What an idiot... there is a LAN party this weekend.

LAN > Magic.

EDIT:  Also, that looks like a beast of a build.  Can't wait to blast it down. 

[LightBringer]

Umm... what did I tell you brent?? about the lan??? and not posting about it!!! Way to go! you blew it!!

[TheCrow]

I will be at the lan with all my jacknut attitude.... if I knew where it was.

[poultryg3ist]

Did I say LAN?  I meant CAN.  It is a different Card Game that we play at Aarons sometimes.  It stands for Crabs and Newts.  It's pretty cool... seriously...

I just realized I can use Gigadrowse to tap a permanent that doesn't normally tap, effectively allowing me to use Dream Leash to steal any permanent in the game!

Now I wish I'd bought four Gigadrowse's. That combo would be perfect for this pesky artifact deck my friend has...

Also, if you guys are getting together, just give me a ring.

About to make the order to finish up this deck! This thing's going to be a beast, but at the same time I'm going to have a deck of a sideboard to switch things in and out. Here's the order.

1 Sorin Markov

1 Jace Beleren

2 Vampire Nighthawk

4 Blood Seeker

2 Vampire Hexmage

4 Gatekeeper of Malakir

2 Skeletal Vampire

1 Kalitas, Bloodchief of Ghet

1 Malakir Bloodwitch

Good deal man. I'm thinking about having a little Worldwake party.

Feb 5 is the release date. I'll let you know if we are getting together. 

[PinballWizard]

yeah, so I guess you didn't that party or I'm no longer loved in Ft. Smith...

[LightBringer]

Oh you are loved!... you are loved... . .. . So yeah the party is yet to be had! We have Worldwake ordered and coming in, hopefully, some time this week. I will be making plans soon, and will let you know.

[PinballWizard]

aww, Thanks buddy 

[Nail.exe]

Brent, you silly sausage.

I updated the list! Sixty cards, new vampires, new other things as well including some kickass nonbasic lands. Every card on the list at the moment is in hand, and in the deck.

A few other cards such as Sorin Markov (and maybe Kalitas, Bloochief of Ghet, I can't remember...) should be on their way in an order. I'll update the list appropriately.

I am notably planning to keep a large sideboard on deck with this one.  Some more Vampire Hexmages and some Smoldering Butchers, and the like.

my magic deck gently weeps...
