Unsurprsingly, Dig Through Time was an all star every time I saw it cast.

Lets Pickle posted:I'm glad to see Narset win a tournament. The card seems to get underestimated because it's a 3-power creature for 6, but she really does do something fundamentally broken. She also seems to be in a good place right now since Crackling Doom and End Hostilities are about the only things that kill her. Anger of the Gods, also.

jassi007 posted:This. I'm sure that nobody consider a tempo deck that was 3 colors that centered on a 3 drop. Now that I look at it, its like slow UR delver, but since most other decks are durdly too, it works out. It's not like mono colored aggro was absent.

Are there any chances of ever seeing Counterspell back in standard?

I'd just like to once experience how it warps the game in a standard environment, but I suppose it's effect on modern would be unacceptable.

Not all fantastic cards are fantastic in all situations. Dig let's you pick what you need at the time.

I'm sure it looks appropriately fabulous. We can probably expect delve and the other clan mechanics in Fate Reforged and the 3rd set, right?

I'm still holding out for a 5 mana delve counterspell.

I find it hilarious that Pact of Negation would actually be a mana generator in this deck, all the value etc.

a dozen swans posted:they better not ban glittering wish, the 5c Glittering Paruns deck is hilarious (and bad) Why would they ban wish instead of ascendency? I mean, is that actually a likely outcome?

What would the standard version of the ascendency deck use for cantriping? Or would it mostly rely on the looting ability plus treasure cruise to not run out of fuel?

Devor posted:Tom Ross was on camera, board was mostly gummed up, he was slightly on his back foot. That's a little worse than accidentally playing less cards in your deck. I mean, that couldn't have been accidental right? e:Or did he not realize his deck list didn't include a card he was actually playing?

Entropic posted:I think we're really feeling the lack of Doom Blade / Ultimate Price right now. If you want unconditional removal it costs 3 color-intensive mana now, and that's a huge difference from 1B. That and Supreme Verdict obviously. Bumping up how much 1-for-1 removal and board wipes cost by 1 mana makes a ton of difference to how the first 5 turns plays out in any given matchup. It's no Doom Blade but there is Murderous Cut.

Does Disdainful Stroke counter an X spell (like Villainous Wealth) when the casting cost is greater than 4?

I understand all that's changed is the templating, but I don't understand how the initial version was functionally equivalent to the new one. Can someone explain?

I Love You! posted:Super excited about this weird 2color draft, especially after streaming the draft portion and the only comment made was "bad drafting man..." and then the guy left. I actually caught one of your drafts a couple of days ago, w/o knowing it was a goon. It was the only stream w/o music or a face cam, and I enjoyed your commentary. (Why keep the the goofy modo sound effects on?)

qbert posted:Basically the only way Dezani's deck loses is to mana screw. The block was a massive mistake. There was no reason to risk it w/ Manfield playing Jeskai and having the mana to flip the Weaponsmaster.

Matignon's Jeskai Student taking down the Riverwheel Aerialists was probably my favorite play of the event so far.
