Hmm, good point. Will try to do that then!

It's going to involve a lot of cards I normally discount as being too situational.

That's the point!

you removed all 4 naturalizes because it annoyed you drawing them and not needing them. sideboard them all!

Ha ha! There are only four creatures in the history of magic that have plainswalk!

I'm not sure why. Tradition, perhaps!

Wouldn't it be easy to walk across plains?

rufus sparkfire · « **Reply #2353 on:** March 28, 2013, 09:38:52 PM »

You'd think, but apparently not.

Anyway, I've made a deck with a sideboard.

Kamigawa sealed: so hard to believe that all the cards really are that bad!

Actually, I had the red ghost dragon and a weird green ghost legend that boosted everyone else. So actually I had good cards!

Siberius · « **Reply #2354 on:** March 29, 2013, 12:06:14 AM »

I don't like kamigowa. Too many weird rules and weird looking cards... And everything is legendary. Barney would love it.

I like it! althought some of the art is super weird.

Collection of candles with feet. Vomiting flowers.

Weird!

Very! But spirit decks re so much fun!

Finlay · « **Reply #2358 on:** March 29, 2013, 03:25:22 PM »

What's the poiont of this?

phillyt · « **Reply #2359 on:** March 29, 2013, 03:28:05 PM »

Cheap 4/4 flier. There were some kamigawa cards that added counters to good cards and had bad effects. Likewise, he is a decent spirit and the spirit decks could be really nasty. But he is certainly not a stellar card.

Poor Chisei. He just want's to help!

Finlay · « **Reply #2361 on:** March 29, 2013, 03:36:16 PM »

I hate him! he sucks ass.

Ok, lots of Kami cards which buff you if you have lots of cards in hand- what are the methods of doing so in kami?

phillyt · « **Reply #2362 on:** March 29, 2013, 03:38:51 PM »

There were a lot of cards that used spirits in your hand or graveyard or play, plus many that triggered off arcane cards. In both cases there was decent symetry, but spirit decks were never the top shelf stuff from the block.

Not casting any spells!

Finlay · « **Reply #2364 on:** March 29, 2013, 03:49:23 PM »

kodama's reach finds a land. there are a bunch of blue "draw card" spells.
But the ones I've seen which buff for big hands are white!

I'll make a few decks anyway, and as we learn the block more hopefully make them better.

Excited!

phillyt · « **Reply #2365 on:** March 29, 2013, 03:51:04 PM »

Oh are you guys on a kamigawa block kick?

Siberius · « **Reply #2366 on:** March 29, 2013, 06:14:20 PM »

Are you doing theae sealed or are you just making kami decks?

Either way I might just play normal games, I am going to have a rufusesque refusal to look at kami.

Finlay · « **Reply #2367 on:** March 29, 2013, 07:31:01 PM »

sealed and kami constructed¬

That is totally unreasonable!

The Kamigawa flip cards are horrible to look at:

Messy! The double-sided Innistrad ones are so much better.

Yeh, I haven't seen the inni flip cards in real life but they look like they'd be really nice. Never got my head round the kami ones. Have you guys actually played any games yet? Is it fun?

rufus sparkfire · « **Reply #2370 on:** March 29, 2013, 10:30:54 PM »

Playing sealed now!

It's OK!

phillyt · « **Reply #2371 on:** March 29, 2013, 11:47:27 PM »

The innistrad ones SUCKKKKKKKK

Think of it this way: Either you need two of every one of them (or more if you play multiples of them) or you need to pull them from your sleeves and turn them around physically every damn time you want to use them!

Ask Towni, he will back me up!

Siberius · « **Reply #2372 on:** March 30, 2013, 12:12:06 AM »

But do they look lovely?

rufus sparkfire · « **Reply #2373 on:** March 30, 2013, 12:16:16 AM »

Phil:

Transparent card sleeves. Done!

That's what I do. It's fine. They are amazing, and in fact you suck.

QFT. Or just use the card with the tick boxes in your sleeve and have the real card in a stack off to the side.
