Trying to build a WUBRG infect deck for giant growth s, assault strobe s, jump s, infiltrate s, and more. Yeeeaaahhhhh...
 Copies of Tobias Andrion so far: Twenty Three!! I'm Johnny/Spike. I want to win, but I want to win with fun and awesome deck ideas and/or great card combos.

Not bad. But what happens flavor wise when one kamahl kills the other one?
Zis iz a sign uf deep psychological troma, buried in zer subconscious mind. By keelink himzelf, Kamahl iz physically expressink hiz feelinks uf self-disgust ova hiz desire for hiz muzzer. [/GermanPsychologistVoice]
That makes no sense to me.
If they spelled the ability out on the card in full then it would not be allowed in a mono-black Commander deck, but because they used a keyword to save space it is allowed?

Yup, just like you can have Birds of paradise in a mono green deck but not Noble Hierarch . YAY COLOR IDENTITY 
Is algebra really that difficult?
Survey says yes.
You want to make a milky drink. You squeeze a cow.
I love this description. Like the cows are sponges filled with milk. I can see it all Nick Parks claymation-style with the cow's eyes bugging out momentarily as a giant farmer squeezes it like a squeaky dog toy, and milk shoots out of it.

Putting a Scourge of the Nobilis on a Woolly Thoctar
Nice synergy there, and the creature has great power/defence to mana cost, it's vanilla but in this case still hardly underpowered.
Thats not an aura you'd get back like [rancor] is, but still.
Unless those cards was not in keeping with the rest of the deck.

I would be so excited about how awesome it would be if I got those sorts of cards into play, that I would miss the fact that I was offering up a 2-for-1 to my opponent. Big fat creatures are great, unless they get countered, or just Terrored, or bounced, or I get raced before i can play them. Plus playing a 3-color deck with minimal mana fixing wasnt great either.
Basically, my mistake was to be fixated on how cool it could be, and not how likely it would be to work.

Isnt the worst "rookie mistake" there^ trying to enter FNM with an illegal deck? 
~ Tim
Nah it was just a casual friday night magic at a local shop that wasn't able to host events yet so we just played some casual for a bit. It was every bit as competetive but there was just no DCI or Wizards Event Reporter.
I guess I should have clarified that it was a casual magic event held on a friday night.
