I am wondering if Burning Incense is considered an offering?  Thanks you.
I never want to grow up, hmmm maybe thats why I'm a youth pastor.

It isn't right now, but if it is, Teal just became a pre-block ignore brigade. =D

Technically, yes it is.... but it has been ruled to NOT be one because it would be majorly broken if it was.

However, I know a way to recur it and play it (or ANY card for that matter) before battle... but its a LOT harder.  :D

I don't see how it is more majorly broken than the white covenants....

The white covenants only work when the opponent BLOCKS with a non-WC ec, not too hard to stop.

Joidia can pull it out of the discard pile and play it before the opponent can even block.

Ah, forgot the human part.. that limits it even more.

I will say this though. That combo I am referring to... I HAVE made an offense based around recuring Burning Incense just to see if it would work...  ;D Theres much easier ones for me to recur though, lol.

You played it at regionals. Actually, I take that back. You played the bad version of it. It could only recur OT enhancements. Now it's been fixed to recur anything.

I've played against the "recur anything" offense.  It's really cool but... it takes too long to make it work.

Yeah, that's the basic weakness of it.

Yeah, the recur ALL offense is a little too unwieldy but... my original variant that used just some genesis enhancements worked pretty well.

While I had thought I was the first to make it, apparently two others had known about it, mabye more. Still, I like saying I at least thought of it without being told beforehand.  :P
