Is it just me or does anyone else also feel that Shadowmoor is a bit underwhelming?

QUOTE(ho_chg @ May 14 2008, 08:00 PM) To answer your question..no it cannot be returned to your hand from the graveyard. Usually an ability on a creature applies only when it is in the play zone. It only works in other zones, if it says so. You're pretty much spot on that a permanent's abilities can only be played when it is in the in-play zone and when an ability refers to an object it is usually an object in the in-play zone as well. If an ability can be played in another zone it will be stated unless it's clear that the ability can only be played from a particular zone i.e. Faerie Macabre 'Discard Faerie Macabre: Remove up to two target cards in graveyards from the game.' You can only play that ability when Faerie Macabre is in your hand since you can only discard cards that are in your hand. |

QUOTE(evofantasy @ May 15 2008, 04:52 PM) another question is can my opponent response to me playing Faerie Macabre ability (discard into RFG 2 cards in grave)... Yes, the ability can be responded to like anything else that goes on the stack. They can't respond to the discard since that is a cost.and indescent soulstroke rite... i activate its ability and then how it goes? is it i play the creature first and only pass my priority to the opponent or vice versa? thanks... For the Soulstoke, when you play the ability it goes on the stack. Then you have priority. If you pass, your opponent has priority. If he also pass then the ability resolves and you put the Elemental into play. |

QUOTE(Playbook @ May 23 2008, 05:49 AM) 2 Questions on Lark For 1st question, ME's ability resolves setting all creatures P/T to 0/0, state-based effects check and puts all creatures into their owner's graveyard. BD Reveillark triggers and goes onto the stack. At this point, BD is already in the graveyard and so is a legal target. Right?First Question I have a Mirror Entity and Body Double in Play. Body Double is copying a Reveillark in the Graveyard. Graveyard: Reveillark, Venser, Shaper Savant and Mulldrifter. I activate Mirror for zero (X + Y activations to bounce X permanents in play, and to retrieve Y instances of Mulldrifter). My question is whether the Body Double(d) Reveillark that goes to the graveyard, can target the Body Double once it's in the Graveyard, thus permitting the combo to loop. Reveillark says when it leaves play, trigger effect... But can the Body Doubled Reveillark go to the graveyard first before I target it? That's the question I have. Second Question I have a Crovax, Ascendant Hero in Play. Opponent has Spellstutter Sprite. Can the Opponent cast the Spellstutter Sprite and use it to immediately counter a spell (before it dies) (assume no Scion of Oona in play)? Or does the -1/-1 effect take place immediately and the Spellstutter Sprite goes to the graveyard - does the trigger effect take off? Or even does the Spellstutter Sprite come into play, the effect goes on the stack, the Sprite dies, then resolve counter effect without counting the Sprite that died? 2nd question, the SS comes into play as a 0/0 and its ability triggers, state-based effects check and it's put into its owner's graveyard. Trigger ability then goes onto the stack and when it resolves it will counter the spell if it's converted mana cost is X or less, where X is the number of faeries in play not including the SS.

QUOTE(evofantasy @ May 23 2008, 11:10 AM) the 1st q i dunno... Hehe, somehow blur! Corrected, thanks for pointing out but the 2nd one i agree wit fyrekat as when it comes into play the trigger goes on the stack b4 the state base effect kicks in... btw fyrekat u mistaken spellshutter's ability XD Btw, the trigger only goes on the stack after state based effects are checked, not before.

QUOTE(Playbook @ Jun 16 2008, 04:28 AM) Mun Yip! We haven't seen you play Magic for so long... are you still playing? Thought you would have been at the PTQ in KL. So he won the PTQ and selected the plane ticktet instead of US$375?p.s. Vincent Gan wanted US$750 for his place, so the f*cker might as well shove a stick up his ass. He better use the stupid invitation to actually go there, or he's just going to waste a slot in Berlin. p.p.s. But it's really great that Hari's going. He's already planned out his trip. |

QUOTE(kalspawn @ Jun 16 2008, 11:23 PM) Iypoh!!! I want come!!! If car pool than itll be no problem for me one hehehehe... plan it out... if it falls on a right date... i CONFIRM go one... my two senseis are there... time to get beaten again... ouch What dates would be good? Since there are no public holidays in the next few months it'll have to be on a regular weekend right? And can't do on National Day since a number of people will be at GP-Manila.Can I propose sometime in September? Say September 20 & 21? That gives people a bit of rest from after the GP. Then maybe we can do some funky formats like Elder Dragon Highlander! |

QUOTE(XenoFr3ak @ Jun 17 2008, 04:32 PM) This kinda trip won't work if you're thinking purely in terms of a cost-to-benefit ratio. It'll have to be like a holiday trip, go for a weekend to enjoy the food in Ipoh and also play lotsa Magic. People will carpool and share room for hotel for one night. The last time I checked there was this pretty good hotel with a family room for like RM150 or so. 2 double beds and even a lounge area if I'm not wrong, so if you wanna continue gaming thru the night also can. And definitely the room can fit more than 4 ppl if that's what ppl want.As for the gaming, I'm sure we can work something out in terms of prizes for participation. Some nice stuff can be given out for sure. So really, if people are keen on this kinda idea, we'll definitely do something. Hmm, how about we do a poll in MtG Malaysia to see if we can get this baby off the ground? |

QUOTE(Playbook @ Jun 17 2008, 05:47 PM) i'm in with Hari. i'll definitely come, can skip any other events in Klang Valley. Should be real fun! This is essentially the kinda thing I was thinking about. A day trip is just too rushed and if you wanna have gaming and food as well, it would be impossible. I was actually thinking if you guys are game, you could come down Friday after work! Something like:Request - can we do something on Saturday and Sunday? So we are actually spending a night there. We can go out makan-makan also on Saturday night. One day morning trip with evening return may be a bit too tiring and rushed =) We can actually have a like a super Saturday Afternoon Magic ("SAM") session in one format, followed by another event on Sunday. Mid-to-late September sounds good. Friday (evening) - Check into hotel, go for supper. Saturday - Breakfast, then we start gaming. Break for lunch, more gaming. Break for dinner, even more gaming! Then supper again Sunday - Repeat as above, except that you'll return either before or after dinner. This way, you max out on the food exploration and also gaming! |
