  1. There are a plethora of cheap, 3 mana and under answers to Jace, not to mention bloodbraid elf in response to tapping out for jace is almost always better.

    How did that RDW player go 4-0? Mana Barbs in extended shows a distinct lack of understanding about what is good right now, or even good with your own deck. Not only are people playing a ton of enchantment hate, but it is a terrible late game topdeck, and in every matchup you would want to resolve it, Koth is better. Barbs was only decent when there was limited playable burn, but in extended you can play 12-18 excellent burn spells, so there’s absolutely no need.

  2. Hello everyone,

    please let us know how the videos are streaming for you. Is it freezing and reloading often? Does it run without problems? Let us know along with your system and Internet speed and help us to improve quality and performance.
    Thanks!

  3. those work fine.

    However many other videos reload painfuly and slowly, sometimes I have to wait hours until I can watch a 30 minutes long vid (and my internet connection is fine).

  4. Don’t forget the option to download the whole thing while you are doing other things and then watch without streaming.

    @Carrotus Do you have a cable/DSL connection?

  5. As “Just Helping” stated, I don’t feel like Jace is that amazing in the current format. It is good in some situations but I think that it is bad often enough to warrant playing less than 4 copies.
