Everyone wants to see the U/B Aristocrats deck but we only saw it in passing so nobody knows what the deck does other than a few counters.

I got really excited when it was mentioned that Calcano untapped with Nantuko Husk, cast Whirler Rogue, made husk unblockable and then sacrificed everything to the husk and swung for lethal.

He won't give me the list, even after I told him I'm playing it in a tournament that's giving out free hotdogs and hamburgers. I want to be the BBQ Champion.

He did give me advice on what to order on my burger though. (Bacon, cheese, onions, lettuce, ketchup.)

If they haven't apologized for Siege Rhino then Nantuko Husk doing work in a highly synergy-focused deck is not that hosed up.

There are like 5 different creatures with the same rules text of sac a guy get +2/+2 and Nantuko Husk is the first one to do work in constructed, like, ever. If this is enough to make them call it a mistake then they would have to call "draw a card" or "flying" or "deals 2 damage" abject failures.

Are you the one who posted the GB list? I just happened to have all the non-Lili cards that cost anything (in Russian nonetheless) so I threw it together. I might actually play standard for the 3rd time in my life some time this year. I just need a few random Russian C/Us plus the Lilis to have a 100% Russian standard deck because why is that not a thing that someone would have?

They didn't straight up apologize, but they did admit that siege rhino was created in response to a problem they'd already fixed.

Why yes!

Recently I've taken out a Caterpillar for a Cut in the sideboard. I also replaced two Carrier Thralls with Sultai Emissaries. They cost me a game today in the most unlikely way (died, manifested a Collected Company :barf:) Otherwise they did work, like manifesting Cutthroat after a board wipe.

...my greatest work yet.
Went 4-0 at FNM tonight dropping only a single game with Atarka Red. I've been playing it for months but this new version that drops rabble masters and hordeling outbursts for Titan Strengths and Temur Battle Cry - it's on a whole other level.

Round 1 was against esper Dragons, I killed him on turn 4 both games.
Round 2 was against UW awaken control, he lasted to turn 5 one game. Good for him.
Round 3 was against Mardu Dragons, he cast Radiant Flames for 2 against Zurgo & Swiftspear - I was holding an Atarka's Command. Double Titan's Strength finished him off.
Round 4 was against Temur Midrange, and I narrowly lost game 2 to being 1 land short of both an Atarka's Command & Titan's Strength to finish him before he got me. Game 1 and 3 lasted to turn 4 & 5 respectively, to which my opponent credits my wisely Slashing his Turn 2 Rattleclaw both games.

I wasn't planning on playing standard this season but I already have this whole deck built and it plays 2 BFZ cards. It's already won me $30 in store credit so it can't be so bad.
