| I've wanted to play the Empire cards since they came out, but was on a break from Magic at the time. Now seems like the right time to knock them out since M12's rotating soon. I couldn't figure out a decent deck, so I just threw in a ton of black removal. Hopefully I'll work out how to make an Empire deck that's not actually terrible. It'll be tough, though. Starting with a dozen clunkers puts a real hurt on deck quality. |
