MTG Pack: Dragons of Tarkir #9

By -


Each time I open a pack, I want to write a little bit about each card to make sure that I think about each one individually as it relates to prismatic. When I'm done writing, I am going to add the non-rare or foil cards to my "Phil Plus Syd" prismatic deck. If you don't know what prismatic is or want to see what the decklist currently is, here is the link: By Card Type and By Card Color!


Center Soul

I wrote about it here: Dragons of Tarkir #1



Coat with Venom

One black for a black instant that gives target creature +1/+2 and deathtouch until end of turn. I consider this card a bad removal spell in prismatic. It can give a blocker deathtouch to pick off that pesky attacker your opponent has. I'm not sure how it could be used more optimally.

Anticipate

I wrote it here: Dragons of Tarkir #5



Sandsteppe Scavenger

One green and four generic for a 2/2 green hound scout with when it enters the battlefield, Bolster two. With the Bolster two, at the least, it is a 4/4 for five. Not really the best. But, if it could give turn a 1/1 into a 3/3, then it could be fine. I'm not too excited about this card.



Negate

I wrote about it here: Dragons of Tarkir #2



Spidersilk Net

I wrote about it here: Dragons of Tarkir #1



Vuturous Aven

One black and three generic for a 2/3 black bird shaman with flying and Exploit. If you Exploit, draw two card and loser two life. I like having flying creatures, and a 2/3 flyer for four is not the worst. This guy could also be a four mana draw two and lose two if you need more cards. Overall, this card has a couple different uses for a couple different situations. That means that he is probably going to do well in prismatic.



Scion of Ugin

Six generic for a 4/4 flying colorless dragon spirit. This card can probably finish games. Flying is huge, and being colorless lets it be cast for any six lands no matter what they are. This card should be really awesome in prismatic. I am looking forward to casting it in the future.



Ainok Survivalist

One green and one generic for a 2/1 green hound shaman with Megamorph. When it is turned face up, destroy target artifact or enchantment an opponent controls. This card is exactly what I like to see. It is a creature and a card that can get rid of problem cards. Disenchant is sort of narrow to have in a deck like prismatic but having it on a creature makes it a lot better.



Youthful Scholar

One blue and three generic for a 2/2 blue human wizard with when he dies, draw two cards. This card is fine. If I ever draw him, I will probably just keep attacking with him until he dies so I can draw two cards. Time will tell how good he is in prismatic.


Thank you,
Philip

What to expect at a RunDisney Princess Half Marathon

By Anonymous -

Our first Disney run was this past February 2015, and we were in no way properly prepared so here is what to expect.  RunDisney Expo:   The expo was a little overwhelming but definitely worth it. There is a lot to look at and free items, so take your time! We were too excited and wanted to get into the parks as soon as we could, but my next race we will be there longer. They had everything from a runners pouch for your phone, keys, etc.to the RunDisney signature shoes!   Before the Expo you go to pick up your race bib , t shirt, and a small bag of goodies. BE WARNED! If you are going with a male, the t shirts may be a not so manly color, and he might be upset. But you'll understand because he is doing a princess themed race with you.    Morning of the race: STRETCH! I bet your saying "Duh, you are doing a half marathon" but seriously stretch every little bit of your beautiful body. If your thinking "I don't need to stretch my wri

#Blessed

By Anonymous -
#blessed There are certain things that are blessings. A new baby in the family, a sick loved one feeling better, or even going out to lunch with a friend you haven't seen in a while. But a pair of new shoes when you already have a ton is not a blessing. A new kitchen table or a new TV is not a blessing. Growing up in a church I honestly rarely heard the words “blessing” or “blessed”. When someone says they are “blessed they are basically saying “God is shinning down on me to get this material thing and I'm going to post on Facebook about it.” Instead what they should be saying is “I'm so thankful to have this new TV” or “I am proud of myself for working hard and saving up for my new TV.” I was scrolling down my news feed and saw that a girl who competed in a vocal competition, got a very high rating. She posted “I'm very blessed to have revived a high rate at the competition this past weekend.” No. That's not a blessing. Maybe she could have said she was blesse
