Nah. In Magic, it's all about usefulness. The game has been around so long now (I mean, it WAS the first TCG ever!) that almost everything is functionally similar, if not identical, to something else!

It just matters how competitive the card is, especially in Standard and Legacy!

my friends say that some useless card got reprinted again

A few of them do, yep. Like Merfolk of the Pearl Trident. Magic is not just about its competitive players, and core sets are meant to be more for the new players and such!

Sets are made to be pleasing to all kinds of players, as much as possible (even Commander players, as of late!), and core sets are dedicated to two groups of people: New players and casual players.

i need to find a few cards to make my white humans to a red white humans...

well, if you're looking to play standard, then I would suggest Innistrad block for that, though a few select rares from SOM and M13 may be useful, such as Hero of Bladehold from Scars of Mirrodin block, and Odric, Master Tactician from M13

i found this but it looks like im gonna have to put out a lot of money to find some of those cards... i already have a few of those cards in play sets or i possess 1 or 2 of them

I would run 2 Thalia and four of either Silverblade or Crusader, but that's just my two scoops of poop

lol... poop... well i have 4 crusaders and i dont want to spend much money on revamping my deck so i might just do the minimum on spending money and try to make some trades

Well good luck man

going to bed now

don't poop on your cards

if i cant get the cards by trades i might just keep it white humans

I got a couple of Odrics at the pre-release event I went to :D Weirdly Rancor was an incredibly rare pull. Between me and by friends (50 boosters) we got one.. and i was getting doubles of mythic rares :/

I'm loving the rare merfolk as well. I built a deck around m13 merfolk and some clones and got a turn 5 win o-o

Please send me all copies of Thragtusk and Yeva, Nature's Herald

A friend of mine got one of each of those, but i got neither.

Yeva is my favorite EDH commander right now <3

Mono-Green for he win!

Nature, at instant speed.

Be prepared. Reckonings, etc.

I made a crappy little EDH last week with Jor Kadeen. He's the only dual coloured commander I have, other than an Atog that is all 5 o.O

YOU

SHOULD GET

COCKATRICE

so we can play together dawg

we also need to get your girlfriend to play

because we kick so much ass

she needs to kick it with us

Also, I'm a great commander player, would love to spread my knowledge to some willing proteges *W*

I've had a look at cockatrice, but it's a little overwhelming to me as a somewhat new player.

I know Nexy has had a little experience in Magic, and i'm sure she would get into it if i made her :P

I would love a little Commander help. It currently the deck i'm focusing on most.

Get the damn thing, I'll train you. I have the patience, and the desire.

Also, I explained the philosophies of the 5 colors to her! =D

does it have unlimited access to all cards, so you can make what ever deck you want? 'cause i suck at deck making unless i have restrictions to work within :P

It does, but I will help you. Don't worry. I'll also probably have you work in some restrictions so I can see your deck style, and then I'll build you an EDH

Generally my deck styles are very simple >_> right now i'm working on a stuffy doll infinite damage combo, and infinite squirrels.

I have both, and am actually on the team for Crazy Squirrel Game Store <<

just 3 cards together can produce infinite damage and infinite squirrels.. it's a little insane o-o

Most my other decks are simple as hell and don't really combo or anything. trample one being get big creatures, overwhelming stampede. simple things like that xD

I know how that is.

Yer a timmy, like most new players

I have 10 decks now. one of them being a total fail/joke, but the rest or sort of okay i think.

Jokes are fun

like panties

To elaborate: Joke decks can be fun to play, and you should never ever look down on them =)

Mine is just all my miracle cards stuck in a pile with a lot of the mana myrs. And Karn, just because Karn.

ew

sounds like a super fun deck that could poop on people if it works

original karn is best karn

i have three entreat the angels hiding in there, which can get pretty horrible. I only use it in multiplayer, and generally roll a dice to decide who i target with anything i miracle :P it's just to add a sort of wildcard to games.

Planeswalker Karn is fun though. We reset a game and made a person who had gone home to bed come back. Then i used world slayer.. then Worldfire >_> it's quite the annoying deck.

wtf

stop it

sell the entreats

go buy as many copies of Yeva, Nature's Herald as you can

send them to me

be awesome

get some ass

I got crazy amounts of mythics out of the avacyn restored booster box i bought >_<

i'll wait for m13 to be officially released before i go about buying cards from it >_>

but

but

BUT GREEEEEN!

I do love me some green.

so it took me a while to get around to this but here is my deck build. i will enjoy your feedback and input:

Hyjin's white humans (x61):
Creatures (x28)
Champion of the Parish x4
Gideon's Lawkeeper x4
Doomed Traveler x4
Elite Inquisitor x3
Mirran Crusader x4
Adaptive Automaton x2
Mentor of the Meek x2
Fiend Hunter x3
Silverblade Paladin x1
Riders of Gavony x1

Spells (x11)
Bonds of faith x3
Honor of the Pure x4
Oblivion Ring x4

Artifacts (x1)
Otherworld Atlas x1

Lands (x21)
Cavern of souls x1
Gavony Township x2
Sunpetal Grove x4
Plains x14

That looks pretty solid for a small humans deck, and the Champion of the Parish has the potentially to become pretty threatening. how do you plan to play it? Is it all about getting the champion big, or swamping with lots of small creatures?

depends on what hands i get... (starting hand 3 planes, 1 champ, 1 adaptive, 1 cavern, and one bonds) first turn play land and then champ. next turn draw (fiend hunter) play second land then bonds on either enemy creature (if any that is big) or on champ. next turn draw again (planes) play land and then either adaptive or fiend hunter depending on opponents last turn.

so i guess you can say its make champ big but other times it beat my opponent with small stuff until i get them bigger with honor

(yes i did just pull out my cards to do that)

I would be worried by the lack of protection from removal, especially if you're playing it where one creature getting big is your win condition. If you're going for a swarm condition then removal isn't as big of an issue.
I would suggest looking into some other equipments, like mask of avacyn or either of the hexproof/shroud boots. then there's little ones like bladed bracers that give additional things when on humans.
Otherwise it seems fairly solid and should get a fair amount of creatures out pretty fast. Though that may lead to a fairly limited hand size quite fast, with only one card in the whole deck to help with that.

Really though i could say all sorts of things, but i can't really see it or really guess how it will play. you just have to play test it a lot.

i play test it everyday when i can

I get to test out my updated islandwalk deck tomorrow. Merfolk and fish everywhere.

whoot fish people
