*keeps refreshing the store page so he can add this to his preorder*

This card is INSANE. I can think of so many ways this can go wrong!

Ozze flux? Thank you!
Fathom mage; 4 mana, 3/3, when fathom mage enters play, draw two cards.
Gyre sage.
Simic fluxmage.
Simic manipulator(! This card keeps getting better and better the more cards you think of using it with )
Cloudfin raptor; 1 mana, 2/3 flying.

So, we cast our 4 mana dude on turn 3, we have an arbord elf out, and a gyre sage with a counter on it. Turn 4, we get lucky and land our 4th land drop. So we cast Prime speaker Zegana, Prime Speaker Zegana enters the battlefield with X +1/+1 counters on it, where X is the greatest power among other creatures you control. That means she comes into play with 4 counters on her, due to the Biomancer.
When Prime Speaker Zegana enters the battlefield, draw cards equal to its power.

so, on turn 4, you have a 5/5 out and you just drew 4 cards! And the longer the game goes on, the more silly this becomes!

Now, if you have 2 of these guys out? The game just gets silly!

Going into magical christmas land now; we cast our turn 4 2nd biomancer, he comes into play as a 4/6 (!), you still have 4 mana up, due to the arbor elf and the gyre sage, so you may as well cast a fathom mage, and draw 4 cards from your 4/6!
Turn 5, prime speaker Zagana. Enters play with 8(!!!) counters on her. She is a 9/9 creature, and you draw 8 cards! And another card from the fathom mage!


And this isn't that far out either. You can still hit the turn 4 fathom mage, which again allows you to draw 2 cards. So getting to the cards you need in order to pull this sort of stuff off is not even very difficult with the amount of card draw you can pull off, and I haven't added simic fluxmage into the equation yet!

Master Biomancer  

Creature - Elf Wizard

Each creature you control enters the battlefield with a number of additional +1/+1 counters on it equal to Master Biomancer's power and as a Mutant in addition to its other types

2/4

.

This is one insanely stong card! (Tell me if you beg to differ.)
There are LOTS of ways to make this creature strong, either Perma-Buffs or EOT, and this will pump all your creatures by a LOT!

(Hihi, thinking of the slime-Enchantment, endless x/x slimes for where x is Biomancer's power) 


so I keep re-reading the part where it states "an additional amount of +1/+1 counters". I think that they hype that this will pump everyone may have been misread. Wouldn't the wording indicate that only creatures who enter the game with counters primordial hydra will come in with more?

Yeah, well, that's just like, your opinion, man.

No, that just means the counters are in addition to any other counters it enters the battlefield with.  See also Oona's Blackguard . Contrast Doubling Season .

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.

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).

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 .
