A little, been using Chaos Rules with friends(basically a fucked over extra phase that invovles dice and the most screwed over rules)
Gotten more big green creatures and thinking of doing a White/Green Deck.
Basically Life Sucking huge creatures.

Red and White? Those are always fun decks to play with. Green and White critter decks can be naasty too, if built right.
So what's in them, gents?

For my green/white...It's pretty much the same except took out out the Shivans and the Two headed Dragon, two Vishannos, and the Blazes, Pyrotechnics, and Pyroclasms(16)
Also took out 2 Fyndhorns for 2 Elvish Pipers, and 1 Hunted Wumpus for 1 Rogue Elemental(8/5 regenerating trampler)
Added in 2 Serra Angels, 1 Worship, 1 Noble Intent, 4 Holy Days, 4 Spirit Links, 4 Armadillo cloaks.
Essentially a life sucker and if I get Worship, a near game ender.
Though tinkering with either Aegis Reflector(?)(1 Casting cost artifact which can reflect damage) or 2 Worships.

Though I now have a Black/Blue deck I call Control...wherein I basically whittle my opponent down with discards and Counterspells while hurting .

That Green/White would need a lot of mana out in a hurry, that's for sure.
The Black/Blue sounds like the old-fashioned 'Bruiser' decks we played in the early 90's... Psychic Venoms and Phantasmal terrans played on their lands, use rats and swamp-walkers to hit, and Counterspells, Drain Life, and Terror to get rid of the competion.

Yeah, basically to get it started up and running I need about 4-5 mana(and one of at least Green or White)...and need a few more Elvish pipers because they cut mana costs, and maybe get another worship as well.

Pretty much...though made this out of a lot of 8th edition card, with some smattering of older cards.
Though with Darksteel and Myrriodin I'm thinking of a Artifact/Blue deck.

I have more than a little bad luck when it comes to drawing mana. Any decks that need mana to get going(even friends) often never get off. Thats why all the cards in my rebel deck are 4 mana or less, and one ability which cost five that has heartstones to cut down. Even then I get mana screwed.
On another subject, I'm back in a playing mood, ofcourse thats why my mom isn't letting me on the net.

Had a boatload of fun tonight, and my girlfriend has decided I am truly one screwy lovable geek.
Well, won another tourney(this one actually getting real prizes...ie a sealed Myrrodin).
And what won 5 games...the Isocron Scepter and Awe Strike.
Who cares if you have a 26/23 Trample demi god....you can't do CRAP!!!!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Eat my 4/1 flying weenie of DOOOOOOOOM
And my deck was basically White/Red/Black.
And it's 2 AM so I'm punchy, but from my winnings for some decent cards got a Platnium Angel, a Sculpting Steel(another near game winner), and some other nice stuff towards my Green/White Lifesucking deck which I'll do a few revisions given I want some more lifesucking and less big giants.

So let me get this straight ... you have a red/white deck based on just destroying their artifacts ? ~,^

Just about...had a friend pre-order two boxes and buy 4 of each uncommon of it.
My stuff is small and I usually build decks from his stuff which we share at tourneys........makes it a WHOLE lot easier on my checkbook

Hmm, indestructable cards... Interesting.
Nourish - GG - Gain 6 life. Not bad.
Machinate - UU1 - Look at the top X cards of your library, where X is the number of artifacts you control. Put one of those cards into your hand and the rest on the bottom of your library in any order. Has potential...
Hallow - W - Prevent all damage target spell would deal this turn. You gain life equal to the damage prevented this way. Might be useful against Twiddle/Desire...
Panoptic Mirror - 5 - Imprint — , : You may remove an instant or sorcery card with converted mana cost in your hand from the game. (That card is imprinted on this artifact.)
At the beginning of your upkeep, you may copy an imprinted instant or sorcery card and play the copy without paying its mana cost. Similar to an Isochron Scepter...
Last Word - UU2 - Last Word can't be countered by spells or abilities.
Counter target spell. Uncounterable counterspell.
Reshape - UUX - As an additional cost to play Reshape, sacrifice an artifact.
Search your library for an artifact card with converted mana cost X or less and put it into play. Then shuffle your library. Perhaps a replacement of Tinker?

Hmm, I should play again sometime, it's been a while. I have some new netdecks I want to try out (too lazy to design my own ones that don't suck) :p .

Add it to your Profile, hon... and look for TeamhairN on AIM.
Oh.. and now that I've gotten my $1100 tax return, I might invest in a box of Mirrodin and it's sequel...

I'm broke, and I've been busy as all hell as of late so I haven't had a chance to play at all.

I feel your pain, Cyran. Everytime someone wants to play online, I can't cause I'm only on a short time.

Well played a Draft tourney...got about 7 rares from the draft around 13 uncommons...and actually took second in my hording of shiny cards.
Okay Memnarch while expensive is a bitch and a half. If I have the mana and three blue to get him out...I start literally going nuts on the taking binge...if I have Extraplanar lenses and such...I start going really nuts.
He's a fun card.
Spellbinder is a fun piece of equipment and so are the swords of Fire & Ice or Light and Darkness.
All in all it compliments Mirrordin very well...wondering what weird fubarness they'll have for part 3.

I'm at work, so I can't see what that card does. Can you please explain Memnarch?
