  • [Contraption Joke]

No no, those are Scars or Mirrodin rumors! :D
  • The word "artifact" was not purposely omitted from the type  line of Walking Atlas

Actually, we think you did it on accident because of  the templating change in RoE.

... wait what day is it? Also, the CotD is yesterday's card. You should make it Enter the Dungeon with an M11 expansion symbol.

I, um, don't get it. There has to be a deeper meaning or a hidden truth there.  Or not. Maybe THAT's the joke. There is no joke.

3/5 = 3 hits in the orb

Catoblepas = 2 hits in the orb! OMG! OMG!

I just sent them a story about my dog. They'll probably reply with a "copy of Baneslayer Angel", which will be a link to the Gatherer page. But it's worth a shot.

That made me laugh. XD Almost as funny as the arcana itself, now that was hilarious. =D

''There is no secret connection between Ravnica's Gruul Clans and  Zendikar's Guul Draz vampires. Or is there? No, there isn't. (Maybe.)''
Right...

''Zooming in on a high-resolution version of the art of Emrakul, the Aeons  Torn will not reveal that Emrakul is drinking a delicious Pepsi. Mmmm,  Pepsi.''
D'aawww... Seriously?

''In the event of an emergency, Rise of the Eldrazi cannot be used  as a flotation device.''
Now that's  a joke. It's seriously (probably) possible!

That's the first tiome they haven't done something completely over the top for apriol fools. There might be 1 or 2 in there that are actually true (or false).

Funny story:
InQuest Magazine (I think it was InQuest) had an oversized Chaos Orb which I totally rooked someone into allowing into a (non-sanctioned) game. 
I had a proxy card that was a Mountain with "Chaos Orb" written on it. When I played it, my opponent cried foul:

Him: "WTF? a Proxy? no-one said anything about Proxies. Do you even own an actual Chaos Orb?"
Me: "Yes, but I thought it would be better to use a Proxy." 
Him: "No way. If you're going to put a Chaos Orb in your deck you have to use your actual Chaos Orb."
Me: "*Sigh*. Okay."

I pulled out this huge Chaos Orb and placed it on the table. He tried to cry foul again but everyone else said he insisted I use my actual Chaos Orb and that was my actual Chaos Orb. I used it, flipped it and wiped most of his board.

Unsurprisingly, that only worked once and only because everyone present thought it was hilarious.


My DM on Battleminds:

no, see i can kill defenders, but 8 consecutive crits on a battlemind, eh walk it off.

Hi guys!  So, I'm a sort of returning player to Magic.  I say sort of because as a child I had two main TCG's I liked.  Yu-Gi-Oh, and Pokemon.  Some of my friends branched off in to Magic, and I bought two pre-made decks just to kind of fit in.  Like I said, Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokemon were what I really knew how to play.  I have a extensive knowledge of deck building in those two TCG's.  However, as far as Magic is concerned, I only ever used those two pre made decks.  I know how the game is played, and I know general things, but now I want to get in the game for real.  I want to begin playing it as a regular.  My question is, are all cards ever released from the time of the inception of this game until present day fair game in a deck?  Or are there special rules?  Are some cards forbidden or restricted?  Thanks guys, and I will gladly accept ANY help lol. 


I have the same problem with women.

See, this is why RPJesus should be in charge of the storyline. The novel line would never have been cancelled if he had been running the show. Specifically the Slobad and Geth's Head talkshow he just described.

HOW DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THE BEAR PRODUCING WORDS OF WILDING?!  WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?!



That's what RPJesus tends to do. That's why I don't think he's a real person, but some Magic Card Archive Server sort of machine, that is programmed to react to other posters' comments with obscure cards that do in fact exist, but somehow missed by even the most experienced Magic players.

And then come up with strange combos with said cards. All of that is impossible for a normal human to do given the amount of time he does it and how often he does it.

He/It got me with Light of Sanction , which prompted me to go to RQ&A to try and find if it was even possible to do combat damage to a creature I control (in light that Mark of Asylum exists).

Blue players get all the overpowerered cards like JTMS.  I think it's time that wizards gave something to people who remember what magic is really about:  creatures.


Initially yes, Wizards was married to blue. However, about a decade ago they had a nasty divorce, and a few years after that they began courting the attention of Green. Then in Worldwake they had a nasty affair with their ex, but as of Innistrad , things seem to have gotten back on track, and Wizards has even proposed .



You are my favorite. Yes you. And moments like this make it so. Thank you RPJesus for just being you.
