Nothin' like a deck with just Merfolk of the Pearl Trident, Lord of Atlantis, and Islands!

I was not around for the first many years of Magic, so this was great :) I have a bit of historical info I heard from Maro, who once spoke on the early rules of magic, relating to the 3 lords. You speak in the podcast about the lords and their tribes af if he rules of Magic back when Alpha came out, as if the rules are the same as they are today. That is not true for the rule concerning that today, you are only allowed to have 4 copies of each card in your deck. Back then there was no limit to the number of copies of each card you could play. And due to the sheer popularity and pull of tribes - because its such great fun - players did make full tribe decks in the early days, playing the few goblins, and merfolk and zombies that was available. I have no idea how powerful those decks where or the validity of that strategy back then, but players were allowed to build decks that way :) Have a great day. Thanks for a great show guys!
