    Buy singles. Buying 2 more garruks is significantly cheaper than buying a booster box.

  • posted a message on True Name Nemesis
    Quote from Lectrys
    I'm trying roughly the same thing with 3 Toxic Deluge maindeck in a Toxic Junk deck I brewed up, and no, a resolved Deluge that kills a True-Name Nemesis does not always seal the game against Nemesis decks. I once killed a Nemesis and a Delver on Cockatrice with a resolved Deluge (it didn't kill any of my guys, so it was a blowout), then got two Nemeses to the face later and lost to them. If one Deluge doesn't cut it, then you will need a lot of Golgari Charms to contain Nemesis consistently.





    That reminds me of all the times I faced off in Cockatrice against Nemesis-Phantasmal Image decks. Some of them were janky (Impluse maindeck, mono-blue), but fair decks basically lose to multiple Nemeses.


    Have you tried zealous persecution? It has implications against elves, goblins, TNN, and sometimes delvers.

    See this thread from earlier this week for some practical advice for a first-time GP attendee.

    Registration is done online here. If you're not going on Friday night for side events, then yes, you must show-up early on Saturday to sign-in, get your free stuff, and ensure you're present for the players' meeting.


    Actually, there isn't any saturday registration anymore. It's all online or on friday.

  • posted a message on G/B midrange or G/B devotion to black?
    I cannot decide on wether to focus on having a G/B midrange with reaper of the wilds and Dead bridge goliath or focusing on devotion to black? with Grey merchants, Whip of erebos and Desecration Demons. please help :confused2::confused2::confused2::confused2::confused2:


    I believe that the first thread was good enough. We appreciate your tenacity, but we're all inconvenienced by you making 2 threads. Perhaps you could take a gander at the casual forums rather than magic general.

  • posted a message on Why is trying to win bad?
    Quote from Neuroticneurok
    I pity the poor people that have to play against you, OP, I really do. You sound like a right little joykill.

    If winning is all you care about, please, don't play Magic anymore, for the sake of the rest of us. It really disgusts me when I see players who are as singleminded as ants, yet as merciless as sharks - you're not playing for the fun of playing, you're playing so that you can crush people under your deck.


    Then stay at home and don't go on the forums. Annoying morons like you are exactly why I hate casual players. You whine about "unfun strategies", "net-decking", and "try-hards". If you don't want people to want to win, play my little pony: the card game, or at the very least stop playing magic.

  • posted a message on Commander taking over
    Quote from Brentane
    I'm extremely depressed. I love magic but the new commander format is my least favourite format. I cannot stand it.

    Reason why I am depressed is because the format is so popular in my meta, they play nothing but commander. I am the only person I know who does not like the format.

    What do I do? This is basically the end of magic for me of this continues. It does not show of it any time slowing down.

    Sorry if I'm saying the same thing someone else did, but that's not depression. Depression is an actual chemical imbalance. What you're describing is sadness.

    I LOVE this card. It's honestly one of the best sideboard cards in legacy.

    I usually drink water, but if it's before 11 AMish I'll usually be drinking a coffee. I'm addicted :(.

  • posted a message on COMM = GOD PACKS?
    Quote from gethinsite
    When revised was the current set, and I still bought packs, I bought and cracked a couple of boosters at my LGS. Both packs had rares in the uncommon slots!

    So I did what any fine upstanding citizen would do. Said nothing and bought a couple more. Sure enough, rares in the uncommon slots. Quickly working out that this was probably the case with the whole box, I put the rest of the box on lay by and bought a couple of packs from the next box on the shelf.

    Four rares per pack.

    There were at least three boxes in the store that had the same deal and I bought two of them.

    To this day I've got more dual lands and Chaoslaces than I can shake a stick at.

    You know, if you ever felt like you had, too many dual lands, you could always give them to me. It would be a great burden, but I would be able to handle it.

  • posted a message on Is writing down your opponents hand lame?
    Quote from Maverick827
    I associate writing down your opponent's hand with jerk players. Probably because people who take a game that seriously are statistically prone to being jerks.


    Then stay at home with your friends and don't go on the message boards. Actually, I would recommend this to anyone who's stupid. If you have a problem with people who take the game "too seriously", then maybe you should just not play. If there are prizes, people will want to win them. Should we ban looking up decks online? It's "cheesy", "unoriginal", "lame", and "too try-hard". If you don't want to play with the big kids, go back to kindergarten.

  • posted a message on How do you layout your lands?
    I put my graveyard on the left side of my playmat, with the deck right next to it. I put spells next to the deck on the bottom and lands on the top. I clump all my lands in one pile and seperate them out when I cast a spell.
