I think it's pretty dang refined, and the dude has some interesting results. I do think there's a bit of room for improvement, especially in the sideboard, but overall I definitely am intrigued by it. Seems like something that'd be amusing to use at fnm to dick around.

Nit picky note, standard, modern, legacy, and limited all have lands that make blue mana, shouldn't pauper be lonely sandbar to keep the trend.

I think that ended up being more of a coincidence. Casual has Gaea's Cradle, which is green, so yeah, I'm pretty sure the idea was to have the best/most used lands be the title.

I might be the only one, but I use lonely sandbar a lot, shamefully i've used it more than forgotten cave. What MUC deck doesn't want to be able to pitch excess lands to dig deeper. And the most common non-basic is see is terramorphic
expanse.

Honestly, considering the color most under discussion ithe standerd forum, I feel like it should be called 'Mountain' instead

I use Sandbar in my EDH deck. That's all I can think of.

You should try it in pauper MUC, it's great (if you aren't using any other etbt lands).

The amount of people who don't know that Chandra's Phoenix recurs with Chandra is astounding .

Just had a mono black control player tell me to "read my fucking cards" after i +1 chandra and brought back a phoenix...

I consider that to be an excellent oportunity to highlight how fucking stupid my opponent is to them:

Dear opponent,

Whenever an opponent is dealt damage by a red instant or sorcery spell you control or by a red planeswalker you control, return Chandra's Phoenix from your graveyard to your hand.

Chandra, Pyromaster deals 1 damage to target player and 1 damage to up to one target creature that player controls. That
creature can't block this turn.

Forever yours,
redthirst

PS - I hope you choke on a dick and die.

Specifically, red's dick.

Well, obviously.

I wanna spend red's money!



I don't know why that Friday quote is in my head, but it is. I think I'm going to walk around work asking people what they got on my forty.

Yo Khaos, weren't you comming up to Hotlanta sometime soon?

Yeah. But not until March or May, I think. Some sealed GP. Actually, I'm gonna have to check the mothership for the exact date.

Go for the tournament. Stay for the hooker/coke/mead binge with redthirst.

If it's Sealed, I probably won't even play, but I'm down for the redbro party.

Come to think of it, I actually hate sealed.

Maybe just do side events and trading maybe? Then hit the bars and see where that takes us.

I'm sure there'll be Drafts on the side.

Play a Draft, drink too much, play another, etc.

Sign me the fuck up.

Nothing wrong with a little experimentation, though that usually happens in college.

Who says it stops there?

Saw catching fire last night, clippers game tonight, slept all day. Wake up, see Owen wins Back to back GPs and there are 28 nightveil spectors in the top 8.

Also, Custom cards. Think I'm caught up.

How was Catching Fire? I read the trilogy, so I'm expecting it to be pretty good.

However, I cannot wait until Wednesday so I can see Oldboy. I want to bring a hammer with me.

Wasn't really a fan of the Hunger Games books - the first one was pretty good, but the other two didn't do anything for me.

I mean, I know they were written for tweens and all, but the characters were incredibly 2 dimensional. The good guys were absolutely good and never had to make any kind of hard decisions and the bad guys were absolutely bad and you never felt like they were motivated by anything beyond simply being bad guys.

Catching Fire was pretty typical of middle-of-a-series books/movies...development of the overarching conflict, character development and so on. Obviously a must-
see if you're going to do the trilogy, but not a hard and fast must-see-right-now. That is to say, if you have better things to do with your movie monies, feel free to rent it right before the last movie comes out. I went so that my daughter wouldn't be the "only person in the whole 8th grade" going back to school today without having seen it...

I live in Atlanta, so I look foreward to the meetup. There's actually a SCG Open in Atlanta in March, if that's a thing at all.

Standard?

Yup. Standard on Saturday, Legacy on Sunday, and all the side events you could shake a stick at.

http://www.starcitygames.com/events/010 ... sheet.html

I think it is Standard, Khaos.

My third will be here around that time, so it's a no-go for me.

So, it's looking like March then.

Raida, you gonna be 21 by then?

I'll probably be here playing on Sunday, unless Born of the Gods makes Standard amazing again. (Not holding my breath.)

I'll be at the Atlanta event.

Mwahahaha, Alanta won't know what hit it...

But in March I wont be 21 sadly. Don't turn 21 until very end of May. But old enough to get into most bars, just not drink, so I'll be more then happy to watch y'all get shitfaced and then laugh my ass off.

It's on like Donkey Kong, gents. We're gonna burn Atlanta to the ground!

That is, if red's dick doesn't destroy Atlanta first.

It'll require the blood of three virgins, but I think I can keep it sedated.

3 virgins? We'll find that at a Magic tournament for sure.

Perhaps I should have been more specific...

*buh-dum-tish*

But yeah, Atlanta has been hit with a lot of shit in the past, dunno if what we could bring to bear would drop it... Though I'm not sure if it's ever had any encounters with a viking or a sentient schlong...

I'll ride that snake to Valhalla!

Waitaminute....that sounds gay. Well, when in Rome....or Atlanta ....
