MTG Salvation

I opened a Zendikar Fatpack from Wal-Mart and ended up with 2 Chandra Ablazes, 2 Day of Judgements, 2 Terrastomper, and 2 of something else I can't remember, the commons/uncommons were different. I bought it before WWK had hit.

I just cracked the strangest Fat Pack I've seen.

2 Day of Judgement
2 Chandra Ablaze
2 Archive Trap
2 Terra Stomper

Ooh, good call.

Also, I would buy that on a playmat in a heartbeat.

If that's Steve Argyle, which it appears to be, you should be able to on his website if he puts it up. He's got some other great stuff on there.

Quote from Manhattan

We had already expended all our countermagic so it resolved and bounced our entire meterlong board back to their hand. I have never experienced something so humiliating and awesome at the same time.

Are you not still the owner of creatures they played with Shared Fate?

108.3. A card's owner is the player who started the game with it in his or her deck. If a card is brought into the game from outside the game rather than starting in a player's deck, its owner is the player who brought it into the game. If a card starts the game in the command zone, its owner is the player who put it into the command zone to start the game. (Legal ownership of a card is irrelevant to the game rules except for the rules for ante; see rule 407.)

Quote from Kaliski

yes, i have the same "problem" lol.

I was just hoping that it would be a "spoiler", but I've heard of this happening in previous mail-outs.

So one of my random old cards turned out to be a Damnation. Does that happen often?

At the very least, he comes pre-embalmed.

so i wonder if this game will have in-game rules cards stating that zendikar is now available

So, how did we go from "should children be taught religion?" to "yeah huh - nuh uh"?

I think I'll start playing with my permanents in a clockwise circle, in the order in which they came into play.

I would refuse to leave play.

Alright. Two more boxes.

Box 2 was very disappointing. Until the end, when I pulled 2 Maelstrom Pulses. That made me a happy panda.

I cracked open a Russian box. It was relatively decent on the value end, but I think the awesomeness factor of owning a Russian Lord of Extinction pays for the whole thing.

Not that bad for a box and a fat pack. I've got two more boxes to open.

On a side note, some guy came into the comic shop today and was trying to sell some cards. I ended up getting a playset of wraths from the guy for 15 bucks. He was going to give them to me for 10 bucks, but I felt bad, so I gave him what I had on me for them. That being said, it's been a pretty good magic day for me, so far.

Quote from NightfallGemini

the whole reason the wisp was solid was because it cost a single black and could chump all day. a 4 mana wisp isn't worth the cascade. for the same mana (assuming you're in grixis), I'd rather just splash green for bloodbraid elf.

That's akin to saying, "Yeah, but I'd rather splash green for a Broodmate Dragon instead of playing the Salvage Titan."
