XCB Common Rules
Your deck is composed of X cards which all start in your hand.
Your library contains 0 cards.
Random effects always go in their owner's opponent's favor.
You can see your opponent's hand, so you make the best possible play.
You don't lose as a result of not being able to draw a card.
You play each opponent twice; once going first and once going second.

For each win, you score 3 points.
For each draw, you score 1 point.
For each loss, you score 0 points.

You may not submit a deck that can win before the opponent's first main phase.
You may not submit a deck that can force an opponent to lose two or more cards from his or her hand in a single turn.

Besides that the game works the same as a normal game of magic.
You may only play one land per turn unless a card specifically alters that.
You must have the mana to be able to play cards unless otherwise able to do so.
You and your opponent each begin with 20 life.

Rules for this XCB Round Specifically:
1) Deck size is determined by whichever player has the first turn each game. If Player Noonya uses a 2CB deck and Player Bidness uses a 3CB, the first round will be played as if it was 2CB and the second round will be played as 3CB. This gives advantages and disadvantages to all XCB sizes.

2) You may only play up to 5CB. That means all deck sizes from 2-5 are legal.

3) Send me your lists in order of how you want them played. Whenever you are limited your cards will be chosen in the exact order so if you send me:
1 - Black Lotus
2 - Show and Tell
3 - Form of the Dragon
4 - Mishra's Factory

If you face a player with a 3CB deck one game you won't be able to use the 4th card - Mishra's Factory

4) This is a Vanishing XCB. All winning and excessively popular decks will get hit with a 5-Round ban. After the end they become legal again. This will ensure a slightly fresh format each week.

Banned List
All Ante cards
All Promo cards not available on Gatherer/Autocard

Thoughtseize
Chain of Vapor

Sign-Up: You have until July 28th to send in your deck.

Big Hint: Play a deck that can compete at all XCB's levels if you want the best score. Some decks will fail miserably if it requires all the cards in the deck to work.

[final_press]

Bring it on baby!:zelda:

Pathetic excuse for a deck to be mailed to you shortly!

[Castle]

man just had to bring in thoughtseize...didn't you (:hoppingmad:)

ill pm the decklist soon

[Maleficent]

It had its five rounds of sitting out just like everyone else. :P

Note: The cards unbanned last round are still unbanned this round. And @NMR, The Rack is still available! :D

[Cashew]

Okay, so in, got a truly evil design I think.

[pickles]

I'm in. I'll need a couple days to throw it together. I hope to build on my success from last round.

[Niv-Mizzet_Rulez!]

So we are even banning basic lands eh? Anyways I'm in. Now how to exploit the The Rack this time.....:eek: I mean......now how am I going to exploit Squire this time.:paranoid:

[Castle]

So we are even banning basic lands eh?

was it really necessary to ban swamps when you could just use mox jet? the chance is there will be only 1 land if any at all

[FrycHiKn]

Deck Sent! :D


BtW... that lion eye's+Wurm is getting famous!!

Also... OMG!!!! Banning swamp? The humanity...

[Maleficent]

So we are even banning basic lands eh?

If they can win tournaments, they're obviously too powerful. :paranoid: Also, you still have: Mox Jet, Snow-Covered Swamp, Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth, Underground Sea and friends, Vault of Whispers, etc etc.

[Ryuzaki]

was it really necessary to ban swamps when you could just use mox jet? the chance is there will be only 1 land if any at all

You have no idea how broken Swamps truly are, do you?

[FrycHiKn]

Wait! *MGS "!" sound*


If Swamp is banned, snow-covered swamp shouldn't?

[Maleficent]

A Snow-Covered Swamp didn't win yet (that I know of)... besides, there's a huge difference between the two. :P

[Niv-Mizzet_Rulez!]

Deck sent

[Zhou_tai]

im in again sending deck to you now.

[tfp]

I'll try my first XCB ;)
Deck was sent...

[blokhed]

I think I put in too much control... and not enough win.

[Death_By_Beebles]

I think I put in too much control... and not enough win.

Well, the first few times you play, you might not do as well as you'd want, but you'll get the hang of it :)

I submitted a deck too, incidentally :)

[Maleficent]

Holy crapzorz, that's a lot of people at once. XD

Note: Had to change 2 cards in my deck due to a rules misunderstanding. -_- They were both Energy Chambers (which I planned to use to boost Mishra's Factory by making it a creature at the end of the opponent's turn, but that doesn't work. :(). So I went with a previous idea I had. But if that's not alright with everyone, I'll just switch back and fail miserably. :P

[Maleficent]

Hm, no objections then? All I need is one. :P (Honestly I haven't had time to really look at any of the decks, let alone pre-play them like I intended. :/)

Also - Tomorrow is the last day. :)

[final_press]

Mal, did you get my deck?

edit - damn, just realised my deck doesn't even work... I do this every time! :(

[tfp]

Maleficent, there was no typo in my deck name...
It contained a little hint in his name "Unfaer" ;)

BTW: Is it possible to change on card? I found a better substitution.

