Title: DKA commons/uncommons
Post by: cltrn81 on February 09, 2012, 07:07:27 PM
I think that DKA has some of the best commons/uncommons by sheer count of useful ones.  Sure others have {dismember} and {shrine of burning rage} and {force of will}.  My point is that the paupers really showed up in this set and there are a lot of really good ones....{strangleroot Geist}, {tragic slip}, all the captains, {lingering souls}, and on and on.  Opinions?  Agree? Disagree?

The captains make it hard to disagree with u :P but i would like to see something similar to the shrines again as the shrines were awesome :)

I think the block as whole has lot useful pauper cards so far.

The most useful common IMO is undying evil. It was my go-to card in the pre-release

I totally agre cltrn81!!! I thought it would hard to top my love for the SoM block, but Inn had me at Morbid. {Undying Evil}, {Unburial Rites}, {Rebuke }, {Avacyn's Pilgrim}, {Infernal Plunge} and WOW, {AMBUSH VIPER}, just to name a few are all wicked cards with long game life!

Some blocks have been filled with commons/uncommons that don't work as well outside that block. Inn is rife with usuable cards!!!

Don't forget {dawntreader elk}! Let's you ramp faster since people avoid killing your {veridian emissary}.

For sure! I'm glad to see some Inn love. On other forums, people hate on it a lot.

My prerelease limited combo ftw was {Typhoid Rats} with {Undying Evil} and {Skeletal Grimace}.

I love DKA because it was tryin really hard to make removal less powerful, because removal is a necessary evil that makes the game a bit less imaginative. IMO of course
