[up]While I'm not at all surprised that Tasigur ended up being a bit too smug for his own good, if the rakshasa can just lie like that and still expect the other end of the bargain to be upheld, why does anyone believe a word they say? I mean, there's being a Jackass Genie, and then there's just being a jackass who happens to be a genie.

Y'know, technically the Raksha was promised the traitor's life. Not "whoever I claim that person to be"'s. So what he was actually due was his own soul.

[up] I'm not sure Raksha even have souls, so there is that. tongue

I got two Tasigur's from booster packs. My girlfriend claimed one of them. tongue

I got one at the pre-release. Pretty much the only rare that wasn't in mardu.

Tasigur is legit. He's already seeing Legacy/Modern play. If you don't plan on playing him in Standard/Modern/Legacy though, I'd dump him. His price is only going to drop as more people start drafting.

[up] How are they managing to make him work on that level?

All these Fate Reforged and Khans of Tarkir things...

...I swear, I'm not used to this at all.

These sets just seem full of powerful stuff.

So I should probably trade off both my foil Tasigur then?

[up]You can give one to me. cool

LOL seriously though, if you actually go through with shipping one to me, even if you give the card for free I will still spend more money than if someone over where you are just bought it from you.

[up]Our Customs wanted a boy to pay the equivalent of $50 for the package his father sent over for Christmas. The toy gift is worth $20. I will thus be paying at least double the worth of your foil Tasigur, even if you give it to me for free.

Foils are weird. It's possible that the price might stay up, since it's a Legacy card atm and Legacy foils tend to keep their price.

Man, Khans of Tarkir and Fates Reforged are utterly full of overpowered stuff.

With my cards from before these sets, I wasn't even able to really do any damage. Its just utterly unfair.

That's why I'm doing better with my WG Standard than my G Modern deck. And I've updated the former, it's in "ready" state now. LOL

[up][up]From my perspective, Theros felt like they arbitrarily made it underpowered, with all of the interesting signature mechanics way overcosted.

So. Alesha. Pretty hardcore, right? I just wish she were an actually good card, especially for Commander. If she were a viable general I'd totally make that deck just because fucking represent, girl.

As a card? Anafenza's way better. As a character? Alesha by miles. I did try to see if there was a standard deck for Alesha but if there is it will take someone better at seeing combos than I am to build it.

I can't say I ever really cared about either.

I'm mostly just working on putting together my Yasova Commander Deck of Walls and thievery and awaiting word on the final fate of Narset.
