Is playing fall further for 2 months without realising you don't have the latest patch.


AND DOWNLOADING IT!


Its like falling in love all over again.

Blue decks now aren't as bad as when Tolarian Academy was standard, sir.

I haven't played since Mirroden, but I get all the references...
 
I haven't really played since 6th ed... Not counting the jaunt into Ravnica I had to do when my prized land-destruction deck went through the wash ;_;
 
Okay... 7th ed would be the latest of truly active play...


I feel bizarrely old now...
 
I'm old, I started playing MtG seriously in Ice Age but I have some cards from when I started... which are much, much older. And mox.
 
Don't mention Ice Age. My Ice Age Jokulaups was one of the sad victims of the wash... As was four denghis eggs from various editions...
 
Counterspell. It solves problems.
 
Well, that's just one spell that counters :P
 
Oh my lord, how I hated f-ing blue decks and counterspells.

Depending on when Iceciro built his deck, what turn it was and how much mana you had available:

B - ForceSpike to waste their turn because they didn't have one freaking spare mana
BB - Counterspell
1BB - The updated version of counterspell [forget name]
2BB - Rewind. Potentially devastating with the proper board preperation, but always a good late-game counterspell
XB - Condescend. Counter freaking anything provided you've got one more mana than them [almost always]

I remember one particular game in which I lost to an all counter deck that stocked a mere four creatures - Spiketail Hatchling.

I ended up leaving Magic after it devolved into Blue counters vs Red land destruction. As a lover of Green + White, the complete inability to play a single card over an entire game got very old.
 
Dear gods. I QUIT playing just after Ice Age (bastards re-released the Icy Manipulator and cost me a lot of potential sell-out cash. Fortunately the Dopelganger had just become popular and made up for things so that I still came away with a nice overall profit). I doubt my favorite type of decks would even be recognizable anymore (Thalids, how I loved thee...)
