Definitely take out Great Whale. If you leave Palinchron in, then I'd find room for Mana Reflection and/or Vorinclex, because otherwise the 'Chron is just a mediocre flier.

Both of those cards are parts of the most powerful infinite combos in the deck; Great Whale's place can easily be taken by Peregrine Drake though, it turns out.

5 bucks and smile for dem swords bro!

 

[echoshifting]

Zaraki are you looking for cash or cards?

 

[noquarter]

Is anyone looking for these cards? I figured I'd list them here before I just ebay them. I'm pretty much just looking for m12/innistrad block

I have:
2x Phyrexian Obliterator
2x Sword of Feast and Famine
1x Sword of War and Peace
2x Surgical Extraction
2x Phantasmal Images
1x Mox Opal
1x Karn
3x Birds of Paradise

I have other rares but those are the most expensive.

Yeah, I'd be interested in the Images and Extractions. What were you looking for? Need a Sorin?

 

[Zaraki_Kenpachi]

Mostly M12/Innistrad cards but I guess cash would be ok too. I actually haven't thought that far ahead on rares I want, I just have a handful I was thinking about. I'll try to make a list real quick.

Well, you know I have a ton of shit because I buy packs. Let me know!

Would that enchantment apply to casting flashbacks?

I don't see why not

 

[Zaraki_Kenpachi]

Looking for:

Garruk Primal Hunter
Garruk Relentless
Jace Memory Adept
Any Innistrad Dual lands (isolated chapels, hinterland harbor, etc.)
Copperline Gorge
Primeval Titan
Liliana of the Veil
Bloodline Keeper
Stromkirk Noble
Olivia Voldaren
Sorin Lord of Innistrad

Those are the biggest, might be willing to take other stuff but not sure.

Garruk Primal Hunter + Olivia Voldaren + Stormkirk Noble (foil) + Bloodline Keeper + Hinterland Harbor (x2) for the Sword of War and Peace?

 

[joelseph]

I will give you Sorin for the SoWaP

 

[Zaraki_Kenpachi]

Hmm, I might have to do this.

 

[ultron87]

Man, maybe I should just trade the Sword I have too.

Arcane Melee seems like a waste of a turn.

Arcane Melee seems like a waste of a turn.

It requires some specific strategies yeah, I see it mostly being useful in casual combo decks.

 

[Lucario]

Reduced cost is honestly one of my favorite mechanics, and as a casual-ish Johnny in Standard most of the time, I'm already trying to find ways to break it.


.... I can't think of many =\

 

[siddx]

Arcane Melee might get some play in EDH, but other than that, it's like rooftop storm, it looks like it would be awesome but by the time you get it out it's pointless.

I was so crushed when I realized this about rooftop storm

I built a whole deck around it, and it was an unmitigated disaster.

 

[Haly]

Needs to be 3cc. Considering it also affects your opponent it wouldnt even be that unreasonable barring some degenerate comboes.

Anything that costs 5cc or more should go a long way to winning you the game but with that card youre already low on steam by the time you play it. You can cast Divination for U though.

 

["God's Beard!"]

So you still get to draw after casting a creature for free? Descendent's Path seems so good.

 

[zethren]

Yeah. I might just toss it into my Werewolf tribal deck for fun. Probably won't stick around, but who knows. Could work out great.

 

[WanderingWind]

So...the faerie deck was a big success. Each of those 14 cards was a 3/3 flying with shroud (FUCK YOU OONA).

But, she delved too deeply. Too quickly. She awoken the wrath of the angry elves. I pulled a Overwhelming Stampede with my Drove of Elves being at 12 power. Nothing like connecting for 80 damage!

Those faeries are legit though. She nearly spanked my favorite deck on it's initial run.

 

[Haly]

Hey.

God's Beard.

I found a card for your deck.

BAM KICK IT UP A NOTCH.

 

[ultron87]

Now you can get 10 for 1ed by a Doom Blade!

Also:

Kudos to whoever called the "she's there for the moon" thing.

For Tamiyo, every plane holds a mystery that sets it apart from all others, and on Innistrad that mystery is the silver moon. Tamiyo has been observing Innistrad for many cycles, using her powers as a Planeswalker to gain insight into the force it exerts on the world. She has watched with rapt attention the moon's effect on the lycanthropic curse, and she has written extensive notes on the ebb and flow of vampire frenzies in relation to the moon's influence. Her curiosity eventually led her to the door of the famed Nephalian astronomancer Jenrik. Tamiyo spent months in his moonstone tower poring over countless charts, adding her own observations to his collection about the odd power the moon holds over the denizens and populace of this plane.

Not bad, not bad.

Soratami! Awesome!

 

[An-Det]

New planeswalker is neat. I'm not up to speed on the Innistrad lore, so it being a Kamigawa moonfolk threw me for a loop.

 

[WanderingWind]

Emancipation Angel is alright. Nothing crazy cool.

 

[zethren]

And the new angel is only an uncommon as well! With art like that, I'll be collecting foil versions for sure.

Emancipation Angel is alright. Nothing crazy cool.

She's a low costing Angel, which is what we need if we are to see any fun Angel tribal decks forming

 

[Zaraki_Kenpachi]

New planes walker is interesting... Not sure how I feel about it yet.

 

[darkside31337]

White aggro was the absolute bomb to play in Zendikar limited thanks to Kor Skyfisher shenanigans.

Shame this is uncommon but I love that Kor Skyfisher Angel.

 

[f0rk]

I feel like white is getting a lot of ETB value enablers and not as many powerful cards to use it on. Hopefully they are to come. Blade Splicer would definitely be sick with some of them

 

[echoshifting]

I am pretty jazzed about this set. I am thinking of expanding beyond my group of friends and testing the waters at my FLGS for the prerelease. Maybe try a booster draft first, see how it is.

Eep. =X

Any of you guys go to these things?

 

[WanderingWind]

Big White Weenie.

 

[The Technomancer]

I really hope the new planeswalker doesn't spike in price to badly. I want a few copies just because she's soratami.

 

["God's Beard!"]

So far I'm most impressed by that take an extra turn for 2 card. OMG.

8 mana card with double cascade? well got damn.

To prereleases? Yup, every one since Rise of the Eldrazi. Always go with a group of friends, and always great fun. Our shop usually hosts midnight prereleases too.

 

[echoshifting]

Cool, I think I'm gonna try to convince a buddy to go in on 2-headed giant with me. And I think I'm definitely gonna do the solo event.

edit: sweet, my flgs does a midnight event too!

A blue planes walker? I'm sure it'll jump in price.

 

[Sinatar]

That new planeswalker is awesomeness. Then again I am a blue whore.

I hate the art though, why didn't they go with D. Alexander Gregory who's done all the awesome PW art? Oh well. I want one. Or 4.

He's a great artist, but he ruined Jace's look with that insane Final Fantasy hairdoo. :/

 

[ultron87]

Playing with the Magic Online Planeswalker cards. Getting beaten by a "put down hexproof guy -> stack enchantments" deck makes me want to hurt something.

 

[Boogalogist]

Wow...Bruna totally chews up Uril and Zur in EDH.

Yeah but I'm not sure if the best enchantements that you want to put on a beater are in blue and white. Uril gives your deck access to red and green
