Opened my Russian box of Innistrad, pretty underwhelming. At least I pulled a Garruk on the last pack.No Liliana Just 4 Mythics total (Essence of Wild, Geist of Saint Traft, Grimoire of the Dead, and Garruk) multiples of junk rares. Not even a single Ghost Quarter haha

opened my a free Inn box from judging.Pretty bad box. Best mythic was Past in Flames (other 3 were Olivia, Demon and Tree) foil rare was The Doll and Endless Ranks of the Dead (which is very pretty). 3 dual land (ones SCG has in stock so not the in demand ones) which was the highlight. no Gurruk or Liliana or Snapcaster. Decent uncommons 2 Ghost Quaters and, foil Invisible Stalker. Oh well, it was "free" and some of the rares are creeping up in value so I go that, but not feeling whole lot of value in the set yet, but its still early.

Because it is really good? It's one of the main reasons how Goblins can actually disrupt opponent's game plan in Legacy.

Death and Taxes and Lands usually play 4. Not Top tier, but decent decks.

I'm so excited to be able to splash black in goblins again. Next Saturday will be the first time I brushed the dust off of my Badlands for months!

Combo: Cabal Therapy Reanimator: Faerie Macabre, Tormod's Crypt, Warren Wierding I must say, as much as I enjoy the black splash, my Mono red list w/ misstep had better MU's vs combo and reanimator, seeing as I was able to play Chalice of the Void for 1 on turn 1 because of Chrome Mox. Oh well, give and take. At worst, I'll add in Thoughtseize to the SB as well.

You may exchange refs with both of them. Just mark the type of trade as "Other" and note 3rd Party in the comments. __________________ There's no need to fear, UNDERDOG is here!All your Gruul Nodorogs are belong to me. Trade them to me, please! Report rules violations. Remember the Auctions Board!

I have found Innistrad to be very enjoyable to draft.

Seconding this, good limited set so far. It's even got me thinking of modifying my Peasant Cube, something I haven't tinkered with in a while.

I seem to lose more to rares then anything else in this format. I know there have been bombs like titans and such running around, but it seems like most any of the playable rares are stealing games in this format.

I have not got a lot of draft/sealed, and this is not a rare, but I got beat down by an Angelic Overseer, with humans, on curve 2 games in a match. Losing to bombs is not fun, but something that is hexproof and indestructable is almost impossible to deal with I played a strange guy at our release. He would hardly talk or even look at me and seemed to get easily flustered over the smallest things. At one point I asked him how many cards in hand. He replied 2 and I made some sort of comment about him holding lands because we were at a point where we could play anything we wanted. I dont think he understood that I was just making a comment and thought I was asking an actual question because he freaked out and told me that there was now way he was going to tell me what he had in his hand. He then spent the remainder of my turn looking at me like I was stupid. Later on it was turn 4 of overtime and he was just sitting there looking at the board and back at his hand over and over again so I said draw since we would not be able to finish. He looked up at me again like I was stupid and said no he already did. He continued to look at his cards and the board for a bit longer and just passed the turn.

There was one in Indianapolis if I remember correctly. Also, we have 3 Charbelcher at the local Legacy weekly, so my guess would be yes

I occasionally run into it locally. Its strength is its potentially explosive first turn; its weakness is still that it loses to decent blue players. It's largely fallen off the radar, though, so most players aren't really prepared for Empty the Warrens.

I can confirm that there are. Last year when Nderwife and I were there we hit an FNM. The Wizards locator should pick up a few, though I can't really tell you which one would be the best one to go to. __________________ There's no need to fear, UNDERDOG is here!All your Gruul Nodorogs are belong to me.

All right, time for a last week scramble for a new standard deck. After testing pod heavily for the last two weeks, I just can't seem to find a version of the deck that works. The lack of ways to reliably find pod without also adding too many non-creatures to the deck is just killing me. __________________ Wisconsin - smells like dairy air!I collect Granite Gargoyles.
