I'm still working on a solid 75 but I'm toying with Mardu Stoneblade and lowkey I think Dreadhorde Arcanist is going to be a real choice target to slap a sword or Bskull on

Gimme that trample sword damage

This is a wild time for Modern and I love it

Modern is a wasteland so declaring remaking it as a non-goal and starting over has me optimistic. Not that I really play arena much anyway.

Modern is literally fine right now

Fetchless modern would be pretty tough for mana fixing though right? Like there would have to be some viable mana rocks as fetches are pretty drat versatile

That’s essentially the point of not including fetches

The 5-0s aren't a good source for this. If someone 5-0d with a similar deck with a different equipment package it wouldn't show up.

You guys being against fetches will never stop being funny. They aren't ever going away. They sell too many packs. Deal with it. :laffo:

Can you try posting without being a big ol’ fuckwad about it every once in a while?

How many sets have Shocks been in at this point? Is it 8?

Tbh I don’t trust WotC to keep the fetchlands genie in their pants so if they do Historic the way it seems it’ll eventually look close enough to Modern anyways to not really matter much

can't wait til they finally decide to make a proper temporary zone for the things like this and oblivion ring, they have to retroactively errata dozens of cards, like they did for the dumbass Planeswalker Redirection rule

The the removed from game zone has been renamed to the removed from the freaking game forever zone

On the live steam they just said they didn’t have any news today on the 2:1 Historic cards but that “the feedback has been heard, we are aware that people are not happy”

Also there is a token to put your creatures on that have gone on their adventure



That is the best possible way to resolve that memory issue and I’ll insult the heck out of the mother of anyone denigrating it

To be fair the fetches and the karakases are nowhere near essential and that's probably more than half the price

Also the primary reason to have the fetches to begin with is for a card that is just awful right now in a world dominated by W6

Emry seems playable-ish in Whirza

I think it's just not very pushed. Very much a card where you can see the levers and each one is in the "this is not meant to be actually good" position.

It’s a counterspell that draws you an evasive card, it’s not the absolute best ever but it is also a solid card. It also cycles into a 2/1 flier when counterspells are mediocre.

it's an enchantment thats bad vs aggro and gets bounced by teferi. Strongly doubt it goes anywhere. but maybe i'm misunderstanding the future meta.

Teferi is going to be taken out back and shot one of these banlist updates so that’s not a problem for long

There hasn't really been Food payoff card, right? The only thing I can think of is Shimmering Drake and the Savvy Hunter, and those aren't really good enough playoffs.

A hexproof Consecrated Sphinx isn't a good enough payoff?

there sure are some brainworms in that twitter thread. How dare wotc not keep 9/11 in mind at all times and make a card that includes the word Tower. It's not even destroying a tower or something, jesus
