but im maybe regretting it now

idk

but holy i suck at drafting

[zinc shard]

idk why i jumped straight into Sealed, they give you so much lol

[steady onyx]

yeah im really unhappy with this draft

[glad peak]

Curve is good at least

[steady onyx]

idk

idk what last cut here is

maybe bumi bash

yeah

[glad peak]

The amount of people I’ve seen whose curve is a wall of 4 drops is insane

[steady onyx]

i had like 0 one drops

untill just the cadets kept passing

[glad peak]

Tbh I don’t really care for 1 drops as much as inn constructed

[steady onyx]

idk

i feel one drops are really strong in limited personally but idk

[glad peak]

It usually depends but they’re usually well below the power of most 2 drops that if I have a generic bear or most 1 drops I’d take a bear

[steady onyx]

[subtle sierra]

Was like a Temur lessons/earthbending deck but just didn’t have the gas or wincon (at least packed a decent curve

[steady onyx]

FUCKCNKASNDKSANDKSAND

i forgot what waterbend did

i m so bad at this game

[glad peak]

Thought monastery mentor was hard to beat? Well here’s monastery mentor but better

[sudden lava]

What are some upgrades I should get for Mardu Surge, cuz yeah Wan Shi Tong's value be raising by the day (I am going sell the birb)

[steady onyx]

is there instant speed removal

in the set

2 mana white black

i forget..

i guess they didnt have it

[sudden lava]

waterbend is convoke/improvise

but for abilities/additional costs

[steady onyx]

yeah I get that

i just forgot while playing

:p

[sudden lava]

ah ok

was thinking firebender ascension just cuz the precon has multiple "when this attacks" triggers

and shocking sharpshooter & how to start a riot to take advantage of the token generation

[golden plover]

Oh we were all blindsided by "That's Rough Buddy". There's an even more BM emote in the pack. You can spam "Yip yip" in place of "Your Go"

[fallow citrus]

oh my god everyone is complaining about the mh secret lair and when I look at it I totally get it

[golden plover]

Yip yip makes a sound and there's no way they don't remove it lol

[hidden ermine]

[storm elbow]

My suggestionnfor the next sol ring:

[twilit canyon]

valstrax gets to aura farm in a magic card ig

dont think about it too hard, the art is cool

[storm elbow]

Close to the sun, vaguely circular

This is a sol ring

[hidden ermine]

At this point we probably have enough Sol Ring arts for a Sol Ring alignment chart

[sleek ferry]

Alright, this is one of those scenarios where every card we assumed would be good is actually good lol

I’m making some heavy changes to this deck because this current build is bad, but it is def not because of Appa or Aang

[twilit canyon]

yeah

[subtle sierra]

they want me to come back to beza

lmao

[storm elbow]

Is avatar out on arena?

[sudden lava]

sun behind the head

[storm elbow]

I might hop on draft

[subtle sierra]

ye it's out

[twilit canyon]

it is yeah

the draft for this set is pretty fun

[subtle sierra]

i've been loopin

[twilit canyon]

at least irl

[sleek ferry]

The prerelease was so fun

like people complain that green felt overbearing, but I never felt as if I lost because of card quality

[storm elbow]

neat

[subtle sierra]

my opponents did :)

have 2 bears

[sleek ferry]

Well yeah that’s different, opening 2 bear kings is crazy

LESSON STORM for Bo1 Standard!

I had fun with this deck during Arena Early Access. Iroh, Grand Lotus gives all of your Lessons flashback 1 - so with an Artist Talent at level 2, they're all free!! And the Talent looting feeds you more lessons to your graveyard to storm off.

Flashback (You may cast this card from your graveyard for its flashback cost. Then exile it.)

[subtle sierra]

like i get that this gets to 20+ but realistically thinking this won't be blocked or die is lol

you have to have:
7 mana
enough forests for it to matter
they have no blockers, which i'll grant cause you'll flashback the removal
have artist's talent ready

idk

[golden plover]

They could at least run [[Secret Tunnel]] if they're trying to be cute

[subtle sierra]

if you wanna combo go superior at t4 and win

[golden plover]

And probably run the AI art toph?

