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

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

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

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.
