Dodgin'

(Click to Enlarge)
Went on to win this one, getting him to exactly 0.  


A Quick aside on manabases: I run 19 each Mountain and Swamp, 8 Each Island and forest and 6 Plains.  I feel like you REALLY want 4-5 Mountains on turn 8(for Scourge of Kher Ridges, Hellkite Overlord etc). But you also want access to BBB for Helldozer and Kalitas, Bloodcheif of Ghet.  You want Islands and forests for activated abilities but don't necessarily want to play them because of landwalkers(although playing forest is okay, because Vaevictus Asmati is the only elder dragon legend worth keeping around, since he ends the game so fast).  By the time i get to 8 I like having 4 Mountain 3 Swamp 1 Forest in play OR 5 Mountain 3 Swamp, 4 Mountains 4 Swamp is also accessible.  I see so many of my opponents playing Islands and I have no sympathy when they get blown out by Sundering Titan.

  2. Cool, man. My bro plays this and at a club but it shut down. Now we play together. It's been many years since I played. You should tip on some things.

  3. Allright, way to go. Looks like an intense game.
    I have to admit, I was guilty playing Islands from time to time in the past.
