Is it just me or did Conspiracy 1 have better, more fun conspiracies? I remember going conspiracies and as mono artifact as I could in the first Conspiracy but here most of the conspiracies feel very build around, where if you don't pick it up early and know that is what you are building they are going to be useless.
Also can anyone else get the conspiracies to show up on the gatherer?
EDIT: Post above me addressed this
"they said they wanted to force people to think strategically about the conspiracies/draft cards because the right strategy in CNS was to just slam them early. "
I'd rather face off against the original conspiracies too.
The only one I want to play out of the new ones is "Emissary's Ploy" and that only works if I get it within my first 5-ish picks.
It's not dead. We just almost all lurk now. How do you have an EO as an Ex leader?
I just wanted a group of people that actually care about Ravnica to help with my goals. Heck, I just want enough people in general to complete the survey, I'd be happy with pretty much any plane getting a D&D Guidebook.
As the Ex-Leader of this clan I would like to make an Executive Order that everyone complete the survey at the bottom of this article and say that they want to play on Ravnica.
The heroes cards for the Prerelease paths are The General, The Savant, The Tyrant, The Warmonger and The Provider.
The Explorer is the Release Hero
The Vanquisher is the Game Day Hero
To be honest the deck could probably use a few more elite heads if you want to make it tougher.
Yeah, I wish it came with more. I love it when it has the Savage Vigor Head in play so it gets an additional spell on each of its turns. I was sad when I bought mine and I found out there was only one in the deck, if I could I would take out the Strike the Weak Spots in exchange for more Savage Vigor Heads but I am not going to buy more copies of the deck just so I can do that.
I would get a second Ashiok, lower your curve (get rid of all of the expensive cards) play a lot more removal/countermagic to protect specter and ashiok, and consider playing:
Cyclonic Rift seems pretty solid, I am not too sure about the other ones though.
What do you consider expensive? Obviously the Primordials, probably the Stolen Identitys, what about the 5 mana stuff?
The idea of the deck is to win with my opponents cards.
Ashiok is mainly there to mill to remove my opponents options and hopefully trick my opponent into wasting some attacks, I have yet to use him for any ability other than his plus.
Meletis Charlatan was a card I initially threw in to fill space but he has been helpful to double up Cures, Griptides and spells I stole from opponents.
Clone and Stolen Identity are there for tons of reasons, an extra Specter, triggering comes into play abilities of Primordial's and the Wall and copying my opponents creatures.
Scourgemarks are 100% filler but I want to replace them with something that has card draw.
This is hard, there is the Vorthos part of me that really wants to make a heavy flavour deck and have an epic battle against the Hydra, then there is the part of me that wants to make sure I win and just use an all removal all the time deck.
EDIT: What happens if the Hydra gets a creature token because of Swan Song, Curse of Swine or a similar effect, can it use those to block?

A article on the site or anything in the Set Guide that comes with Fat Packs?
