Those made #15 of each art for me. I got a ton of the packs back in the day. Draft mana!

I exclusively use Urza block Japanese basics for my decks that are in black/blue/white. Red and Green get full art Zendikar though.

Those sleeves are popular around here too. They shuffle nice.

I got a mountain of chinese Urza lands. I love those..

[Moridam]

i want those abrupt decays!

So went 5-1-1 at the RPTQ yesterday. Then I lost first round of Top 8 to qualify for Pro Tour

Yay for drawing 5 lands in a row and then a double mulligan.

Shiny Snapcaster Mage though!

Decided to cash out a big chunk of my cards over the weekend. Sold 4 Liliana of the Veil and 4 Rishadan Ports for $900, and got roughly $1700 worth of 5-20 value cards en route to ChannelFireball.

A guitar I'm desperate to own is up for sale in the Boston area, but I decided to be moderately responsible about how I pay for it instead of throwing a few thousand dollars on a credit card.

Welt if you want some heavily played Japanese Urza Saga basics let me know.

Rodrigo Togores wins GP Prague with Storm. Game 3 was fucking amazing. I highly recommend watching it if you have the time.

Oooh, is it up on youtube?

When Flip it or Rip it gets too real.

[Moridam]

i caught the last few turns of game 3 and jesus, yeah it was an amazing finish for sure.

[Krandor]

Damn that game 3 was out of control, played almost perfectly by both of them.

I've been out of Magic for a long time, but...

What the fuck is that? Gain control of a player's turn? What limits does that entail? You draw for them, see their hand, declare everything? I'm guessing the line is drawn at "I yield, lol?"

[silverdragontyr]

The irony is a lot of people are disappointed as it's NOT as OP as the previous Emmy. People wanted something stronger lol.

[Weltall]

It is pretty weak TBH. It shouldn't give your opponent an extra turn after the one you control. I can't count the number of times I've Mindslaver'd someone and it was next to worthless.

The art is fantastic though.

[Krandor]

I dunno what to make of that. It's definitely weaker then the original, but it's easier to cast and the fact that it can actually go to the graveyard is interesting.

And yes, you can't force them to scoop, but otherwise you're getting free reign to do what you want.

I mean really would it have hurt to make it have protection from instants and sorceries? That way enchantments and creature effects are the only removal for it like the last Emmy? That is probably the only thing I would have wished for. Or maybe it would have been cool for it to have a real mindslaver effect instead of giving them another turn after the one you control.

[Krandor]

I'd guess they're balancing out that it can be cast for as little as 6 mana (5 in older formats with Tribal added)
