If your deck is 40 spells you'll never be mana flooded again.

Magic: the Gathering: playing at a PTQ, winning rounds 1 and 2, then mulling to 5 4 games in a row due to not having enough lands playing an 18 land deck.

I Love You! posted:Having 11 lands by turn 11 of a game in draft is generally not a good sign. Having 11 lands by turn 11 of the next game is probably also not good. I think I need to change up my strategies because this one just isn't working out. Any suggestions that don't involve tearing off my own hands? I don't think I need them anymore.

Just pulled a Sarkhan on modo. Is it safe to assume that he will make huge waves at the PT and should go up a bit? 23 tickets is pretty good but I don't wanna hold onto it only for him to underwhelm and drop.

If it was safe to assume that then he'd already be higher. If I had to guess I'd say he'll stay close to where he is now.

It's not safe to assume anything about the PT. Also Sarkhan is currently like, the most expensive card in Standard so even if he performs amazingly the price probably won't rise. He's as in-demand as he'll ever be right now.

I can see a metagame where he is marginalized and I wouldn't be shocked if he didn't do anything special at the PT. Then again, its hard to tell, which is why I don't spec on cards.

on modo especially i would presume that he would go down, especially this early on with relatively few khans packs opened

Probably not much of a difference either way. His price is already inflated, but there's an off chance he sweeps the top 8 and you make a little extra. MTGO prices don't move THAT quickly, so if you watch the PT and can make a reasonable call on his viability during coverage you'll be fine.

My pre-release ended Sunday night at about 4 a.m. He was sitting at 40ish at 4am and I sold him for $24 at noon on Monday. He has room to move back up but demand has to climb to "just released and not available" levels to see that price again. Given how much khans is going to be drafted I might buy 1-2 to play with now but $25 is not a great spec price imo

Honestly this early on after a set's release the right thing to do on MODO is sell everything you get because on average prices are much higher than they'll be even three weeks from now.

tgijsola posted:Honestly this early on after a set's release the right thing to do on MODO is sell everything you get because on average prices are much higher than they'll be even three weeks from now. This is the correct answer. The vast majority of cards go down from their initial price just after release.

If you hold the lands in your hand instead of playing them, your opponent won't play anything because they'll know you have answers to it all. But the joke's on them; you can't even cast your spells because you have 11 lands in your hand! (Play Reliquary Tower obviously.)

It's important to note that early on after release a lot of bot chains have ridiculously low buy list prices on cards with the intention of selling them for way more. Especially within the first week of release. Sell your cards to players.

I think the solution to drawing 11 lands by turn 11 is to draft Shadowmoor Shadowmoor Eventide.

Apparently Hymn, Sinkhole and Strip Mine are. 4x High Tide, 4x Treasure Cruise, 20x Cantrips, bunch of free spells? Yes please. e: High Tide is available, Frantic Search isn't. Presumably they can just update the banned list temporarily for an easy fix. Ahahahaha they're gonna let the Dailies go through like this aren't they.

You know, I was out. I was clean and happy for like 6 months. I made Legend in Hearthstone, was working on a hobby game, I'd moved across the country and was meeting new people. I even ditched my old PC for a Macbook, just to keep temptation away. Times were good. But then I hear I should maybe try drafting KtK once. That it might be "my thing". From what I can tell, that was a week ago, but it's hard to say. All I know is I woke up this morning, face on my keyboard, to a virtual machine running the devil itself. There was a New Product dialog open with 8 Smoke Tellers, 4 Awaken the Bear, 8 packs, and a QP. I'm scared. Edit: I'm in another draft now and I hate what I'm becoming. rinski fucked around with this message at 02:02 on Oct 10, 2014 |

So this is a legal pauper deck on MTGO right now. Good times. What should happen: they hotfix before the dailies tomorrow. What might happen: they let this crazy stuff go through. What probably will happen: they cancel Pauper dailies until this bug gets fixed, and then never fix it because gently caress me for playing Pauper.

Pro tip: If you Nemesis Wave for 6 and hit End Hostilities, put it on the stack after all the creatures. (Kenji just put it on the stack first and his reaction is golden, he's so deflated)

Boco_T posted:Maybe I'm blind, but how does the deck win? Draw your whole deck, make a million mana, then...attack with 4 Cloud of Faeries over 5 turns? Use Ghostly Flicker repeatedly alongside Mnemonic Wall to cast all the Snaps you want. You have unlimited mana and your Cloud of Faeries are really easy to protect with Ghostly Flicker, so yeah you just attack 5 times and keep all your opponent's permanents off the table.

I wasn't sure what kind of finisher I wanted. Probably going to go down to 14 islands, add a cantrip and a Mind Sculpt as the finisher. Didn't want to put effort into it if it wasn't going to be playable tomorrow.
