core sets rotate when the new core set is released (in this case, 10th rotates with the release of M10) and blocks rotate when the block that is released two years afterward is released (in this case, lorwyn block rotates with zendikar's release)

[DaniKiller]

i recall hearing orange guy saying that m10 and m11 will be in the same format

not 10th and m10

[SirenoftheVoid]

double negative is an awesowe answer to cascade.cascade is just a ridiculously powerful mechanic

[ohmypeterxx]

im totally going to stab you. artifact. when this comes into play, choose a player. you are totally going to stab that player. in a minute. seriously, just...just after I EAT THIS BAGEL you are SCREWED mister. haha did anyone else see that? i just saw something about a bagel and i was like wait a minute, what?! then i went back and looked lol

[BottledFairie]

I'll guess you're one of those aggro guys... I like my aggro too, but CONTROL FTW.

[Skateboykyle]

It's not standard then. Many decks in vintage and such win turn 2 almost every time. Those games are not fun. I like the slow paced better.

[RabbitsSoul]

Ehh they can be slow but they can also be extremely fast my standard deck kills turn 5 most games

[shotler]

is it just me or do standard decks seem soo slow... i've seen alot of faster decks but those ppl dont go to tournies...this is kinda annoying how they keep showing such slow decks

[moosemooseson]

sanity grinding or fog are matched nicely against a deck which mills half of it self any way. they just need the right disruption.
