I try to play as much 2-power creatures as possible for Lark. I have troubles with Kiki-jiki's manacost so maybe i will cut him. I tested it only against UGW Rock and its 50:50. I only lose because of Volrath's Stronghold / Reccuring nightmare / Genesis - i should add some grave hate.

I would be grateful for some suggestions.

Hi, I have troubles with new masterbase. I downloaded it from slightlymagic.com, unpacked it and replaced old master.mwbase and sets.dat files. I see M10 cards in top grid, there is a view of the card, but when i put them into bottom grid, in the view is only back side of the card. When i save it, i can't load this deck or play with it. I tried to reinstall mws, but it's same. I have same problem with Conflux, in older versions of masterbase it was ok.

I have to do something wrong, but i don't know what . Can someone help me, please?

There is more than 200 cards from M10 known, so what do you think about them?

i choosed some interesting cards:

solid white flyer
3WW
Baneslayer Angel
Creature - Angel   
Flying, first strike, lifelink, protection from Demons and from Dragons
5/5

much better crusade
1W
Honor of the Pure   
Enchantment   
White creatures you control get +1/+1.

maybe this can be used in Highlander, who knows
1W
Open the Vaults   
Sorcery   
Return all artifact and enchantment cards from all graveyards to the battlefield under their owner's control.
poor replacement for wrath :/

3WWW
Planar Cleansing   
Sorcery   
Destroy all nonland permanents.


another persuan
3UU
Mind Control   
Enchantment - Aura   
Enchant Creature
You control enchanted creature.

maybe better goblin king
1RR
Goblin Chieftain   
Creature - Goblin   
Haste
Other Goblin creatures you control get +1/+1 and have haste.
2/2

priest of titania and elvish champion in one card, nice
1GG
Elvish Archdruid   
Creature - Elf Druid   
Other Elf creatures you control get +1/+1.
tap: Add  to your mana pool for each Elf you control.
2/2

upgraded trained armodon
1GG
Great Sable Stag   
Creature - Elk   
Great Sable Stag can't be countered.
Protection from blue and from black (This creature can't be blocked, targeted, dealt damage, or enchanted by anything blue or black.)
3/3




I dont like M10, because blue is very poor there, but red is overpowered. Absence of Wrath of God and no good counters (I dont consider remove soul, negate and cancel as adeqautely counters). It looks like WotC is supporting only aggro. This edition will not have big influence on Highlander. But how could Wizards reprint Haunting Echoes. Most annoying black card ever.

What do you think about idea of monoB stax?
I've inspired at EDH Braids stax. Advantage of this is that its not vulnerable to Blood Moon, BtB or Magus of the Moon. Also there arent problems with mana screw. I play lot of land destructing spells to slow opponent and then lock him with Winter orb / mishra's helix / Smokestack etc.

maybe i could add Shambling Swarm or magus of the abbys or infest/decree of pain

I didnt test it, because i haven't enough free time now. Every opinion is welcome

Hi, is possible to host a game on mws without public IP address? i tried to set NAT, but it didnt work. Maybe i made it wrong.

hi, i've tried to create Rw goblins last night with global land destruction spells and there it is.

   Enlightened Tutor  - helps me to find winter orb, seal of cleansing against annoying enchantments or impeding disaster
   Shared Animosity  - its little bit expensive, but get piledrivers from all goblins? why not
   Rift Bolt
   Tangle Wire
   Lightning Helix
   Char
   Magma Jet

   Relic of Progenitus   - cant play without gy removing

   Dragon Fodder
   Impending Disaster  - 7 lands in game? no problem

I thought about Price of progress, but it shouldnt be good with armageddon. Fireblast, path to exile / sword to plowshares could by very helpful, but i dont know what to cut :/

What do you think about this deck?
