I don't know how you guys get bant spirits to work. I feel like it putters out so quickly if you have to deal with any amount of counter magic.

Hey guys guess what, on MTGO if you have a stack of tokens and your opponent has a Tamiyo, Field Researcher, you're hosed - there isn't a way to tell which token is effected by an ability. Have fun guessing! if anyone knows a way around this, I'm all ears - I spent 8 minutes off my clock talking with the ORCs and hoping for the best. e: this is the kind of frustrating bullshit that makes me hate MTGO - why the gently caress doesn't hovering over the ability in the game log not show which cards were targeted by the card and still under its effect? e2: just so no one misses this: https://twitter.com/Bigward28/status/828297068443746306 Hellsau fucked around with this message at 08:40 on Feb 6, 2017 |

Don't go too wide and fire off your CoCo all Willy-nilly. Get a rattlechains out, you can play almost your whole deck on your opponents' turn. Get a cavern out, they also can't counter your ghosts. Don't coco until it's your opponents' turn, and they've cast something.

Commencement of Festivities (1G, prevent combat damage to players), Encircling Fissure (2W, prevent combat damage by opponent's creatures), Repel the Abominable (1W, prevent combat damage by non-humans). Engulf the Shore I guess is also a fog, but has pretty big deckbuilding constraints. Not a fantastic selection, especially since the only real "turbo" is Fevered Visions which puts you in four colours. I guess Tamiyo's Journal also counts if you squint enough?

I feel like I don't want 2 or 3 mana fogs when the deck attacking for 3 on t2 and 6-7 on t3 also gets to play mana leak tbh

DangerDongs posted:This is a really good idea. I've only played the deck a couple times and with Saffi/Rallier once. Voice is a really good card that makes your opponent main phase everything until they use a removal spell on it. Saffi and Rallier did some work for me this past weeeknd. There were turns where I'd crack a fetch, play rallier, put the land back in play, and crack the fetch again. The combination was really good for being able to cut to anywhere in my deck to find exactly what I needed. Saffi also works as a pseudo protection spell for the combo and Rallier can bring back pieces that got removed already. I'll probably keep these two in the deck for a while.

How does Winding Constrictor interact with Awaken? The land gets counters and becomes a creature as part of the same passage, but it says counters first. Does Constrictor see that as putting counters on a creature and grant the extra one?

mossyfisk posted:I feel like Turbo Fog is going to be a hilariously effective budget deck this Standard. I play this deck at FNM and it's hilarious and beats pretty much everything except RW Humans (which hardly anyone even plays) You basically can win with Fevered Visions, Dynavolt Tower or Fateful Showdown. You can side in things like Thing in the Ice, Thermo-Alchemists and the like once they SB out all their creature removal when they see you have no creatures in G1 Edit: My list kind of looks something like this: Spells (24) 1 Wildest Dreams 4 Commencement of Festivities 4 Repel the Abominable 4 Encircling Fissure 3 Fateful Showdown 4 Glimmer of Genius 2 Fumigate 3 (Depending on the local meta I usually put removal in here, counters, or more filtering poo poo like Anticipate) Artifacts (8) 3 Prophetic Prism 4 Dynavolt Tower Enchantments (4) 4 Fevered Visions Lands (24) 4 Aether Hub 1 Botanical Sanctum 2 Canopy Vista 1 Cinder Glade 4 Evolving Wilds 1 Forest 1 Inspiring Vantage 2 Island 2 Lumbering Falls 2 Mountain 1 Needle Spires 1 Plains 2 Wandering Fumarole 80s James Hetfield fucked around with this message at 18:22 on Feb 6, 2017 |

New MTGO bug. If someone concedes in a multiplayer game before mulligans resolve, it bypasses the step and no one can mulligan.

The Pro Tour is also not representative of Standard. The boogeyman going in was the Saheeli Cat combo, and it turns out vehicles is a fantastic deck choice to beat that if you're expecting to run into it a lot. A lot of teams came to that same conclusion, and having such a huge number of people play different variants of it skews the numbers. It's also funny how no one's calling for the cat to be beheaded anymore, either, but that deck is only held in check if vehicles is there to fight it. Maybe give it a couple weeks and try to find ways to fight the deck instead of just always calling for whatever's on top this week to eat a ban.

Kaladesh standard feels kinda poopy no matter what's on top, in my humble not particularly considered opinion.

Ban the thing that's on top then ban the thing I don't like that had terrible results.
