If I'm stupid enough to play the Gauntlet thing I shouldn't be salty it assigns me Burn, yet again.

TheKingofSprings posted:Honestly it sounds like a really reasonable approximation for what Modern is at this point in time Match was 10 minutes long. The sequence was drop dudes turn 1 and 2, then just drop a three burn spells for the win. It's not interesting in any way. It's barely even Magic; its just stupid Spike poo poo that wins tournaments sometimes. I mean, it doesn't even have the amusement level that Turn 2 Emrakul swinging has. It's just outright dumb.

Whoa hey man don't talk bad about burn or you'll have a bunch of people yelling at you about things like sequencing that are irrelevant 99% of the time anyway.

playing the modern gauntlet and of course Naya Burn with Goyf is 4-0 after I was having lots of fun trying Goryobrand for the first time. Of course my sideboard had 4x Leyline for some godawful reason instead of something useful like removal

came back for more, got saddled with Izzet Eldrazi which was hilarious because my first opponent was running the UR control list with Pia & Kiran, Batterskull, and four mainboard Blood Moon. They never missed a drop  (still won bc Reality Smasher is loving aces) Four Score fucked around with this message at 10:23 on Feb 12, 2016 |

How much play did Madness see when it was last around? Did people build decks around it? I've started to wonder if they would reprint LotV in Eldritch Moon. It's a bit daft but I noticed she's in the same outfit she wore for the card in the promo art for the set. She'd be nuts with Madness. Don't know how I'd feel about it, it would devalue my playset, but I'd have a playset of the best card in standard day one.

Losing the lottery with the Gauntlet is getting that piece of poo poo Abzan deck, which doesn't even have two basic plains to cast Archangel of Thune out of a Blood Moon (hope that for your Bird/Hierarch they don't have Bolt/Electrolyze/Anger/Snapcaster/Izzet Staticaster loving lol!!!) And if you do get out Archangel? Cryptic/Burst Lightning kicked!

UG Madness was dope and the first "budget" Standard deck I can remember, as a lot of the deck was commons and uncommons (Mongrel, Basking Rootwalla, Arrogant Wurm, Roar of the Wurm, Circular Logic etc.) The only rares I can remember going into the deck were Call of the Herd (a chase rare in its day) and Spellbane Centaur. And it was one of the decks to beat back then! The Magic of my youth was a simpler time indeed.

Enablers: 4x Wild Mongrel 4x Aquamoeba Madness cards: 4x Basking Rootwalla 4x Arrogant Wurm 4x Circular Logic Other: 2x Wonder Then you can add Roar of the Wurm or Careful Study or whatever to mix.

How does madness play with end of turn discard? Does it go on the stack during my opponent's upkeep?

You play it during the clean up step, and then the clean up step starts over again. The same way triggered abilities are put onto the stack that begin at the end of your turn.

OK whoever said Eye of Ugin was the more broken land in the Eldrazi deck was right. Sigh.... I guess Tron is gonna get the splash ban.

LSV and Marsh Hulk are basically the only Magic personalities I don't find off-putting in some way or another.

If you guys haven't watched LSV's latest stream, go watch it in his past broadcasts. He drafts that sick 6-Saw deck, and then calls Owen in for some...unusual opinions. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time.

mcmagic posted:I had to play with the deck myself. Yeah the thing is, when you play the deck, you realize Temple only ever taps for 2 mana. Once you're casting multiple spells in a turn Eye is generating 4 or 6 mana, which goes beyond Ancient Tomb and into like, Gaea's Cradle-level stupid.

That being said, banning Temple DOES nerf the deck a lot.. I'm just not sure it nerfs it enough.

Eye of Ugin is more powerful but at the same time Eldrazi Temple is almost certainly enough of a hit to the deck.

I think they'll try to avoid splash damage from bannings if they can.

To be honest Tron could afford to take a hit. Losing Eye maybe might let a control deck actually exist, except for all the other reasons why control decks don't exist.

I haven't heard a good argument for not banning Eye other than people who play Tron, and I don't think it's a compelling argument.
