Is LSV's deck running any removal at all? Or any non-creature spells besides Cryptolith Rites?

The good news for the deck this weekend is almost no one else is running a significant removal suite either. Go wide or go fast are the two main strategies with not too much care to what the other player is doing.

I didn't see him cast any yet in the bits of coverage I've seen so far but it makes sense his deck would be running them. And anyone know what his mana base looks like? Is he bothering with Hissing Quagmire or does he not want CITPT lands with how low to the ground the deck is?

He's definitely running Company in it. Because I saw him hit two Cutthroats off one.

I posted a decklist that is super close if not card for card in the 60. And yes, it is a coco deck and is one of the main reasons its good. It leads to all sort of combo-y interactions with rite.

End of Life Guy posted:I put together a list that's similar and am taking it to FNM and SCG States tomorrow because frustrating jank is my lifeblood. I'm just fine trying to win without any creatures at all, but I'm seeing one issue in the maindeck: it's weak against manlands. Especially Lumbering Falls. This reminds me, I think two of those three cards I couldn't remember are To The Slaughter, maybe all three. Also, I wish I didn't always work Fri and Sat so I could see all the sweet PT decks, but on the other hand, I rarely actually get to play either, so it's not the end of the world.

I've been playing people on MODO who are on that Aristocrats deck and holy hell do these dudes get smoked if you drop Kalitas. I can only assume LSV has some spicy tech for it because its rough.

A friend brought over some Pauper decks and we played for hours. Pauper is cool and good. I need more of that in my life.

I tried using Pucatrade to build a modern deck. I had Splinter Twins on my list for a month and a half, the banned list was released early, and 45 minutes after the announcement I checked my list to remove them and lo and behold, somebody's sending! I don't use Pucatrade anymore.

Brought BW control to FNM tonight for my first post-rotation standard event. Started out strong, easily beating UW spirits and BR vampires, but then lost to WB midrange and Bant CoCo. I was hoping to go against humans since I beat the deck easily, but didn't see it all night. I got a little salty last round v CoCo as I sided in Transgresses and Duresses, but whiffed on 6 spells across games 2&3. Then in game 3 I Duressed, got nothing, and the next turn Secured the Wastes for 8 - to find out he top decked a Negate. It was bad, I was salty.

I know this probably a bad question, but here goes: how do I best esper dragons? I'm playing black white control and not having a good run of it. Would dead weight and to the slaughter help? My creatures are 3 hangar backs, 2 Avacyn and 2 Kalitas. Rest is kill and draw plus Gideon, Ob, and sorin. Green white humans shot on me too. Beat blue red tutelage mill and black red vampires though. My deck is super fun.

Placed Second with BW Control at FNM. Self-Inflicted Wound is worthless and I'm swapping them out for Flaying Tendrils for Hoomans.

You guys rocking the no creature build? It looks super cool. I wanna try that out. My sideboard doesn't have answers for humans.

I'm running no creatures mainboard except Linvala, specifically because it helps me stabilize against aggro and can block Avacyn profitably.

I've been enjoying Bant Company pretty immensely (I liked CoCo decks when the cards was $9 and Rally was some new weird thing, so please don't hate me for it), but my inner pauper player wants to make some insane grindfest deck around the Den Protector / Pulse of Murasa / Goblin Dark Dwellers shell. I'd probably go full Jund for Read the Bones, K-Command, and a manland to go with Syvlan Advocates (and maybe some Kalitas) but the general gist is that eternal recursion gets me excited.

Do any MTGO players here buy tickets from bots for cash? i was thinking about splurging but it seems like hoops and risk for a 6% bonus.
