Sampatrick posted:Eldrazi already gets to play the best cantrip in the format, they don't really need another card selection spell. She's card advantage that dodges Wrath. I don't think she works great in Eldrazi with how expensive most of the creatures are but I think that kind of deck is on the right track.

ThePeavstenator posted:Hey all, so I started making that match-up matrix I mentioned a few pages ago. Here's the link. Any help or opinions would be much appreciated, I left comments on if you want to leave notes instead of making posts. I started adding a few numbers but some probably have to be revised, it's mostly based on guesswork/personal experience. Can you throw in Bant Company if possible?

black potus posted:I talked to some TCG (not magic) designers about cycling being evergreen and their argument against was basically there's an implicit cost to putting words on cards and that cost outweighed the value for most players because most players don't want to cycle their cool card and so don't look at it as upside. I don't know that I buy this because part of that cost seems to be that it's not evergreen, and I don't know why you couldn't just stick it on various narrow answers, but there you go. I actually do agree with this point because the idea of a card being cool because you have the option of throwing it away if you don't need it is a bit of a silly concept. It also tends to result in the non-cycling mode of the card being weakened so the card ends up less exciting than it might've been developed without cycling. On the other hand gently caress it it makes the game so much better TheKingofSprings fucked around with this message at 00:12 on May 5, 2017 |

Sickening, you were asking about Bant Company and the matchup vs Death's Shadow a little while back. After playing some games and doing some more research I can say pretty confidently that Death's Shadow is one of the reasons the deck is doing so well right now. Bant Company is super good against it, we have blockers for weeks and replacing most of their Bolts with Tarfires means we have enormous game against their removal suite. Post board we bring in Reflector Mage and Finks and the matchup just gets worse for them. As long as Death's Shadow is good and Bolt is "bad" the deck is a really good option right now.

Bulky Bartokomous posted:I did tweak the deck so I could play legacy and that helps. I just hate that I can't have my Sol Ring and Balance You should go look up comparable vintage decks so you can see the ones that still work more along the lines of what you want. StP is still a good card, Ray of Command isn't outside of draft in the formats in which its legal because it costs 4.
