Sixth Edition (4/1999), known as Classic (Sixth Edition) at its release Limited Edition, includes Alpha (8/1993) and Beta (10/1993) HereвЂ™s an except from the вЂњProduct NamesвЂќ section: The answer to your question can be found in the Magic Style Guide, a rather bulky document maintained by Magic lead editors over the years. Why are these two particularly different? Q: Q: I've noticed that a lot of times, Alpha and Beta are not italicized in writing as other regular sets such as Time Spiral. 13!!ДЈ) What's the biggest creature in the block you could possibly want to kill with a burn spell? Yup, take it, Krosan Cloudscraper! Time to die. Shivan Meteor does 64399753 damage to target Ice Fisherman.'Дў) 13 is a hilarious amount of damage to deal. Another submission for the hole to match the art that we really liked was '3RRR, Sorcery. In this case, the art is an absurdly enormous fireball just demolishing this tiny terrified dude, like blasting him out of his mind.ДЎ3 seems pretty appropriate for the sheer size of this devastating blast. We had people who work in the department design cards, and the PLC development team picked the one that seemed coolest and matched the art best. Besides the Elf aspect, the Seismic Assault aspect required you to remember to hold lands in your hand, so when you play it out you can decimate your opponent.Q: Shivan Meteor.13 damage.why?ДЄ: From Devin Low, Planar Chaos Lead Developer:ДЎ) A suspend burn spell was killed in Time Spiral, and the Planar Chaos developers had to fill a hole to match the art you know now as Shivan Meteor. This puts a strain on your Green mana, and sometimes it is worth playing the second forest, but Wirewood Lodge would require you to lay down even more land that could be better used to Shock things. I do not run the lodge because often your ideal mana in play is 1 Forest and 3 Mountains, holding the rest of the land in your hand for Seismic Assault. I would say the most notable difference between this deck and the other Elf decks is the conspicuous absence of Wirewood Lodge. You can do massive damage with the Timberwatch without even really trying. Wirewood Symbiote lets you reuse your elves and do all sorts of tricky things like saving them when they are about to die. Wirewood Herald is the backbone of the deck вЂ“ threatening to fetch Timberwatch, Viridian Shaman, Caller of the Claw, or even Wellwisher. The Hystrodon is an all purpose beater, acting as a trampler for your Timberwatch Elf and a card drawing engine so your Seismic Assault will not run dryвЂ¦not to mention I have a habit of putting at least one type of morph creature in my Elf decks вЂ“ they add so much to the suspense of a morphed Birchlore Rangers.ДЄ:13:ДЇor those of you who are familiar with my Elf decks, this works in a similar manner for the most part. The Assault also solves the last problem Elves hadвЂ¦the inability to remove unwanted creatures from the table ( Sparksmith, Goblin Sharpshooter) and deal those last few points of damage. This also allows cards like Sprouting Vines and Krosan Tusker to become extra powerful, thinning your deck of land and netting card advantage.

But you can change those statistics drastically by adding a card like Seismic Assault to the deck, changing every land you draw into a free Shock. In Magic, this happens on occasion and the players chalk it up to statistics. One problem that Elves always had was that in some games, you would just draw too many lands. This one takes quite a different spin using two unusual cards that change the deck to a significant degree вЂ“ Seismic Assault and Hystrodon. I was having trouble with the decision to publish this deck simply because I have already published several other Elf decks.

This deck takes a little spin on the Elf variant. Without Skullclamp powered superdecks, I feel that Elves once again stand a good chance in Standard. If you don't feel like clicking over right now, lets just say this was probably one of the easiest decisions to make in banning a card since Tolarian Academy. Now, if you want to learn more about Skullclamp and why it was banned, read Aaron's article. This deck celebrates the banning of Skullclamp. This deck, unlike the last, has no chance of accidentally killing you. In effect, I managed to make a budget deck that was only good at killing the player playing the deckвЂ¦bad eggs indeed. This was a grievous error on my part and I did all I could do to correct the error after the fact, posting an alternative deck in the forums that used solely the Nantuko Shrine. Several of you emailed me (probably half the magic players on the planet) wondering about the use of Dwarven Shrine in my deck. Before I start this article, I would like to apologize for last week's article.
