You also forgot to mention that your opponent would be color-screwed AND mana-screwed, too. Laughing Sorry, guys, gone for a while, but I’m back now!

Actually, when this happened to my friend, he played a lightning helix (which was flames of the blood handed in response), and was killed before he could wrath down the board.

Welcome back, thanks for reading my other article, must’ve taken you a while. And yep, that IS the sickest zoo hand ever, inreponse put it greatly into words! Oh, btw, I’ve given some thought on the "List of Good Cards", and I think I’ll leave it as it is right now, but I wanted to add the "Top 10" Members’ choice! I’d like you guys to PM me YOUR Top 10 Standard cards, so I can post the final standings before the end of the month, could you do it? I’ll take inresponse’s Top 10 from his post above, the rest of you, PLEASE, PM me your standings. You don’t even have to justify, just tell me the 10 cards you’ll ALWAYS want to have in standard, right now, not considering Time Spiral, since it’s only tournament legal next month. Thanks in advance!
I don't like YOU.

speaking of the top ten lists... where are they? and I also think I want to add stalking yeti as an honorable mention because he has been way more than ridiculous for me.

Hum... could be mentioned. I’m still waiting for physcosick’s list, so I can tally the votes, and then it’ll be up and running.

Aw man... I just found something you missed. Gruul beats isn’t in here at all. It’s been posting number far better than Zoo for months now, and you need to board in differently than against zoo. Whoops!

Also, I would have added a bit about needing to play about 22-24 lands, as every successful deck of late has been playing (except the occasional 21 land Gruul beats deck).

Perhaps a quick summary of guilds and which are most powerful and for what would have helped as well, since they will be hanging around standard for another year. I was just bored and starting picking my brain for anything you could have possibly missed- this is not to say this is a poor article by any means.

I liked the tips! As for Gruul beats, I listed the Top Ten decks on the week I wrote the article, and it wasn’t among it, that’s why it’s out. But on the part of WotC I linked, it’s possible to find it. I WILL add a bit about the Guilds, though, great idea! Thanks, LSG!

I’m shocked Zoo was on there and gruul wasn’t! My bad- good using your resources. I just haven’t seen Zoo in a while, so I figured it would have been off by then.

Yeah, I mean, as I said, I also see a lot of Gruul Beats here, and no Zoo, but it appears magic online has a lot of people playing Zoo, bunch of netdeckers! Laughing But I liked the idea about the guilds, as soon as I have the time (hopefully, before the month ends, so I can try to take my grade up that last notch Wink ) I’ll add a little something on them.
