while I don't love Grave Exchange's art, I don't find it bad in any way. Whats so wrong about it?

Yes, you do have to discard at end of turn (but you can cast any instants you 'draw').

Also, it's not 'drawing'. You exile the cards face down; then they are put into your hand.

I have two caverns on the field; one on Human, one on Giant.

I cast a huntmaster, tapping one of my cavern of souls. I then cast a zealous recruits, using all of my other mana sources. You then mana leak it. I claim that it's uncounterable. You see, I tapped the Cavern naming Giant to cast the first huntmaster. If I played down the cavern naming those specific types, is it up to the opponent to know which one you used?

One issue with this is if you tap forest, cavern, glimmerpost, glimmerpost, your spell can't be countered even if you forget to remind your opponent.

I haven't had the experience, but I understand that in the case that it happens, I fully understand that having someone lie to me ending up as being the best course of action that that was the action that they took.

(In English, I understand if someone lies to me if the situation calls for it.)

Puresteel Paladin and Leonin Shikari and Lightning Greaves.

I would also look into more equipments. They are good. Possibly also Caged Sun, Gauntlet of Power and Extraplanar Lens for more mana; and Darksteel Forge for your equipments.

If those are only commons and uncommons, the box would probably be worth ~$10 (as bulk).

Adding cards to your deck from outside the event is grounds for disqualification. At FNM, you don't get a ban for that; but at a competitive level event (GP Trial, PTQ, GP Day 1, etc) or professional level event (GP day 2, PT, major tournament top cuts) you will get an instant ban.

At FNM, it's up to the players. You don't put cards in and you don't make a culture in which it would be accepted. If you feel it is an issue, say to everyone to please make sure they don't add any cards to their deck (you might say 'Please don't add cards to your deck... accidentally. (implying an accident may make some people less ready to do it)).

Keep in mind that EDH is a casual format. If you want to play Karn, feel free to simply add basic lands to your deck (and clarify with everyone that you will only tap for colorless).

The format is about fun, not about forking out a huge amount of money for lands.

I disagree with your analysis of terminus as only block playable. In standard, it gets rid of a lot of cards (geralf's messenger, strangleroot geist, blood artist/diregraf captain) that would otherwise cause death triggers to own you.

to OP: I don't think it's viable - I can't see it winning against wolf run or delver... but that won't stop people from trying.

Otherwise he would have had to discard.

It was a huge over-exaggeration. For the most part, r/atheism isn't spiteful about religious people. They are only spiteful to the acts of hate people do in the name of their religion.

You want to rationalize your failure of analogy as 'it was an analogy' that's fine; but your point is idiotic to compare r/atheism to WBC.

A Blue/White control deck isn't great because you need Gideon/Tamiyo/Day of Judgement/Snapcasters. Delver isn't great, because of Snapcasters.

Any deck which runs blue runs snapcasters. Blue/White runs Geist, Gideon, Tamiyo.

There's no cheap viable deck in there, unless you want to invest... but DONT take this as you cant make a U/W deck you can have fun with! Get some timely reinforcements, white sun's zenith, caged sun, blue sun's zenith, and go nuts with mana and X spells!

the answer is always to play first unless you have a specific reason to go second. For example, if you're playing with Forge Devil in ISD-DA draft.

I believe it was after pile shuffling but before presenting; as to not look suspicious he called the judge.

Dungrove Elder. Stopping huge creatures in his wake; ME BIGGEST.

Good job. But, I must ask, what was the point of the first half of the thread? You just told us that you took the test, it blinked when you hit submit, got to the end and then realized that you have to actually have some reason to half the topic here.

Red is a good splash color in standard at the moment.

sneak attack; one of the few $100+ promos not printed in helvaults

The other card that you can have any number of is Relentless Rats. If you're playing black, you might want to simply shove like 25 in there for shits and giggles.

FernoKlump · 14 days

Just because a player drew the card they need after not letting you cut does not mean they stacked their deck.

However, they do need to present it to you. Next time, ask to cut his deck when he's done shuffling.

Lastly, I understand why you're annoyed, but it does come off as a bit rude to insinuate that your opponent cheated if you have no proof. After all, it IS FNM. The best way to stop these problems is to be more vigilant.

It's a big claim that he is 'regularly cheating'. I wholeheartedly suggest bringing it up with the owner of the store, but do not expect it to be a quick and easy process.

My opponent went t1 delver. Then t2 delver delver.

I went t2 ratchet bomb. He conceded.

(if he flipped I pop it, if he doesn't I tick it to 1 and pop it)

If a player hasn't played a land on their turn, and they play a land, it doesn't trigger.

If a player hasn't played a land on their turn, then uses Titan, both lands come in at the same time, and Tunnel Ignus triggers twice.

In modern, people run Relic of Progenitus to beat Pod. You simply kill their graveyard a card at a time, and they can't go off because you can relic their combo. Also, you can use a targeted removal spell on Melira to screw them up, also. Path to Exile also exiles, and it's still possible to deck your opponent if they gain infinite life.

Against splinter twin, people use Krosan Grip or Seal of Primordium. Krosan Grip has Split-Second; so it can't be countered and they can't go-off in response. Seal of Primordium can technically be countered, but it makes them waste a counterspell on turn 2 - and if you play seal on t2 they can't even counter it. Also, they normally only play Remand and Pact of Negation anyway... and if Seal resolves it's really hard to beat (you basically have to go off twice).

You can also play Pithing Needle and name their win condition, but that's sometimes iffy.
