Kilz88 What do you think about putting money into pithing needle? Is it worth it? Also, id like to see some of the decklists for the good kamigawa decks... Well, if you want to go for pithing needle, go for it. Right now they're the cat's meow, but I don't know how long the novelty will last. I think it's much more powerful in extended then in standard, but you also have to think about what 9th and Ravnica bring. Here's a build of Mr.T, Kamigawa Block version. Land: 23 4 Forbidden Orchard 9 Swamp 10 Island: Creatures: 7 3 Toshiro Umezawa 2 Keiga 2 Kokusho Spells: 24 4 Mana Leak 4 Hinder 3 Rend Flesh 3 Horobi's Whisper 4 Gifts Ungiven 3 Murmurs from Beyond 3 Reach Through Mists (or Peer Through Depts) Other: 6 3 Night of Soul's Betrayal 3 Sensei's Divining Top it's a really good deck, but it really depends on if Mana Leak gets re-printed in 9th (which it probably will be). Kami-Toolbox is the deck I'm playing for regionals, and the list is posted above. If you look at Pro-Tour Philidelphia, you can get an idea of what the metagame will look like.

This will probably be my last post in this guild before Regionals I would just like to say that I'm going to the regionals in Maryland. In Baltimore at some college I think. If any of you are going to be there perhaps we could meet play a few games and such during breaks in rounds and everything. My name is Travis G. Pollock so if you hear my name and know me from Gaia just leme know XD I like meeting new people from gaia Irl. But anyhow I would like to wish everyone good luck for regionals! w00t
((I might check back to see if anyone from this guild is going to THAT regionals in Maryland if so pm me or something. Later))

Why deep hours? I seem to get this question a lot. because with spiketail or nexus he's a 2/2 for 2 that draws me cards. The tech however is nexus. turning nexus into a creature swining using ninjutsu on the deep hours drawing the card then oh look. Play a land for the turn. Nexus again. For free. so it really says I gained a 2/2 for 2 without losing a creature. Plus slapping a sword of fire and ice on him makes him a 4/4 beast.

Well, im back from regionals and after round 6 out of 9 i was 5 and 1 with my scout and nail. But then i proceeded to go 5-2...5-3...6-3. So i got like 40th or something. But out of 345, thats pretty damn good. But im done with tooth. All ya'll throwin down all those kami decks...I hope you dont plan to play that junk in standerd after 9th, If you havent checked the full spoiler, you should. Mtgvortex has it. Look for it on google. Its gonna change a bunch of stuff...Craziness. I see white weenie being great, blue something with tramautize...(thats right, its getting reprinted), and im liking my deck idea. Im gonna start a new thread for 9th edition chat...Look for it. Id like for all of you to check out the spoiler and come tell me what ya think...Thanks a lot! mrgreen wink
