i think they named vintage and legacy when they split them off from each other a while back but the names took a while to stick

i would def be up for some innistrad on cockatrice btw, either block constructed or sealed (i'll look for a good sealed generator)

this one time I was playing in a local tournament (I was ~9) and actually doing really well and then the guy who I was playing against, who would talk to me about how did he heroin and was and sorta off the hinge, claimed that the thawing glaciers in my deck wasn't allowed in type 2 and for some reason we looked it up and it looked like it was banned? so I was disqualified. but then when I got home I looked it up again and it was only banned in type 1.5 for some reason. anyway...tragic childhood memory.

i got a spirit of the night in my first mirage booster and i was like completely overjoyed, and then someone stole it at school a few days later. i never did figure out who
― smh, Friday, 16 December 2011 03:05 (twelve years ago) link
man it is eerie how many specific booster backs I can remember opening, I should write an 'a la recherche du temps perdu' type book about my childhood and mtg

i'm reading about recent vintage tournament decks now. these things are wacky.
― cad, Friday, 16 December 2011 03:21 (twelve years ago) link
it seems like it's badass power blue deck w/ every good card ever vs badass power blue deck w/ every good card ever vs. badass power blue deck w/ every good card ever
― iatee, Friday, 16 December 2011 03:22 (twelve years ago) link
i'm down for some type 2 if anyones got it. i have a good deck built that's almost block but it has some m12 in it. otherwise i can just sub the cards out

there's also badass artifact deck with Mishra's Workshop but i think even those play the good blue cards
― smh, Friday, 16 December 2011 03:25 (twelve years ago) link
oh i guess not, no ancestral in herehttp://www.wizards.com/magic/magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/deck/773
seeing Slash Panther, a card which was ignored in every other format except draft, in a vintage deck is funny but i guess it's the most aggressive creature that's easy to cast off a workshop
― smh, Friday, 16 December 2011 03:28 (twelve years ago) link
hah i like that deck a lot
― cad, Friday, 16 December 2011 03:35 (twelve years ago) link
ok http://www.magicdraftsim.com/ has a sealed deck simulator, just set to 6 Innistrad packs and it should give you a cardpool and a little interface to deckbuild, and there's an export button that puts it in a text format that you can paste into cockatrice's deck editor

oh! hey man. i don't remember you posting on the magic thread there but otherwise i was like "who is this guy who is posting on a lot of the threads i'm posting on?"
― cad, Friday, 16 December 2011 03:49 (twelve years ago) link
yeah i just got back into magic this past year mostly and the reg ilx version of this thread's been dead a while
― smh, Friday, 16 December 2011 03:52 (twelve years ago) link
yeah last time thread was active ppl were using mws which was a complete pain in the ass to get working (on mac at least). i'm loving cockatrice tho
― cad, Friday, 16 December 2011 03:55 (twelve years ago) link
cockatrice is pretty perfect outside the terrible deck construction options
― Mordy, Friday, 16 December 2011 03:55 (twelve years ago) link
ya mws had great deck construction options and a sealed deck generator but would crash all the time and would have the weirdest impossible to fix bugs
― iatee, Friday, 16 December 2011 03:57 (twelve years ago) link
it's disappointing that they couldn't build a better deck construction side of this, you wouldn't even think that would be so difficult? it's mostly just organizing already-organized data....
― iatee, Friday, 16 December 2011 03:58 (twelve years ago) link
yeah i agree it's just sorting a database
― cad, Friday, 16 December 2011 03:59 (twelve years ago) link
yeah hopefully it's in the works, cockatrice is fairly new still
― smh, Friday, 16 December 2011 04:01 (twelve years ago) link
iatee just got home if youre still around im up for a game or two
― є(٥_ ٥)э, Friday, 16 December 2011 05:20 (twelve years ago) link

haha yeah it was def fun
I'm prob gonna be out of the game for a while cause my gf's on vacation and I have to spend time w/ her instead of playing a card game online w/ strangers. but luckily - her vacation isn't that long.
― iatee, Saturday, 17 December 2011 02:09 (twelve years ago) link
haha 'have to'... cant wait till im off for winter break tho ugh

(cough)
anyone want to play tonight
― iatee, Sunday, 1 January 2012 21:26 (twelve years ago) link
i have recently tried playing more mtg, after finding a stash of old cards in my game cabinet. they are all from 1997 or before; i played with a bunch of dudes who had all these new cards and i couldn't quite understand what any of them did.
that being said i remember being able to really fuck people up really quickly with black decks.
