I respect it because I'm pretty sure they are the only printing of their arts- future sets were reprints, or had foil blackborder versions

The between-matches bits with Mark Rosewater make him seem eminently punch-able.
THIS when I saw that I facepalmed and wondered why I hadn't thought of that before!
Random edit: They really should make Scry an eternal mechanic that's on a lot of stuff. It smooths out a lot of the shitty parts of Magic

dafuq at Wescoe's shorts
Dafuq in General at Wesoce- is he wearing a wig?
Pretty much. Both players in top deck mode and Pearl Lake Ancient player (Owen Turtenwald in this situation) then attacks with pearl lake ancient. After attacks, tap scry lands (or lands that net you life) to float 3 mana and bounce those lands and pearl lake ancient, cast ancient and start scrying away lands to keep ahead of the non control player. It was great to watch happen on camera.

I tried drafting the 5-color deck again. Dafuq? I thought the point of this was that you were supposed to get premium cards late. Instead I get shit-all in pack three.
This is my second time trying it (you more or less have to force it), and at this point I'm convinced that it's just not worth it. It's a gamble that will sometimes pay off handsomely, but sometimes you just have a deck with an awkward curve, a bunch of lands that come into play tapped, and things don't quite work out. Four color (i.e., three colors with a splash for an off-color bomb) is quite reasonable, but the "draft all the fixing then get pass all the bombs" plan just doesn't work in practice.

Yeah I seriously don't get what the deal is with his hair. It changes every time I see him and it's always shit. I guess he just went bald/balding young? In general he looks way older than his actual age (30s I think).
Ewww what is that banner doing in that aggro deck?
Also runnig Radiant Fountain to gain 2 life a few times!

I liked the Radiant Fountain clutch-ness in the Owen vs Sigrist matchup. I definitely give it some respect now.

Just because a card is playable in some deck doesn't make it worth investing in.
I don't spec, I just grab playsets for myself and tell others where I think movement is.

Pretty much what I do as well. I did the math and it just takes too much time and effort to speculate in Magic. I'd rather look at stocks.
All I try to do is grab playsets for myself at the lowest possible price to reduce the cost of playing the game.

I just have my doubts Whip is going to go up to an unmanageable price - Bident was played in every Mono Blue deck and it never went anywhere.

Owen vs Yuuya in the final round of swiss. I'm rooting for Owen to win-and-in to the Top 8, let's see the power of UB Control!
Did my 2nd draft tonight. Went with Green, White, Black but felt like my curve was pretty bad. The more I played the more I realized I was big creature heavy with only a few 1-3 drops. The drafts have been good for collecting cards though, going red/white on Thursday night and then heavy green with some white and black tonight. Have a good spread of cards and a couple solid cards from this set. Going to start eyeing what I can build. Since drafts are only going to be khans until the next thing drops how should I approach buying the older sets? Should I care which one is getting replaced next or just buy what I need?

Aetherling was just stupid unkillable though.
You turn the lands into bros and untap them with ascendancy to kill b/c of trample once you have infinite mana.
infinite Mana -> Bounce Nissa enough to turn all lands into creatures. Infinite Ascendancy triggers to make all of them gigantic tramplers.

Played one of the 16-man sealed events, playing Temur. 4th round opponent also playing Temur made me totally jealous by dropping not one, but two Savage Knuckleblades, then just to rub it in, sideboarded into a Mardu deck for game 3 and still won. Getting frozen out of a color sucks, as usual.

And I shook my head. I just don't want people to be further encouraged to play that. Blergh.
