Planeswalkers Unite!: A Tumblr Project
Bringing this back to grab the new followers and remind the old!

le-sex-god asked: 1. What's your favorite format?
2. What format do you play the most?
3. What do you think of this new Modern format?
For me it's:
1. EDH
2. Standard
3. It's boring. Lol. I tried doing some constructed with it, and the whole time I was building my deck I was just like "'I'd rather just be building EDH". But...

What is your favorite Timmy card?
Timmy loves big creatures and big effects.
For example, Timmy might like Khalni Hydra or Traumatize. Day of Judgment is kinda boring to him, but Martial Coup is much better.

Elo was an avid chess player, and wanted a more accurate system of tracking chess player’s skill levels. Based off the Harkness System, Elo managed to create a new system that more accurately rewards and punishes...

slatios asked: Got a question for you:
I have Life and Limb in play and some Saprolings in play. If an opponent plays Red Moon, what are my Saps now? Just Mountains, Mountain Saps, or Mountain Forest Saps?
