Dear Mages of Etheria,

                Im proud to announce the grand re-opening of the Library of the White Spires.

   The library is going to be set up into three different sections. First will be the Legendary section, this will be filled with a list of tournament winning spellbooks. To be considered for this section the book must win at a major event (Con, Nationals, etc.) or be the winner of a tournament with a minimum of 16 (subject to change) players.

   The second section will be a librarian’s choice where people will be able to nominate books that are either Meta-changing, archetype creating, or good for beginners. Those books will be nominated by the community and the team of librarians will discuss and add books they feel fit for this section.

   The third section will be composed of user submitted books. This is called the commons. There will be a limit of one book per user for this section. This will be organized alphabetically and by mage, so it’s easy to navigate. Books can be changed once a month per user. You can pm me a link to your book and I will get it added. Users who submit books within a week of opening may be rewarded!

   A Domination part will also be added to each section of the thread. There will be an academy version, the library of Sistarra, in the academy spellbook construction thread. We are looking forward to getting everyone involved in this project so any discussion can be done on this thread. If you have any questions or concerns feel free to pm me and I will do my best to answer in a timely manner.

Opening day is this Saturday, so look out for it!

Your librarians: Coshade, Puddnhead, Schwenkgot, Sharkbait, Sailor Vulcan, Zuberi

                                                                  Thank you,

                                                                  ExcaliburTK

I played a game with it this morning ( lost to a swarm straywood) and made some changes to it, I will post the updated version later when I get off of work, this version is trying to do two things at once and it doesn't work. I dropped the thought spores and am going to do the dot/fatigue strategy instead. Also will change the opening for the fact that you are right so unless plan to defend the siphon turn 2 then I need to play it a bit more defensively

idea is to turn one drop minds eye and then hit them with mana siphon. haven't really planned anything past that. thoughts and feedback are appreciated?

Glad to see more mage wars content keep up the good work

I think that even if you reanimate an enemy creature, the opponent is technically still the owner of the card as it originally came from there spellbook, so you cannot sacrifice it.

as i was writing post jacksmack replied and explained it much better than i did

You would have the same mana after you meditated on turn 3 so you could not cast a 5 mana cleric on turn three which is very important for the late temple of asyra ( having the option to pray twice on turn 4 or once in case you need to defend against aggression with Artemis).

So basically if I don't meditate turn one I couldn't drop 3 creatures on turn 3.
