Hmmn, I missed the MTG conversation while I was away. I play. Should I bring decks?

I'd bring a deck, but it's so out of date it'd probably be useless. Built around the time of the apocalypse expansion

That would be fun, just make sure you have some way to keep track of them.

Here are three more - Admin Cards! These were all made with good humor, honest and truely.

What do we do with our admins? Well... we blame them a lot.

Your card has special abilities that it can use in place of attacking or defending. Your card may be used to do nothing, to attack, to defend, or to use one of the three abilities below.

1) You can tap another creature - that means you can make another creature basically useless for a turn. There are a lot of good reasons to do this.

2) You can remove an enchantment from a creature. An enchantment gives a creature an ability, improvement, or sometimes, a liability.

3) You can destroy an artifact in play. An artifact can do one of any number of things. Some are good, some are bad. If someone is using one against you, you could destroy it.

I hate to be an ass, but given the current way Wizards is screwing names up, it wouldn't be remove an enchantment from a creature, it'd be 'destroy target Aura' or 'Destroy an Aura enchanting target creature' or 'Destroy all Aura's enchanting target creature'

Rkolter, you really need to have an understanding of how the colors interact before you can make cards. Specifically, each color does certain things better than others and have strengths and weaknesses. One of the main challenges of the game is combining the colors to supplement each other enough to make up for the reliability you would have by sticking to only one color.

Gamemaster: I can't think of a single black card that taps opposing creatures or destroys artifacts or enchantments, yet this one does all three. Black decks have often had to use another color to deal with these threats. Gamemaster is completely overpowered in this regard, and instead should be a white card, which covers these abilities and is one of black's opposites (the other being green).

Blame Redwolf: This is the same thing as Counterspell, a blue card. White does not counter spells, ever.

Blame Kisai: A permanent version of About Face, a red card.

Blame Merc: This one's alright conceptually, but it's too weak in comparison to similar cards.

Of course it is. I'm the GameMaster.
