Pail42 Member	posted April 10, 2014 03:46 PM quote: Originally posted by jbark: But it doesn't read "your mana pool doesn't empty" that's what's confusing me. Is there a rule change that colorless manager doesn't empty at end of turn? It's a replacement effect for "unused mana". Unused colored mana becomes colorless and stays. Unused colorless mana also becomes colorless and stays.
jbark Member	posted April 10, 2014 04:30 PM Got it now. I guess I missed that lol. Just seemed dumb to turn colored mana to colorless and then watch it empty.
jbark Member	posted April 11, 2014 02:47 AM New city of brass. Seems excessive now but once shock lands go it may be necessary.

It is slightly better then brass since brass triggered any time it was tapped so if an opponent tapped it you would lose one life

It's not better. Just different. IDK perhaps it is better. I just don't recall losing any games due to my opponent tapping my COB. Then again my example of winning is pretty narrow.

harbingerofthevoid Member	posted April 11, 2014 01:03 PM Now my knowledge of anything Standard is less than low so... With Kruphix and Dictate of Karametra coming in, is there any room for a psuedo heartbeat combo coming back? Aurelia's Fury, Clan Defiance and Rakdos's Return are the only X damage spells I know of. UGWrb was basically the colors of most heartbeat decks so some counters, removal and sweepers, drop the god and tap out EO your opponents turn. Float mana etc... the new 5 color land smooths it out for the splash of your preferred kill card. There's no Early Harvest but Kruphix ability replaces that. Since the god says instead and not doesn't empty, that does mean that if he leaves play, the colorless mana you have already floated before he leaves, is still there, correct? damn that's a lot of commas.

Volcanic Geyser and Cinder Elemental can also hit players. The mana is still there until the next time mana would normally empty from your mana pool, and then it is lost forever.
skizzikmonger Member	posted April 12, 2014 01:38 PM 4 down, 1 to go Athreos, God of Passage 1WB Legendary Enchantment Creature - God Indestructible As long as your devotion to white and black is less than seven. Athreos isn't a creature. Whenever another creature you own dies, return it to your hand unless target opponent pays 3 life. 5/4

jbark Member	posted April 12, 2014 04:11 PM Finally a very good 2 color god. Almost too good.
wayne Member	posted April 12, 2014 07:42 PM Orzhov aggro to make a resurgence?
flam flawless Member	posted April 12, 2014 08:05 PM I'm almost considering replacing Erebos and running it and Blood Baron in MBD edit - actually, I'd also run 2ish of the new city of brass lands so that nightveil would be able to cast anything I peel with it [Edited 1 times, lastly by flam flawless on April 12, 2014]
mulder Member	posted April 13, 2014 03:33 AM Seems like another set of overcosted crap so far :-/.

skizzikmonger Member	posted April 13, 2014 07:09 PM quote: Originally posted by hilikuS: I was thinking junk colors, speaking of resurgence. Exactly what I was thinking. Already have a Junk deck built, I just need to figure out what to take out for Athreos. Edit: Pharika, God of Affliction 1BG Legendary Enchantment Creature - God Indestructible As long as your devotion to black and green is less than seven, Pharika isn't a creature. BG: Exile target creature card from a graveyard. Its owner puts a 1/1 black and green snake enchantment creature token with deathtouch onto the battlefield. 5/5 [Edited 1 times, lastly by skizzikmonger on April 13, 2014]

dfitzg88 Member	posted April 14, 2014 01:02 AM http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/arcana/1471 I'm not a huge fan of the cards so far, but the trailer is pretty sweet.

tragicmagic Member	posted April 14, 2014 04:25 AM Os there any interaction between Spirit of the Labyrinth and Master of the Feast?
coasterdude84 Member	posted April 14, 2014 05:23 AM quote: Originally posted by tragicmagic: Os there any interaction between Spirit of the Labyrinth and Master of the Feast? Only if you have 2 Masters on the board. They draw on your upkeep, not theirs.
tragicmagic Member	posted April 14, 2014 05:50 AM I caught that part on my way to work! Too early in the AM.
Pail42 Member	posted April 14, 2014 10:36 AM quote: Originally posted by tragicmagic: Os there any interaction between Spirit of the Labyrinth and Master of the Feast? No but there is with Notion Thief and Master of the Feast. It's also pretty good with Master of Cruelties.
tragicmagic Member	posted April 14, 2014 01:10 PM Do you think that Mana Confluence will go above $20? I bought a playset on eBay while they were $60 for 4, because I figure they're extremely playable in multiple decks and there's no way they'll go below $15 apiece anytime soon.
