Primeval.

Is there a website or something that tells the "drop rate" of cards? Right now I have about a playset of every common/uncommon of M11, and about 1/4 of the rares.

I wanna know if it's worth buying M11 for BSA or Primeval Titan, or just go Zendikar or eldrazi?

[Tomiko]

Just buy the singles if you need certain cards. If you're set on buying a box though, I would go Zen or M11. Zen cause of fetchlands (better just buying direct though), M11 cause it'll be around for awhile.

[Weltall]

M11 for sure on card quality.

Several of the Titans are playable, dual lands, Baneslayer, Destructive Force, Fauna Shaman, a couple of OK Planeswalkers, White/Black Leyline, Lich post Scars, etc

Rize is absolute CRAP for buying packs.

[oldoldman]

people hate on Frost titan way too much. It's awesome for the tempo of a match, and destructive force has a problem with Titan decks. MAinly because it doesn't kill them.

[SubzeroDiabolos]

I'll just post my rares so everyone can judge based on more.

Spoiler: show

Ancient Hellkite
Hauting Echoes
Necrotic Plague
Anowon, the Ruin Sage
Dark Tutelage
Wild Evocation
Leyline of Punishment
Platinum Angel
Triskelion
Temple Bell
Serra Ascendant
Silence
Day of Judgment
Leyline of Sanctity
Honor of the Pure
Knight Exemplar
Overwhelming Stampede
Mass Polymorph
Traumatize
Stormtide Leviathan
Merfolk Sovereign
Jace Beleren
Leyline of Anticipation

Sunpetal Grove
Protean Hydra
Elvish Archdruid
Birds of Paradise
Gaea's Revenge

Leyline of Vitality
Liliana Vess
Arid Mesa
Goblin Chieftain
Reverberate

That's all =x

My only card worthwhile if you ask me are my 1x Arid Mesa and 1x Gaea's Revenge lol. But buying more packs on M11 scares me because of wasted rares like my 5x traumatize.

It also doesn't kill Sphinx, which is infinitely better.

[Tricen]

Which sphinx?

[oldoldman]

Steel Wind? Or the card draw one?

[Tricen]

Oh right, steel wind still exists. Muh bad.

[oldoldman]

If you're talking about steelwind it's also infinitely harder to cast and has absolutely 0 effect on the board if immediately removed.

[Tricen]

So does any other creature without a CITP ability lol. But, open the vaults is totally viable.

[Weltall]

I was actually thinking about the Shroud one, but I thought it was a darn 6/6.

I can see Frost Titan being good against Destructive Force, but you aren't going to have it out before they cast Destructive Force anyway lol.

And in the same type of Ramp deck, I would MUCH rather be casting DF than casting a Frost Titan.

Zoo is supposed to be a bye for Ichorid I thought?

First game was easy, second game went like:

Zoo: Fetch, G/W Dual, Wild Nacatl, go.

Me turn one, Gemstone Mine, Tap for white, Tireless Tribe, go.

Zoo: Mountain, Path the Tireless Tribe, I discard two Grave-Trolls in response, he swings for three, go.

Me: My upkeep he Faerie Macabre's both my Grave-Trolls, so I draw my card, play Putrid Imp, go.

Zoo: Lightning Bolt my Imp, swing for three, play another land, Goyf, go.


I just couldn't recover from there. Then game three I had to mulligan down to four and just couldn't get going.

[oldoldman]

I don't know if anyone else plays Magic Online but the Sealed Swiss Queues for M11 are paying out insane prizes right now. 3-1 gets you the entry fee back and 2-2 gets you half of it. It's also a pretty awesome format. Although the Titans are just stupid.

Question: Ancient hellkite + Basilisk Collar = tap R, kill a 9000/9000?

[Tricen]

Cunning sparkmage + basilisk collar = kill a whatever you wan that isn't indestructible or prored or shroud.

[CrosisX]

Though its going out shortly...Mark of Asylum nough said

[Tricen]

Too bad it's unplayable.

[Arew]

Mark of Asylum is only good in EDH.

[SubzeroDiabolos]

Cunning sparkmage + basilisk collar = kill a whatever you wan that isn't indestructible or prored or shroud.

Except it works once per turn. With hellkite you can tap 20x R, kill 20x creatures.
