I just got destroyed by a hover guard sweepers in momir vig. It had no set symbol. WotC really just added that for momir, didn’t they? Edit: oh they added a lot of stuff. That’s actually cool. ShadeofBlue fucked around with this message at 20:21 on Sep 21, 2019 |

Open deck lists at the time of the event are reasonable and result in far fewer non-games due to mulligan decisions in game 1. Good point, rogue decks have never performed well and come out of nowhere

Ate My Balls Redux posted:Good point, rogue decks have never performed well and come out of nowhere The question is did they only do well because people didn't know their deck list, or because they were good, people didn't have experience playing against them or sideboard hate.

most rogue decks that did well historically were not actually good and just ran hot through the tournament. the decks that were actually good quickly stopped being rogue decks for obvious reasons.

A Moose posted:I need some math done. What's the correct number of lands for a rakdos aggro deck that has 10 1-drops, 12 2-drops, and 12-3 drops? Right now I'm at 21, and I think that only works for Bo1 where the game feeds you free lands. Right now my deck tops out at giving me 3 lands per game, unless I start with 3 lands in my opener, which means I'll draw 12. is there a right way to do this? Also the deck has 2 Bontu and 2 Spawn of Mayhem. and roughly a 50/50 split of black and red which means I'm always color screwed unless my 2 lands in my opening hand are 2 different types. Posting a full decklist would let us give better advice about your colors and mana needs, though my first question is why you would put Priest of Forgotten Gods in a self-described aggro deck to begin with.

Notable angle shooter Bob Huang got DQed at GP Atlanta for marked cards. https://twitter.com/Griselpuff/status/1175551933588938758?s=20 Yep, definitely marked. lol at the story "oh i forgot that my two friends sleeved my deck for me and one sleeved lands one sleeved spells from two different packages of dragon shields" Do dragon shields come in packs of 50 now?

Hellsau posted:Notable angle shooter Bob Huang got DQed at GP Atlanta for marked cards. They do sell them in packs of 50, I've never heard of anyone buying them though, and I think I've only seen them in classic, not matte. Could be wrong, but Dragon Shield's website is asking me for a WordPress password right now (lol) so I have no idea. It's also true that two different packs of Dragon Shield matte blacks will have noticeable differences.

I dunno, I've got 2 decks and a cube in Dragon Shields and I've never seen variation like what he's describing. I've never heard of Huang being more angle shooty than your typical tournament grinder either. This is a weird DQ.

"one of my friends did the lands and the other did the spells" is a really convenient/suspect explanation though, like why would you divide the labour that way? Wouldn't you just grab half each?

His lands were sleeved noticeably different from his spells. He admits this. That's a DQ. It isn't a single marked card, it isn't some random cards with scuffs. It's systematic markings that provide a major gameplay advantage.

He could have had his deck sorted pre-tournament when sleeving. Also I'm not defending him but I have 100% had 2 batches of dragon shield black mattes have a different finish on them and not noticed until in-game at a weekly modern night. Make sure all your cards are sleeved from sleeves out of one box.

I have about 1200 modern cards sleeved in the same dragon shield classics and there is no visible difference in any of them. And I've bought them over 3 years or more.

Even if you do believe him, it's still a fully deserved DQ. If a series of wacky hijinks resulted in every land in my deck being smeared in marmalade, I still have a deck with marked cards.
