I play infect in paper legacy. I have a great community near me when there isn't a horrible pandemic. I like Infect because I feel like it gives you a little bit of everything in the Legacy experience. You get the cantrips cartel for consistency, FoW so you don't just autolose to combo, you can play the combo game yourself but in a fairer way so it never feels like your opponent just can't do anything, and you get to alternate between playing aggro/tempo/control game plan based on the matchup and your draw.

Mezzanon posted:I also play legacy infect. I’ve been testing a white splash for t3feri in the main and geist in the side as well. I do white sometimes for swords and rest in peace, depending on how my meta is shaping. There is a lot of lands/loan in my area though, so staying ug for a safer manabase can be worth it.

Eternal Weekend looks like it was a big success. The third legacy event even hit it's cap of 672 players. The top 8s look pretty diverse too from what people have been putting together.

Legacy really needs some bans. I wish they would just ban Oko, then evaluate for 2 weeks to see if anything else needs a ban. At this point I'd be happy to see Oko, uro, and DHA all banned.

Probably wouldn't change much. I've seen a deck run a shockland as a fifth dual land, but I don't think most decks would. It would be a buff to field of the dead decks that sometimes run a few shocks to hit the 7th unique land. That said printing identical lands violates the RL anyway, so there is no advantage in doing that vs just reprinting them. The other option that gets floated sometimes is just to print fetchable fast lands.

UR delver is too strong and they will need to ban something out of blue xerox at some point, though I don't think they will ever be willing to touch brainstorm. Pauper is in a decent place right now for something that kind of feels like legacy where value matters. UB faeries is a fun deck. I also got interested in premodern recently for something that feels nostalgic but is also a decent format on its own. The ban list helps give the format its own distinct feeling. The lack of any fetchable duals also means mana bases are usually real cheap. I'm putting together UG madness, dead guy ale, sligh, and The Rock for a battle box for casual magic.

Mezzanon posted:I miss playing legacy infect, but love playing cycling storm in pauper because tireless tribe is no longer a deck. Infects not too badly positioned right now. It's not great but people are getting kind of durdly and simic infect is having some success with people going up to 3 berserk and 3 scale ups.

Andrea Menguicci also makes some good stuff https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwIFsLCPrc1NGoNS0OGn0mw he doesn't have his own channel but is part of Channel FireBall.

It's ok against DnT I guess but it's only going to get the EtB and plague engineer is scarier. It's going to be really strong against infect but once again PE is even better. It's a strong card I just don't know if it's enough to shore up blacks many weaknesses In Legacy.
