I hope Pore finds its way into some weird eternal deck with a land that taps for loads of mana. I'm not going to suggest where

Andrast posted:We are going to get an evil corrupted UB Taimiyo in Eldritch Moon who is then killed by fire. Ugh. Putting her in the worst color combination and then killing her? I'd hope not. Besides, she's not nearly important enough to do that to but has enough of a face to dodge death as well. You only die in Magic after being incredibly important or appearing for exactly one story.

Fingers McLongDong posted:So looking at pro tour lists that went 8-2 or better and noticed some fun things. One, there was an archangel/spike feeder deck that went 9-1 in constructed but didn't place well because of how poorly he did in limited. Also, Michael Majors went 8-2 in constructed with a zoo deck that had 4 burning tree emissary and 4 reckless bushwacker, along with a single devastating summons. The zoo deck would actually be pretty budget friendly if it weren't for the 4 tarmogoyfs. The zoo deck is fun as hell to play, along with having game against eldrazi (and many other decks) by going wide. I'm not sold on the misers summons, and think I might test cutting a Heath for a Ghost Quarter just for the land blowin' up flexibility. But for now I've shelved burn for it. Last night I had a turn 3 kill off of a t1 nacatl into t2 BTE into BTE into experiment one and kird ape into t3 swing all + atarkas command. But then I read this from the maintainer of the mtgsalvation zoo thread: "Nope. I'm officially done. I just lost to eldrazi with a litteral nut draw. Got them down to 5 on turn 3. Then lost. He complained that I made 6 mana on turn 2 with 2 burning trees, then went a head and made tons of it on his own. Litterally, I made 6 "free" mana in 2 games. game 1 with two burning-trees and game 2 with one. He made over 12. You've got to be *****ting me. I'm done." So surprisingly aggro zoo still gets beat by big-zoo-that-also-ramps-and-has-etb-effects ShaneB fucked around with this message at 15:29 on Feb 9, 2016 |

Elyv posted:someone on IRC found these on reddit Angry Grimace posted:The plot of this block sounds like its Jace's Murder Mystery Time and oh hey a Tamiyo reference. I guess the plot is really uncovering whatever heinous poo poo Sorin actually did, although it sorta sounds like Tamiyo got murdered somewhere along the way. It was Olivia Voldaren in the Haunted Fengraf with the Trepanation Blade! Yergie posted:So after seeing the SoI leak, specifically the homonculus with Skulk, I realized that every two color combo has their own keyword now. Some of the combos are a bit looser, like with flying, but WotC tries to build their limited strategy in W/U in tempo and flyers. A bunch of those do show up in other colors, but much less frequently and usually at higher rarities.

So at Worlds 2005 in NYC, me and my friend did an Urzas sealed event. When it was done I put the cards in the tournament pack box, put them in another box, and basically haven't looked at them since. I was just going through them again to see if I missed something worth anything, and then I flip to the back where I put the rares. What do I see? Metalworker

Barry Shitpeas posted:It's true that decks that actually run black generally have Terminate or Abrupt Decay instead, but it is ahead of any mono-black option: Disfigure, Doom Blade, &c. I think it's interesting to consider whether B, kicker 1B, -5/-5, lose 4 life unless kicked would be playable, but that is essentially the bar that any mono-B removal spell has to clear. It's hard to judge how it stacks up directly with straight black removal just because there aren't really mono-color decks in Modern, so any deck with black in it naturally going to have access to spells like the ones you mentioned above. That said, if we were in a hypothetical mono-black deck, remember that BB cards like Victim of Night and Grasp of Darkness are also on the table.

It's like if the best counterspell was UR that would restrict what colour combinations you could play blue in.

So seeing two packs it really looks like flashback isn't returning, surprised the hell out of me. It would be funny/sad if Reality Smasher get's devalued by people using it to cast madness spells.

BizarroAzrael posted:So seeing two packs it really looks like flashback isn't returning, surprised the hell out of me. Given that there isn't any 2 mana removal that even hits Reality Smasher and Murderous Cut is rotating, I'm a little doubtful since you'd have to afford the spell plus the Madness cost. I expect Stasis Snare to see more play with W/G/X being less likely to be the default best combination of colors and Stasis Snare doesn't care about Reality Smasher's discard clause. *Roast isn't rotating, actually.

Realistically, I'd like a Tibalt that isn't garbage. Tibalt, The Better One 2R +1: Tibalt deals 4 damage to target creature and 2 damage to you. - 3: Gain control of target creature until end of turn. Untap it. It gains haste until end of turn. - 6: You gain an emblem with "At the beginning of your upkeep, gain control of target creature. Untap it. It gains haste until end of turn." Loyalty 3
