What cards in m10 are likely to be used heavily in the new type2 after rotation? I'm trying to figure out which I should be keeping and which I should just sell now.


So far I've been holding on to these because they are likely to be in decks or are worth like nothing right now:

Birds, Stag, Siege-Gang, Planar Cleansing, Pithing Needle, any duals + gargoyle castle, and just got another baneslayer.

What else is likely to see play? Possibly Vampire Nocturnus if vampires get popular. Honor of the pure is likely. Archdruid? Anything else?

Maybe Earthquake, especially if aggro becomes more popular.

Is baneslayer likely to drop in value at some point? I don't know if I'll even end up making a deck with it and if its likely to be cheaper in the future I'll prob just sell it now and rebuy any I need later.

I doubt it, maybe a few bucks but Elspeth hasn't dropped and baneslayer is played 10x as much

I haven't looked much at constructed, but it seems to me that Baneslayer is way easier to kill than Elspeth, and probably will drop in value once people realize this.

But, to be fair, I've only been playing pauper and drafts and no type II.

Except that when you dont kill baneslayer she just dominates the board and gains you a ****load of life.

They don't want to do that, because it hurts the stores, who are already dying.

Buying any number of MTGO tix for $.90 (prefer min 50 tix per transaction)

Also looking to buy large MTGO or paper collections.

PM me if you have anything you are looking to sell.

Hmm, ended up with like 27ish playables this time. Not sure I did the right thing. Maybe bring in one Cancel for one Horned Turtle?

I like Turtles, but I'd cut a Turtle for Cancel since you have 4 other guys that serve the same purpose and you don't really need more than 1 out at a time. The answer should be much more clear for game 2 based on your opponent's deck, since Turtles are necessary in some matchups and really weak in others.

Can someone explain to me how to PROPERLY run MTGO on Vista? I get kicked from the server everytime I complete a draft, after having played about 5 turns of my first match. The message I get is "unrecoverable error, memory that is being written to may be damaged" or something along those lines. If someone tells me what I´m doing wrong, I´ll ship you a bit of cash on FT or wherever. MTGO support/FAQ have not been helpful, I think I´ve tried everything.

Please help!

PS: Just send me a PM. Thanks!

MTGO works fine on Vista for me, but I didn't do anything special whatsoever to get it to run. Try running memtest to see if you do have corrupted memory - which seems to be what the error msg is implying.

How do I do this (the memtest aspect). Also, do I have to open any specific ports? Since the program works fine for me up until the first match starts (and then won´t let me log on until after I have been eliminated) I don´t think this is the case.

Works fine for me on Vista as well. If nothing else, I would try the old uninstall/reinstall.

Over the past 2 days I've opened nearly 2 boxes in drafts, Sealed and just a straight box purchase. Only got 6 Fetches and some of the really crappy mythics. One guy I know got 7 Fetches and a Lotus Cobra in one box, so that made me a sad panda.

average is around 3fetches per box(10 per 121packs aka 3.33boxes)

the mythics are pretty valuable right now so bad luck if you end up with the sucky ones

between 5boxes and trading I'm upto 30fetches(casual players hate them and love ****ty cards so its easy to stockpile them)
