40 ends too quickly

I play 40 card draft. 60 card constructed.

40 makes things much less interesting. It's too easy to just stick 4-of's in there.

I don't care, I'm posting this in 2 threads. I thought this picture came out fly.

I am afraid to See Lon's. I am sure his is scary. So Lon will you post yours? haha

Oh dude, that picture is nothing even close to pengpeng's collection!

I am sure those are just some 'special' ones that she keeps handy.

Peng is crazy, crazy amazing.

I always thought firebreathing/fling was a fun way to play... on a rabid wombat.

The imagery still tickles my fancy.

man i havn't played this game in like 6 years, but i do gotta say i got a lot of vintage from like '95 and '96.

might think about playing this again cause i went EB games and there is a card store right next to it and i watched the last like 10 minutes of a magic tourny and winner got a 50 dollar gift card. he bought a bunch packs and got a 12/12 in one. didnt know they made cards over 10/10 now thats kinda cool.

brinard · Post by **brinard** » 22 Sep 2007 20:07

theyve made much larger creatures for a while...

leviathan is probably what you mean by 1010 right>?

i think krosan colossus is a 1414 from legions i think, and theres denizen of the deep which is a portal 2nd age, rare.

im pretty sure those are the biggest, but i got out in 2004 or so...

ByrnsiE · Post by **ByrnsiE** » 22 Sep 2007 20:18

ya leviathan 10/10 was best when i used to play back in the day

saw there is a 9/16 or something like that

Burrin · Post by **Burrin** » 23 Sep 2007 16:38

Umm Serra Avatar can be the biggest I think. It's power is life points but I don't think that is the point of what you are getting at haha

Serra avatar pure pwnage if you know how to play it right.

ByrnsiE · Post by **ByrnsiE** » 23 Sep 2007 18:04

not 9/16... i mean 9/14 its ummm Autochthom Wurm... pretty kickass

and this card... wow its just godly look at mana cost!

Pengu · Post by **Pengu** » 24 Sep 2007 12:14

Phyrexian Dreadnought isn't really all that playable straight up, although I do own a playset of it.

If you have a 12/12 creature, but need to sacrifice creatures up to the power of 12, you might as well beat them up with your little beaters or a few fatties.

There's cute combos to do with it though. Reigns of Power comes to mind.

brinard · Post by **brinard** » 24 Sep 2007 13:38

man, i just remembered my favy deck from like 5 years ago.

volraths doppleganger

phyrexian dreadnought

and a discard method.

3 manacost 1212 with trample, like 3rd turn at most.

i had lots of stuff to make my hand work... scroll rack, tutors (demonic, or living wish)

and drawing mechanisms... stroke, etch

and some mill deck. i think i still have all the pieces, but not the deck itself.

laquatus
millstone
tolarian academy
traumatize
haunting echoes
cranial extraction
chephalid broker

man it was nasty. everyone hated me.

wish i had time/people/money to get back in...

but ive got better things to do

FNM is the best thing to do other than footbag
