    In fact, I personally pledge to send 24 red velvet Georgetown cupcakes to your store if kokopuff is unbanned. Is that a bribe? Absolutely.
    Quote from Benalicious Hero
    Hello Hinotama Is that so? Look at your legacy format. Now back to me. Now back to your legacy format. Now back to me. Sadly, your legacy format isn't mine. But if it didn't let your opponent drop a land on your first turn and switched back to the tried and true method, it could smell like mine. Look down. Back up. Where are you? You're on a boat with the format your format could smell like. What's in your hand? Back at me. I have it; it's a Spell Pierce with an extra 2 for that thing you love to cast on turn one. Look again. The pierces are now stifles. Anything is possible when you let your opponent put a land into play on your opening turn. I'm on a turn one Tarmogoyf.

    Don't think of it (not eliminating the dollar bill) as costing your country billions, think of it as supporting single mothers and med students the old-fashioned way: by paying to see their national geographics on display.
    Quote from Sanity"s_Eclipse
    If they're not gonna play by the rules of the game y'all have agreed to play, why not just stick your heads in buckets and bang on each other until you mentally downgrade a couple notches? Seems to have the same end effect of them doing whatever the hell they want, lol.

    I think the next set should be a return to New Phyrexia, where Nicol Bolas invades and takes it over in the name of Lorwyn. I would love to see a reprint of Elesh Norn as her price is getting ridiculous.

    Nothing in Portland is funny to me anymore. When you drive under a bridge, look up, and see an ass hanging off the edge... and have to slam on the breaks to avoid hitting the turn bomb coming down... yeah, novelty gone.

    The answer is obviously Rush Limbaugh.

    Quote from Jack_from_NC
    I hope that *Insert 20 dollar card here* is in there, in foil, with new full-frame art, in a language non-native to my own. When I open the box, I want the people around me to cheer me on, crying "Jack Jack, He's the mannnnn!" Afterwards, while disassembling the decks so that I can gut them for their value rather than appreciate them as a product, I want Mark Rosewater to come up to me and personally thank me for helping stimulate Hasbro's stock in a non-substantial way. Then we'd go bowling, and go to a club which has the outside on the inside, all the while bobbing our heads to "what is love". Because if we're going to turn a rumor mill thread into masturbatory, non-sensical wish fulfillment, let's go all the way.

    Seriously, who's afraid of Norin or Zedruu? One's an absolutely worthless commander with a terrible color identity, a useless ability, and absolutely no tribal support to help it out. The other is Norin the Wary.

    Here's a quick story, partially because I'm bored, but mostly because I can:

    (This was taken from Gaka, who should be 2012 POTY for the commander forum)

    The new player overvalues his life total (on average) and sees Teh Koku as the ultimate in life gain potential, particularly since that player just bought a set of Graveborn and realizes what he can do with Animate Dead. Cabal Therapy is of course crap, but that's the next step in Timmy's evolution to Spike, 5c Hermit Druid combo.

    So now Timmy has a miniature combo. He casts Teh Koku, and either sits behind it until his opponents are forced to attack him, where he'll block with his immortal 5/5, or he'll attack constantly with this ultra-powerful dragon and kill his opponents until THEY are forced to kill it. Timmy grins at his genius, as Johny windmill slams the Wrath of God to DEAL with that dragon for all time, knowing the life loss would be a devastating blow, but what else was he to do?

    Timmy casts his foily Animate Dead, and brings back Teh Koku. His friends realize just how busted his deck really is, and struggle to find some way of dealing with the mighty dragon before it kills them all. Timmy knows how awesome he is now, because he secretly holds in his hand the Necromancy he traded his terrible Tarmogoyf for. Teh Koku is unkillable! And finally, Timmy's opponent scoops, and Timmy nods satisfactorily, knowing it was only right.

    Spike is born, and he has a smartphone. To the internetz!

    Scouring the MTGS forums (courtesy of a Google search for "broken MTG deck plz!!1!") Spike finds himself in the 1v1 section, and at the Hermit Druid Combo thread. Spike remembers this terrible card of his past life as a Timmy, and takes another look at it. Conveniently, his broken Teh Koku deck is sitting nearby, his foil Teh Koku blazing gloriously in the sunlight. If you thought that was dirty, please find Earthbind.

    He looks at the druid. Then back at Teh Koku. He remembers something, and digs through his deck to find Animate Dead, his old friend. Suddenly, he starts thinking to himself. Is this deck really that good? Spike looks through the decklist, and sees a copy of Cabal Therapy in the list, that terrible old card that came with Graveborn. Spike laughs to himself, it can't be that good... but can it? This is the internetz after all, and they do not lie. Spike goes through the decklist, not understanding but not wanting to. There IS NO TEH KOKU!!

    Spike doesn't yet know what a banlist is. He only knows that Teh Koku is the best card ever. However, Spike trusts the internetz, and tries out this new and unimaginable deck. It takes him an hour to read all the cards. Another twelve to understand what this deck.. does. Teh Koku is a thing of the past. Life? Bah. It's useless. I can go infinite at the twitch of a man with a stick. Infinite! Fear me, Johny. But how can he get this deck? There is a very large pricetag attached to the lands, something Spike does not yet understand, but he will. It's okay. Mommy loves Spike, and it's Spikes birthday soon. Hoorah.

    And so, Spike buys and masters this deck, and goes back to his group of young minions. He looks at their silly Eager Cadets and Essence of the Wild and sits down, preparing to crush their tiny souls under the might of his NEW best friend - Hermit Druid. They begin, and quickly Spike lays down a turn 2 Hermit Druid. His "friends" laugh at him, what a bad card to be playing, it MILLS YOURSELF! In fact, one of them is playing The Mimeoplasm Mill, courtesy of this awesome new product called Commander.

    Spike grins to himself. Soon, they'll see. His turn comes around, and he is finally able to activate the ability. He does so, slowly, evilly. His friends look on, astonished, as Spike reveals each card (all so new and strange) and puts them into the graveyard. Unbeknownst to the other players, Spike has his copy of Animate Dead in hand, and he's just waiting to go crazy.

    Spike completes his mill, and plays his land for the turn. His opponents are incredibly confused, but accept that Spike knows what he's doing. Spike casts his Animate Dead, and prepares to bring ULTIMATE DOOM to his opponents. As he explains his awesome infinite combo to the group, he enjoys seeing the downcast eyes of his foes, and offers his hand to the The Mimeoplasm player first.

    "In response..." goes Mimeo, "I cast Oona's Grace on you."

    Spike pauses. Then reads the Grace. Defeated! It's not possible! Spike grabs his his deck and stumbles away, frustrated. How dare they *obscure precursor to instants* him! Spike finds a cardboard box. He climbs inside, and sobs.

    "I would have won... if I hadn't taken an Oona's Grace to the library."

    Don't make Spike cry. Ban Hermit Druid, unban Kokusho.
