Glad you came around. I ...I do love me some Swords. Glad you came around. I think your list is pretty dead-on, too. The only quibble is Jitte - in my experience, the Fork of Doom is just "meh" in EDH, with the sole exception being in Rafiq where doublestrike makes it a huge bomb. The -1/-1 ability is typicaly the best but I can never kill anything that truly needs killing. 99% of the time I just end up gaining 4 to 8 life in response to a Naturalize effect. That's pretty unimpressive. <br /><br />I think I'd have to put Sunforger on the list regardless of it's narrow-ness - in the decks it DOES go in, it just dominates games. I have most of your top 10 in my Jor Kadeen deck, including all 5 Swords, Greaves and Clamp... but Sunforger is almost always the first Equipment I tutor for if I draw Stoneforge or another Equip tutor.<br /><br />And yeah, I too have been pleasently surprised with Sword of War and Peace... I mean I never expected it to suck, but man that thing is brutal in the right situations.Thaumaturgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07734372825472901455noreply@blogger.com
