Whisperwood Elemental is a good card though.

Chill la Chill posted:Compare it to whisper wood's price history and similarity in usage and hype. I don't get the comparison. Whisperwood started at $6-7 and had gone up to $12. Deathmist already starting at $15. Also Whisperwood is good in any green deck because of its standalone power level. Deathmist is only conditionally good in a deck that can synergize with it.

Mezzanon posted:I mirror mockery' my sidisi in a 2hg game while I had the u/b dragon that makes target opponent sac a creature when you do. Felt good man. It was two turns after my girlfriend dropped Ugin and wiped the board. If you MM a Sidisi, the copy ETB, then the exploit trigger goes on the stack, then either the token or the original is killed as a SBA. If you choose to keep the original then when the exploit trigger resolves you may sac a dude but doing so does not tutor because the creature that generated the trigger, Token-Sidisi, is no longer around. If you choose to keep the token you get to sac and tutor but you lose your Sidisi in the bargain in exchange for a copy that vanishes at the end of combat. Don't MM your own legendary dudes.

If you want to play with it down the line you'll either break even or save money.

They're doing a Modern Rotisserie Draft with a bunch of famous players and you can follow along on Google Docs, it's a slow draft. To get you hyped, Marshall Sutcliffe took first pick Batterskull and just now Rashad Miller took FIRST PICK GLIMPSE THE UNTHINKABLE~! https://t.co/mVjSB86GCt

I wonder what the statistics are on cards that go up from their pre-order price vs ones that go down, or if there's certain price ranges that are more likely to go up (i.e. cards that pre-order at $8-$10 go up 60% of the time or whatever). I feel like cards don't live up to their pre-release price hype most of the time but there has to be a sweet spot of "this card looks cool but no one knows, so it's $4 now. Oh wait it actually owns, now it's $10"Boco_T posted:They're doing a Modern Rotisserie Draft with a bunch of famous players and you can follow along on Google Docs, it's a slow draft. gently caress yeah Glimpse.

Rashad also has the luck of being 6th in the draft order. Odds are Sam Black and BDM are going to spend their snake picks on their own archetypes.

I'm on MODO for the first time and am doing a phantom newbie draft. I need to learn the controls, although I have a basic idea of what goes on based on the stupid amount of time I spend watching draft videos. First opponent never showed up. How often should I expect to just sit and wait? Is each round a guaranteed 55 minutes or will the next round start sooner if everyone is done? DO I HAVE TO KEEP SITTING HERE?

You used to be able to watch the other matches to pass the time while you were waiting (like you can in real life), but IIRC they removed that after people complained about it mostly being used to scope out everyone else's deck (so you'd know what you had to play around when you faced them).

MiddleEastBeast posted:FYI I don't think you can logically hold both these views. They're both shards with the same split of land cards available to them, and where blue has Anticipate green has Sylvan Carytid. Either they're both bad or they're both good. They are both somewhere between horrible and good.

Confirming that ramp is the best strategy in legacy cube: In the previous game I went turn 1 elf into turn 2 Nature's Lore plus Rofellos into turn 3 Woodfall Primus. I also have a sneak attack.

Office Commando posted:
Looks okay, but you really rely on Aura Gnarlid and Spiritdancer.. You should definitely be playing Guard Duty to deal with any Eldrazi, and Affa Guard Hound because you only have 11 creatures than can attack. Spiritdancer and Aura Gnarlid are both very strong cards, so if you can get an Umbra onto one of them you probably win. However if an opponent can deal with an Auraed creature, such as with Narcolepsy, or Induce Despair, or just killing it before you suit it up, I don't see you winning at all. A bunch of bears is not what I want to play in this format.

Sotar posted:What is expensive besides Narset, Sarkhan and Deathmist Raptor? I mean, if I can find 3 Dromoka's Commands before every deck in SCG;s top 8 this weekend has a playset (yes even the UB control decks), it'll be affordable, but if I can't they're going to be  each. That's my primary concern.Also Sarkhan and Thunderbreak Regent. The latter will be kept in check by being in the event deck somewhat but I still peg it as a $8 card I'll need 4 of.
