My friend is wants to make an {Animar, Soul of Elements} EDH. I said I'd throw a decklist together. Any ideas? I want my friend to get into EDH so I want his deck to be awesome, but he doesn't have a lot of money for cards.

Check out Clrnt8's, (or whatever he has for a name -_-), Dont wake Smaug deck and comments in casual, slumbering dragon deck so alot of counter adding. Its RG so all spells work.

This is kind of a goofy question.  I was looking at {su chi} on the database, and it says it's an Artifact Creature - Construct.
The actual card doesn't say "construct". Does this mean something?  Does it have some kind of rule affect?

It's like how {Lord of Atlantis} says "Summon Lord", yet his Oracle Text says something completely different. It's a retcon of an un-"Modern" card.

They recently (a year or two ago, I don't remember) the did a massive "Creature Type Update". They went through every creature ever printed and decided what creature types it should be. Most of the old artifact creatures never had a type, many types made no sense (if a creature's type was Sand People, that meant that Sand is a type and People is a type) or were specific to one creature only (see the original {Uncle Istvan}, he used to make {Mistform Ultimus} an uncle and that's just creepy. 😣).

Does anyone know the date of this?
