Just checked my mail and my Moat also came in today, here are some pics.
Looks pretty damn good for lightly played. Little indent on the back and that's really it. Only cost $220 as well

kyuuri117 Moat buddies! I'm gonna get the Bazaar of Baghdad signed when it comes. I'm sure I can contact Menges somehow.

draw 2 discard 3. Do people use this often in vintage? I've not ever seen it used
April 29, 2015 12:04 a.m.
VA, it is the main enabler of Vintage dredge. Any hand + Bazaar of Baghdad is a good hand and usually a turn two or three win.
April 29, 2015 12:06 a.m.
Fixed. Just deleted a part of the url that you messed up.

My brother and I are working on an essay together. We have to pull an all nighter to get it done. I am armed with 5 hour energy; he with coffee and ice cream. Bring it on.
April 29, 2015 12:13 a.m.
I think I'm going to stay up and read One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.

So speaking of energy drinks, does anyone watch Shark Tank? If you are unfamiliar, it's a show where people bring their inventions and business plans in front of like five multi-millionaires and try and get them to fund/buy their stuff.
Anyway, a while ago this Marine was on the show. As some background, he explained that he was a sniper, and as such had to sit or lay down in areas for very, very long periods of time while needing to keep alert. However, every single energy drink on the market, be it 5 hour energy or red bull, caused a crash and jitters. Well, you really cant be crashing or having jitters when you are trying to do your job as a sniper. So he and some buddies decided to come up with an energy drink that, well, doesn't make you crash or make you twitchy. They brought it to the Shark Tank guys and they loved it. It's on amazon, here's a link
I've actually had em, my dad ordered a box. They taste kinda nasty but they work well and you don't crash.

I've never bothered with energy drinks. I've only ever gone as far as a cup of coffee or two during work.

Coffee is gas.
Never really like energy drinks, They taste blergh.
April 29, 2015 12:25 a.m.
Well then... Im brewing me some Hawaiian grown gas water right now. :3
Maybe this afternoon of not setting things on fire isnt wasted afterall!
April 29, 2015 12:28 a.m.
HOLY SHIT THE 5 HOUR ENERGY WORKS I CAN FLY TO THE MOON AND I AM BOUNCING OFF THE WALLS AND IS THAT A SQUIRREL. This is actually an accurate representation of me right now. Jesus this stuff works.

@xzzane - I'll do the paper for an Emrakul, the Aeons Torn. :/
Coffee is life. I would not function or exist without that wondrous nectar of the gods.

I adore how these guys make such a beautiful blend of insanity and sense in each of their songs. They have also told one story through several albums...you could connect them together and make a seriously good movie c:
April 29, 2015 12:53 a.m.
Going through the last few pages has confirmed what I've suspected since I first started following these threads...I first started playing this game before half of you were born. Way to make a guy feel old lol.

Hey VA, was lookin through my binder and came across Blood Baron. Think that would be a good sideboard card in your Mardu deck? Seems like it would wreck Abzan, sans lili -2
April 29, 2015 1:11 a.m.
VampireArmy says... #38
I considered it but Stormbreath Dragon gets the spot mainboard for having flying and conditionally punishing the mcshit out of people hoarding cards in hand.
I could hypothetically replace Olivia Voldaren in the sideboard with him though...I'm unsure. Normally I can use her vs tron and affinity :
Tron : Steal Wurmcoils
Affinity : Ping the little x/1s forever
so I'm not sure...

Just got into contact with one of the B/W token primer authors at mtgsalvation. Looking forward to discussing with him about our respective primers, and any ways I can improve mine.
April 29, 2015 1:16 a.m.
Do you really need rakdos charm? You have a good amount of other artifact hate in the deck. I guess it could finish off a token deck if you've already tossed a good amount of burn at em, and it's not like dredge is really a thing in modern. Maybe try blood baron out in that slot.

Multiuse really
storm uses the yard and people i'm aggressive enough against twin most of the time that i can threaten to kill them in response them going off. The smash artifact is nice for redundancy mostly

bell you're literally only a short years older :P you have babyface
April 29, 2015 3:29 a.m.
I look very very young. That is true. Being 22 and being through university and having a job and going through a lot of personal stuff makes a MASSIVE difference.
