And this is why I only played White and Red/Black decks in magic.
But only for a short time.

I think we need context for the Lhurgoyf vs Tarmogoyf debate here: Competetive Play. Given the current metagame within tournaments, and given the card pool available, Tarmogoyf is on a completely different level from Lhurgoyf. We're talking a format where if you're spending 4 mana on a card, it almost
needs
to win you the game, or you lose. It's as simple as that. However, given a much slower format, and a completely different card pool to work with that resulted in a very slow metagame that gives you time to set up and play a Lhurgoyf, then yes, it can potentially be a better play.
However, you have to realize that the potential damage that Tarmogoyf can do in Legacy or Vintage is absurd. With almost every deck archetype heavily abusing dumping half of their library into their graveyard to get what they want, it's very rare not to have a 5/6 or higher Tarmogoyf on T2 or 3. Basically, being able to swing for 5 on turn 3 for 2 turns before you even have a chance to play your Lhurgoyf makes it an infinitely more attractive card.
Either way, if you're sitting at the kitchen table, play whatever you want, I find you can put pretty much any card into a deck and make it competitive against other tuned casual decks. It's a hell of a lot of fun, and is a much more powerful format for a Lhurgoyf. Sadly, that's the only place it's a powerhouse.

Ya, which is what I was basically getting at in terms of limits. Either way, it comes down to deck design and what you are playing.

Let's forget about Tarmo and the "creature-that-I-don't-speak-the-name" and talk about formats. Which formats you guys play? I'm returning to Magic now, so I'm mainly playing standard, but I pretend to go back to Legacy after getting some experience with the new expansions and all.

My friend and I play a game called 300.
Minimum deck size is 150 cards. You each start with 300 life. Winner yells "This is Sparta" and knocks the rest of the library over on the killing blow.
Fun times.

That was the first thing that I thought when I saw the previews. Huge disappointment. They're basically all the same with some minor re-textures.
