Craw, Yavimaya and Barbtooth Wurms all fit the bill.
They tried to bury us. They didn't know that we were seeds. 2018 Midterms. Get your shit together.
I checked my balance and I have points left so I'm definitely getting this. Hopefully out by the end of the day.
This is another advantage to being on Xbox. No screwups on the rules.
Remember Carcassone? I can't even picture totalling up the score in such a game by hand.
Again not price checking but I assume that cards like BoP and similar premier level cards still go for insane prices, when I left magic if your deck was multicolor and splashed green at all four BoP was likely in it. at the local card store if you were starting from the ground 4 BoP would run you 85 bucks if you were a regular at the shop, 110 if you weren't. (local shop gave 20% off stickered price to players who played at least 2 FNM or drafts a month.)
Of course by then I had my mind set on the game so I'll still be getting it. Wouldn't want to dissapoint myself now.
I'm trying to download now and I get a stupid error message saying I cant download it now.
Birds are ~10 now, and hardly played in any deck besides dark bant, which is a tier 2 deck.
Like I said, coming in from SCRATCH, if you wanted to flat out buy a netdeck it'd cost 200-300. If you are moderately skilled and decided to draft beforehand, or had older cards for trade, you can easily trade into most of the deck buying a few hard to find rares and spend maybe 50-100. If you can't get over this hump, then playing competitively probably isn't for you as this is the easiest part.
wooooooooooo link is up. queue it now!

First time I've ever seen an achievement bubble that made me angry.

Where are you supposed to get this fancy schmancy promo code for a fancy schmancy shiny shiny Garruk?

Sweet bought'd now in 7 hours I can download it.
Another flaw with this is the trading thing, some people are awesome at trading, some people basically give cards away to people who are awesome at trading. Assuming anyone can trade for what they need is some what flawed. We used to play a sealed trade game for money at tourn. some of the kids could turn 5 packs into moxes in about 8 hrs. some kids turned 5 packs into a handful of standard playable rares and uncommons. Not everyone is a salesman.
Either way I am sure magic is a different game then when I left it and I don't doubt this XBLA will get me to go to at least some prerelease events again, because I miss thats stuff so much. I just hope I can get a couple friends into it too so I am not the semi creepy 30 year old guy there by himself that most of my friends and I would talk about at 20.

It's kind of an awesomely scary feeling beating a man at Magic and realizing that on Monday he's going to use you to demonstrate kicks to the white belts.

I am at work... I can't even attempt it before that.
I think you may be right, but it has been something like 16 years since I've played the game.
Until you posted this, I had no idea that 1500 point cards existed. I only ever see 1600 or 4000 point cards here in the States.
Mega Man 9 > Duke Nukem, by the way.

I'm always 100 point short of two games when I buy one.
I'll get to play it on, oh say, effin' sunday when I finally get back to the states. Sigh.
I guess the reasoning is that you will never be able to buy just one of them?
Don't worry since Live is f'd up we not be able to play until then either.
But they didn't say no with removing our MS points the bastards.
I've seen 800. I usually just buy points through live, even though they're assholes who give you 1000 points which is aesthetically pleasing, but full of 200 points of worthless.
Goes to 1% and stops for me too.
Apparently this is an issue that can happen after LIVE has a service upgrade, like yesterday. Try again in a couple of hours.
Good to see that the part of the server that takes my money for Points is doing ok.
Zune cards are like XBox Live point cards, but with smaller increments. The points all go to the same place though, so you can use them if you don't want to have left over points sitting in your Live account until the end of time.
Edit looks like I was wrong... deleted.
Wait really? How?
Is that a 14/12 green creature in one of the screenshots?
BUGGERSTICKS.
(I'll probably still get it though)
EDIT: source
2009 is a year of Updates - one every Monday. Hopefully. xx
Hmm... digging further it looks as tho they have, I was told by a friend they just gave you 10 songs worth of points.
It's a green deck, what do you expect?

Yeah, that's how it is. I thought maybe there was a magic way to change the song credits into ms points.
Would you really want to build a full deck with only a controller? This obviously isn't 100% fully accurate MTG but for $10 it should be pretty damn awesome.
If only..... It honestly wouldn't hurt them tho, since many people would rather buy some of the content that isn't "All you can eat" like videos or xbl games.
I don't know of any 14/12 green creatures. Did they create new cards for these decks?
