InterrupterJones posted:That's what I figured. With how quick it plays, DSJ seemed more like a burn deck than a zoo deck. I appreciate being able to be a bit more methodical about how I interact with dealing damage to my opponent and to myself. It plays like an attrition deck that puts an incredible clock on the opponent, more or less. It doesn't play like burn or zoo much at all, and I've played both of those as well.

Apparently there was a period when aether vial couldn't be banned from mirrodin block constructed on mtgo because they couldn't figure out how to add a card with an ash in its name to the banned list

having a master banned list so you don't have to update 50 different things makes a lot of sense to me honestly

Unless they fixed it recently you still can't search for Seance on MTGO because of the accent.

myDad posted:Blasting Station was also unsearchable for some time Okay, I can understand Seance and Æther Vial, they each have characters you can't easily do with a keyboard (I presume that you can manually put in the accented e for Seance and it'd work) What was wrong with Blasting Station?

best modo bugs #1 i couldnt watch replays for something like ten years #2 back in the day no matter what piles you set for fact or fiction the person casting it got to pick between 5 cards and 0 #3 in mirrodin standard fatespinner put its ability on the stack like you would expect it to, but your opponent just couldn't do anything and they would time out.

So I've been tinkering with a sort of hybrid between 80's Jim Hetfield and Saffron Olive's turbofog and started finding some success with the MTGO meta. It is hilarious how angry people get after 5 or 6 fogs.

So I stole the Approach wincon from SO's version and so now my wincons are 1) Fevered Visions damage, 2) Approach, 3) Land beats. I just couldn't find a time where I wanted to go shields down to drop a Dynavolt Tower, and when I did have a tower down I just never generated enough energy to make it worth it so I cut it and really focused on card draw and cycling to try and make sure I could get the cards I need to play and protect a wincon. I threw in As Foretold on a lark to see how it played, but I'm really happy with it as a one of. It only takes 2 turns before you can cast your fog for free each turn which really helps with being able keep drawing with Glimmer and Anticipate or even to play Approach as soon as possible and still be able to have a counterspell and fog available. The sideboard is meh, but it's still a work in progress. Deck: MML's TurboFog     //Main 4 Aether Hub 2 Anticipate  2 Approach of the Second Sun  1 As Foretold  2 Canopy Vista 2 Cast Out  2 Censor 2 Cinder Glade 4 Commencement of Festivities 2 Encircling Fissure 4 Evolving Wilds 4 Fevered Visions 1 Forest 2 Fumigate 4 Glimmer of Genius 4 Haze of Pollen 2 Highland Lake 1 Inspiring Vantage 2 Island 2 Lumbering Falls 2 Mountain 2 Negate 1 Plains 4 Repel the Abominable 1 Tranquil Expanse 1 Wildest Dreams  //Sideboard 2 Cast Out 1 Censor 2 Harnessed Lightning 2 Natural Obsolescence 2 Radiant Flames 2 Void Shatter 1 Wildest Dreams 2 Woodweaver's Puzzleknot  Display deck statistics

I would throw 4 Negates in your SB. Once they see you have no creatures they'll side in cards like Lost Legacy or Transgress. Also, you'll want them for control matches since most UX control decks will take out creature removal and board in heavy counters

If you're planning on rolling with yours against the new mono B or WB Zombies decks that are floating around make sure you pack a couple of extra Fumigates. Those decks can get a lot of creatures on the board quickly and I've induced a number of rage quits after a massive board wipe following a few turns out fogging.

You need one, preferably two Commit // Memory in the 75. Commit is an unconditional counterspell that even works on can't be countered and on every single relevant threat that could accidentally hit the board, and Memory gets you all your fogs back and turns on Fevered Visions. I suppose you may prefer Wildest Dreams, but the Commit side of the card is brutal, and that comes from someone who's faced it several times.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ic0nI9nbUO4 Interesting video posted up by alpha investments. Most of these fake are bad, but some aren't actually that bad, and some are just plan perfect in a sleeve to play. The scary ones are the cards from new sets with the holostamp. These aren't mass produced obviously, but it goes to show you that people are putting in the time because it makes money.

Angry Grimace posted:Their anger is probably proportional to how angry you will get when someone randomly busts out Insult // Injury. It's happened a couple of times but luckily I've been able to counter it each time. I actually got a rage quit after a guy tapped out to cast it and I Censored him. TheDemon posted:You need one, preferably two Commit // Memory in the 75. I might have to try it. I've been hesitant though because Commit is just really expensive for a counter and really just delays them casting whatever bomb they were trying to drop and it doesn't end up really delaying them that long if I have a Visions or two out.