She does something about lessons, yeah?

[subtle sierra]

nah the blocker thing is fine prob cause you flashback tons of removal

[sudden lava]

was it confirmed to be AI?

[subtle sierra]

no

the artist uses ai but also draws real stuff

octo protects the land but again, you have to have 7 open mana and iroh has to land and you have to have artist's ready

that's a lot

[golden plover]

Artist does ai art training and shit on her own, it's possible it's not but even commissioning her at all feels too much so I dunno

There's a chance it's not AI but I'd need to see one in person to tell

[subtle sierra]

i will give the list credit in that it's 8 non land rares so it's budget

[golden plover]

The mountains feel too likely based on artifacts and stuff, but again, hard to tell without looking at it in person

[tardy echo]

Considering the past 3 times this has happened

I’m gonna go with not ai until proven otherwise

[subtle sierra]

same

[golden plover]

I would agree, but the artist actively trains ai for art

So as far as I'm concerned, even hiring her was too much

[tardy echo]

Shrug

If she drew it herself idgaf I cannot lie

[golden plover]

It might not be ai, but it's hard to tell

[hidden ermine]

Ill be honest this doesnt even seem like AI to me?

[tardy echo]

It looks pretty real to me

[hidden ermine]

Like if I didnt know the artist had done AI stuff in the past

The idea of it being AI wouldnt have even crossed my mind tbqh

[subtle sierra]

it looks weird to me so it crossed mine

[fallow citrus]

while I am against AI

[subtle sierra]

but at this point i define any weird art as potentially ai

[fallow citrus]

this is a very online way of thinking where everything is AI until there is definitive proof

[subtle sierra]

i just try not to witchhunt without proof

[tardy echo]

Yeah I feel like ppl are actively looking for reasons to shit on wotc

Idk

[twilit canyon]

i hate wotc but there are actual reasons

[tardy echo]

I assure you it’s not necessary to try to find ai art in every set to find something wrong with wotc

Yeah

[glad peak]

While wotc deserves to be shit on, this art is pretty good regardless ngl

[tardy echo]

Surely this could just play wan shi tong to hit your opponent to death

Or idk literally any scaling threat

[glad peak]

Actually I can’t remember [[wan shi tong]]

Wait, slickshot’s not banned?

Huh

Guess you found your win con for this deck

[tardy echo]

Life gain isn’t in blue smile

But yeah surely this deck just plays slickshot/firebending student/whatever prowess guy wins

[glad peak]

Just foretell slickshot then on combo turn just slam him and storm off

If they have removal, you’d have lost anyways because iroh would’ve died

[tardy echo]

Play bloomburrow ral so u beat removal gg

[twilit canyon]

true!

[glad peak]

Only in the side

[twilit canyon]

showoff + ral

[glad peak]

Because you still lose if they remove iroh

[tardy echo]

I mean half j half serious but like u draw ur entire deck hypothetically so

Ral kind of just wins

And then also means you’re playing storm for real

Lightning bolt storm count 32…

[glad peak]

True but showoff is free on the combo turn

[tardy echo]

Slickshot is good but ral is hype

[twilit canyon]

overkill asf

[tardy echo]

gg

[glad peak]

Do you know what’s even more hype?

[tardy echo]

You’re overkill asf

[twilit canyon]

u only need storm count 7 to kill with the average bolt

[glad peak]

Stormsplitter

[tardy echo]

But maybe I had to draw 32 times with artists talent to find bolt

[twilit canyon]

gross

but ig it happens

[tardy echo]

How many bolts are even in standard rn

Shock and burst?

