[neuroleptics]

Ah, this is gonna be one epic tourney, So purify is also disallowed?
why is lobo and uritarid (spelling...) not disallowed?

[Poker Alho]

EDIT: so i decided to make that list lol

i think thats all, upgraded versions should count as well

(forgot skull shield)
(dropped fahrenheit and added hope)

So purify is also disallowed?

Cards with effects/abilities that select a single target (e.g. Lightning, Deflagration, Holy Light) are not allowed.

Purify selects a target, so it's not allowed.

why is lobo and uritarid (spelling...) not disallowed?

Creatures and permanents with activated abilities (e.g. Graboid, Lava Golem, Golden Hourglass) are not allowed.

Lobo and Flayer are not allowed.

That's a good one.....sadly, all nymphs are disallowed

[glennfoo]

it is usually dinner time.. hope i can make it though

[glennfoo]

by the way is phoenix allowed then?? since phoenix does not target a creature,but if got cc, it turns to ash with a single ability. just want to confirm..

agree with poker alho, a list will be good. i suppose phoenix is allowed in this case??

phoenix is allowed, ash as a standalone card doesnt exist, you just cant have cards with activated abilities on your deck. imagine graboid was allowed but not shrieker... you could still have shriekers in play when you evolved your graboids, even if shriekers were forbidden

[dragonsdemesne]

Why are the upped tourneys always at horrible times for me? :p Good luck to all; I will be comfortably in bed at 4am   Also, I really hope monolife wins, because life lost almost no cards with these rules, as it's such a vanilla element. 

And fahrenheit is banned, but it's erroneously in poker alho's list of allowed cards.

[jumpingbeans]

Also, I don't see why Hope wouldn't be allowed, but it's not on the list.

[atm2995]

graviton mercer should be removed from the list b/c it has an activated ability