[Maleficent]

I got yours, Final Press. And yes, tfp, that's no problem. Just need the change and/or notification of a coming change by the deadline. And I'll change the name. XD I just try not to include hints in deck names... could be "unfaer." :P

[Cashew]

Oooh time to reverse and play =) Where are the results male? Huh, huh?

[Maleficent]

XD Still haven't had time... I'll start 'em today though. :P

[Maleficent]

Update: 38/66 games done. :eek:

[final_press]

*cracks the whip

H'yah! Type those results!! :p

[Maleficent]

Ah crap, now where'd fp's deck go...? Damn, guess I'll have to disqualify 'em. Less games to play out, w00t.

[final_press]

Ah crap, now where'd fp's deck go...? Damn, guess I'll have to disqualify 'em. Less games to play out, w00t.

I need to try that in a round without Strip Mine - it may actually work then.

Is it possible to plays these games with my first turn being "LED, Pass"? In that case the game would most likely play to a draw (Zhou not playing the Pet, because I'd kill it, me not playing the Hunter, because I want to kill the Pet). I don't really get how it is the games are played out, but when i chose the deck I had this kind of strategy in mind.

Why can't I use LED?


Sorry Mal, I know that's a lot of questions to be throwing out. :o They're not really directed at you, but at anyone who can give a definate answer. It's not that I want the results changed (either way I finish at the far bottom of the table), but I clearly need to get a better grasp of how the game works. I keep completely missing the mark on my decks and it'd be good to get things like this straight in my mind so I might stand a chance of improving. (Yeah, right :p)

[Death_By_Beebles]

On this, I'm just not quite sure why DBB doesn't take mana burn, is it that he can pay for the animate ability twice?


Yes. You can play the animate ability twice, using up both mana.

Also, Basillica/Vindicate, while a good deck, is far too slow for this format. This bears some thinking.

[tfp]

YIIIIEEEEEHAAAAA

Bow before me, you can call me "tfp, King of Fae" :E
Bitterblossom is just too good in this format. Good that it is banned for the next rounds ;)

[hells33kerd]

would the dredge mechanic work in these games. i ask cause of the whole ya know...no cards in library thing

[tfp]

would the dredge mechanic work in these games. i ask cause of the whole ya know...no cards in library thing

No it would not, as to be able to dredge you must have at least as many cards in your library...


@Niv-Mizzet: Really cool and strong deck. Didn't expect someone to sneak a really big and hard to remove creature into the game, as Show and Tell was banned.

And Maleficient... your deck is... lunatic. You must have access to some really bad drugs ;)

[Maleficent]

Is it possible to plays these games with my first turn being "LED, Pass"? In that case the game would most likely play to a draw (Zhou not playing the Pet, because I'd kill it, me not playing the Hunter, because I want to kill the Pet). I don't really get how it is the games are played out, but when i chose the deck I had this kind of strategy in mind.

He still has the Factory and Mox.


Again, if he plays the pet, I could kill it with the Hunter, but if he passes on playing the Pet, we'd play to a draw.

Factory and Mox again.


Same question with this one really... can I just sit on my Hunter to prevent him dropping the Zombie? If he plays it I can drop a SoL on it to make it power 4

That's an interesting idea... yes, you could do that.


Against hells I can kill the sleeper Agent by casting a SoL on it to make it a target for the Hunter.

Yep.


Why can't I use LED?

Mmmm, because when you change control of cards in MWS, it rearranges them making it appear as though LED was your 4th card and thus not available with DBB's limit. :paranoid:

I'll fix those.

EDIT: Ok, you get 4 extra points, which brings you... right where you were. XD However, you did get a lot of other people to move up. :rotf:


And Maleficient... your deck is... lunatic. You must have access to some really bad drugs ;)

You know, I get that a lot.... XD Well I liked the deck, but how's it lunatic? :P It makes Thoughtseize USELESS! Bwahahaha! I'm kinda surprised no one used the Rat though. That'd have screwed me.

It's just too bad the Energy Chamber thing didn't work... that'd have been awesome.

Niv's deck did surprisingly well... 5-card combo FTW! XD Expect to see more small decks in the future? Hmm.

This is the second time I've used that same combo(but first time it was a normal swamp). The first time was a 5CB(Got second with it). But I didn't expect to do well, because of the fact that I lose any game that I go second and start with less then 5 cards. But I was only 3 points behind. Wow! :eek:
