"Why should only the Eldrazi get fast mana in Modern? Who are these Eldrazi, anyway? When I'm president, I'm going to seal off the Blind Eternities and make Emrakul pay for it! I'm gonna reprint Sol Ring in the fall set and Make Modern Great Again!" - Donald Trump, probably

Of course the metagame would be appear skewed if you used lovely reporting like that.

 seems like it's someone affiliated w/ Marchesa b/c of the rose Although I'm hoping there are multiple rose factions so the set can be about a war of the roses.

I built a U Delver pauper deck on MTGO for like 9 tickets total today. Am I playing Magic correctly now? I'm hoping leagues make me like MTGO again. But I doubt it.

Zoness posted:isn't the fish version of delver better? Regular delver seems to place 5-0 more regularly lately. But having 2 colors is always nice. I mean it was literally 9 tickets so I'm not that concerned. I turned a random Thunderbreak Regent, Crackling Doom, 2 Rattleclaw Mystics, a Silkwrap, and a ticket I had lying around in my MTGO account into this entire deck. The Angler Delver list is more and doesn't seem to be overtly more powerful.

OK in my defence I'm not that aggressive in chat normally, Rimusutera deserves it.

It does, however, kill Ojutai and thunderbreak regent (without the damage), which is actually relevant for standard..

Wow, I forgot she had that ability, whoops. For Standard it does kill Ojutai when he's not swinging I suppose, and in Legacy/Vintage Emrakul dies to it.
