Captain Invictus posted:I love some of the experimental decks appearing with the new standard. Just people throwing poo poo together and trying to make something stick. Still tons of optimized stuff but way more wacky bullshit for now. Bant Party is absolutely bonkers right now

Mike N Eich posted:Whats the wincon of this deck, just beating people to death with the birds from Alrund's Epiphany when you get a bunch of turns? manland beats with Hall of Storm Giants mostly. It's SUPER loving frustrating to play against cause they just counter/bounce/nuke your threats and durdle forever.

Leperflesh posted:What, historically, has been the strategic approach to counter or deal with or beat blue decks that just counter everything you do, draw shitloads of cards, and eventually win by not letting you play? Get off to a real fast start and mudhole stomp em, put out more threats than they can answer

Chamale posted:Read Bereaved Survivor. "When another creature you control dies, transform Bereaved Survivor." By the rules, if two creatures die, there should be two triggers - one would transform Bereaved Survivor into Dauntless Avenger, and then the second would transform it back. That's clearly not how the card is meant to work, but is there any text or rule that says that's not how it works? Are we back to using intuition over rules when the card text doesn't seem to make sense? Once it transforms there's no longer a creature called bereaved survivor in play. It's dauntless avenger so if there were two triggers on the stack the second trigger would do nothing

kalvanoo posted:counterpoint: there are a good mix of very good decks right now and standard is actually good I tend to share this sentiment. Yes, there are some very strong cards that are in a wide variety of decks that you need answers to, but there are a ton of different decks that use them. It's not like one or two decks dominate and there's nothing else. It's a pretty good mix right now. Yes, getting housed by super powerful cards sucks, but I can't name a single format ever that didn't have prevalent strong cards that you would roll your eyes at and you had to pack answers for.

I just miss drafting full blocks. OG Ravnica block limited was absolutely bonkers. I know that's a high watermark but if they do it once they could do it again.

meanolmrcloud posted:There’s actually a really fun and somewhat competitive bant party deck for standard right now. It does a good job of showcasing how the mechanic could be very powerful. It also showcases how bullshit meathook massacre is. Bant Party absolutely shreds, and teabagging your opponent with linvala when they try to blood on the snow you is awesome, but you're right about Meathook. That card makes that deck cry blood

babypolis posted:how the hell did drafting work with those blocks? you had different guilds in every set right? Oh man it was so awesome. Ideally you'd end up in 3 colors which would put you in 3 guilds, but with all the mana fixing you could play a 4th. Rav you could take Golgari, Guildpact you could take Gruul, and Dissension you could take Rakdos and end up in BRG and with enough signets the mana was even pretty smooth. Absolutely my favorite limited format ever.

babypolis posted:pretty crazy that LSV makes such a meager amount of twitch considering he usually has over 2k viewers. much smallers channels make a lot more money than he does. althought now that i think about it, its probably because he streams a lot less than other people and twitch only represents a small slice of the pie for him. twitch payouts aint poo poo- it's all about the donos
