Even given the nature of this thread, you're obvious inability to grasp grammar is amazing.

I was being sarcastic, not really sarcastic just joking

BW life deck. Pretty good for an Orzhov deck.

I'm hoping it'll beagle to do well in standard, what's your thoughts on this and how do you think I should sideboard?

Has anyone read the book The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho?

I want to hear your thoughts, this book has really been changing my perspective on life. There's a lot of good deep quotes that give me motivation and inspiration.

There are 3 BW Zombies:
{Putrid Warrior}
{Stillmoon Cavalier}
{Tidehollow Sculler}
Derp, shoulda checked before posting :P Thanks for the correction. I even knew about {Tidehollow Sculler} but for some reason I had turned it into a Thrull in my head. An artifact zombie no less!

I was thinking more of mono white... They're white because of their abilities in my opinion

I said red. Modern sorely lacks a good red enchantment.

I'd say red needs better spells in general, red got kind of dumped on with {Tibalt, the Fiend-Blooded}

Why is mana drain more expensive?  I know some of it is rarity and age. But doesn't the playability of a card come into factor?

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Portal 3 kingdoms and some of alphas stuff is pretty useless but it can be worth hundreds. Usually I've seen cards if they're playable reach about $100 like  {Jace, the Mind Sculptor}

Teyversa, Dryad Queen

Planeswalker-Teyversa

+1: You may play an extra .ground. card from your hand.

-3: return up to 3 target creature cards from all graveyards to the battlefield under your control.

-9: Put a X 3/3 dryads onto the battlefield, where X is the amount of creature types on the battlefield multiplied by two.

Loyalty Points:3

3 things.
1. This is DEFINENTLY elf planeswalker.
2. 2nd ability is broken as hell, and it doesnt quite fit...
3. Why does it say .ground. And not .ground.?

You don't think an extra land for practically free every turn is op? That's 7 mana turn 5, 9, turn 6.

I think maybe forest that enters tapped would be less op, a better tempo without being stupid.
2nd I agree is way too OP as well, playing golgari with this would be... It leaves a bad taste in my mouth
L a n d has been replaced with land

Well sense the last person didnt post a card, ill just post one

{wild nacatl}

UN-BAN IT!

{Daze}

Not sure if the cat is banned....

On {daze}.... You mean I can counter your spell for 3 and then you counter my spell for 3 laughing as you thought you won the counterspell war, then I pull back an island and win? I like this card

{Active Volcano}

Not a bad card for red in a sideboard, able to stop some combos if you get a .ground. out. 

{Obzedat, Ghost Council}

{Wild Nacatl} IS banned in modern.

As far as  {Obzedat, Ghost Council} goes, I'm probably not the best person to comment on it. It's terrible to see your opponent play this card in limited. It's happened to me in three different tournaments. I can't comment on Obzedat in standard because I am not familiar with the format so I'm not sure if he's even played.


  {Ob Nixilis, the Fallen}

{Ob Nixilis, the Fallen}, easily the best demon, especially with the right cards out. Too tired to think of anything bug my addled brain right now thinks of cards like  {Terramorphic Expanse} and  {Crucible of Worlds} or maybe instead of Terramorphic  {Ghost Quarter}.

{Abeyance} (random pick)
