Posted: Tue Dec 20, 2011 2:54 pm Post subject: Abbreviated Names for cards of Standard |
|
|
I would like to start a thread about Abbreviated names for the cards of standard. Like Bob for Dark Confidant, Bop for Birds of Paradise or DoJ, you get the picture. I'll Start:
For all the Titans:
Pitan - Primeval titan
Fitan - Frost Titan (I like this one the best, cuz he is fitan to kick your a$$)
Sitan - Sun Titan
Gitan - Grave Titan
Notan- InferNO Titan (this one is hard, suggestions)
Many more cards that could be shorted. Begin the flames. |

Actually I think most of us call him Jens, just as Snapcaster Mage can also be called Tiago? |

| Everything should be abbreviated to only 1 letter names. |

| Mass0, you should probably go with commonly used names rather than making your own names for them. |

"Jens Thorén is a former professional Magic: The Gathering player from Sweden. He is best known for winning the 2002 Magic Invitational and finishing in the top 4 of two Pro Tours in a row (San Diego and Osaka) in the 2001–02 season. That season, he also finished second in the Player of the Year race to Kai Budde. He won the Masters tournament in Houston the following season. After winning the Magic Invitational, a version of the card he designed was printed in Mirrodin as Solemn Simulacrum." |
