Is there any point at which you can take control of a legend after it comes into play but before it looks for copies of itself? This was my thinking...
Opp- I cast a 2nd Kokusho
Kokusho resolves.
Comes into play effect triggers.
Me- In response I take control of Kokusho via XXXX.
Comes into play resolves.
Both players lose and gain 5 life.
I know its sort of a long shot, but you never know if you don't ask.
If my opponent uses Vedalken Shackles or Confiscate to take my Wonder and during my next turn I kill it, does the Wonder go to my graveyard (the owner) or his (the controller)?
I thought about capsize, but 6 mana is a bit much with no accelleration in the deck. Besides, with 4 scepters and 2 sculpting steel, you have 6 scepters to bounce with. The idea is to never let your opponent cast anything. The blessed reversal ought to have a goblins player pulling their hair out and hopefully land destruction should never see 3 mana. I was tempted to dump limited resources for megrim to provide some pain for a full hand, but a hard lock for 1 mana is nice. Stifle is nice, but it doesn't back up the focus of the deck. It is a bounce deck, not counter. I think discard will see the mana base and aim turn 1 therapy at daze, mana leak, counterspell, etc. By the time they realize what I am playing, it's too late, they won't ever get past 1 land.
Sorry, I get a little confused as to the terms. So in reality what happenes is.
I shrapnel blast the colossus and deal 5 damage to it.
Ragged Veins A triggers and the colossus's owner loses 5 life.
Ragged Veins B triggers and the colossus's owner loses 5 life.
I shrapnel blast the colossus again and deal and additional 5 damage to it.
Ragged Veins A triggers and the colossus's owner loses 5 life.
Ragged Veins B triggers and the colossus's owner loses 5 life.
This idea was being discussed on the T2 boards, but I think it could make it as an interesting deck idea in extended. The idea of the deck is to bounce anything your opponent gets into play and never let them have any permanents.

3 Recall - To get stuff out of graveyard.
4 Stifle - Fun on the stick, but not always appropriate
4 Hibernation - Just in case vs. Green (Ascetic)
4 Blessed Reversal - Neuters Goblins and WW
The ideal play is to get a first turn island and mox. with a couple bounce spells in hand. wait till their turn and bounce the first thing they drop (if they drop a mox of any kind you get 2 for 1). Don't drop the scepter till you can activate it once (turn 3) and then start looking for more of them. The sculpting steel can be used as more scepters if you really need them, but can be mox diamonds if you find yourself stalled out on mana. The tutors can find all of your lock-down pieces and with 16 bounce spells you can usually hold off an opponent long enough to lock them down permanently. Limited Resources really puts the screws to them to find an answer and makes sure that if they do draw that disenchant or naturalize, its headed for the resources, not the scepter first.
Can you make me an avatar that is the following pictures morphing into eachother in a loop? 1. Crimson Hellkite 2. Two-Headed Dragon 3. Imperial Hellkite 4. Worldgorger Dragon 5. Dragon Mage Then melt to black with the words "Who Needs Evolution?" flashing in red.
This will either look extremely sweet or completely retarded but I think you can pull it off.

Right?
For instance, i double ragged veins a darksteel collossus and then double shrapnel blast it next turn. does its owner lose 10 life or 20?
