So does anybody else experience this on Magic Online:

2HG Standard, turn 1, everyone plays their land, then one guy plays turn 1 Serra Ascendant. Nobody's playing black, instant win for them.

Its very annoying suffice to say.

So here's me wondering if I want to go to the Mirrodin Besieged prerelease, when it turns out there won't be one in the area. Eh, problem solved I guess.

This may be the wrong thread, but is this for the Magic: The Gathering Online?  If so, how does it run on older computers?

As far as I can tell, older computers should have no problem running the game, as long as your system requirements are up to specs. They don't look too intensive, so I think you'll be fine. Just download the client from here and create an account!

Btw, my screen name is lorthoslord.

Knowledge Pool is officially my favourite card of the block, regardless of what else is spoiled in this set or next. It will be the first card of the block that I own.

I can think of a bout a billion ways to abuse the card. Here's my ideas:

1) Extended - That card begs to be used with fateseal. Its like that little used mechanic featured on a whopping 2 cards, but Spin into Myth seems to finally have a calling.

2) Standard - A Selective Memory/Scry Rush-Win deck. You'd have to work this pretty fast, but if you can choose something like Emmy and Selective Memory everything else away, then you've got yourself a nice little basher. With some Myr ramping it could be a pretty quick win.

3) Standard - Not so fast yet still pretty awesome Scry setup deck. Take out the hard to pull off part of the first deck (and remove the Selective Memory side) and you've got a nice little engine.

This is the list that's on my mind recently:

22 x Forest

4 x Llanowar Elves
4 x Sachi, Daughter of Seshiro

4 x Essence Warden
4 x Elvish Visionary
4 x Wolf-Skull Shaman
4 x Wren's Run Packmaster
4 x Master of the Wild Hunt
4 x Wolfbriar Elemental

4 x Harmonize
2 x Squall Line

I haven't played this deck yet, but I did play the previous version (Hurricanes instead of Squall Lines and Forests instead of 2 Sachis) on MWS three times:
1. A really fun WUG Wild Pair/Whitemane Lion deck that fetches Sower of Temptation and all sorts of other goodies - narrow win for me
2. A T2 infect deck. Went up to 5 poison counters, managed to scrounge up Sachi and two other shamans and Hurricaned for 10 for the win.
3. A goblin deck with all sorts of things ranging from Quest for the Goblin Lord to Goblin Lackey. Went down to 9 life, then bounced back to 20 and proceeded to smash face with all the wolves.

As always, suggestions are welcome.

Is the deck meant to be competetive or casual?

Purely casual. I very rarely play competitive Constructed, and when I do, it's not using a deck of my own.

EDIT: I posted the list on the official forums. Someone suggested Oran-Rief, the Vastwood, Lead the Stampede and Eternal Witness. While I'm down for some Oran-Rief action and Eternal Witness is always awesome, I'm not so certain if Lead the Stampede is such a good replacement for Harmonize. Sure, it's cheaper and it can potentially give me more cards, but I don't want Squall Lines shipped to the bottom. Do you guys think it's worth testing? Also, apart from a Packmaster or two, I don't know what to cut to make room for the Eternal Witnesses.

EDIT2: I played 2 games against Faeries using a tweaked list (-4 Forest, - 2 Packmaster, -1 Wild Hunt, +4 Oran-Rief, +3 Eternal Witness), lost both games pretty narrowly.

How can you create the best Vintage Infect Deck?? Hmm.

I'm asking for a start, cuz i don't know which 2 colors to splice together :S

I'm thinking blue/black or blue/green (Or should i use Green/Black)

I'm using blue because of Unblockable ability.

And combine blue with black infect gives me the chance to take creatures like ghastlord of fugue which is unblockable and give him infect. Also gives me a chance to kill annoying enemy creatures.

But combining blue with green gives me the mana/land masses, if that even is good with infecters. Ad it gives me really good chances to high power boost them and give them either trample or unblockable.

I'm lost right now

I played a 3xMBS draft today. Thing is, we were using faction packs. It was awkward. At least I opened a green Zenith.

EDIT: I also welcome Chandra Nalaar as the first planeswalker in my stack o' cards. Acquired in exchange for a Nantuko Shade which is a pretty good trade according to MOTL.

4x Crucible of Worlds ---------- (To play lands from graveyard)
4x Zuran Orb ------------------- (Sac a land to gain 2 life)
4(1)x Strip Mine ------------------ (destroy target land)

(1 is because its restricted)
(4x Fastbond)= Would have made this deck a winner... Unlimmited land destroy and life)

4x Ghostly Prison -------------- (To keep creatures away)
4x Azusa, Lost but Seeking ----- (Play more land (Fastbond replace))
4x Leyline of Sanctity --------- (Makes you anti burn, discard and such)
4x
4x
4x
4x

10x Forests
10x Plains
(Remember the strip mine(s) is lands too)
(So instead 3 Green/White lands more)

So this is whats going on in my mind lately... It's tough to make something special out of this ;P
