Re: Reanimation (5 replies, posted in Decks and Deckbuilding)
I do like cloudshift, It seems like it could very nice as everything has etb triggers, (i wish resto didnt have the non-angel clause ). There are a few issues I can see with it but Im certianly going to try 1-2 if not all 4 in main deck, good call!
While I like the thought of the cage breakers Im not 100% sure, I think I like them in sideboard against control, that way theyll focus on my unburial rites until I put out an uncounterable game winner, main deck Im not sure of because its just a somewhat decent body after my combo goes off.
Mentor of the meek is an interesting option, I just dont see what I would cut for it, sure the card draw could be really nice but the deck is going to be pushing the limits as it stands and so Im not sure I can afford to put any in slots, eapecially something thats so weak to removal and doesnt have an etb ability.

Topic: Reanimation (5 replies, posted in Decks and Deckbuilding)
So I've got yet another deck Idea for standard, Angel of Glory's Rise seems too good not to be abusable, and I think that the key to the combo is going to be using it similarly to Scapeshift, meaning I want to put particular humans in the yard, specifically Kessig Malcontents and Champion of the Parish. Part of the key to the deck is gaining enough life to give you time to resolve an Angel of Glory's Rise, there are 11 different life gain cards in the main deck, Cathedral Sanctifiers, Huntmasters, and Gnaw to the Bone(s). I think that using a self-mill/reanimator deck seems to be the strongest strategy. This is because if you get only 2ish Kessig Malcontents at once they can get lethal or nearly lethal very quickly. Disciple of Bolas offers a way to reuse the Angels or the Malcontents or just give you the life + cards you need to survive a little longer.
Another strength is how easy it is for your humans to die so they can be reanimated over and over, this way their enter the battlefield abilities can go off over and over.
Any thoughts? http://deckbox.org/sets/272979

Re: dumb Question about centaur healer. (2 replies, posted in General Discussion)
So Say you play one centaur healer and get 3+ in life. Do you gain 6 life when you play a second Centaur healer because the card says "When Centaur healer enters the battlefeild, you gain 3 life." so would that work?
No, when a card says it's own name it refers to its self specifically, if you could gain 6 life it would read "Whenever centaur healer or another creature named centaur healer enters the battlefield you gain 3 life"
It's a weird rule and the wording on cards isn't very clear but that's the way it's been explained to me

Topic: Gravecrawler Machine Gun (0 replies, posted in Decks and Deckbuilding)
So after seeing Sam Black's Legacy Zombie Bombardment deck I've been thinking of ideas that would allow me to use Gravecrawler as a Machine Gun in a standard deck. The most obvious cards to include are Blood Artist and Diregraf Captain, I'm trying to work together a build that works, to me it makes the most sense to have a self-mill deck that uses Havengul Lich and Unburial Rites to get stuff back. The lich is a little strange for a deck like this because usually you want to use unburial rites to get stuff that's too big to hardcast, however with a lich out you can get Blood Artists and Diregraf Captains out of the yard. The Grimgrin, Corpse-Borns mainly a free sac outlet to feed the machine gun effect, the rest is just to get the combo active, Thragtusk is mostly cause it's such a powerhouse and I've got a couple sitting around, the Troll is a wall that can be a win condition by its self, what are people's thoughts? I'm keeping x4 Negate in sideboard to protect against Rest in Peace and the Grafdigger's cages, same with nevermore, I'm currently using Forbidden Alchemy rather than Mulch because I often prefer paying one extra and having the chance to keep my Liliana rather than a land or two.

What do we think? Is it viable and do people like the combo?

Re: [Modern] [Opinions] Krenko's Dance Party (revisited) (9 replies, posted in Decks and Deckbuilding)
Help me understand why Goblin Guide is so valuable. Why would I want to give my opponent extra land? Is it simply so you might see the next card coming off the top?
Well it's an unchallenged aggro card, it's extremely hard for control decks to handle since you can't easily counter it, you also have a strong body for virtually nothing, sure they might be able to get a card or two but you can see what's coming up for the most part. Goblins are extremely aggressive and it's one of the strongest goblins around, along with Warren Instigator another card worth considering, also if you're going to drop for Arid Mesas you should also try for a couple Blood Crypts to pull in some strong goblin cards like Fodder Launch and Mad Auntie if you pull in the Warren Instigator it's worth Siege-Gang Commander, consider dropping Instigator t2, hit on t3 then drop a Krenko + Siege Gang off the attack and cast a Goblin Cheiftan, now Krenko has haste and have at least 7 goblins on the field for Krenko to create a whole swarm of now 2/2 goblins, that's pretty aggro

Re: Creep and Conquer (4 replies, posted in General Discussion)
The Golgari Event Deck was MSRP for I think closer to $20 and have gone like hotcakes because everyone recognizes that there are more than $70 worth of cards in there. To that end if you scored some for $12, you just made out like a bandit my friend. I'd even recommend going back and getting more as the Thragtusk alone is worth more than the price you paid and you should be able to move them without any trouble.
Oh I cleared them out the instant they said they were 12$

Topic: Creep and Conquer (4 replies, posted in General Discussion)
So I just went to my LGS and they had the RTR Event Deck, Creep and Conquer for 12$ each, the list is right here, http://www.wizards.com/magic/magazine/a rcana/1071 notably each contains a Thragtusk, Woodland Cemetary, and a Wolfir Silverheart. I asked the guy if he was sure the price was right, knowing that it was worth way more than that, and he said it was correct, is it that cheap at other people's LGS's or did I just luck out?

Re: [Modern] [Opinions] Krenko's Dance Party (revisited) (9 replies, posted in Decks and Deckbuilding)
Well I'm not sure how much help I'll be in this particular instance because most of the modern I play is quite competitive but here's some more pricey thoughts: Blood Moon, while it may seem bad to lose your Valkut or Cavern think about facing shocklands/fetchlands you could easilly hose people's entire mana bases.
It's also worth noting that Goblin Guide has a significant price tag for a reason, those guys can carry games all on their own, Searing Blaze can also be a powerhouse, 2 lightning bolts stapled together. I'd also say that Bloodmark Mentor is phenomenal in a deck like this, dynacharge with Bloodmark can be a one sided board wipe under the right circumstances another thing that you can consider if you really want to ramp up this deck is that many Mono-Color decks in Modern actually still use Zendikar fetches (Arid Mesa) so that you can thin out your deck (Draw less lands late-game)
Hope something in here helped!

Re: Would this work? (16 replies, posted in Decks and Deckbuilding)
I don't have a lot of time to dig for stuff but right off the bat Jin-Gitaxias seems like a good fit in this deck, and I'm surprised no one has mentioned Blightning, other cards to fill everyone's hand include Font of Mythos, Temple Bell (Has the additional benefit of being instant speed so you can activate it during your opponent's turn during their end phase before they discard.) and finally Otherworld Atlas, these in concert can be a powerhouse, if you like this idea Psychosis Crawler is an absolute house, you smash each opponent for like 5-6 per turn just during your Draw Step, you can also include Venser's Journal/Ivory Tower for life gain in this strategy.
