Announcing September Events
= Announcing September Events
= Sun, Aug 1st, 2010
This summer continues to be awesome in terms of Magic events both large and small. Personally I've been keeping an eye on the live coverage of Grand Prix Colombus!
Here at NDC Butler I still have to look forward to our Magic Game day, and the Butler Gathering tournament.
Not to overshadow the events that are still to occur in August, but I've worked out my schedule of events for September - just because I like being that organized. And I must say that we continue to deliver the awesome not only with strong regular events like casual plays and FNMs, but with the pre-release of Scars of Mirrodin rolling out at the end of the month. Check out the descriptions below, and I hope to see you all around!

= Myojin of Life's Web and Sudden Spoiling
= Myojin of Life's Web and Sudden Spoiling
= Friday, April 30th 2010
The following occurred in a casual Elder Dragon Highlander game with 4 players. At that time I made a rules call concerning this interaction that was incorrect. Here is the correct call.
Situation:
Player A has a Myojin of Life's Web in play with a divinity counter on it. They choose to attack Player B. Player B casts Sudden Spoiling.
Question:
Does Myojin manage to keep indestructable?
Answer:
No.
Reasoning:
The text "Myojin of Life's Web is indestructible as long as it has a divinity counter on it." is an ability, and thus Myojin does not have it when Sudden Spoiling resovles. Although the divinity counter does remain on the creature - it has no function.
Reference:
CR 112.11. An effect that sets an object’s characteristic, or simply states a quality of that object, is different from an ability granted by an effect. When an object “gains” or “has” an ability, that ability can be removed by another effect. If an effect defines a characteristic of the object (“[permanent] is [characteristic value]”), it’s not granting an ability. (See rule 604.3.) Similarly, if an effect states a quality of that object (“[permanent]” is indestructible” or “[creature] is unblockable,” for example), it’s neither granting an ability nor setting a characteristic. (See rules 700.4 and 700.5.)
700.4a Although the text “[This permanent] is indestructible” is an ability, actually being indestructible is neither an ability nor a characteristic. It’s just something that’s true about a permanent.

Card Text:

MtG: Magic Free Play
= MtG: Magic Free Play
= Tuesday, September 8th.
I know I haven't written about our weekly Magic free play in a while, but that doesn't mean it's not happening. This week, for example we had a total of 10-11 people show up to simply play and enjoy the game. The other item of note is that a few people were playing plane chase, which is understandable given it's recent release. There was also some general discussion on what Zendikar holds for the future.

MtG: Plane chase Launch
= MtG: Plane chase Launch
= Saturday, September 5th
Our plane chase launch was a moderately successful event. There was a fair amount of interest in the product, and we did manage to sell 5-6 decks in the first day. About 4-5 people lingered around to play the game for nearly 6 hours. Unfortunately I was unable to watch any of the games since I was working register at the time, but I heard that that there were some pretty 'epic' plays and games.

About 12 people attended this week’s free play. Of those, 10 opted to join in the casual play extended tournament I had scheduled. Because this was a casual event, I could participate, and I did - and luckily enough I managed to come out undefeated 4-0. I was playing a red/black goblin deck, and I somehow managed victories against some sizable competition such as zombies, fairies, and thopter beats.
As a side note. This date was also the 70th birthday of Marvel Comics. The store had promotional sales going on, and cake.

= Tuesday, August 4th, 2009
7 people in all attended our free play. This was quite a surprise after last week when we must have had more than a dozen. Several games were played, but the most interesting for me was when I allowed a friend of mine to play one of my decks, and sat and watched the game. It was a slightly novel experience to see someone else play out one of my own decks since I knew every card, but they were playing it a bit differently than I normally do. What’s odd is that the opponent for the game was also playing my brother’s deck, and that he was doing the same as me - sitting as spectator for the games.

We had 8 people attend our free play event. Personally I like free play events because they allow you to explore the game and learn new stuff. I, for example, played only one battle, but used a mercenary squad with Nym - which isn’t my usual squad. I also did more than a few trades, watched pieces of two different games, and just kinda sat back and talked strategy some.
Picture: Dave M. talking strategy to two of our younger players, Mason and Jerimiah (off-frame).

= Tuesday, July 22nd, 2009
About nine people showed up for our weekly free-play, including one new player. We didn’t have any extra freebies to toss around, so people just did the usual. That being a combination of talk, play, trade, and generally have fun. Speaking of talk and trade, there was (of course) some activity on both counts concerning M10. People were buying and trading M10 cards heavily. The obvious favorite is white cards - as a fair number of people are out there looking for white soldiers and more specifically Honor of the Pure.
I personally am looking forward to what appears at the table this upcoming friday for FNM. Guaranteed some people will be running some new cards. The question is how much and which cards will be run.
Picture: During free play night we always manage at least one multiplayer free-for-all, such as this one.

