VampireArmy A walker with a lore as freaking awesome as Tibalt's needs a better card.
I DID find the only deck that Tibalt fits in and is good though.....

Double sleeving my token deck. I figured since I went and bought lilianas I might as well go to the trouble of protecting them properly.

Derp, those are the two expeditions with the best art imo. Frame them, then sell them in 20 years when they're worth as much as a Black Lotus.

I don't actually rage often but when I do it's because of this shit.
For context:
He attacks with a 6/5 trample
I rally back a voice and block with it and a now 5/5 elemental
He plays Vines of Vastwood with kick, guy is now a 10/9
I do the damage as normal, my dudes die i take the remaining
he claims he's not killing my voice and dealing 5 to me instead. The fuck?
VampireArmy points from his Voice of Resurgence to FoxFacez's Leatherback Baloth.
FoxFacez taps Forest.
FoxFacez taps Treetop Village.
FoxFacez plays Vines of Vastwood from his hand.
FoxFacez points from his Vines of Vastwood to his Leatherback Baloth.
VampireArmy sets counter life to 12 (-1).
VampireArmy sets counter life to 11 (-1).
VampireArmy sets counter life to 10 (-1).
VampireArmy puts Voice of Resurgence from play into his graveyard.
[11:42:40] FoxFacez: wait
VampireArmy sets PT of Elemental to 4/4.
[11:42:46] FoxFacez: i don't kill voice
VampireArmy puts Voice of Resurgence into play from his graveyard.
[11:42:52] FoxFacez: i assign damage all to elementaland the rest at you
[11:43:03] VampireArmy: er....what?
[11:43:07] FoxFacez: yep
[11:43:16] VampireArmy: there are two blockersso you would need to assign them first?
[11:43:28] FoxFacez: who cares? i decide the damage and order
[11:43:54] VampireArmy: what do you mean who cares?
[11:43:57] FoxFacez: it's 5 at elemntal and 4 to you voice gives me 2 at my creature and elemental 5
[11:44:26] VampireArmy: dude you literlly dont know how to play do you?
When a creature with Trample is blocked it must divide it's attack dealing enough lethal damage to one blocker to move to the next blocker and so on. When all blockers have been dealt lethal damage the attacking creature deals the remainder of it's attack the the defending player/planeswalker, in this case only 2 damage would trample over.
[11:45:14] FoxFacez: that is your mistake
[11:45:17] VampireArmy: http://tappedout.net/mtg-questions/how-does-trample-damage-work-will-multiple-blockers/
[11:45:23] FoxFacez: it doesn't have to i can assign
the damage myselfThe controller of an attacking creature with trample first assigns damage to the creature(s) blocking it.
i already told you how i assign it
[11:46:20] VampireArmy: When all blockers have been dealt lethal damage the attacking creature deals the remainder of it's attack the the defending player/planeswalke
you are willfully ignoring the rules
[11:46:43] FoxFacez: "when" i played on mtgo
[11:46:52] VampireArmy: "lethal"
[11:46:54] FoxFacez: i could assign manually the damage value
[11:47:16] VampireArmy: so you would deal 4 to the elemtal, 2 to voice and the rest me no matter what, they both die dude
[11:47:35] FoxFacez: whatever kFoxFacez puts Vines of Vastwood from the stack into his graveyard.
[11:47:45] VampireArmy: no on second thought, blocked dont change the rules when youre losing
[11:47:58] FoxFacez: "losing" ahaha i'm winning
FoxFacez has left the game.

It is pretty tough trying to get opinions on here these days.
Tried deckcycling, making a thread, and posting here 3 times. Anyone have any other ideas?
November 2, 2015 2:10 p.m.
Didgeridooda says... #25
2 things I have not tried lol.
You see that kind of behavior online a bit more often then in person. I really don't like that sort of attitude. That is not what I play the game.

Femme_Fatale says... #26
Feature queue and make detailed threads.
That and know your format a lot. Most of the time when I have my deck featured it is already done, and it takes a fair amount of debating in order for me to implement a card.
Do you know how many people think I'm stupid for not putting in Boros Charm in The Monks of Self Identity? I keep telling them in no way in hell will that work, but they won't listen.

