BD: On you deck wouldnt making it part snow and useing Phrexian Iron Foot? just a thought. ok here is a deck i just made on the fly at work. it seems to be fun.
yes its Counter Burn idk i just built it think its may be good for competitive
also Jhiora deck well what if we worked it with Peridox Haze? we can excel it our turn 3 turn 4 you play her and suspend 2 things with a loutus Bloom. just thoughts.
Oh dear not counterburn!
Thing about it is...you need a creature. Personally I would go with a big flyer type but, Ironfoot could do well.

Ravus, what do you consider classic rock? I like Bob Dylan, The Band, and The Velvet Underground.
Just about anything (good) from the late seventies to late eighties. Pretty vague, but yeah.
I see your inquiry, and raise you one of my own: Although you probably don't get 101.5, IBAFM, I wonder if you get Nights with Alice Cooper. I've heard talk of many places--outside Madison, hell, outside the US!--that pick up his broadcast (voluntarily; he's a genius... but not the kind we are...).

I haven't heard it. But I'll try to catch a webcast. For those interested I just looked up the link.
Point the first: TS block constructed: Yeah, I should probably get into building my decks for that, as an event is coming up in a few weeks around here... Any thoughts?
The second: Some of the spacing in the first post are inacurate, check the seperation of bloodydoves and myself... you can hardly tell I'm a High Mage! [/ego stroking]
Furthermore, I think there should be a member purge / assignment. Jylichan = Nopost, Darkon = Post. But that's not to say that we haven't seen other members in far too long...
Edit: Ironically, as I post this, I see TonyCR lurking! Not to say that I think he isn't around enough, but meh.

Bah. I go away for three hours and TonyCR posts. Bah humbug.
As for a member purge/assignment, I completely agree. Darkon~ in particular should be assigned to something, given that he's a great active member of the forums, and is a real asset to the Izzet. I suggest whatever position that is under me (Apprentice of something or other), so we can have the power trinity of rocker05, bloodydoves, and Darkon~!!!! MUHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!
Oh, in other news, TS Block.... ****ing sucks. I dislike the Block Constructed, since it's Tarmogoyf, or Blue/Black Control (both of which bore me to tears). I WANT MY RAV BLOCK CONSTRUCTED BACK!!
Yeah, TS block has its imposing decks. But then, Tarmogoyf is just ****ing RETARDED! If you don't have your playset (or think you shouldn't have to, *ahem*), you need to find a way to totally hose it.

I dunno, mass removal? Targeted removal? 6 Swamps and a Tendrils? 5 Land, an Urborg, and a Tendrils? A REGENERATING BLOCKER? Sure, Tarmogoyf is AWESOME, but it's not that amazing IMHO.
I much prefer Standard anyhow. Tenth is a great and fun set, and I want to abuse it so badly in the current meta. :xd:
That's my point... kinda. 'Goyf is really easily killed in Standard, but in Block it gets a bit harder--still not impossible, but harder. Anyway, I digress.

The thing is, as a tournament player (hardcore spike all the way, sorry guys) it's my job to worry about what's in season. And right now that's block. For your information, I do plan to stick with U/B Teachings. I just hope I don't get paired against the mirror two rounds in a row again.
And after this Saturday, i'll be worrying about standard. I am going to nationals to try to grind in, probably playing Gruul because attempting to metagame for a new environment is stupid, so I'll just stick to beating face.
Second order of business:
Madster_SC and Jylichan have been purged, dawiz saved himself at the last second (see previous thread), and I'm curious as to Epock's whereabouts. And I won't assign Darkon~ unless he picks a spot.

Holy hells. I just had to make a point in history: The Izzet currently has four members viewing its thread, all of which are hidden! Cool. This should either be the new precedent for the Izzet (invisibility), or just marked in The History Books.
Edit: Yeah, I can't believe anyone would play Frenetic Sliver. I mean, what the hell?

Well.... I mean, I play it, but I thought that maybe pros would know better... though it's nice against Damnation (My dudes are dead either way.... let's take the chance to save them).
Yeah. I picked up some Tarmogoyfs for $1 a piece in a shop in Sheboygan, WI en route to GP Columbus. I sold the 3 of em on Ebay for $50 recently. It is a broken card, but Green hasn't always had tournament caliber cards, so I'm not too pissed about it. I'm in agreement that Damnation should not have been printed. But then again, I dislike mono-Black control.
I love MBC, but think Damnation still shouldn't have been printed (or at least that it should replace *** at some point). I LIKE white having all the board sweepers, it gives me a reason to play it. <_<
Almost couldn't've put it better myself. Touche, good sir.
Damnation is a pain in the ass, it's true, but they have been avoiding my playgroup (or anywhere I go, for that matter) since before PC was legal even for limited. You don't want me to recant that story, do you? It's so very painful!

Same here. I've seen exactly one Damnation in my possession, and that's one I cracked in packs, and promptly traded it away for a butt-ton of other cards.
Oh dear not counterburn!
Thing about it is...you need a creature. Personally I would go with a big flyer type but, Ironfoot could do well.
Suggestion:
6 Snow-Covered Island
4 Snow-Covered Mountain
3 Faerie Conclave
3 Shivan Reef
2 Molten Slagheap
1 Tolaria West
1 Scyring Sheets
2 Mouth of Ronom
1 Academy Ruins
1 Urza's Factory
3 Phyrexian Ironfoot
1 Rimefeather Owl
1 Akroma, Angel of Fury
Spells:
4 Remand
4 Cancel (Rune Snag)
3 Spell Snare
3 Delay
4 Rift Bolt
4 Electrolyze
4 Incinerate
3 Psionic Blast
2 Tidings
Something like that would be my guess for counterburn. With sideboard options like Demonfire, Pyroclasm etc.

Damnation pretty much proves that a 4 mana wrath variant is too good in block.
Tarmogoyf is the nuts in legacy, so yea, he's good in block too.
Frenetic Sliver... I hate coinflip cards...

Damnation should never have been printed... ever. Zvi was right all along.
Goyf... is just a major pain in the ass, but can be handled (sad when you have to burn a whole Damnation/Wrath on a single Goyf...).
Frenetic Sliver... you're joking, right? This thing is being PLAYED??