Six players for our weekly free play, including one new player (always a good thing). We had some free swag in the game order (a giant 3’ sticker of Jace), so we actually ran an impromptu casual tournament with $1 entry on the spot, winner (Justin) got the sticker. Four players decided to participate in that, so we had a quick tournament while the other two played a bunch of matches. With time to spare we played (and finished) a six-player multiplayer free-for-all for fun.

Recently some of my players have been asking about ships. So for this free-play we decided to break out Star Wars ships. The ships minis use different maps, minis, and rules than the character game, so I was interested to learn a bit more about it. I’ve done ships before, but only a few times, and it was quite some time ago. As a free-play the event was moderately successful. There were about 7 people there. However, the ships part of the free play didn’t go over well. 2 People played one ship battle, and the rest were content to play or trade character minis. Still, I would like to thank Zach for supporting this free play by bringing in his ships, maps, rule books, etc.

FYI: July 8th, 12:45-8:45pm, $25 entry, sealed deck format :) You can always check out what’s going on by looking at my venue information.

About ten people were present for free-play night, including one new face (always a good thing). Games were played and fun was had. Lingering discussion on M10, the rules changes, and the near future of the game continued. So far the response to M10 has been .. meh. Some key cards have been purchased from the shop that will appear in the new set (I won’t say which ones to avoid spoilers). On the other hand there doesn’t appear to be any ‘chase’ rares in the new set, and there’s some animosity towards the rules changes, and the almost-but-not reprints.
Personally I’m looking forward to running the prerelease, simply because this is the first prerelease for a core set. And I must admit I’ve got my list of cards that I’ll want out of the new set. Whenever a new set comes out it’s always an exciting prospect, and I think most people are looking forward to that.

Only five people this week. Still we had a good free-play. I got beat by some bizarre blue deck that used morph, but had very little internal consistency, yet possessed some kind of bizarre synergy. I guess you could compare it to some more casual builds for highlander, except it wasn’t a Highlander deck. We also played one multiplayer game that we had to pack up early on due to time. Also helped someone else tweak their casual merfolk deck.

Five players dropped by for our free play night. I personally participated in two interesting skirmishes. The first was separatist vs separatist. I was running mostly smaller point figures with Dirge and Count Duku, my opponent was running General Grevious and several larger pieces such as the droid starfighter, large crab droid, spider droid, and halfire droid. Basically my smaller pieces were decimated in the early game with missiles and rockets, but I managed to pull through in the end through mostly the efforts of my two rare characters.
The other battle was just as interesting because of the build of the squads. Dave had a 150pt squad that was specifically designed to take out a squad built around General Obi-Wan (from the clone wars starter). I happened to have such a squad. Dave’s squad was centered around a collection of Kel Dor Bounty Hunter which he would strategically detonate with Darth Sidious and Count Duku (also out of the clone wars starter).

Quite simply, we had an awesome free-play. We had quite a crowd, I think 13 or so people through the course of the night. It’s really great to see a mix of deck types and cards from the whole history of magic. That and it’s somewhat refreshing to play and play against odd combo decks, in multiplayer free-for-alls, and even just relax and not play for a while.
Picture: Alex plays a Deranged Hermit on Ken. Thanks to a
Pandemonium Alex has in play, Ken is taking 9 damage to the face.

On the good side, we had eight people show up for free play. So it was fairly busy. I saw a zombie deck which brought back fond memories, and managed to play a few games with my signature deck (and it worked!) - which is a rare treat for me.
Unfortunately we were upstairs, where it was hotter and we had limited seating. However, Warhammer, which was playing downstairs had about the same number of people, if not more, and arguably, they need more floor space - so I personally can’t complain.

Seven players dropped by for free-play night. Not all of them played a game that night, but that’s also why we call it ‘free play’. I also had one new player tonight. We always try to give players free stuff. I taught him the basics and lost (I almost always loose when doing a demo, because my opponent outnumbers and overpoints me by 2:1 or better).
Free play is always a good night to trade and/or pull packs. Personally I traded for Nym, and pulled C-3PO.

Before I was able to sanction FNMs we had a casual play night for magic on Tuesdays. The day switched to Wednesday for a while, then was eventually moved to every other sunday when we got our FNM. However I enjoy casual play and have been pushing (just slightly) for a return of a weekly magic free-play night. Fortunately Mike (the manager) gave us back Tuesday.
This month I’m advertising it as the “Triumphant Return” of Tuesday night casual play. Our first night out of the gate had only 4 people, but that’s not bad considering our FNM crowd traditionally meets attendance requirement (8). So, if you happen to be in the Butler, PA area on a Tuesday or Friday, and are itching to play some Magic - drop by New Dimension Comics in the Clearview Mall. We’d be happy to see new faces, and you may just get something for it.

Before I was able to sanction FNMs we had a casual play night for magic on Tuesdays. The day switched to Wednesday for a while, then was eventually moved to every other sunday when we got our FNM.
