A few of those right-handed chords (B,E,F#,G# and waitasec... why am I looking at 2 of the *same* note (G#) on the same chord?? Is that misplaced and meant to be E,G#,A,B? ...because E,G#,G#,B doesn't make much sense) look kinda like "Just mash your hand down on this neighbourhood of keys". |

Ok, I need to know who is at fault here. I am in my room, headphones on, music playing, not so loud that it's impossible to hear anything, but impossible to hear a phone ringing in the other room. My sister is in the other room, and can indeed hear the phone, and is within walking distance of the phone. A company calls, looking for me, my sister picks up the phone, stares at the caller ID, and takes the phone to my room showing the caller ID in my face saying 'I think this is for you.' But, in the time it took for her to get up, stare at the caller ID, register it as for me, and take it to my room, the phone stops ringing and goes to the answering machine. Is it my fault for wearing headphones and not hearing the phone, or my sister's fault for not answering the phone? Said company btw was McDonald's, and that call may have been an interview call. |

Voice of the Forest 2.0 G: Green Mana T: Tap ability Trample: If a creature you control would assign enough damage to its blockers to destroy them, you may have it assign the rest of its damage to defending player or planeswalker Intimidate: This creature can't be blocked except by artifact creatures and/or creatures that share a colour with it. Haste: This creature can attack and use T: abilities on the turn it comes out Lands: 20x Forest Spells: 4x Overgrowth - 2G - Enchantment - Aura. Enchant Land. When Enchanted Land is tapped for Mana, add GG to your mana pool. 3x Cultivate - 2G - Sorcery - Search your library for up to two basic lands. Put one on the field tapped, and the other in your hand. Shuffle your library afterward. 2x Overwhelming Stempede - 3GG - Sorcery - Creatures you control get trample and +X/+X until end of turn, where X is the greatest power among creatures you control 1x Asceticism - 3GG - Enchantment - Creatures you control can't be the target of spells or abilities your opponent's control. 1G - Regenerate Target Creature 1x Genesis Wave - XGGG - Reveal the top X cards of your library. Put any number of cards with converted mana cost X or less on the battlefield. Put the rest into the graveyard. Creatures: 4x Llanowar Elves - G - 1/1 - T: Add G to your Mana Pool 2x Garruk's Companion - GG - 3/2 - Trample 4x Leatherback Baloth - GGG - 4/5 2x Greenweaver Druid - 2G - 1/1 - T: Add GG to your Mana Pool 4x Elvish Piper - 3G - 1/1 - GT: You may put a creature card from your hand onto the battlefield 2x Bellowing Tanglewurm - 3GG - 4/4 - Intimidate. Other Green creature you control have Intimidate. 4x Duskdale Wurm - 5GG - 7/7 - Trample 2x Engulfing Slagwurm - 5GG - 7/7 - Whenever Engulfing Slagwurm blocks or becomes blocked by a creature, destroy that creature. You gain life equal to that creature's toughness. 1x Gaea's Revenge - 5GG - 8/5 - Gaea's Revenge can't be Countered. Haste. Gaea's Revenge can't be the target of nongreen spells or abilities from nongreen sources. 1x Liege of the Tangle - 6GG - 8/8 - Trample. Whenever Liege of the Tangle deals combat damage to a player you may choose and number of target lands you control and put an awakening counter on each of them. Each of those lands is an 8/8 Elemental creature for as long as it has an awakening counter on it. They're still lands. 1x Khalni Hydra - GGGGGGGG - 8/8 - Trample. Khalni Hydra costs G less for each green creature you control. _______________________________________________________ I think this deck speaks for itself. Mana rampage to start, with Llanowar elves providing quick green mana, which leads into Cultivates to add more mana, while also ensuring another forest can be played the following turn. Overgrowth is an incredible card for these situations, causing a single forest to triple its productivity. Garruk's Companion and Leatherback Baloths are incredibly cheap stompers for their price, and were a shoe-in to enter. Once we get enough mana out, the big creatures begin to spring forth. Duskdale Wurm is a hefty 7/7 trampler, Engulfing Slagwurm will eat your creatures no matter how big they are, and Gaea's Revenge is a handy little stomper. Khalni Hydra can practically be dropped for free if enough creatures get out. Liege of the Tangle though... well, by the time he gets out, there will be plenty of forests out... which will all become 8/8 creatures if he inflicts even a single point of damage. Of course, what would a creature deck be without creature support? Asceticism is an enchantment that keeps my opponents from simply blowing my creatures up with a simple spell, and can let me, for two mana (a measly price) stop any creature from dying in combat. Genesis Wave is simply the most insane spell I've seen in a while. Due to how much mana this deck can generate, this spell has no reason to not be cast with less than 8 mana as the X cost. If that happens, then I cast all 8 cards that I flip up, regardless of their price. In a blank test, I managed to get -15- mana spent on Genesis Wave, which resulted in a boost of mana, a fresh horde of creatures, and some mana support spells. Oh, and what of 'Overwhelming Stampede?' Well, this card is Overrun. On STEROIDS. With the number of high powered creatures out, this can cause death in insane numbers. Imagine if you will, a horde of creatures that just received a +8/+8 bonus and trample for a turn. Overwhelming Stampede is what I like to call my Trump Card. As once it's played, unless the opponent casts Fog or something similar, they are dead. Dead. Dead. |

