#3 - 2008 Nov 19 - End-Of-Turn - Danesh Surendran, Shane Remelt, and Val Trevino - Ep. #3 - Listener Discretion is Advised

Posted on 19 November 2008 by Christopher E. Otwell

This week the boys of Team HC discuss some more extended. We would like to apologize ahead of time for this weeks very racy show. Be warned. We look at some innovative deck lists sent in by our listeners. James Demink is this week’s winner of our comment contest. Four packs of Shards of Alara is on the way. If you would like a free draft set plus one send in some unique deck ideas. Also a correction, the Qualifier tournament for the Gold tournament is on Sunday, November 30. Check out the details at our store at: www.myspace.com/skirmishgames

    Awesome show guys. Finally a podcast that appeals to my deep seeded homoerotic urges. Keep up the good work! Also the new guy Victor is my kind of player. Anyone that goes to a tourney with four Phage, the Untouchable is a god in my book.

    P.S. Victor could you post or email the deck list for that artifact lock deck?

    Unfortunately, it was Matt who gave that comment, but I will gladly take credit for it if it has become that memorable :)

  3. matt Says:

  5. Conley Says:

    Alright, that does it, I’m starting the pool, Bets on whether matt^ is drunk or foreign, Foreign is paying 2 to 1 right now.

  6. Danesh Says:

    What are the odds that he is a drunk foreigner? and yes magus is way to slow. it was just banter. Its how tech comes about.

  7. matt Says:

    conly i just type really fast im not drunk nor forgn

  8. Danesh Says:

    Nor does he use punctuation. Thus proving his drunk foreign-ness. Time to collect money from the bookie.

  9. ryan Says:

  13. Conley Says:

    I like that an undisclosed amount turned into 20 bucks, I need to play this game more often!

  14. Casey Says:

    Who the heck are you guys? i didnt listent to the cast due to the time but ive never heard of a Team HC, and i know most of the houston crowds… so yeah go join texasmagiczoneDOUTCOMNESS

  15. val Says:

    team h.c consist of eddie, denesh, mikee, shane, will, vic, terry, chris, both jeffs, goerge and i. most of us come from different crews and do well in atleast two different formats(type 2, legacy, edh, draft, sealed or exstended).

  16. Shan3@EOT Says:

    Pretty shure I know who you are Casey. Glasses used to have long hair? If so you’ve been to the shop we cast from Skirmish. It’s like the only one in the Pasadena, LaPorte, Deer Park, Galveveston area.

  17. Casey Says:

    LOL Glasses and long hair describes like 50% of MTG players… hell while we are talking about the player base lets say obesity and include another 50% :P…

    Anyways no i dont think ive been to Skirmish before… tend to stick with 3rd coast and midnight when i come down to houston. I live in east texas so not much going on out here.

  18. Shan3 @ EOT Says:

    Never mind then another case of mistaken identity im shure. I havent been to midnight in quite some time alot of really good players play over their but it’s a good drive for me.

    Sealed Deck
    • 2+ players
    • Each player needs 1 Tournament pack and 3 booster packs
    • Players simply open their tournament packs and the cards from three additional booster packs and build a deck from the cards they opened. Guidelines require a minimum deck size of 40 cards and allow players to add as many basic lands (Plains, Islands, Swamps, Mountains, and Forests) to their card pools as they like.

    Booster Draft
    • 4-8 players
    • Each player needs 3 booster packs
    • At the start of a Booster Draft, each player opens a booster pack and picks the card he or she wants from it. (You can't see the cards that the other players draft.) Then each player passes the rest of the pack to his or her left. You pick up the pack that was passed to you, select a card, and pass the rest to your left. This process continues until all the cards have been drafted. Next, each player opens a second pack, but this time, you pass the pack to your right. After all those cards are drafted, you open the third pack and pass to the left again.
      Once all the packs have been drafted, players build decks from the cards they selected, adding as many basic lands (Plains, Islands, Swamps, Mountains, and Forests) to their decks as they like. Each deck must have at least 40 cards.
    Tribal Wars
    • One-third of every deck must be of a single creature type (e.g. "Merfolk" or "Beast")
    • Each deck must contain at least 60 cards, and players may build decks using Standard, Extended, Legacy, or Vintage deckbuilding rules.
    • You can use creatures of other creature types, but they do not count towards the "1/3 of single creature type" rule.

    Singleton
    • aka "Highlander"
    • No two cards in a player's deck can share a name unless they're basic lands (Plains, Islands, Swamps, Mountains, and Forests). Players can use Standard, Extended, Legacy, or Vintage deckbuilding rules.
