thror Member	posted September 12, 2012 08:48 PM quote: Originally posted by Absurd90: Some cards like hymn and therapy have promo versions of them on MTGO, are those tournament playable? Im asking mainly because they are 4x cheaper than non-foil versions.. For mtgo, if it's tradeable it's playable. the only ones that arent mtgo tourney legal are gold bordered and cannot be traded. __________________ "He fights you not because you have wronged him, but because you are there."

pugowar Member	posted September 14, 2012 01:44 PM SO may be hitting my first m13 draft. Anyone able to give me some advice? What are the snap first picks? What are some ideas on deck direction? What should I be aware of? (is there much removal/counter? etc? Thanks so much guys! Tim
airwalk Member	posted September 14, 2012 06:00 PM I won my last M13 draft with B/W Exalted/Fliers. Strong removal in the form of Murder and Pacifism and lots of good dudes.
psrex Member	posted September 14, 2012 06:50 PM G/B or G/R can be really good as well. Make sure to get a lot of removal and value exalted highly. The 1G wolf that gets stronger with more of the same guy is better than you might think.
stab107 Member	posted September 14, 2012 09:57 PM Archaeomancer is a lot better than people think. In the right control deck being able to get back key removal spells (or Talrand's Invocation) is insane.

In the right control deck being able to get back key removal spells (or Talrand's Invocation) is insane. or drafting 5 mind sculpts and 3 archaeomancers + 32 other cards and just 3-0ing yeah, i did that like 3 times already. (although i will say unsummon + red removal spells do help keep the game going long enough to win via mill, but seriously, if no one is drafting the mind sculpts, you can just win a draft out of nowhere) [Edited 1 times, lastly by dfitzg88 on September 14, 2012]

The 1G wolf that gets stronger with more of the same guy is better than you might think. I disagree. The 1G wolf is terrible. I've never seen it make an impact.

Why did it end so low? Does not make sense in the least.. i don't see any spelling mistakes which would cause this. __________________ Member Since 03/28/2001 12000+ posts 1st in posts in Ontario 2nd in posts in Canada 10th in posts on MOTL 5th in Refs in Ontario Pushing to get to top 100 in MOTL Refs
Goaswerfraiejen Member	posted September 17, 2012 11:09 AM Whew. Finally finished the update of my pet-deck's primer (see sig). Took a while; it'd been about a year since the last update, and so much has changed since then. Also updated my HW list, which was stagnating. Whee! __________________ "I have heard the mermaids singing, each to each. I do not think they will sing to me." -T.S. Eliot RIP Ari Legacy UGB River Rock primer. PM comments/questions.

gaeacradle Member	posted September 17, 2012 10:07 PM LOL. I just had someone told me that ended auctions on Ebay is not an accurate guide for the worth of something. Instead, he points to whatever some of the BIN auctions are. Oh...and this is after he wants to use MOTL as a price guide.

WeedIan Member	posted September 18, 2012 07:07 PM I use everything just to be sure, sometimes i can buy something that i can trade for value because its cheap cash and then high SCG price.

If he does want signed cards, he's got a lot of learning to do.

If he does want signed cards, he's got a lot of learning to do. Even if he does't want signed cards he's got a lot of learning to do. If I was the owner of that Juzam I'd certainly not consider a lower value than NM price unless I was in a hurry to unload it. There are people out there who do not consider signed stuff to be any lower in value, it's just a matter of finding someone like that who wants it.
stu55 Member	posted September 19, 2012 05:54 PM Its just the idea of it being "SP" when the card condition is not...
Lord Crovax Member	posted September 19, 2012 05:58 PM quote: Originally posted by stu55: Its just the idea of it being "SP" when the card condition is not... Not that I agree with the assessment, but I've seen prominent dealers treat signed cards in the same way, they treat the signature as being damage to the card. Granted I also treated said dealers as people trying to make extra money on something they hope the owner isn't aware of. __________________ I shall have the souls of all who defy me. "Lord Crovax"
revenger Member	posted September 19, 2012 06:35 PM I think I did a tactical misjudgment. I traded away all of my rav shocklands, and now I am finding it very difficult to even trade for 1! I think I am gonna have to freaking buy each one singlewise. Blah...I hope that dual I got was worth it. ~Revenger __________________ Motl member since November 1, 2000 Your 2008 & 2010 Siskel & Ebert award winner! 33rd in refs on Motl! #1 Ref's for Arizona!

People are selling them like idiots thinking they'll drop to $5 each or less. __________________ Member Since 03/28/2001 12000+ posts 1st in posts in Ontario 2nd in posts in Canada 10th in posts on MOTL 5th in Refs in Ontario Pushing to get to top 100 in MOTL Refs