I would have read "Put any number of cards with converted mana cost X or less on the battlefield. Put the rest into the graveyard." as meaning that the TOTAL converted cost of ALL the cards you're playing has to be X or less, not as each card individually needing to be X or less. As you're interpreting it, the card does indeed seem to be massively OP in a green mana-rush deck. ~~~~ Anyway, I really have no idea what the game environment looks like now, and don't really care to find out. When Wizards pretty much screwed over the entire population of early-adopters back in the '90s by completely changing the rules and game mechanics after 5E - which was done for two basic reasons: One was to ensure that the established decks would become completely worthless in competition, thus requiring a complete rework rather than just an adaptation to include cards from new sets (i.e. make the established players spend even more money than they already were spending); the other was to make the game easier for children to learn and play (which we call 'dumbing down' the game), in order to broaden the audience and get more people to spend money on the game. Obviously, it was a shrewd business decision which seems to have been working out quite well for the company, and if the cost is alienating the early generation of players that made the game profitable and great in the first place, that's a small price to pay from the perspective of corporate bean counters. Yes, I'm still bitter about it, over a decade later. |

Wow... That spiel almost makes me not want to post my deck constructions here. Granted, I wasn't into magic during 5E - I didn't start until the Ravnica Block (Guildpact, Ravnica, Dissension) which was released around 2005. So, I don't entirely know what went on with this 5E thingie in terms of dumbing it down. I've looked over older cards (I even have a 4th edition Howling Mine, and a 4th edition Wrath of God), seen what they do, and frankly, Some of them back then are indeed quite scary, but I can see why they may not hold a candle to some of the cards of today. I may have evoked similar feelings to you Kyla, when I saw the new set 'Rise of the Eldrazi,' and some of the cards it was releasing. The Eldrazi Titans themselves are forces to be reckoned with, and I lost many a game to some of these things. Allow me to illustrate: There is a creature called 'Emrakul, The Aeons Torn. It is a 15/15 for 15 colourless mana. But what else does it have? 'Emrakul, the Aeons Torn can't be countered. - Fun stuff there. Already you've made it so that this card is most certainly coming out. When you cast Emrakul, take an extra turn after this one. - So he's a creature with a Time Warp spell grafted onto it. Doesn't that spell cost like, 5 mana? Flying, protection from colored spells, annihilator 6 - Ooooook, Let's look at this one after another. Flying - Simple enough, he floats over stuff. Protection from Coloured Spells - Ok, so you can't Terror, Terminate or Doom Blade him, some of the easiest creature destruction methods around. And Annihilator 6. ... Does this card seriously exist? (The unfortunate truth - Yes, it does. I have one) When Emrakul is put into a graveyard from anywhere, its owner shuffles his or her graveyard into his or her library. Oh, and that's just icing on the cake, to protect you from a milling deck.' When I first saw cards like this, and was pinned down by Annihilator, I had much the same opinion you had Kyla - I was about ready to quit MtG altogether. These new cards were simply too powerful for my puny Ravnica block deck to cope with. Granted, I've stuck with it, but that's mostly because I play casually with friends, and told tournaments that they can go and screw off. And there's my $0.50 on the matter |

It wasn't the cards they introduced when they went from 5E to 6E. It was the complete overhaul and change to the rules of the game: The entire timing structure of a turn was re-written from scratch, which broke many of the existing combos (making the cards that people had invested top-dollar in buying completely worthless) and introduced new ones (making cards that people were dumping for pennies into gold mines after they'd been sold off). The cards themselves weren't the issue at all in that change - just the underlying rules changes. |

Trying Something Different: Friend of mine has told me that he wants to run a DnD 4E session, and so, he told me to try and make a character. I was nearly finished with the character (An Avenger, new class found in the PHB2, they excel in one-on-one combat) when I realized, naturally, I hadn't come up with a name. My character creation process is often very backwards - The character comes before the name itself, or at least what the character can do. The idea I originally had was using a Razorclaw Shifter (Human with feline attributes/mannerisms) who was an absolute patron of the God/Dess of Nature. In looking around my room for inspiration for a name, my eyes settled on my PS2 game shelf, spotting the game 'Grim Grimoire' (Actually pretty good, try and get it if you can) I rolled the word around on my tongue a bit. 'Grimoire' sounded like it could in fact be an interesting name (Shifter names are often nouns such as Flint, Steel, Autumn, etc) But, then something didn't mesh - A just and good defender of the forest with the name 'Grimoire?' Doesn't really mesh quite well. So, I had to do one thing - Either pick a new motivation, or a new name. And lo and behold, the new idea came. Grimoire, the Servant of Zehir - the Evil God of Snakes and Poison. So, indeed, this marks for the very first time that in a DnD game, I will be playing an Evil PC, just to shake things up a bit. I won't directly antagonize the party though. Zehir prefers deception after all. |
