I have an unfortunate tendency towards wanting to play massive decks that have multiple themes and ways to win. I am constitutionally incapable of sticking with a 40 or 60 card deck. Decks with hundreds of cards are more what I gravitate towards. I'm going to try an all-Sliver deck with none of the extra goodies that I typically like to stick in. This should be closer to 120 cards at the moment.

Oh, wow. Well, then, gratz, 3 win in a row with such a deck is pretty amazing I suppose.
My own tendency is to use as few things with more than one mana symbol as possible, and grindy rogue strats which make elitists and people who dig obvious power sneer. Oh, and IRL it was always beating up rich noobs who'd buy the latest tech with commons and uncommons they never herd of. I once made a grown man cry when he realized that my sub 50$ deck wasn't in fact a pile of random junk, and that he could beat anyone in the tourney with his 1000$ deck but me. Having an extensive knowlege of how, why and when most individual cards in mtg were designed has it's upsides ^^

Unfortunately, I think I have to reset, as I believe I forgot to select
Time Spiral block sets when I set up this quest. Damn shame.

Speaking of that, whats with the random Betrayers of Kamigawa unlock?
And, how are you with drafting? I mean, if you're unhappy with your pools, it's a good way to get ton of cards. I'm 7 - 0, but I lost in the finals of my 3rd Zendikar draft (was playing them for the basic lands, lol).

It's fun, has multiple angles of attack, wacky sinergies, ways to win, and tons of janky crap in it which works fine so far. Gotta decide where to go with it, though.
So, errm, I go to another world now, or what?

After 40 matches, you travel. The idea is that people will get to all of the worlds included with Forge by the time they've completed 320 matches.

I am locking this topic. As per suggestions received in another thread, I'm setting up a challenge in a different way.
