Re: Another Magic player wins a bracelet
 

Do I get to be part of the Magic crowd? I never played on the Pro Tour but I once had a complete deck consisting of nothing but basic land and every single card that had "Of" in the title.

That Wheel of Fortune/Chains of Mephistopheles/Anvil of Bogardan combo was a killer . . .

I'm doomed then, I sucked at magic, hence i'll never be a successful poker player. I'll trade you and ace of clubs for a couple of low diamonds, any takers?

a handful of friends/acquaintences from vancouver are playing in the 2005 ME this year, the magic crowd will not slow down. i'd love to see a former magic player win. been out of the scene for about 2-3 years though.

After the match, Chris Pikula approached Gabriel. "You discarded the wrong cards to your Mongrel, you know. You should have discarded both of your Call of the Herds, and then played the fourth land to flash one back, instead of discarding the land and a Call, and hard casting the second one."

"Well," replied Gabriel, "I didn't expect him to have Wretch."

"Yeah, but he did. Plus, you need a fourth land for Karma and Phantom Centaur. It wasn't worth it to cast a Call one extra time that game."

"I guess you're right."

Yeah, Paluka. You know, the guy who has a magic card made in his resemblance.
