40 lbs to freedom posted:constructed wise doesnt seem like a very control friendly set or did i miss anything obvious? blue seems kind of bad in general and creatures are really strong. no real u/w finisher either. I could see some kind of base UB domain control take shape with the -x/-x sweeper and the sphinx that fact or fictions. Depends on how good those are with only powered up to 3 out of 5 that the triomes provide.

I've only faced (lost to) Sheoldred in limited and brawl so far, but it seems like very good and I think I may craft some.

Getting that third win when you're 2-2 is so relieving.

Corbeau posted:This format feels tough. Got at least a 5-3 this afternoon, but last night a group of friends and I went a combined 2-9 (!) streaming to each other and discussing picks. There are a lot of individually powerful cards in the set, but there are going to be a ton of synergy decks out there that also have powerful individual cards. Even decks that seemed decent by prior format standards got obliterated. The only decks I've had any success with so far are UBx control decks absolutely loaded with removal and card draw. I agree with this and have had little to no success with aggressive decks. Unless you can capitalize on a really slow start, the other decks can get their defense up and start doing way more powerful stuff. All the black and/or white token decks I try need to get just the right mix of token makers and payoff to work and are underwhelming otherwise. Green based domain, with usually blue or red as the secondary color has been the best for me so far.

Legit Businessman posted:Actually the discount only applies when the spell is on the stack. At all times the mv is 8. This is why you can still disdainful stroke it when it is played for WW. Is this how all cost reductions work, like the common cycle in dom united? arena displays the reduced cost when it is in your hand, but would I be able to take a reduced cost card with inquisition of kozilek?

Node posted:Is it still too early in DMU's cycle to commit to spending wildcards for a deck, or is it safe to spend some of them for some cards? The deck I'm thinking of is pretty much the mono black deck a lot of people have with Sheoldred, Invoke Despair, Meathook, etc. I think it should stay a good deck. I've been winning a lot with the BR version, and the esper one is good as well. if you start with mono black you can expand to one of the multicolor versions later on. Evolved sleeper is the only card that is run exclusively in the mono black version, so maybe save those wild cards for dual lands if you think you'll want to switch it up.

Captain Invictus posted:is there a burn spell in standard right now good enough to deal with sheoldred? because while meathook was a problem for aggro decks, sheoldred is a big fat brick wall for monored aggro. Rending Flame gets you 5 damage at instant speed for 2R. It was in a gruul aggro list I found online and I'm sure is for Sheoldred

I like limitedgrades.com because it is easy to filter out rares and mythics and is already based to GIHWR, so you don't have to reorganize like 17lands. For both it is helpful to switch to your main color pair once you've settled on one, certain cards do a lot better or worse depending on what archetype you're going for.

There are a decent number of Wx decks running Thalia and either no non-creature or just a few wandering emperors.

Bardiche has done some alright work for me, and putting it on a duelist would be nice. I always end up cutting onslaught because I'm afraid of it being dead with none or just a few creatures.

It is also called 'elder dragon Highlander', so you may know that name. But you pick a legend as your commander and build your deck in their colors and always are able to access them.

It feels like maybe only half the time, and I feel like I don't mulligan enough. I'll keep good looking two lander and draw no land or a four landers and draw all lands. Don't have tracking cause I'm on my phone, wonder what good players keep rate are.

Fyi incase it comes up for anyone else: when playing in cube the game did not give me priority to kill a Sheoldred with an instant before my draw step (at 2 life). Did get a refund, but feel like I could have pulled the game back if I had gone to full control.
