** Unnatural Predation – I Know What You Are Thinking; Your Want To Trample Your Opponent, But…

Trample is a very effect way of eliminating your opponent. That is not what is in question. However, this card is a weak card because it only gives you +1/+1 for 1 card. So, don’t go with this card. Go with a card like Elvish Herder and give multiple cards trample, at the cost of 1 mana apiece.

*** Magic: the Gathering - Titanic Growth - Magic 2012

There Once Was A Time Where I Was Very Attracted To This Card., This card just isn't a winner. Giant Growth is one to consider that is much better. With Giant Growth, you pay 1G and get +3/+3. Consider Giant Growth for an Infect deck, but with Titanic Growth for an entire extra mana, you don't get much more out of it. That makes this card one that does not deserve much attention.

** Huge and Okay: Magic: the Gathering - Engulfing Slagwurm - Scars of Mirrodin

Huge and Okay., January 19, 2013 In my opinion, most huge cards aren't idyllic. There are better cards to consider than this one if you are considering a combo play with Elvish Piper. If you are looking for a card that can destroy, then I think playing one that costs few or 1 mana and has deathtouch is an ideal replacement for this one.

*** Mtg Deals Amazon.com - Service Worried Me that Potential Showers Could Have Destroy My Purchase

Glad to have done business with you.  However, my rating is 3 stars instead of 5 because the packaging did not seem to be waterproof.  Luckily, the cards were dry when they came.  However, if it had rained then they probably would have been soaked.  Other card sellers on Amazon that I have done business with send the card in a plastic sleeve that somehow seems to be sealed.  Therefore, through my rating I hope that I am able to be of assistance, such that if I buy cards from Mtg Deals again, I can be assured that rain will not soak them, and that this sealing should be quick, inexpensive and rather easy for Mtg Deals to improve their business system through.

Review of Lifesmith ** Card Might Be Good If You Have a Lot of Low Cost Artifact Cards.

Don’t read this cards ability incorrectly.  If you play an artifact spell, you may only use its ability once.  Still, if you cast three artifacts, which is highly probable if you have 30 or so artifacts in your Commander, you might want to consider this card.  Think of it this way, pay 5 (it’s casting cost plus using its ability 3 times), and gain 9 life.  Not exactly great, but not terrible either.  In the worst case scenario, you might draw this card late in the game, but as with a lot of low costing cards, the risk comes with the territory.

Review of Ant Queen *** I’d Be Disappointed If I Opened a Pack and Ant Queen Was the Rare.

Paying a casting cost of 5 mana to get a 5/5 is just okay. That is, if it is on the ground and the casting cost is less than or equal to the sum of its power and toughness, then it should have a pretty cool ability, especially if it is a green card. So, let’s look at the ability of paying 2 mana in order to get a 1/1 green insect. As, with the case of Druidic Satchel and getting a Saproling for 2 mana, the cost is just too much. If it cost 1 mana to put out an insect token then that would be a different story. And, expecting to pay 1 for a 1/1 is not unreasonable. There are cards that you can do that with.

Genesis Wave *** Fools Gold! But, good educational value

1. Genesis Wave *** Fools Gold! Educational Value 5

The only scenario where I can see this card being any good is if you have a ton of mana. 8 mana probably won’t cut it. The best part about this card is its educational value. I’d give it one star overall, if it was just about the play of the card, but in this case, Genesis Wave makes you do a little math in order to figure out if it is worth using. It took me a bit of math, and probability to figure it, and even if you 8 mana when you cast this card, it will probably disappoint you. Don’t worry though if you were fooled. I was fooled too! That was until I played a few games and found that this card isn’t really good. Just to verify, I pulled out my pen and paper and found that Genesis Wave isn’t a very good card.

Review of StrikeZoneOnline.com ***** Fast pitch!

The card was in great condition. The price was right. The best part though is that they had a card that starcitygames.com didn’t have. I like to be a loyal customer, but when the good aren’t available from the usual sources, it’s time to look somewhere else, and that is where StrizeZone delivered. My order wasn’t very big, so they certainly didn’t make much profit off of the transaction, but they took the time to work fast and get me the card. They must be in it for the love of the game! Next time I order a card on Amazon, StrikeZone will be my first choice.
