Recently I played a 5-man duel and managed to kill them all. 3 people were using red, and one person was using white. The white deck gave him life everytime someone cast a red spell, which was pretty much every turn. I still managed to knock him off with my Avatar of Woe even though he was at 60+ life. Is the Graveborn deck that powerful?
Yes, yes it is. In my opinion, too overpowered. Take it apart if you want to keep your friends.
If your friends are so superficial that they'd stop talking to you over a card game, find new friends. Re animator isn't a fun deck, but it also not impossible to beat. Especially game 2 with {Leyline of the Void} and such.
Lolz I was jk. But foil sorin kid has a black white reanimator that also deals with enchantments and artifacts like {grafdiggers cage}. That makes us a little annoyed.
Yes, the guys just laughed and said good game. But the girl got mad and said the deck was cheat. Haha. I look back on it and realized I had 9/9 and 7/7s out on the playing field for the cost of 2 mana.

Oh..oh yes. That card would destroy a reanimator deck. No question.

Apparently he's also cheating with that deck, so....
No deck is overpowered...there is always a counter. That's what sideboards are for. :p

No -.- in a way, the deck is cheat. I didn't cheat. Bringing back an 8/8 for the prIce of a 1/1 or a 2/2 is pretty overkill, IMO.
What I meant by cheating, is someone pointed out in an earlier thread that he was reanimating {Emrakul, Aeons Torn} on first or second turn. Which is impossible, or at least requires tricks he wasn't using.
Ah, I see. That's probably a rigged hand then. I didn't have my Avatar until about turn 12.

Not rigged, just now way to get it in the gy without something like {Stiffle}.

Actually i sometimes swear his hands are rigged... He will also just sit there and draw hands in the middle of trying to trade then beg for a game when he gets a good hand

IKR? He tried to cheat once when he got four tome scours in his mill deck hand, but no islands. Then, after I mulligan once, he said he should be able to get a land from his library because I got a free mulligan, even though in our play group we always play with one free mulligan. Also, I still have yet to see his foil sorin.
Good thing in tourneys that's regulated so there's really not a way to cheat. The graveborn deck is rather slow unless you have a somewhat decent beginning hand. Thats the catch.

That's what mulligans are for. 👌
