Dunno about you guys, but i'm pretty tempted to foil out this badboy....
OK so whatever fools convinced me to do this in real cards are about to cost me 25-50 quid as I buy the 107 cards I am missing. Bastards. I'm particularly enjoying spending 5-10 quid on Kamigawa block cards that are probably actually bad and should be replaced with something else.

Anyone know anything about Kamigawa block limited?!
All I really remember about KAM is Blademaster was awesome, Gnarled Mass was ok, and the Kami that taps to give +1/+2 was ridiculous. It was quite an incestuous block though, lots of Arcane, Spirit and Samurai themes.

So, Glacial Ray was a first pick, but was a bad shock if you didn't get other Arcane spells to splice it onto. Waxmane Baku was also pretty awesome, but again terrible if you couldn't trigger it.
Pretty sure I have these that I could contribute for you, saving you a few pence:

Crib Swap
Calciderm
Necrotic Sliver
Stonecloaker
Nightshade Assassin
Pillory of the Sleepless
Condemn
Rakdos Guildmage
Boros Guildmage
Lightning Helix
Nezumi Graverobber
Rend Flesh
Barter in Blood
Boros Garrison
Orzhov Basilica
Golgari Signet
Orzhov Signet
According to this (I also didn't play Kamigawa): http://draft.bestiaire.org/ranking.php

We should make the following alterations:

SOK

+ Secretkeeper - Feral Lightning
+ Stampeding Serow - Death Denied

BOK

+ Throat Slitter - Shimmering Glasskite
+Ogre Marauder - ?

COK

+Kabuto Moth - (have to get back to work ;)
No ideas about Kamigawa block, but can we have Stinkweed Imp in Ravnica? He rules, while Greater Mossdog is just a hill giant.
Is that pretty sure as in I guarantee to bring these tonight cancel your order for those cards with Mike or pretty sure as in maybe if you can find them down the back of the sofa one day? Especially Lightning Helix as it's about 3 quid.

Right I think I am done boiling my brain about this. I've got 253 cards in a box with 400 sleeves and the remaining 107 cards coming from Mike hopefully tonight. If it turns out some cards are shit and other cards are tragically missing as it surely will we can make alterations from this baseline state.

Last change for now:

RAV: -Greater Mossdog, +Stinkweed Imp.

Kieran - don't worry about the 5-10 quid you could possibly have saved me. I will suck it up.
Fucking champion you are, Tom.


We'll play this on Sat and help you test for Sunday's qualifier, yea?
Hells yeah :D
