent amounts of other things too.
I've added as many as superpowered cards as possible, p9 included, and some late threats like Iona, Akroma, Ob Nixilis, Hellkite Overlord. Put in a decent amount of cards that make their own dudes for card advantage like thallids, Pawn of Ulamog, Goblin Warrens, Quirion Druid.

In my cube, the only real color hosers I have are the Circle of Protections and guys with protection from X. That said, my cube isn't meant to really support mono decks, and chances are they won't be as big a blowout as you might think, unless you have a really big cube (like mine is 360 cards total).

Played Kuldotha Red at FNM. I won this one game after mulling to 3 and keeping a no-lander. I drew my first land on turn 4 and burned him out turn 8. That was crazy.

Yea, that's another thing i'm working on is finding tons of protection dudes to help the whole multicolor idea. I didn't add CoPs but i put in Story Circle. Anyone ever consider adding in fake cards (ones you invent yourself) to cube? I plan on trying it eevntually.

Split second
If Sovarius is playing in this game, every other player sacrifices all permanents he or she controls, discards his or her hand, and removes all but one card from his or her library from the game. Then, Sovarius Wins deals 20 damage to each of those players.

Haha, well no. I'd make them balanced. I'm thinking of starting by 'finishing cycles'. I want to make blue/green/red crusaders to go with the new Phyrexian/Mirran ones. They'd be out of flavor since there's only two factions, but whatever.

The only box that I can guarentee would hold it, would be a fat pack box. But that may be too big for your liking...
