Sickening posted:By wizards standards, isn't most of the infect deck on its own special reserved list? I feel like these cards should be even more expensive considering they are never going to be reprinted again. Most of the competitive cards with infect on them that aren't the rare manland are common or uncommon, so they're never be too expensive by Magic standards. Magic, ahem, standards.

I feel like these cards should be even more expensive considering they are never going to be reprinted again. Most of the cards unique to that deck are commons and uncommons aren't they? The only rares in that deck are lands and Noble Hierarchs, which are relatively reprintable, except for Inkmoth Nexus, which is the one card in the deck I'm surprised isn't $50 by now. Glistener Elf and Blighted Agent aren't getting reprinted any time soon, but they were commons. They'll slowly creep up as long as the deck continues to be a thing, but they were opened enough that I'd be surprised to see them spike unless Infect suddenly becomes the deck to beat.

Also, halimar depths. Never hurts to move a non land from third to the top so you draw it instead of treasure hunting for two. It helps find Reliquary tower too. Don't treasure hunt on turn two without a Reliquary tower. Don't drop a land before you treasure hunt on turn three+ because you might find the Reliquary tower and can use it for your land drop.

Elyv posted:it's a pyroclasm you can find with ancient stirrings Sure, but typically Tron has to hit Pyroclasm turn 2 if it wants to not lose to Infect, Burn, Boggles, Merfolk, (insert other aggro here). I'm not too familiar with the matchup but I'm willing to bet turn 2 pyroclasm is pretty critical against Green White Hate Bears too. Turn 3 is just too slow to get your board wipe effect off. Not only that but it's only good when your on the play. If your not interacting with a Aggro deck in Modern before they hit their 3rd land drop your gonna have a bad time. Merfolk will have the critical mass out by then, Burn might just flat out kill you turn 3, and will definitely kill you turn 4 if you didn't do something to slow them down during your turn 2. Infect can kill you turn 2 with a nuts hand, and is looking to have their critical mass of cards on turn 3. Boggles has already suited a boggle enough that your Return won't even kill it. Hatebears probably has you under several tax effects. It's just too slow.

Hatebears probably has you under several tax effects. It's just too slow. Hatebears is often a play/draw thing because if you do anything other than turn 1 egg into pyro on the draw, there's a chance you just get shut out by an arbiter and you're not coming back from that without rending volleys. It's one of those decks that simply cannot win once Ugin or an Oblivion Stone resolves, but if they can start strip mining you it becomes very difficult to crawl out from under while Smiter beats you to death. Not sure how you managed to miss affinity as that's another deck which can just completely blank pyro (via ravager buffs and manlands), but I think it's worth considering how other new toys like Warping Wail interact with those decks. As an example, it gives Tron a non-pyro way to kill infect's creatures that doesn't need a coloured source, as well as make blockers at instant speed. If anything, I'm interested to see how newer tron decklists pan out and whether they manage to fit wails into the main easily.

Good. I want Emrakul to visit plane after plane, never having a direct impact, but rather building armies, like a Genestealer cult. I don't want a new Emrakul card, I don't want eldrazi, I just want the chaos that follows her. I want the next year to be a scavenger hunt, hints of the visitation somewhere in background art, heroes gone mad, and tokens for cards that don't exist yet, teasing us with what will be. That's what I want. But I'm a stupid newbie, so what do I know.
