      I just wanted to say hello to all of you old timers and hopefully I will get back to testing decks or at least just copying team Meandeck's lists. My sister and brother-in-law play at Brash Brewery in Houston. I currently live near Knoxville TN, and I am only interested in playing with people 21 and over since I am old and have already done the hyper competitive tournament scene and am finished with that. I am happy to play in relaxed tournaments or even better a semi-casual play group to play casual decks with old card (e.g. Lands Edge/ Land Tax/CoP red. I also think Copper Tablet is AWESOME). If this is the wrong forum to post in my apologies and feel free to move to the correct one. PS: I am starting a campaign to Make the Abyss Great Again ๐Ÿ˜‰ My favorite deck was Oscar Tan's Keeper ("Britney Spears Boobs" Edition) and I hope to play some games in real life at some point.

          Unfortunately there isn't a Meandeck Mentor or a Meandeck anything anymore but there is a "Mystic" Mentor ๐Ÿ˜‚

            Welcome back! You may remember The Atog Lord, aka Rich Shay, as a high profile Vintage player. Within the past year they printed a functional Gremlin reprint, and I am looking to usurp Rich as the king of the artifact sacrifice engines.

              @The-Gremlin-Lord Indeed I do remember Rich. I blew a top 16 appearance at TMD Open while playing against him. He was super polite and friendly, and played his deck perfectly. I wish you luck in besting someone as great as he was (is?).

                Hey thank you! And indeed, welcome back!

                Functional Reprint? He doesn't even sacrifice to AtogAtog. Much worse. Barely playable.

                    You mean Mister Dies-To-Shatter? Making Arcbound Ravager a Beast and not an Atog was the worst decision Wizards has made in a long time.

                      On par with or worse than Viziers not being Advisors?

                        Glad I could reignite the spark! I hope we get to a chance to play again soon, and hopefully we'll have a Goyf invitational that you can make sometime the trip to TX for.

                          That is pretty bad. But not Atog bad.
