Banning in standard.

Ok. So the banning of Jace the Mind Sculptor and Stoneforge Mystic in Standard happened. No it was not a dream for those that thought it was. I know when I read it, I thought I was in the Twilight Zone. To be honest I do not think this was the right choice. It may have been a good idea for the longevity of the game so in that aspect I cannot agree. I have a problem with the fact that we will have a brand now format 3 weeks after the banning takes effect and that seems pointless to me. Did they not make Magic 2012 good enough to handle both Jace and Stoneforge, or at least the former. If not then I don't know if M12 is where I want to be with bantastic Jace being kicked out because the set couldn't create a reliable answer. In the end we will see how it goes once July 1st hits and we are without 2 of the most broken cards in half a decade, and the two weeks of standard before M12 hits shelves.

Valdazi

So I was really wanting to build a Valakut list with some Eldrazi it. I was reading Gerry T's article yesterday, which had a sweet Valakut list in it. I thought I would make some changes and find a way to put some Eldrazi in it. So far I am happy with the changes. My only problem has been figuring out a decent sideboard plan. I havent decided if I want to side into a full on Eldrazi deck or stay with the Valakut plan. I will give you both options and you can do what you want with them.
Main
     3 Cultivate
     3 Eldrazi Temple
     2 Evolving Wilds
     4 Explore
     5 Forest
     1 Inferno Titan
     1 Kozilek, Butcher of Truth
     3 Lightning Bolt
     4 Lotus Cobra
     3 Misty Rainforest
     9 Mountain
     2 Oracle of Mul Daya
     4 Overgrown Battlement
     4 Primeval Titan
     3 Raging Ravine
     4 Summoning Trap
     1 Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre
     4 Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle
Side1- Valakut plan
      1 Lightning Bolt
      3 Natures Claim
      3 Arc Trail
      4 Obstinate Baloth
      2 Green Sun's Zenith
      2 Thrun, the Last Troll
Side2- Eldazi plan
     1 Lightning Bolt
     1 Eldrazi Temple
     1 Emrakul, the Aeons Torn
     1 Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre
     3 Nature's Claim
     2 Eye of Ugin
     4 Obstinate Baloth
     2 Arc Trail
These are 2 very different sideboards, both have good merrit, I like both and have been experimenting with them. Its all on preferance on witch you want to play. No matter what you choose I hope you enjoy playing the deck as much as I am.

   4 Darkslick Shores
   3 Doom Blade
   2 Drowned Catacomb

I feel like this is very well positioned for Regionals this weekend, and possibly the next few weeks with some proper tweaking. Good luck all.

Why you are stupid!

If you think you are smart, well sorry to tell you but you are dead wrong! No one in their right mind is smart. There is always something someone knows way more than you about. I know for a fact that I do not know shit about Chemistry so I am not going to pretend I do, yet a lot of you would. Stop being a fake ass bitch and be yourself, well unless your a fake ass bitch then just go lay down and die. Because no one in the world wants you around.

So if you want to change from being fake here are somethings you can do: 1st Be honest with yourself(admit your an ass face, who is scared of the real world) 2nd Don't say you know something when you clearly do not it just makes people want to curb stomp you. 3rd If that fails punch yourself in the face and hope people will feel sorry for you, but they probably won't because they see you are hella fake.

Enjoy being a bitch if you fail!

Why you should be playing Legacy!

If your not playing Legacy, then you are not having as much fun with MTG as you could be. I personally have not played much Legacy yet I have found it to be the most fun playing magic I have ever had.

If you ask all the pros most of them will say their favorite constructed format is Legacy. Why you might ask, simple it has almost all of the most power cards the game has to offer.

Financially, getting into Legacy is one of the most stable invests you can make in MTG. Getting staples of the format makes trading for cards you want/need much easier.
