Favourite MtG cards?

"Moxes and Lotuses." It's one of the older preconstructed decks.

I suppose a card in your hand can already have "can't be countered."

Then sooner or later, a blue counter comes along with "this spell can counter spells that can't be countered" in the text.

That's crappy?

That said, I've beaten every sliver deck I've encountered with my crappy preconstructed one

Which one?

Invasion's Blowout

The only customization I did was to add some forests for my Thunderscape Apprentices to utilise and then swapped the firescreamer out I think for some more red direct-damage spells.

I'm kind of suprised you never ran across a Sliver deck with a Ward Sliver then.

[Immortal Wombat]

I have done, twice I think. One of them is ok, since I can take them out with red or black.

On the one occasion I was faced with two, one chose red, one black, I think they were too slow on the table, and had very little backup, since I'd been knocking the other slivers off soona s they arrived. I can't imagine I killed them, so I guess I used the Ghitu Fire or Soul Burn direct to the controller and wiped him out before he could kill me. Either that or I just had a huge creature advantage by then...

You're right, those decks look like crap.

Btw, I just saw the coolest Big white creature:

Jareth, Leonine Titan:

it cost {www(3 generic mana)}

Cat Giant Legend

Whenever Jareth, Leonine Titan blocks, it gets +7/+7 until end of turn.
w: Jareth gains Protection from the color of your choice until end of turn

and its a 4/7 creature!!!

I am very surprised of this creature, because i've never seen something like it when I was playing magic (fallen empires - weatherlight).

[DinoDoc]

Christ! You'd need something like a Heedless One or a Nightmare to take that out.

Well, actually none of them since it has protection of all colors.

[Immortal Wombat]

Yeah, I played against a deck that had that. I lost, somewhat unsurprisingly.

Ouch. Ouch. Ouch. Nasty. Vicious.

It could block one of those colossus things without dying.

The only thing to do is to play Mana Short, followed by Control Magic.

Kjeldoran Outpost
Land, Alliances Rare
When Kjeldoran Outpost comes into play, sacrifice a plains or bury Kjeldoran Outpost.
T: Add W to your mana pool.
1W, T: Put a Soldier token into play. Treat this token as a 1/1 white creature.

Nice! Goes great with white weenies.

... Chainer's Edict, Diabolic Edict, Innocent Blood, Mutilate, Wrath of God, Evacuation, and probably many more.

I actually played against this in the pre-release, but the one time my oppo had this is hand he couldn't get the triple-white mana necessary until too late.

If you think Jareth's a buff, check out Exalted Angel, the most sought after card in Onslaught Block:

Exalted Angel
{4}{W}{W}
Creature - Angel
4/5
Flying. Whenever Exalted Angel deals damage, you gain that much life. Morph 2WW (You may play this face down as a 2/2 creature for 3. Turn it face up any time for its morph cost.)

Note that Exalted Angel doesn't require damage to be "combat damage".