Ohthenoises says... #27
VampireArmy what platform are you playing on? I currently prefer Xmage and I have some modern stuff I want to test
November 2, 2015 3:33 p.m.
Didgeridooda says... #28
I don't want tons of help on a deck. I just want to know if people think it is just a little better then a precon. I made some decks that I thought were dumbed down, but want to get an outside opinion.
November 2, 2015 3:37 p.m.
VampireArmy says... #29
Ohthenoises trice. Xmage would never install for me. I dunno why

I am about to go to a few new shops, and wanted to know if you guys would consider Shattergang start a 25% deck? Not really looking for suggestions, just trying to build to a lower then usual power level. Looking for just higher then a precon.

It's like 25% of the way to being fully optimised and cutthroat. Essentially that means its more casual than competitive but can do some good stuff.

I looked at this image ...
and the first thing I thought of was ...
CLEAVAGE!
And then I looked at the rules text and was like ... MOTHER OF GOD. Never before have I seen such a long reminder text.

What ChiefBell said.
SOme of the older decks I made have made people say they were OP even though I tried to tone them down pretty heavily.

Ohthenoises says... #38
Can we talk about how stupid Blade of Selves is with ETBs? Specifically decks like Trostani, Selesnya's Voice with Serra Avatar 200 life gained seems a bit much. (If mana is up with population on the attack and a 240/240 going at every player assuming 4 player pod and 40 life starting.)

It's juicy for sure. Haven't played commander in a long while. If the karlov creature grabs my interest I'll get back in
November 2, 2015 11:08 p.m.

Also, 116 life from Rhox Faithmender seems a bit nasty.
Thragtusk, Armada Wurm, etc.

ABadMagicPlayer100 says... #42
Ohthenoises, Holy shit. I am now very glad I don't play commander often. That would get abused so hard by all of the jank players...
November 2, 2015 11:11 p.m.
Ohthenoises says... #43
I'm not even going to start on putting it on things like Gray Merchant of Asphodel, Fanatic of Mogis, or other nasties like Inferno Titan, Grave Titan, and Sun Titan. (Yes the on attack triggers wont trigger on the copies but the on etb ones will.)

I was just called a pussy for having a mental illness. By my own mother. I don't think I've ever experienced quite this much hatred before.

@ItchiUchiha117 wow. just... jsut wow.

I mean..... uggg by your mom? not only is thaat fucked up, its also stupid. and dumb. I mean, a retard at least would make sense, but a pussy....
thats dumb and stupid and mean and sad and I'm sorry
November 3, 2015 12:14 a.m.
My brother suffers from a severe mental illness. I understand how badly that would enrage you. Keep your head up; people can be cruel and stupid.

VampireArmy says... #48
Well you know what? Pussys are awesome. They're either an extremely durable organ that can stretch beyond imagination yet retain thier natural shape or they're adorable cats that purr and do random hilarious shit.
November 3, 2015 12:31 a.m.
Hey, ItchiUchiha117, some people are just really, really, really ignorant. And/or stupid, take your pick. I have severe OCD, doesn't make me a pussy. I think you are a brave, strong person if you have a mental illness and still manage life.
November 3, 2015 12:39 a.m.
ItchiUchiha117 says... #50
I'm apparently a pussy because I fear what may happen if my illness were allowed to run rampant. I suffer from a severe case of psychosis, presented in the form of five voices in my head. I was writing on a job application and it came to a question asking if I had any mental or physical illnesses that would affect my work. I agonized over this for a brief period of time during which my mother started ranting that I shouldn't answer yes to that or I'd be branded as a freak with that stigma for the rest of my life. I asked her to not get so angry about it and she began to scream things along the lines of "get the fuck out of my house" and "you and your brother are such pussies." My brother suffers from various other issues, most notably some severe anxiety issues.
This was after spending four and a half hours in my car, driving my brother and friend into Seattle to drop them off at a concert and come back. I am tired and in pain. I am no longer in my right state of mind. I may go away for a while. I will be back, though. Don't worry.
