What do we know of Bolas' early years? Like what plane is he from?

He's an Elder Dragon. There's that.

Bolas killed the other Elder Dragons, creating MTG as we know it. Sarkhan is going back in time to stop that from happening.

Stop spreading this rumor. It is already revealed that they're going back to save Ugin. Not this.

^This. I keep hearing this rumor, but nobody has yet to show me anything that even slightly suggests that.

I personally hate the into decks but I suppose they are ok for new players.

My first deck that actually held its own at a FNM was a modified M13 Intro Pack, the one that had exalted. {Sublime Archangel} is a fantastic magic card.

{Ghostfire} anyone?

{Doubling Season} + {Venser, The Sojourner} + {Sorin Markov}

whenever creatures deal combat damage, they deal damage equal to their power. they dont deal damage equal to the blocking creatures toughness. so if a 5/5 has lifelink, unless damage is prevented, the controller will
gain 5 life regardless of blocks.

This.

I picture a {Dragon Broodmother} reprint
{Altar of the Brood}
(Although maybe not cuz idk if Devour will be a thing again. Not sure if it was popular.)

Alter of the brood is referencing snakes not dragons

Yea since it's the Sultai Brood

I just got out of a heated argument with one of my friends about the pronounciation of 'Phyrexia'. He didn't give me a different pronounciation, but did say if you look in the English language it is pronounced differently than it typically is. I looked online, but only found the word 'Phyrexia' in French... Plz halp!

Your 5/5 would deal a total of 5 damage, so you would gain 5 life.

You weren't tricked 15 years ago, but you would be now. Wizards got rid of mana burn all together during the M10 Rules Changes (I think they got rid of damage on the stack as well as a few other things)

Well, at least it was ruled correctly...

Thanks!

So, this happened at the KTK release draft.

I have {Mystic of the Hidden Way} face-down as a morph creature. I attack with him and they choose to block. I then in response flip up my creature. Would my mystic still be blocked and the text on him not matter, or is it the other way around?

4 days???

Yup! Pretty good for a first GP, eh?

I know it's a couple months off, but I am SOO excited for GP Portland! It will be my first GP that I actually attend and participate in the main event (M15 Sealed). Not to mention it's the first 4-day GP!

I say run 2 Ætherling instead of 4, you only need one

I actually said the same thing to my friend, but he said "Well,  the more the merrier!", so I made it l a playset

I was wondering if anybody here plays in the Nashville area, because I will be there from the 28th of this month to the 3rd of July; I'm there for the FBLA National Leadership Conference, so I wouldn't get too much time to play, but if any of you are around, I might drop by and say hi!
