[+1]: Look at the card on top of your library. If that card shares a name with an artifact in play, you may reveal it and put it into your hand.
[-1]: Put a 0/2 thopter artifact creature token named "Ornithopter" with flying into play.
[-2X]: Put x artifact equipment tokens named "Leonin Scimitar" with "Equipped creature gets +1/+1." and "Equip " into play, then repeat this process x times.

Think of how Neo couldn't beat the robots, but they kept him around anyways to defeat Agent Smith. Sure, the robots might not like having a Neo running rampant because instead of playing their favorite 4 drop fatty robot, they have to play a bunch of one mana Matrixs to contain him, but at least Neo keeps Agent Smith from reanimating an Iona on turn two.

I really enjoy imagining this from Kevin's perspective. Because in Kevin's world, Rosewater actually reads everything he types. Mark is sitting there right now, reading this, and thinking "The greatest trick the devil ever pulled. . ." Or some such. He chuckles low, then clicks on "The Best Of KEVINSET" and says "Yes, this'll do just fine. A busty lady with banding who deals direct damage to Zones!? Why this will be the star of my next set, and no one will ever believe you Kevin." Then he closes his Macbook, so his servant may move it out of the way, while another servant puts a Fetal Richard Garfield Clone lathered in Steak Sauce in front of him. Then Mark Feasts.

I mean, In KevinWorld, Mark is reading the very words I'm typing as well. Heck, in KevinWorld maybe I am Mark.

[In response to a thread about how hard grading is]

Upon reading this, I've found myself completely unable to operate in the world.  I tried to decide what to eat for breakfast, and pondered the vast consequences of my choice.  How do I balance my dietary needs against my desire to eat good-tasting food? Should I factor in how long it takes to prepare?  Cereal is ready in moments, but bacon takes longer to cook.

Then there is the impact on other industries.  Do people in the cereal industry deserve to be employed more than people in the bacon industry?  Which industry should I support? I don't even have the data regarding HOW MUCH the cereal industry benefits from me eating a bowl of cereal, or how much the bacon industry benefits from me eating a side of bacon.  How can I compare two qualities I can't even quantify?

And let's not forget the milk on the cereal.  In addition to determining whether or not milk is healthy for me, how much that benefits the milk industry, and how much the people in the milk industry deserve my support, we have to factor in the fact that cows are put under brutal conditions in order to collect thier milk.  Of course, the same goes for the pigs, and then they get killed.  Of course, I really like bacon.  So I need to come up with a scale that compares the value of cow happiness to pig happiness to my happiness.  What trade-offs am I willing to make here?  Does the fact that the pig gets put out of its misery count as a plus or a minus?  Isn't bacon bad for me anyway?

Deciding what to eat for breakfast (or any meal) is impossible.  Help me!

I must admit chinkeeyong, you have the most interesting character ideas; and you play them well.

Anyway, you'd be surprised about Time Stop. When I first saw that card as a relatively new player I didn't see its full potential until I read the reminder text. Is it that unintuitive, though? Mine I mean. What is possibility? Is it possible for me to type these words with my tusks? No, because I don't have tusks. Although I am now tempted to go buy some - obviously not from poachers or whatever - and use them as typing apparatus. I could be the best secretary ever. "What's your words per minute sir?" "Well, only six, but I use these tusks to type them." "You're hired!" That was the interview. And is anyone else disappointed that "apparati" is not the plural form of apparatus? I just could strangle a dictionary, because "apparatuses" is a real word. I guess it sounds pretty cool. I'll call them my Apparatusks.

Your wording says if I pay 4 I get 16 scimitars?

When designing planeswalkers, remember these three words: Synergy, Synergy, Synergy!

The abilities on this planeswalker don't really interact in any way (the first and second sort of do, I suppose). I guess a planeswalker that costs is pretty restrictive by default, but I'm also not convinced that a planeswalker should ever cost . Any sort of repeatable effect, regardless of how inconsequential it may be, is worth at least .

Synergy among planeswalker abilities is a general rule of thumb, but not always.

Chandra 3.0 , Jace 4.0 , Venser , Vraska , and to a lesser extent Liliana 2.0 don't really follow that trend and instead have abilities that are very flavor driven. I'd say synergy between abilities can make planeswalkers more interesting and focused, but it is really not always necessary.

You can "draw" some copies of Leonin Scimitar + Ornithopter with its first ability if you have already used its other abilities.. If you "draw" equipment, you can summon and then equip Ornithopter tokens, and if you "draw" artifact creatures, you can summon and then equip Leonin Scimitar tokens.. Also, you can summon Ornithopter tokens and then summon Leonin Scimitar tokens for them! That's enough synergy for zero-mana planeswalkers that can't have more interesting abilities, right?

I would've said Sorin Markov is the most flavor-driven, though.
