C-Euro posted:Should I play UR Breach or GW Ramunap/KotR Company at FNM tonight? I know GW better than UR and I think it's a better deck right now, but I've been meaning to get some reps in with UR and might just need to take some lumps tonight to get some experience. Help me make important life decisions goons. Which deck

ShadeofBlue posted:I'd definitely try out one or two. I don't know if it replaces Ancestral Vision necessarily, though, I feel like those fill different roles. Yeah I feel that way too, thing is though, Search feels really... dirdle-y compared to just Ancestral, especially since some of your best cards are creatures. Like for me it's more of a control oriented card than a tempo plan one, but I can definitely see playing it if I want to play more of the control shell version of faeries. What are you guys' sideboards? I have 9 cards dedicated to aggro lol. 1x Collective Brutality 2x Countersquall 2x Damnation 1x Disdainful Stroke 1x Engineered Explosives 2x Gifted Aetherborn 1x Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet 2x Liliana, the Last Hope 1x Mistbind Clique 1x Nihil Spellbomb 1x Relic of Progenitus Thisuck fucked around with this message at 00:25 on Mar 10, 2018 |

Sampatrick posted:Ehhh, I don't know if replace is the right word, but I feel more comfortable playing a couple Search for Azcanta over the set of AV. It's an additional form of card advantage that synergizes quite well with passing the turn and needing to spend your mana on something. I also think AV is quite dirdle-y given that you don't get any return on investment for four turns after casting it; that's much worse than Search, which can do something pretty quickly. This is what I'm going to test for the Azcanta shell. It probably can't ever beat Burn but I think it will be stronger against the rest of the field. I think I'd feel more comfortable if I run more Snapcasters/Delve creatures with the Azcanta, I'm only running 2 Snapcasters and no real graveyard stuff, maybe I should add 1 Tasigur in the main, not sure yet though. This is my list.

I was testing them along with Conflagrate. The Conflag was much better  Have you guys seen the silly Bridge/Vengevine deck from MTGGoldfish? It's insanely fast and I'm thinking about running it for fun with 4 Leyline of the Void in the main. Kind of like what Bogles do with the 4 Leyline of Sanctity in the main. https://www.mtggoldfish.com/articles/much-abrew-bridgevine-modern It's pretty silly with 10 2/2 zambos on turn 2.

Tim Raines IRL posted:I cashed out of MTGO. Playing Xmage with the poors now. More like the smarts! On a modern note, I'm doing pretty well with UB Faeries with Jace. Went 3-1 yesterday in LGS weekly modern, only lost to my friend's affinity deck. Managed to beat out BW Tokens, BW Superfriends and a long as gently caress match vs Jund. I managed to end up 3rd place because 2 people drew I recently swapped out the 3 Secluded Glens in my deck for 2 Field of Ruin and 1 more Swamp for those pesky Blood Moons. Since I wouldn't actually be able to cast my SB cards vs most red decks if I don't have 2 black sources. I also removed a CoBru and Mistbind Clique from the SB for 2 Spellskites for bogles. drat bogles boggles the mind.

C-Euro posted:Engineered Explosives on 1 feels really good against Bogles. I got to do it twice in one game against them last week thanks to E Witness! Most Faeries worth playing are 2+ CMC, right? Yeah but you top at 2 4cmc ones. The main back bone of the deck are your Spellstutters and Bitterblossoms. Vendillion is there to basically add more beats and also some pseudo-hand disruption, and Mistbind is there for some nice 4/4 time walking and also to save yourself from your own Bitterblossom. With inclusion of Jace though, the deck runs a lot of 4 drops now. So I'm always go 25 lands, but I'm rarely casting Jace on t4, usually holding Cryptic, Mistbind or Snappy shenanigans.

Yeah that's just air trapped in when you double sleeve, i usually press down on my cards a bit with my hand or a heavy book. Also yeah the copper color is one of the originals. They're not matted and are super slick, but they have a tendency to attract dust and black crud as you use them. They're still durable as hell though.

Better yet R8 or a GTR My faeries deck is the longest deck that I kept sleeved and updated, it's been that way since Lorwyn standard. The other two decks that aren't as long but have been there since I started playing modern are my Dredge deck and D&T.

For all my modern faerie brethren, what lists are you guys running? This was my list that I took my LGS weekly modern event a few times. I'm planning to add like 2 archmage charm and force of negation in there, while cutting the 2 CMC creature removal, and 1 Jace and maybe the Mana Leak, still need to work it out. Probably swapping the 2 Counter squall to Force of Negation as well in the SB https://deckstats.net/decks/21329/922075-jace-is-a-faerie/en Thisuck fucked around with this message at 01:43 on Jun 18, 2019 |
