Are multicolor decks in any color combination viable in modern Magic? I cringe a little inside every time I see a deck with 41 or 61 cards. |

Can I activate a bloodrush ability at instant speed? @Tynam same with artifact or any other activated ability. I'm having trouble nailing down the ruling that clarifies that, though. We may have to wait a week for the new comp rules to be released to clarify that. |

MTG Gatecrash Simic Strategies for a Prerelease event If you have 3 green spells, 3 forests, and 1 UG spell, very likely. |

MTG Gatecrash Simic Strategies for a Prerelease event I don't see how you can see green doesn't have high toughness or power... Green has the most and biggest creatures of any color. In terms of 4+ pow or tgh, breakdown is blue and black with 11, white at 12, red with 14, and green with 15. Most of red's come from gruul, just as most of blue's come from simic. In terms of mono color, U and W are 5, B is 4, R is 6 and G is 7. Green IS the big creature color. So you slop down blue evolvers, and pump them up with cheap green fatties. Problem solved. |

How do Snapcaster Mage and Cipher cards interact? Right on. Even though I bet most people will 'tuck' the spell card to show it's ciphered, technically the spell card is in the graveyard or exile zone as appropriate. Just because we place the card on the battlefield as an easy reminder, the game considers the card to be in exile. |

Could I turn Mistform Dreamer into a Shrine? If only [mtg:Magical Hacker] had the subtype Teenage. Then you could have a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle. |

Can a creature token represent a different creature token? I think this answer is the best - it gets to the core of the issue: clarity. You have to make your board state as clear and simple as reasonably possible. If you had a deck that generates lots of soldier tokens and saproling tokens, it would be very wise to have either a set of white and a set of green dice, or a good supply of token cards. It would be a poor decision to have a lot of the same color dice. |

Can I Birthing Pod a token to get a creature with a CMC of 1? Does this mean the resulting token has no artist, too, until it is targeted by Brushstroke Paintermage of course? :-) |

Poker texas holdem combinations: tie or not tie? @sitnaltax For sure, I thought I added the commnunity qualifier to that like I did to full house... looks like I omitted it. I wrote it pretty late :) |

How long can I wait before choosing to counter a spell? The most elegant way to put it is "As long as it's still a spell". Of course, that requires an understanding of when something stops being a spell and starts being something on the battlefield, stack and resolving, et al. |

How long can I wait before choosing to counter a spell? shujaa is spot on there - you get a single sorcery (or other spell at sorcery speed, i.e. any non-instant, non-flash spell) and any number of subsequent instant or flash spells played in response. |

Is Fluxx a game of skill or luck? A game cannot be both a game of skill and luck, as the two are mutually exclusive. By your logic, poker is a game of both skill and luck. The definition of a game of luck is that there is no strategy that will increase your odds of winning. Most games have a random element involved but are true games of skill. In fact, one of the greatest skills of a player is making choices that remove elements (consider Magic the Gathering). I don't want to be all William Blake/CS Lewis on you, but the two are mutually exclusive. Having random elements in a game does not make it a game of luck. |

Nivmagus and cipher card rulings Although, I have to admit, the idea of growing by +2 for every combat damage is quite appealing! |

Identify a numbers game where you strike out numbers Is it the same numbers every time? Seems like the replay value would be minimal if it didn't change. |

Can instants be played after I decide not to block? Infect would have a really had time winning if it wasn't for post-block pumping :) |
