I lost one match cos i made assumptions about the WB saccing uncommon that were wildly untrue and did a really stupid attack to end a pretty decent game. That one was all on me :smith:

Man, I every single draft I've done has gone 1-3. Most of the time one of those loses is against a genuinely good deck, the other two each time will be to me spending 4 turns drawing land when I need any other card in my deck

Crafted four sheoldreds, i figure even if mono black falls out of meta soon it'll be a good enough card for the next teo years to not regret crafting it

Try Vesuvan Duplimancy + Obscura Interceptor. The new Interceptor bounces whichever spell you've played back to your hand while digging through your deck, plus it has a better statline.

You get an army of 3/1s and 4/2s with lifelink, and if the opponent tries anything, you can burn a 1-mana cheap spell to bounce their stuff too. And once all those connives get to the second Duplimancy, it's pretty much a hard lock.

vv good point, run both

I've been curious for a while, how does duplomancy combo with Jin Gitaxis?

The timmy deck is real fun. Had some good times getting the 'draw for each dinosaur' in my opening hand. Had a game where an oppo sac'd their domri to fight my creature, but in saccing the domri lost 1 power so didnt finish it off. One where my oppo did a smug g1 'good game' when i had umalog, regisaur alpha and goring ceratops in my opening hand. Another where an opponent didnt realise their creature was stolen and bounced it accidentally. Fun times

Want peoples thoughts on what to include/cut for this one, I'm excited to have gotten Oko (now to have him milled out under me every game)

I'm cutting the owls because I'm to neutral on theblue/green split, I've mostly been following the limited level ups advice and going heavily monocolour but this deck fell into place as a two colour deck as soon as I got oko P1P1.

is the set after this gonna be "The Dark, Again"? i bet that's where this is going.

hopefuly we get a whole set based on Phyrexia, since Phyrexia is All Colors now

The next set is 'phyrexia - all will be one'

I was getting salty about the shuffler then realised I'd accidentally made a 60 card, 17 land deck. Sorry wizards, that was on me

edit: Yes, now the deck actually works. soldiers aggro is good

Just had a game of gladiator where in 15 draws I drew 2 non land cards, if i'm hitting 0.008% odds I think the shuffler is telling its time to play something else for a bit

In my experience, your opponents deck is really good.

Incubate seems pretty good,the enchantment cycle that buff phyrexians seems pretty good. Battles should be rated only on the front. The extra legends means things can see a bit crazier than normal.

I also saw one person who had got two boros hoplites out and it seems to me like thats a potentially strong deck if you can get it going

Sometimes, if you're lucky, people will attack into incubate tokens and you can get some free blocks

Could the thread recommend youtubers that play (historic) brawl at least occasionally with fun decks? I'm lazy and I like to copy decks and have fun with them. I've only really followed LegendVD so far.
