His opponent was literally doing nothing the entire time just to see his deck, though.

I do like that list a lot though. That's a nice list. Now if it actually works in an actual match..

He posted the list on SCG a week or so ago, and apparently he shares my love of Scorn. Good man, Shaheen, good man.

Maybe Jim will put up more of a fight this game.

Shaheen's landbase looks overly greedy though, I wouldn't be surprised if he drops a game or two from that. Like that game, ouch.

Looks like Shaheen is gonna pull it out, but I can't say I'm impressed by his deck at all outside of Dragonlord Ojutai doing work. He would have been bodied if Jim drew anything other than lands.

Time to get pumped for Jeskai Tokens. It won't be Michael Major's idea for creatureless tokens unfortunately, but still.

I'm just happy we get to see some Legacy on stream again. I know it doesn't get as much eyeballs, but I think it sucks that SCG only streams Standard both days of an Open now.

Opened my fat pack for this set and it's almost alarming how worthless this set is. I knew that going in of course, but I'd like to think the fat pack per set I buy is usually worth more than 5 bucks total (0 in reality).

drat man, first Sultai Reanimator does work (and pretty much ignores the "reanimator" part of the name) then DRAGONS kicks rear end. This block sates the Timmy, Johnny, and Spike in me all at once. e: Jeff Hoogland is Billy Quizboy? Balon fucked around with this message at 21:55 on Mar 27, 2015 |

mcmagic posted:This list is great and Narset is great. Like I've been saying. The problem is we didn't see the list do anything at all really. Narset basically did nothing the entire match since his opponent didn't put up any kind of meaningful resistance in either of the winning games and Shaheen got color screwed in the second game.

Set itself is apparently fine for limited (we'll find out starting tonight), but EV-wise, yikes. The three expensive cards are Sarkhan, Narset and Deathmist, none of which seem great. I think Sidisi is undervalued though.
