Interesting Magic: Mono-Colour EDH Generals Part 5: White

Last but by no means least we come to White, I was genuinely surprised by how many interesting effects that white has had bolted onto it's legends down the years and it further reinforces my idea that no-one really knows what to do with white at Wizards so they just keep throwing shit at it and seeing what sticks..... then go back to angels.

Without further ado here's the last handful of potential Commanders for you to start thinking of before I begin the mammoth task of working through all the 2 and 3 colour combinations and then who knows.

Interesting Magic: Mono Colour EDH Generals Part 4: Green

Following swiftly on with Green. I'm rather dissappointed that my favorite magic colour seems to have an allergy to anything unique and has populated its legendary slots with manadorks and fatties. But there's a couple of gems in here including my favorite rage inducing Commander EVAR.

Interesting Magic: Mono Colour EDH Generals Part 3: Red

So we're back with Part 3. Red is burnination, goblins, dragons and not many effects that aren't dealing damage on their legends. It seems Blue has the headlock on interesting legendary effects but meh, we'll soldier on anyways.

Interesting Magic: Mono-Colour EDH Generals Part 2: Black

And now on with part 2. I'll be honest here though this isn't anywhere near as long as Blue because Black's legendary creatures seem to fit the theme, the kill shizz, they reanimate shizz or they suicide black shizz. But I've managed to find a few that get my magic brain tingling.

Interesting Magic: Mono-Colour EDH Generals Part 1: Blue

So that hiatus was a thing......don't ask.

But on with the show.

I've recently fallen deeply in lust with casual EDH/Commander games and making quirky decks which use offbeat generals, you know, like every other Magic player who has been playing for 6+ years that doesn't have any Pro Points.

This is some of the funnerer (that is totally a word) mono-blue generals I've dug out from my trawlings of cards.

aaaaaaaaaaaand We're Back....Sortof.

While I won't make any excuses for not updating I have indeed had a grand tale of woe to convienently fill in for all the missed updates but you're not interested.

The blog will be updating as and when while I am jobless and then in a more structured manner once I'm employed. Until then enjoy lots of random updates for the various things I'm working on/poking around at the moment.

Hopefully I can claw back some followers and get this blog back on track.

Can Watching Be Better Than Playing? Part2: Top Level Play

Now like the majority of my readers, barring possibly 1, I am not a world championship level player and thanks to my cronic procrastination and attention span of a gnat when it comes to anything but games design I'm unlikely to ever be.

However there is a way I can enjoy all the fun of that amazing play without having to shed a single friend in the process. This is watching casts and recordings of top level tournament play.

While many of you may either be thinking I'm dense for bringing this up, or just bored by the process, hear me out. While for the most part high level play can just be pokes and least risky actions there is the odd thing that comes up which can be an enjoyable watch.

Uni Work + Real Work + Life + Pain = Missed Updates

There is a stutter in the update schedule due to many many things.

This will be rectified.

Skubhammer starter armies.
Rules for SCP CCG.
Core Classes for Dunian Cronicles.
Alchera Valley adventure for Bore-Na.
Concept CCG Introduction.

Shall be offered to placate you. The updates will also be a little erractic until the end of May then everything should settle into a nice smooth shedule.

Thank you for your patience.

All Work And No Play Makes Moley A Dull Boy.

All nighter to get work handed in.
Drove 500 miles to deliver some rats to their new home.
Very Very long 2 days.
Post will be tomorrow after I have slept.
Sorry.

Interesting Cards Set by Set: Prophecy

Another series of Magic articles is, rather than annoying, interesting cards from each set. I know that interesting is a comparitive value but I hope to back up my claims and show you cards you might have missed or not considered. Don't expect power rares or the like to populate these lists too often but there will be some surprises along the way.

Now the set Prophecy holds a special place in my heart. It was the first set I conciously bought cards for and dispite it having a lower powerlevel than many sets there are still some nice card cycles, cards of a similar type in each colour, and other interesting cards floating about to build decks round or break.
