The Flame-Free Confession Thread II

I guess I would love to meet up with someone from t nation that lives in the UK and it would definitely make the vacation super fun. That’d definitely make me decide on going.

The Mirage Block is pretty good though. In my list of favs. Innistrad is my hands down favorite block.

Any Aggro Deck I constantly take critical damage if I come across a person who’s just dead set on brute force to win. I lose rather quickly if it’s taking me a while to build up manna too. Which it usually does since black is my favorite. Sometimes I can just stack my cards right and win with a bit of critical thinking. Blue is the absolute best for halting enchantments and counters almost completely, in my opinion. So I try to mix counter, and control as best I can.

Personally I like the advantage of solely using Black and Blue colors.

Hands down my favorite card of all time is Lord of Extinction. I used to loathe sending my cards to the graveyards, but moments when I smacked that card down and obliterated an entire table was sooooo totally worth it. Leader starts with 40+ health?

All fine and dandy, let me just smack down the finisher, and gain a total strength and toughness of ALL the combined graveyards on the table.

Even the best defense decks don’t stand a chance.

The one card I want above all is the Wrath of God card. But Id honestly just have it as a little trinket/collectible. But I lost all of my decks so it would be something I’d get if I ever decided to build decks again.

Ice Age was my favorite edition, probably because it was the newest one out when I started playing.

I found victory by redefining it. It wasn’t so much that I had to win: I just had to make the other person lose. In turn, I had the most success building a deck around the black card “Pestilence”. 1 black mana meant 1 damage to every creature and player. Spend as much as you want. $.30 common and it was absurd. I’d just keep spamming that, Pox, dark ritual, etc etc, and eventually we’d all just die from my recklessness.

In group games, people would eventually stop going after me, because they realized the chain reaction it would have. “Oh, you just killed my 6/6 creature? Alright, well since he’s dying, everything also dies now.”

I’m pretty certain I have a Wrath of God. Or Armageddon. Or both…

I like Stefi Cohen because I actually did not know she was a Doctor of Physical Therapy for the longest time. With most DPTs, it’s thinking they’re medical doctors until you find out that they’re Doctors of Physical Therapy, because they wave that “Dr” moniker around all the time.

What!! when did Heavy Duty training stop being a thing.

I don’t think it’s really ever been one other than having a small cult following who speak mostly in metaphors and parables. It tends to resurface for a brief period now and then when someone like Ellington Darden writes a new book, then it disappears again.

I will always admire Mike Mentzer for being an absolute lunatic.

And not a “he trained really hard in the gym” kind of lunatic, but a “he crashed his car into a building and scaled Joe Wider’s fence proclaiming that Weider was his father AND the coming messiah” kind of lunatic.
