Zoness posted:also i dont think ug madness played mongeese but i honestly dont remember. realistically what im saying is why isnt there a threshold deck gently caress this format. Hence, "with Mongeese"

I really hate the Eldrazi white manabase, it looks absolutely awful. They usually run 6 plains/karakas, 1 mox pearl, 1 black lotus, and 4 cavern for white sources with often 3+ creatures with nonoverlapping creature types(some combination of Thalia, Wingmare, Displacer, Stoneforge) and then they have cards like Rest in Peace or Disenchant in their sideboard and somehow they expect to cast all these spells. If I was playing that deck the first thing I would go would be cut 3 moxen/caverns/cities for 3 white sources. They can be plains, they can be Brushlands (if you're worried about colorless sources), they can be something else entirely, I don't care. I just don't understand how anyone can look at that manabase and go "hmm, yes, this is correct".

eSporks posted:Yea, that decks mana is atrocious. It's a 2 color deck with no fetch lands. This is exactly what I mean, wizards takes the firm stance than eldrazi mana was not a 6th color, and some techno babble about how the mechanic has always existed and is nothing new. Then you see the constraints it puts on play and deck building, and it absolutely is a 6th color. I mean, you're right; it is effectively a sixth color. It's possibly to build a decent 2 color manabase without fetches, though. You just might have to make some sacrifices.

That sounds awful. 3 toughness isn't great in modern and the opponent can kill it without it ever doing anything, and burn is a deck that really needs every single spell. It's also a horrible topdeck.

Toxic Deluge (or, if you want to get really laset focused, virtues ruin) seems ok if you can ever cast a 3 mana spell against them(which seems hard but idk)

I feel like with no 1 mana discard main and no lilis you're going to get torn apart by fast combo.

I don't think Burn really cares which fetches it plays as long as they can fetch mountains. Heath seems like a fairly minor loss of percent as well; not being able to fetch basic mountain is a thing, but it's not the end of the world.

I still think Burn can get away with a couple of Heaths. Obviously they're not as good as a red fetch but they still get you all your colors. Would not run any other nonred fetch, though.

Johnny Five-Jaces posted:i think it was in old RDW decks but a 3 mana card that doesn't do anything seems worse than any of your millions of lava spikes or prices or eidolons The other thing is that ancient RDW deck was a fundamentally different deck that was not really in a hurry to win and more wanted to deal like 3 damage per turn until you were at 8 and only burn you out then, or actually play as the control deck in some creature matchups. Scroll fundamentally doesn't fit in the way that current burn decks play.

I haven't played bloomless titan but amulet bloom could never beat a moon unless you drew your seal or landed a Titan before moon came down, so assuming the mana base is basically the same it's like, yeah, if they have it you look stupid, but if they have it you've 99% lost anyway

Have you lost multiple Shadows to a single Swords yet? Am I overestimating the seriousness of that problem?

L0cke17 posted:Delver is a Wizard, and Wizards arent Creatures, theyre just spells that leave bodies. Other notable examples include Snapcaster Mage and vendilion clique. Thalia is just a thorn that costs white mana, totally not a creature. Mentor is a 3 mana moat that produces attackers, definitely not a creature at all. And Deathrite is a 1-mana planeswalker. I see no creatures there. ok fair enough but what about these      this is a fun game
