I haven't touched a magic card since any of those Eldrazi guys have been printed so, I can't speak to the match up, but I know Infect at one point was mega fast, and tron has always been a 3 card combo, but yeah after watching, it was rough needing the mull to 4.Sometimes a sandwich is just a sandwich.- Sudo_Nym

The big problem is that Infect got a lot slower when Probe was banned; it's a lot harder to get a consistent t3 kill without it. It also means that new Infect lists are still up in the air, as people try to figure out if it's better to try and maintain the speed without Probe, or if you should go to something more resilient, instead. Death's Shadow seems to have done the latter, but Infect's seen less testing, it seems. I mean, I'd have been tempted to just put Street Wraith in that slot, since it's basically Probe Minus Peek, but I'm guessing other people already thought of that.One time, back in 'nam, Sudo was set upon by an entire squadron of charlies. He challenged them all to a game of Pictionary, which he won resoundingly. The charlies were forced to not only surrender the skirmish, but also their world-famous chili recipe, which Sudo sold to Texas for a hefty profit. Sudo is a master of diplomacy.- hasdgfas

Yeah, I ended up going for something more in-between, and I think it makes it significantly weaker. If I want the speed I should have had Groundswells, if I wanted protection I should have added more Spell Pierces. Instead I went in neither direction.In post 151, Sudo_Nym wrote:The big problem is that Infect got a lot slower when Probe was banned; it's a lot harder to get a consistent t3 kill without it.

OCTGN play module tip:
When you drag a card onto the table, some players are finding it slides across the table, usually right in front of them (which has the annoying effect of stretching the play window, making things smaller). To turn this off, right-click the table > Autoscript Settings > Enable/Disable Auto-Alignment. This will toggle the effect off/on, it'll tell you in the chat window if it just enabled or disabled. To ensure things go where you put them and stay there, you should probably just disable all three of the middle entries (Auto-Alignment, Attachment Alignment, and Alignment Anchoring) in the Autoscript Settings list.Success breeds suspicion- Khelvaster

To keep this running smoothly, we're releasing the second trimester pairings a bit early so everyone can start thinking about decks. (Look for your name, the three people you'll be playing are listed afterwards.) Times and deadlines coming in the next post.

As mentioned, we want to try to keep this a bit efficient. We should be able to finish Trimester 1 matches by next Sunday, and we want to try to keep this going without huge breaks for everyone.
Because of that, we are going to have a deadline of next Tuesday night the 28th of March. Please get your decklists in by the end of next Tuesday.jdodge1019: hasjghsalghsakljghs is from vermont

Since you're going to have to enter your decklist into the deck editor at some point anyway, you can export it from the deck editor afterwards and not have to type anything up to send into McMenno. We're not going to require standardized decklists, but it would likely be easiest for everyone.jdodge1019: hasjghsalghsakljghs is from vermont
