Phil Writes About Cube: White Cards in Shadows over Innistrad for Peasant Cube

By -
With Shadows over Innistrad fully spoiled, I thought it would be a good time to look at the different cards that I might want to add to my Peasant Cube. For reference my cube can be found here: Cubetutor Link

Let's dig right into white cards.

 Paranoid Parish-Blade
This Human Soldier is a 3/2 for 3, but if you have four or more card types in your graveyard, he is a 4/2 with first strike. In general, I am trying to push graveyard interactions/themes in my cube so Shadows over Innistrad came at the exact right time. My 3-drop section for white is pretty mediocre right now if you ask me, so this creature should help out there. I really like him in White Weenie and Wx Aggro decks.


Pious Evangel / Wayward Disciple

 This 3 casting 2/2 Human Cleric has a familiar "Soul Sisters" effect of whenever it or another creature enter the battlefield under your control, you gain 1 life. This can be good for aggro or token decks, but the added part of paying two, tapping it, and sacrificing another PERMANENT to transform it into a Blood Artist-like creature puts it over the top for me. I really really like the sacrificing another permanent part of the cost. Not only can you sacrifice your creatures, you can also sacrifice maybe a Tumble Magnet or something that is out of charge counters or something. I could be wrong, but I think this guy is good and am looking forward to playing him.


Topplegeist

This is 1 casting 1/1 with flying looks pretty fun. Whenever Topplegiest enters the battlefield, top target creature an opponent controls, and at the beginning of each opponent's upkeep, if you have 4 or more type cards in your graveyard, tap target creature that player controls. In the early game, it comes down and taps an opponent's blocker or a potential threat, but then in the late game, it controls their best threat or taps down a creature that might have a tap effect like Pious Evangel. I am very much looking forward to playing this Spirit in my aggro decks.

Look for more colors as I continue through Shadows over Innistrad!

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 wr...

Phil Writes About Sims 3: Forensic Specialist: Dynamic DNA Profiler

Here  is a link to the list of all Lifetime Wishes For this Lifetime wish, a sim needs to gets to level ten of the Police career path (Forensics Branch). Carl Smith decided to set out on this journey. Once he got a job at the Police Station, he set off on a quest to get in shape. Working out in front of an old TV can only get you so far, though.  After working this way up the ranks, Carl found he needed more skills like painting, logic, and writing reports. He managed to scrap enough funds together to purchase an easel. This led to selling painting to buy a chessboard and a computer.  Years of grinding away at these skills finally resulted in Carl reaching his goal of Dynamic DNA Profiler!
