Someone on FB posted about how MTGO has a bug to allow Soul of the Harvest in Standard decks. He found out when he played vs a WotC employee (WotC_Coverage)... Who had it in their deck. And played it.  ThePeavstenator posted:Played in my first PTQ today after starting Magic a little less than a year ago and got Top 8. Pretty happy right now. That's solid results, great job!

FYI Wotc_Coverage aren't employee accounts necessarily, they're coverage accounts given out to the main, well, coverage people so they can be informed for when they do coverage- Gaby Spartz has one.

Network42 posted:What is $1 burrito, I'm not familiar with this pauper deck. It's the name I've given the Pauper 1-land spy, in honor of Breakfast Burrito. Ritual effects, mana dorks that sac themselves, mill yourself with Balustrade Spy, Haunting Misery for the win. Ironically one of the more expensive Pauper decks now due to Lotus Petal and Simian Spirit Guides. The reason I say "without SBs" is that both this deck and Tortured Existence fold hard to graveyard hate. TE is also vulnerable to enchantment destruction. TE is a fun, value grind deck if you're dicking with friends without 2-of-3 play. Strong, but not impossible to conventionally beat. $1 Burrito is fun for a gotcha gimmick but is honestly unfair and way too inconsistent to be played regularly.

standard.deviant posted:It's not a bug, it was in the 2016 Welcome Deck and is thus legal in Standard.  I even checked Magiccards.info, they apparently don't have Welcome Decks on there. And thanks for the info on WotC_Coverage accounts, I had no idea.

Count Bleck posted:Thus solidifying the stereotype that all magic players are sociopaths. Or you have an abusive/mentally ill parent that you don't want/can't be around. If you have a mother worth even half a gently caress call/visit her and tell her that you love her and that your lucky to have her around you grognards, especially if you have one that cares about or supports your magic or any other weird hobbies.

Oh, I'm familiar with that deck. http://www.mtgsalvation.com/forums/the-game/magic-online-formats/pauper/developing/526593-1-land-spy $1 Burrito is an absolutely terrible name for a deck that plays 4 lotus petal 4 simian spirit guide 4 git probe.

Oh sorry, I misread. I guess probably so it can cast Tinder Wall or Wild Cantor on turn 1 and have extra mana on turn 2?

Rinkles posted:Watching McLaren's recent streams, Ancestral Vision looks terrible. Without any cascade spells, I think it was a safe unban. Funny enough, the deck probably getting the best use out of it is Mono-U Turns. None of the recent unbans have had a major effect.

Rinkles posted:Watching McLaren's recent streams, Ancestral Vision looks terrible. It is. I still play it because it's janky fun and because you can flash it back with Goblin Dank-Memers which is like, a 19-for-1 or something. I've been saying for 2 years that unbanning the slowest card in the world wouldn't do anything in modern. Next up: Jace unban so I can be proven right about him too. Also so I can sell my foil for $2k.

TheKingofSprings posted:The door is opened for Stoneforge Another card that would do nothing because it's glacially slow and leaves you super open to removal and discard. Stoneforge at least has the upside of making burn waste a spell to kill her so you don't get a turn 3 Batterskull (which would probably be too slow anyway) but it doesn't do a whole lot else against any other deck in the format without Jitte. And you're still high for wanting Jitte unbanned.

I just want good equipment, if Stoneforge gets unbanned I'm completely fine with Jitte rotting on the list

Jitte was so loving oppressive in Kamigawa/Rav standard. If your opponent had one in opening hand and a cheap creature and you didn't have an immediate answer, gently caress you basically

I'm very fond of my Esper Mill list for Modern, I used to think it was lovely but I keep taking it to events and coming away with prize payouts so maybe it's actually good? I also like my Captain Sisay EDH deck for being the first deck I ever designed and built completely from scratch, but I haven't played EDH in almost a year so
