Special 6-Hour Errata Issued on Magic Online

By: Zreyburn - August 06, 2003

In a bold yet unsurprising move, Wizards of the Coast put out a special bulletin on never-before-done 6-hour errata on two Magic Online cards, scheduled just in time for the 8th Edition Release Events.

Magic Online v2.0 8th Edition Errata

Has Magic the Gathering become boring? Then log onto Magic Online v2.0 for a whole new way to play with Magic cards . . . By not following what they say!

For a special 6-hours only, two amazing cards will have AMAZING and CRAZY errata! Play in 8th Edition Release Events between 12:00 AM and 6:00 AM Pacific Time, and witness the CRAZY errata in action.

This errata is SO CRAZY that it doesn't even appear on the cards!

Guerrilla Tactics - 1R - Common
Instant

Guerilla Tactics deals 2 damage to target creature or player.

When a spell or ability an opponent controls forces you to discard Guerrilla Tactics from your hand, Guerrilla Tactics deals 4 damage to target creature or player.

AND NOW TO KICK IT UP A NOTCH!

Whenever a player discards a card from his or her hand, if Guerrilla Tactics is in your hand or graveyard, Guerrilla Tactics deals 4 damage to target creature or player.

HOW BOUT THAT FOR SPICY?!


Emperor Crocodile - 3G - Rare
Creature-Crocodile - 5/5

When you control no other creatures, sacrifice Emperor Crocodile.

HEY, SCREW THAT!

Whenever you would sacrifice Emperor Crocodile because you control no other creatures, forget about it!

5/5 FOR 3G IS PRETTY GOOD, EH?

So play not by what the cards say, but what we say! And buy some more non-existant digital cards, because we said so!

"We felt that our *MONEY* players didn't like the game *MONEY* enough to begin with, so we changed the *MONEY* game to suit them," stated Wizards' representitive.

"Oh yea, *MONEY*!" the representitive added.

Outrage spewed forth from players who didn't recieve the memo, and/or didn't win with the errata, but fortunately, with Wizards' new filter program, the lengthy reasons and demands for refunds fell on auto-ignore ears.
