managreen.pngDubious Challenge is one of my favorite cards now for fun play. Built up a Gaea's Revenge deck with lock-down and its been a lot of fun as long as I don't summon one of those stupid Pigs... I hate that stupid pig and wish he was at least locked to a color.

Last night with a lucky draw and lucky cascade, it put out a 32/18 Hexproof/Haste pissed off tree onto the battlefield in round one.

    I just wish this card had existed when I was doing the story mode challenges on Guardian of Meletis.

    Oh please don't mention that mission... I don't have dubious challenge and it takes soooooi longgggg. I haven't done it to this day because of crashes, is there a certain strategy I'm missing? Or just stall, kill, stall, kill, stall, kill.....

    Well before frog and imprison was available to me, I foolishly did this mission to get my hands on the then super duper hard to get 7 crystals.

    It took me the better part of an hour before the AI got stuck with a full hand.

    So I retried with Liliana, and finally got it after another hour and a half.

    But now, you can do it easily by using turn to frog and imprison. Just make sure he manages to get one creature out. That should take about 20 minutes.

    Do it with black, use whispers of Emrakul to make it discard cards if it stops casting cards from its full hand. Chances are, it's clogged up with Helm Of The Gods or something else that can't be casted until it has a creature on the board.

    If I remember correctly, he has exactly one creature in his deck or something. Even with Liliana making him discard, it took forever. I recommend waiting till he gets frog or imprison.

    Yeah it only has Chief of the Foundry. So you mean, turn it into a frog, then turn the frog into a moon, rinse, repeat? That's pretty clever; I like it. I should do that for all the "kill X creatures" objectives.

    Yes, give that foundry chief the mother of all identity crisis.
