Also interested. There certainly seem to be plenty of options.

After preliminary testing I can confirm that this is some extremely good poo poo. The mix of extremely absurd cards and strategies with the extremely specific lack of certain powerful cards is really really amazing.

odiv posted:I'll start hanging around on IRC tonight. I'm only free after about 9pm Mountain Wed-Fri though, so that's a bit rough if you're on the East coast. I'm on the West Coast, so it's PST for me, we should be all good.

odiv posted:I think I saw you around 7pm-ish Wednesday, but by the time I checked back in around 9, you weren't there. Hung out yesterday too and didn't see you in there. Probably won't be able to play until late tonight, but I'll try to check in, anyway. I've been hit by a string of bad weather, so my power was out for a while and my internet connection was very poor after. I'm also away on family business tonight, but should be able to do Sunday evening if that works for you?

Olothreutes posted:That sounds sort of like my deck, but I'm playing W/U robots because I think blue is stronger than red. And by stronger I mean "lets me play TNN." I still mostly fold to vandalblast. I had a RUG deck built around cascade + TNN but there were just a bunch of bits of it that rubbed me the wrong way. On the whole it was probably better than the current deck I'm playing, but a little less fun. True Name was an absolute beast though in all my test games. The card seems completely absurd in this format. edit: I'm on pacific time, also available most evenings. We've been having stormy weather lately and had a few power outages, but hopefully the worst of it is over. Defeatist Elitist fucked around with this message at 01:58 on Dec 8, 2015 |

Ramos posted:Cool, I was trying to figure out how to do golgari reanimator but couldn't figure out a good build and ended up on Grixis instead. I really like this deck, it has a lot of early game and grind potential. Manabase feels really sketchy, and there are a few other things I'm still not sure on, but the option to just win with early beaters, or to hard cast instead of reanimate felt worth giving up some of the core engine efficiency.

Olothreutes posted:I beat Defeatist Elitist 2-1 in a harrowing series of games, rife with client issues. That was some of the best magic I've played. I was sweating it basically every turn. Crazy crazy games on both ends. Highlights include flipping dread return and bane of progress with the same wayfinder, and hardcasting soooo many things. Last game involved a turn 2 Lodestone Golem, a magister of worth killing two True Name nemesises at once in the nick of time, and some of the clutchest paths, and swords you can imagine.

Chamale posted:Someone polled a bunch of pros what the best first pick for a rotisserie draft of all of Magic would be. Sol Ring was first, followed by Black Lotus and Ancestral Recall. A couple of the early decks I threw together in this format were general goodstuff decks that were almost completely full of cheap, multicolor value creatures (1 or fewer generic mana in the casting cost), and it was still right to just run 4x sol ring (admittedly the signets make that a much more supportable thing).

Sigma-X posted:I can't loving read. We're still waiting on the steve/elyv game though, right? Hurry it up guys or I'm letting Steve take the win because he posted last. tbh the extra 'u's thing is a sort of identity crisis, because on one hand getting rid of them just makes so much sense and is one of america's greatest contributions to the world, but on the other hand everybody around me uses them like some weird patriotic gesture so I kind of get used to it and start inserting them automatically.

IBMS, I'll be available some mix of evenings and days for the next week or so. I have an irregular work schedule, but am also expecting to do a bit of travelling to meet with someone. I'll try to be on IRC whenever I'm available.

Well, my computer is hosed right now, if all goes well it will be fixed before long, but if we run up to the deadline before then, just have me concede to IBMS.

Well by some incredible feat of necromancy I've restored my computer to mostly working condition. If you're doing nothing at all on Christmas Eve, IBMS, I'll try to be in IRC, but don't sweat it (obviously).
