I love to play and analyze all kind of games, as long as the luck factor is smaller than the skill factor.

The games I play best are Go (currently around 1dan, highest rank 3dan in 2007) and No-Limit Hold'em Poker. I also enjoy Dominion, Carcasonne, Settlers of Catan, Bluff, Magic the Gathering, Atlantis, Munchkin Quest and similar games.

comment How do I deal with Enchantments while playing mono-red?
@adamjford : Leyline of Sanctity from M11 troubled my red shooter deck a lot, it basically is an instant lose if my opponent has it in his opening hand. After M11 leaves Standard, this will only haunt me in Extended and Legacy.

comment Does Day of Judgment remove hexproof / shrouded creatures?
@edem : You explicitly need the keyword "target" on the card. Day of Judgment does not destroy "target creatures" but "all creatures".

comment Can I choose “Artifact Creature” as a creature type as Adaptive Automaton enters the battlefield?
ghoppe: Interesting... I don't have blue in the deck in question but it might be interesting for other decks. adamjford: I have 4 Tempered Steel in my Deck, they are really key to winning. I also experimented with Steel Overseers, but they are usually too slow to really pay off in my deck.

comment What's a fun but cheap vintage deck to play in a casual MTG game?
Well... After taking a closer look at the Deck - the key mechanic is based on "4x Bazaar of Baghdad"... 800 bucks minimum at least for those 4... but yes, the idea is interesting =).

I love building Decks and I am not looking for a full Deck List. I am more looking for ideas or some basic combos I can build my deck around.

comment What chess-opening does this cat play
+1: The result looks similar, I guess the cat just plays some strange moves that are even weaker than the moves in the classic Scholar's Mate. I'll accept the answer tomorrow if no one comes up with a better variation.
