Yea, Narset was just a fun one-of anti-control finisher, that's it. The cornerstone creature of the deck is mantis rider really, that card is absurdly good in the current format.

Yea, I'd dump any Sarkhans you can while he's this high. Once the set gets opened more he'll fall. The set is just too valuable to sustain this price.

My favorite is that Sturmgeist had to be renamed in German since Storm Spirit was previously translated as Sturmgeist. Thus the birth of Unwettergeist.

Delver decks are good examples of 'tempo' decks- They rely on sticking early threats and backing them up with removal and counters. It's less about killing your opponent before they can execute their plan, and more about delaying their plan while you kill them.

The modern Ascendancy deck is 100% going to get banned though. It's actually surprisingly resilient to hate due to the wishboard, and goes off surprisingly consistently. Basically, if you're taking the time to disrupt it you aren't killing them, which gives them time to tutor up their answers. They can even get fiery justice to kill multiple canonists.

It's not like jeskai tempo is some unbeatable deck, it's just a good answer to all the green-durdle decks in the current meta. Turns out attacking with 3/3 hasted fliers is good versus ramping ground guys. Alternatively, griptiding whatever ramp target they just played and hitting them with a rabblemaster.

Yea they aren't wrong- blue is a weak color and the jeskai deck is really only playing blue for mantis rider and jeskai charm. Trying to hold up counterspells vs genesis hydra doesn't really work well either- the only decent counterspell is disdainful stroke, but that's still not a great card in a lot of matchups. Even vs green it doesn't hit courser which is very hard to fight through in a card-advantage game.

Guys Dezani was dead without the mantis rider- He had 10 life and Seth had a 3 power creature and a weaponmaster. He left himself dead to a very likely morph (His previous block that game even played around that morph being a weaponmaster) to keep a witness of the ages around.

In other plays that confused me- Goud just Master the Way'd Sorin instead of killing a 2/2 kheru bloodsucker (Reid was tapped out) and bashing with a 2/2 morph to kill Sorin. It just seems completely backwards. Especially now that we learn that goud has mindswipe in hand. I think Goud's chances to win the game go up a lot if he killed the bloodsucker there.

Yea, Jace was, in fact, that high while he was in standard. I don't think any cards from khans can reach that point though, Jace's price was as driven by eternal demand that just doesn't exist for Sorin, etc.

The red walker is going to be a new character, at least so long as the white walker is The Lithomancer which is pretty certain now. They did a say the new walker would be from an old plane so a flamekin walker is quite possible.

Yea, it was pretty clear from the sheer volume of videos showing his shady shuffling- one wouldn't have been enough but it became obvious that he was doing this constantly, even on-camera. Do the organizers of the tournaments he won have any recourse to retrieve the money he won fraudulently?

Joe Lossett aka Oarsman79 was also playing a sweet-looking high tide deck, cutting candelabras for reset and the sorcery draw-sevens for dig through time. The deck operates entirely at instant speed and is a ton of fun based on watching him play it. It's even relatively cheap for a legacy deck, coming in at ~700$, with most of the expensive cards being staples like 8 fetchlands, forces, and 2 flusterstorms. Who knows if it's actually that good but having a solid legacy deck
