AlsoD posted:Archeomancer + Battlefield Thaumaturge on the board. 1 Archeomancer + 3 Thaumaturge + 1 BTE + Twinflame = infinite hasty guys. Getting the 3 Thaumaturges isn't that bad considering that you have twinflame. e:wait, BTE makes GR, not RR. Nevermind.

AlsoD posted:Archeomancer + Battlefield Thaumaturge on the board. I'm definitely cramming a couple Twinflame into my Boros red devotion deck. It can hit Burning-Tree like you said for a good devotion boost followed by the bonus of Nykthos fuel, and more importantly there's the possibility of doubling up or maybe even tripling a Fanatic of Mogis depending on how silly you can get with Nykthos.

Fingers McLongDong posted:Ok thanks. Never hurts to be sure. Extremely detailed article about why the author thinks WotC is aware that fetchlands need a reprinting in an expert set, perhaps Huey or 2015's fall set? Some of this info was pre-Modern Masters so its possible with MM's success that they instead put a lot of these cards in MM2 next year.

I just want to win by Twinflame-ing two Biovisionaries. e: I just realized that you can use Sundial to keep your Twinflame copies around. More fuel for my stupid Sedris Sundial EDH deck! vOv fucked around with this message at 20:43 on Apr 15, 2014 |

Dr. Stab posted:Satyr Hedonist works instead of BTE for infinite guys. Don't you need two Thaumaturges for this to be mana positive? Or at least, 5 mana to copy your Archeomancer, Hedonist and Thaumaturge before you chain off copying the first two (remember that Twincast can target tokens!)

Fingers McLongDong posted:Ok thanks. Never hurts to be sure. It's been a while since I played Pod, so I could be off here, but I don't think I'd want to Pod into Athreos in most situations. It doesn't have an ETB ability and you can't Pod it away under most circumstances. It does give your other creatures extra Pod value, but it doesn't play nice with Persist. On top of all that, I'm not sure what you would cut for it.

You don't need to go infinite, you just need to get one token copy of Archeomancer and keep recurring Druids' Deliverance every turn.

Dr. Stab posted:Athreos. Oh, yeah. If the persist trigger resolves first, the creature returns to the battlefield and then the 'return to hand' choice does nothing. If the Athreos trigger resolves first, your opponent either pays 3 life and it returns to the battlefield, or doesn't and it returns to your hand. You get to pick.

While I'm not sure how much JiN will affect the big Standard SCG Opens and GPs and PTQs, it's one of those weird situations where I think FNMs are going to become way more interesting and varied. There just seems to be so many cards that people are going to want to play around with and test locally and try to build decks around. This set seems like it's going to be so much more fun than Theros or BotG were.

^^^ One of the funner things is that JOU is adding more synergies to strategies people want to try out but can't because the redundancy isn't there. Ajani's Chosen + lots of enchantments = easily a sweet tier 2 deck. People discussing infinite combos that can come down on turn 4-5 and in the right colors as other combos. Lots of fun things that allow brewers to actually do things.Dr. Clockwork posted:Have they spoiled anything yet for the Modern Event Deck which comes out next month and costs $75?

The picture of the Modern Event Deck floating around is a pre-production mockup and is not completely accurate to what's final."  Hero of Bladehold, Elspeth Knight Errant, Intangible Virtue, and Honor of the Pure are the cards listed.

Word is on twitter that stores are not getting more than "one case" of these event decks either, which is apparently four of them. So the people who are "losing value" are going to be unhappy and so is anyone who wants to buy one of these for less than $100/at all.

Well, neither of my distributors have put a cap on my pre-orders as far as I know, just that it has to be in multiples of 4. I'm sure it will get allocated, but it sounds like stores will definitely receive more than 4.

Which...is about twice as much as the playset of Marsh Flats that'd be in those four.

Matt Tabak commented on his tumblr that the release notes are 'coming soon', which is essentially meaningless but could mean tonight. The release notes usually mean a lot of new spoilers in order to explain weirdness.

Who was the goon a few weeks ago talking about a Karametra EDH deck? Would you be willing to post a quick decklist for that if you have one and are reading this post? I got bored at work and started brainstorming one, and I'm curious to see what a Karametra deck looks like.
