Sort of. Board wipe is not a main strategy of the deck, but going second vs a fast deck is problematic so the tidal kind of makes up for this deck taking some time to build. I rarely use tidal...

I have taken Raph's advice with regards to healing cards, they only serve give the advantage to the opponent. If you are winning, youdont need them, if you are losing you only give more tempo toyour...

Not sure what the difference is but Ihave not lost to a Majiya with this deck (and have faced several 200+ Majiya decks). My only losses have been against insanely fast ally decks with ally...

Yeah I would suspect it is a bug because when you do similar thing to allies with life infusion, Jericho removing LI if they have taken more than their normal damage will send them to the graveyard. ...

Good to know, but my wife is already irked at the time I spend fiddling and gaming. Any more time/effort toward games and I'd be sleeping in the doghouse.

BTW Great job qwerty, I really like the...

Good point. I modified the card text so if it is retreated it will be removed from the game, so the original owner cannot recast or recurse the ally.

That was the idea. The mechanics exist because when you steal cards belonging to an opponent with DR or Transference, you can play them on your side. Shouldn't be any different than that.

And...

This concept was originally though of for Lance as his ability would help protect the cards needed for this deck to work, but Jericho keeps the attachment cards from becoming a factor in offsetting...

I see this as a warrior (maybe also thief) weapon. The idea is it is for those who normally do NOT use/have magic.

Name: Soul Shiver
Type: Warrior (+thief?) weapon

This, if it even is a viable idea, is way down the road in expansions, but I just thought of a great new class for heroes: Gadgeteer

Their shadow ablities would all revolve around either not...

I dunno, seems quite overpowered to me at 3 cost for 1 defense and nullification of two heros (Amber/Gwen) and neutering of thieves (throwing daggers). Maybe raise it to 4cc and/or lower its...

Type: Neutral Ability
CC: 3
Effect: Search your deck for any card and place it in your hand. Remove Gone Fishin' from the game.

Heh, sorry, really didn't pay attention to the card names, just the effects to see if someone had thought of this. But unless you own McDonald's or Burger King, I'm pretty sure that name is...

Glad you enjoyed it. I just got a picture of a Wulven latching on to a thief who is grinning at him when the Wulven realizes he is "gumming" the thief and the thief flashes a...

The upside: How many times have you had to make choices early on to sac big allies? It happens a LOT if you play fatties in your deck. That's the incentive for playing this card.

The balance: ...

Blanket is quite correct. The applicable term in tort law is called "Loss of Bargain". It describes the recoverable damages when an infringement is present. Since qwerty is not profiting in any...

I too wish there were a bit more, but given MTGO was cranking out updates like every week or two (it seemed), by the time you bought cards and built a deck, your expansion was obsolete and you had to...

Well I suppose it beats a poke in the eye with a sharp stick...but not by much! LOL

With maybe some minor artwork changes (maybe not even needing that) it would only require the reclassing of existing heroes and the addition of 4 new ones (two Good, two Evil) maybe as follows:

Weapon I can see, items I can see, armor, eh that's a stretch. Wording of "any non-armor item/weapon" maybe, (although I could see a Wulven getting pretty ticked about a theif ripping out his...

To further expand the thought, the flavors would be something like:

Human - versatile, best all around, best selection of weapons/armor, lots of items/gadgets, blast-em type magic
