Nicol Bolas is rubbish. UWRb gets to run all the good cards. Everyone knows green is shit.

JexInfinite: Green is so bad that they banned Birthing Pod because of how bad it was :P

March 11, 2015 2:18 a.m.

VampireArmy says... #9

They banned Green Sun's Zenith before that haha. Should have heard the upraor

March 11, 2015 2:28 a.m.

JexInfinite says... #10

enpc Yeah, and they brought back delve, because Tarmogoyf is so bad that nobody would care that it got slightly nerfed.

VampireArmy

Me likey~

Though your front page suffers a bit. But not much can be done there.

Femme_Fatale Finally a name to fit a hordemate such as myself :3

March 11, 2015 2:30 a.m.

enpc says... #13

Goyfs 5-8 go! And if you wanted to , you could totally build a Gifts Ungiven control deck :P You'd lose out on Eternal Witness but it could be really interesting :D

March 11, 2015 2:30 a.m.

JexInfinite says... #14

Nobody runs Eternal Witness or Abrupt Decay anyway. What terrible cards. It's not like they make the deck better.

March 11, 2015 2:32 a.m.

VampireArmy says... #15

JexInfinite I'm gonna borrow that list....for science

March 11, 2015 2:33 a.m.

enpc says... #16

Or Maelstrom Pulse. Three terrible cards. That being said, if you could get ti to work it would be one hell of a take on the typical gifts deck.

March 11, 2015 2:34 a.m.

JexInfinite says... #17

VampireArmy Of course you are. It's the most upvoted Jeskai style control deck for a reason. It's because I spammed deckcycle a LOT of times.

March 11, 2015 2:36 a.m.

JexInfinite says... #18

Yeah, all those plebs running Scapeshift decks must be really thick. Everyone knows green isn't playable, especially that Primeval Titan waste of a mythic.

March 11, 2015 2:37 a.m.

enpc says... #20

JexInfinite: with your control deck, do you actually get any benefit from Valorous Stance over another Path to Exile? Most ofthe time it feels like that card would get played as a kill spell and wouldn't path just be the better option?

March 11, 2015 2:41 a.m.

CuteSnail says... #21

I assume this is modern? Is gifts played in legacy?

March 11, 2015 2:43 a.m.

JexInfinite says... #22

enpc Path is a nonbo with Mana Leak. I like both the cards, so I play both. Valorous Stance also happens to kill everything Lightning Bolt can't, as well as add more removal for problem creatures.

Lightning Bolt doesn't kill everything. Path to Exile is sometimes bad. Valorous Stance just kills so much. If I need to protect a creature from removal (I usually don't) it works there, too. I've won a few games by protecting a Batterskull'd Snapcaster Mage from stupid kill spells.

The main thing is that you get a choice. Choices are awesome.

JWiley129 says... #23

VampireArmy - I guess you give them the 2 creatures?

March 11, 2015 2:54 a.m.

VampireArmy says... #24

JWiley129 was a joke....but yes haha

March 11, 2015 2:55 a.m.

Mine? The page that is.

March 11, 2015 2:56 a.m.

JexInfinite says... #26

No, screw you -x-Juuzou-x-x-, and your awesome stitches.

March 11, 2015 3:12 a.m.

bijschjdbcd says... #27

Yes, I agree that the UWR shell splashing black for souls is the best shell in modern at the moment.

I don't like Valorous Stance but whatever floats ya boat I suppose.

March 11, 2015 4:58 a.m.

Femme_Fatale says... #28

I can confirm Valorous Stance powerhouse. Kills almost all of Abzan's shenanigans. Kills Tron creatures. Kills Deceiver Exarch. And in the moments that it is dead as a creature removal spell, it is now a targeted removal counterspell.

March 11, 2015 5:13 a.m.

bijschjdbcd says... #29

Doesn't make it worth it.

March 11, 2015 5:26 a.m.

JexInfinite says... #30

The only reason to run Path is because it's cheap, and kills problem creatures like Voice of Resurgence and Kitchen Finks. (Those aren't really that bad anyway.)

Valorous Stance gets better as the game goes on, when we have heaps of mana, and get to bluff Cryptic. The Path + Mana Leak nonbo is annoying, but we don't have Swords to Plowshares.

March 11, 2015 5:36 a.m.

Femme_Fatale says... #31

So I've been using the @font-face shenanigans and I'm nearly there. I got it working through html now I just need it to transfer to my username.

(Image, because can't use link tags here).

However, that font is really hard to read. I'll probably stick to my default font, and just use this for reference and for other people. I at least have been able to get cross browser support, something that just a truetype (.tff) file won't do.

March 11, 2015 5:42 a.m.

JexInfinite says... #32

Femme_Fatale Is that a default font? I would very much like to use Beleren if possible if custom fonts work.

March 11, 2015 5:45 a.m.

Femme_Fatale says... #33

I figured it out! I figured out T/O's trick! VICTORY IS MINE!!!

Well. It will be if I can stop this ugly FAUT from flickering my text again and again.

March 11, 2015 5:54 a.m.

Femme_Fatale says... #34

That is not a default font JexInfinite, but I can make it so that everyone can see it, regardless of browser. It just takes a bit of effort. (6 hours of work so far, considering I had no knowledge of what to do at the start of this, I think I achieved quite a lot).

Here's to hoping I don't break T/O.

March 11, 2015 5:56 a.m.

bijschjdbcd says... #35

Oh the card is undeniably good but I still dont like it, Preference.

I'm going to have A LOT of fun with this!

Hellsing & Blind_Guardian, I'm having a lot of fun with my new found knowledge. I can put images in my name!

March 11, 2015 6:02 a.m.

Femme_Fatale says... #38

Okay, back to hearts. I'm gonna have to do some fiddling with the heart size and shading around it.

Femme_Fatale.

Spread the love!

March 11, 2015 6:12 a.m.

Femme_Fatale says... #41

While I'm at it, everyone can see the fonts on those right?

March 11, 2015 6:15 a.m.

quesobueno123 says... #42

I can.

March 11, 2015 6:16 a.m.

Femme_Fatale says... #43

I think that this is much easier to read if I stick hearts or spaces inbetween the letters. Not so scrunched together. I probably won't be sticking hearts inbetween the letters as that causes visual problems. Just the ends, and maybe the middle.

Femme_Fatale

March 11, 2015 6:18 a.m.

Femme_Fatale says... #44

Back to my original font. Much easier to read. Now on the hunt for a more elegant font that is available in .tff, .eot, .wuff, and .svg

March 11, 2015 6:35 a.m.

JexInfinite says... #45

I'm seeing that. Now I need to commission you to do it for my name. If I change the font, will I also need to change my fancy stuff code? I can't remember what I did for it.

March 11, 2015 6:48 a.m.

Femme_Fatale says... #46

Nope, those can all be done.

I want to mention that fonts can at times be very heavy on load times. I'm noticing quite a bit of load times on my name, and animated images start to really heavily lag in places that contain the fire animation that Hellsing and Blind_Guardian have made.

I'm tempted to put a restriction of font usage like this, because of the loading times it can cause.
