This was my first block draft so far. In the past I've done NPH x3 twice, and NPH NPH MBS. This format doesn't compare. It'll certainly take a bit to get used to the block, but I think it will be fun learning. I went 3-0 on an 8 man with grixis. My red was a splash with burn the impure, oxidia scrapper, and the infect pinger in NPH and I did fairly well despite being 3 color. I guess the karn did help in one match up, but that was only because it destroyed his bomb that made tokens based on my infect counters (before it made any). It was fun in the second round as well when my opponent didn't know I had it cause my first round opponent didn't say anything.I've got a lot to learn about this format. It should prove to be some fun.

If they wanted to get rid of dredge, they would have banned Bridge from Below not Golgari-grave Troll. So idk.

salvation noooo on the mothership forumsSpecifically this post:

You have to see the page and cards in question to get an idea of how truly stupid this is.

Chuck Norris can continue to beat a dead horse. The items will likely get pulled down by Ebay for listing violations __________________ Member Since 03/28/2001 10000+ posts 3rd in posts in Ontario 15th in posts on MOTL Top 5 in Refs in Ontario (by people who location posted)

And get pulled down for not being funny in any way >.>The grammar on the Fox one is atrocious, wth. edit: a lawsuit for a few dollars isn't going to happen, unless the people making these refuse to stop making/selling them and it becomes a big thing.

I know, which is why I said almost. I saw the decks, did a double-take, and then clicked on the Top8 profiles.

Its star city games, they'd try to put a price on anything. can you imagine if basic lands cost $1.00? I'd quit magic right then and there.
