How to Join: Pick a High Mage who does not have an apprentice, and you may became said High Mage's apprentice. Otherwise, I may assign you. Post this on our thread.

Our History:
On November 25, 2005, the Izzet clan was founded by the esteemed Masterbeeble with the allure of the new guild coming in Guildpact inspiring the imagination of many members of this forum. When the membership kept growing, it became clear that the U/R color combination was well loved by the MTG Salvation community. Oasis, Canada Man, and Wuffles all took their turns in leading the clan until just before Time Spiral came out.
On August 20, 2006, the clan came near death. Our most active members simply disappeared and the posting crawled to a minimum. Now that Ravnica was old news, the excitement just seemed gone. But thanks to our most dedicated members, the clan was able to return to greatness and holds a strong position to this day. Clearly, magic players love the allure of the colors blue and red.
Current Members (Preceded by the thread number of when they joined):
01 - Rocker05, High Mage of Unpredictability, Leader of [The Izzet] 17 - pet snake, Apprentice of Unpredictability
12 - Ravus, High Mage of Arcane Babblings
19- Nickolaos, Apprentice of Arcane Babblings
08 - Wamyc, High Mage of Elemental Synthesis, Representative of [The Izzet] 18 - Weaver, Acolyte of Elemental Synthesis 19 - ratfinkp, Apprentice of Elemental Synthesis
04 - Tiki_Man, High Mage of Spell Manipulation
14 - DarknessFalls, Acolyte of Spell Manipulation
17 - ilikepie, Apprentice of Spell Manipulation
12 - Niv-Mizzet324,High Mage of Time Manipulation 17 - slaker2008, Acolyte of Time Manipulation 18 - Poisenville Kidz, Apprentice of Time Manipulation
13 - AsianInvasion, High Mage of Domination 17 - C@meron, Acolyte of Domination
High mages are veteran Izzet members who've been here a long time and are well respected for their posting habits.
Acolytes are next down the chain. They've been around for a while and serve as a bridge between apprenticeship and High Magery.
Apprentices are newer members who've generally yet to prove themselves.
Each High Mage has at most one Acolyte and one Apprentice. When all current High Mages have an Acolyte and an Apprentice and a new member wishes to join, one Acolyte will be promoted to the position of High Mage, making the Apprentice under them an Acolyte and another Apprentice their Acolyte as well.
Allies: Although the Cult of Rakdos has fallen, we will never forget our comrades. We remain allies with House Dimir.

Lendritus - I am now calling you out to come back.
Ravus, I think we need a new thread title before we dive into getting a new thread. I know it's been discussed a few times however I don't think we actually settled on one.
Weren't we going to use [Blue for Troll, Red for Flame]?
Also, I don't remember Wuffles being the leader until Time Spiral, I remember his membership, but I vaguely recall rocker's leadership even then... [/memory straining]

A bit more content, there, ratfink... in fact, you could enlighten us as to your whereabout in the clan (I don't actually remember you ever joining... but my memory is... alas, bad :no:).
Has it been two days with no new spoilers but WotC's three official cards? ****.

Blue EDH decks beat nonblue EDH decks, assuming equally competent pilots.
I can almost guarantee that you've been playing against bad players if you're playing random matches against random people on MWS.
In other words, the average MWS player is a n00b.
Not more so than he is, I'm sure.
Weaver and are alike in that we play to win. We share an understanding of what needs to be done to achieve the necessary results. Some lesser parties must be...marginalized...
Spore is highly overrated. And I think you meant "PC."

Yeah me and AI are insanely alike, i think i take things just a tad bit further than he does(im a killer, hes not, if you catch my drift....)
Winning isnt always everything, sometimes losing/sacrifices are necessary, but it still helps if you DONT lose.

What is this "PC" your Talking about?
And Marginalized sounds painful...
But no seriously, I dont care how overrated it is, still looks fun non-the-less.
EDIT: If your worst than AI remind me to never play you. I may never play AI again, he's too good, Plus...He is mean. He called me a bad MTG player.

Really? Maybe it really did have ProRav.
Perhaps later. I'm a little busy at the moment.
Weren't we going to use [Blue for Troll, Red for Flame]?There's an EDH subforum.
Dude, that's a Jund spell, not a Grixis spell.
Also, Reanimate can't be beat.
EDIT: Weaver, that deck looks all right, but to quote a wise man:
"EDH decks play blue, or they lose."
Also, you have some questionable choices.
So no member purgery with this thread?
I've played EDH, but don't think it's that exciting... but then, I never tried too hard...
I see you Blutsau! Post or desist!
Seconded.
Ahem--"Most Dedicated Members" badge please...
Also, I don't remember Wuffles being the leader until Time Spiral, I remember his membership, but I vaguely recall rocker's leadership even then... [/memory straining]

Has it been two days with no new spoilers but WotC's three official cards? ****.
Credit for my sig banner goes to my friend Raptor. <3
i am literally, a bastard, so thank you.
my buddy said io couldnt make an EDH that wins without blue too, i said i could do it, and i have(i think)
thunderblust went over demon-fire-kittie, mainly b/c of persist.
bloom tender is insane, 'nuff said, especially when comboed with Demonfire
im thinking of building around Dralnu
I'm totally not interested in EDH; I stick to constructed formats that are in season and lots and lots of drafting.
ratfinkp, the fields of both Elemental Synthesis and Arcane Babblings are/will soon be open.
Should Sunday be the date when Italicized becomes Erratic Portalized?

We should playtest on MWS, Weaver. You'll definitely see why you can't win without blue (and why big generals are better).

Things have quieted down for the most part. Is everyone eating dinner or something?
No Iactually hate you, i knew from the very beginning that you could never live up to your title of high mage.
if you had read my previous post you would have seen why i did this.
and no, blue doesnt garuntee a win. ive been testing it all day.
