When your friend complains about not topdecking the card he needed to win.
But, how is the draft environment?

"If only I'd drawn Avenger of Zendikar, Craterhoof Behemoth, and Tooth and Nail I would've won"

'I was at 1, drew into Read the Bones, couldn't cast it. My opponent had to kill my creature with Infernal Scarring or I'd win. So, it dies. If I draw into a card I can use to win the game (he doesn't even give an example) I can win.' Draws into Island.
Salt was real. If he'd have won that game he'd have gotten the Path Promo.

The draft is fun but not as enjoyable as ktk ktk ktk draft was.
Also i'm four cards away from finishing grixis delver. I'm so excited. i only need a Young Pyromancer, Terminate, and Kolaghan's Command
July 25, 2015 2:52 p.m.
I got a Terminate. It's yours if you have any Unglued tokens.

Ah, triple KTK.
That format was the bomb. You could literally play 4c and 3-0 drafts.

Ok,How do I do a fish on this? I tried on my fish deck, but it didn't work XD. Any great teachers of the arts of online fish?

Shoulda swapped em and titled it "Brimaz before and after Wrath of God."

First one is from Sandreline, second one is from Kevin altered. :)
Also got Elspeth, Knight-Errant altered by Kevin with gold sheets. :>
July 25, 2015 7:59 p.m.
I wanted my cradles altered that way but she said it would be too much work : /
Got the boarders extended and it looks amazing, but gotta say, first choice woulda been the stained glass look.

It took her quite some time, to say... But the result is so damn great. She's really super nice too :D

Just had to clean the whole kitchen because my sisters did a shitty job
Happy fucking birthday to me
July 26, 2015 2:09 p.m.
Sorry to hear about your kitchen situation. Happy Birthday though!

Happy birthday and all that jazz. So, who brought the cake?
July 26, 2015 3:12 p.m.
Wait, Tibs' birthday? WAUW!
In other news, any tips for being a Dungeon Master? I'm DMing the Tyranny of Dragons campaign starting today, and I'm probably gonna suck.

My tip is to not play tabletop RPGs, but that will likely be disregarded by a large majority of the community ;)
July 26, 2015 4:27 p.m.
Yeah. Don't let your players bully you haha. Generally games are more fun if you DONT let people break the game. It's no fun if you let the druid turn rocks into diamonds because then the next you thing you know the part has infinite money and owns the world. Remember that setting boundaries and limits breeds creativity.
Also - let your players do most of the work. Don't feel the need to jump in all the time. Silences are ok. Let people figure stuff out for themselves.

Well, guys, I finished my Tarmogoyf playset just now. Feelsgoodman.jpg.

Congrats NoPantsParade! I saw what your binder looks like, hell man I want a binder like that

Apricot. We're trying it out for the first time, this is the first year we've really had apricots on our trees.

@6tennis, my advice, make sure you know enough of everything before rushing in. I've been in many tabletop groups, and many of them failed because the DM wasn't ready yet, so make sure you are ready. Don't worry, I think you'll do great. ~high five~
My advice for your players, pretty much the same as many tabletop rpg players will say:
There are three important rules to playing this game:
1.) Don't piss off the DM.
2.) Don't piss off the DM.
And most importantly,
- 3.) Kill the caster.

Woow! Parade, High five for the play set of goyf, that is hard I bet, without excessive money of course.
Tib, spirit pie is delicious, I have it around every other year and it still tastes great.
Tennis, my advice, is try to stick a rat on an arrow, light it on fire, then shoot it at a person. That is the most fun xp. But really, try to be imaginative in the most incense way possible, such as the way I described, or try to climb a zombie giant to decapitate it's head to throw at the nexromancer. Good luck:)

Got KMC Hyper Mattes on Friday, they're on my Kaalia deck now and holy fuck 20/10 would recommend
July 26, 2015 6:54 p.m.
Those are the sleeves I plan on using tibs! Good to hear the 20/10 LOL
July 26, 2015 6:57 p.m.
ThisIsBullshit says... #42
Hell yeah, if it's $850 I'm gonna double sleeve it lol
July 26, 2015 7:20 p.m.
ItchiUchiha117 says... #43
I should probably double sleeve all of my decks. Especially Ghave. I need to get on that shit.

I've recently had some bad experiences with KMC hyper mats, I mash shufle and I have gotten a split in every match I've played with my amulet bloom deck. Put on dragonshield mattes? No splits yet.
July 26, 2015 7:44 p.m.
ThisIsBullshit says... #45
I haven't tried Dragonshield Mattes yet, but I hear they're good.
July 26, 2015 9:09 p.m.
ABadMagicPlayer100 says... #46
I buy the UltraPro ones with the art on them, because I only sleeve decks to protect the one valuable card. I'm too budget for anything competitive. Never once completed a Standard deck before it rotated.

NoPantsParade says... #47
Didn't see it was your birthday, Tibs. Happy birthday! Also the Mage looked great by the way.

DS Mattes are sooo much better than KMC. Same problem as you Noises.