[twilit canyon]

those are shocks

i actually dont think theres a single 3 damage to any creature

or pwer

ik boltwave exists

oh actually plasma bolt is a thing

thats sorcery but its 2 and then void 3

The issue is that this deck feels amazing when I draw badgercub or even just multiple dorks

[twilit canyon]

and when u dont its like

not a deck

[tardy echo]

But there is not a high enough density to consistently feel good

Yeah

[twilit canyon]

classic ramp

[sudden lava]

both are yep

I had a turn 3 ugin

and then I had a game where I didn’t board a single guy until t5

and then also a turn 10 ugin

[tardy echo]

(I won both)

[twilit canyon]

wao

[sleek ferry]

Yeah badgermole is fine in standard, nothing more, nothing less

This spell costs less to cast if your life total is 5 or less.
Exile target creature or planeswalker. Search its controller's graveyard, hand, and library for any number of cards with the same name as that permanent and exile them. That player shuffles, then draws a card for each card exiled from their hand this way.

is this real

even then

[steady onyx]

i have like

16 rares

11 mythics

It also doesn’t hit forests on board

do you have a deck/archetype you'd like to play?

like immediately?

hm ok

[sudden lava]

the way I misread that as "it doesnt hit ferrets on board"

I wish green had better interaction on the board that wasn’t fight spells

[steady onyx]

back to tft @sleek ferry come with me, new set is based

[sleek ferry]

I would wait yeah. You’re not the deckbuilding type Areo, you’re more of a netdecker

[steady onyx]

this is why we play simic

[steady onyx]

100% :)

[sleek ferry]

Which there’s nothing wrong with that

[steady onyx]

i fucking suck at building decks

just give me a list lol

[twilit canyon]

they gave us beast within once and magic players couldnt behave

I am playing simic

But blue removal is. Flawed

the 2 worst colors for on-board interaction!?

[tardy echo]

Without something to pair with

[steady onyx]

i mean u got like flood maw

And then a turn later I’m losing to sheltered by ghosts again

[steady onyx]

ur on golgari?

my friends playing golgari midrange

he rly likes it

[twilit canyon]

no im not playing anything rn

i cant

[tardy echo]

I’m wondering if there’s a diff color pairing I can do for ramp

arena servers cant connect to the lab im in and i have other things i need to do after work until i get back home

[twilit canyon]

its actually clams

[tardy echo]

Clam sex…

[twilit canyon]

no not

clam sex

but i am working with clams

[tardy echo]

Clapping those shells so hard they’re cracking the fault lines

I knew it

[twilit canyon]

this is why africa is getting a new ocean btw

[tardy echo]

???

[twilit canyon]

dwai

[tardy echo]

I’m thinking maybe

[twilit canyon]

it wont be for another couple million years

[tardy echo]

What if I do golgari instead of simic

Is that cope

[steady onyx]

no

[tardy echo]

Blue cards make it so much easier to find badgermole

[steady onyx]

wait what blue cards?

[twilit canyon]

the answer is actually simple

play sultai

[tardy echo]

Once llorwyn comes out this becomes so much easier

Holy true

[steady onyx]

sultai reanimator

[tardy echo]

At that point what if I play red less

[twilit canyon]

ur not wrong

[tardy echo]

And then just plays 5c with energy bending

[twilit canyon]

but that will need llorwyn tbh

[tardy echo]

gg

[steady onyx]

cause we get rest of good lands with lorwen right?

[tardy echo]

Llorwyn also lets u literally just play mono green

Bc of the world champ card

[twilit canyon]

hmmm

but thats kinda boring

[tardy echo]

Yeah but probably the most effective

[steady onyx]

wait cake can u send me ur list tho

im curious what ur ramping into

[tardy echo]

Pending on if they give any more green stuff

[steady onyx]

ive always wanted to play ramp

[tardy echo]

Ugin

Sire

Kyoshi

[steady onyx]

my first standard deck was simic ramp into like koma

in strixhaven?

[tardy echo]

Technically wan shi tong but shrug

[steady onyx]

what format was that

with like the quandax cards

[tardy echo]

That’s like a fake ramp thing

[twilit canyon]

a bad deck, and a frustrating format

[tardy echo]

I did cast wan shi tong draw 6 earlier today though

[twilit canyon]

fires of invention was the meta

and it was really dull overall

[steady onyx]

oh idk, i was like rly young

and i liked simic

and koma

so i found a list that played all that shit

[twilit canyon]

cant believe u turned out to be a simic player like actually

[steady onyx]

god i would play ramp irl if like ugin wasnt 2 bajillion dollars, and sire wasnt 2 bajillion

[twilit canyon]

out of all the bs u've ever been up to, that may be the worst below playing league

[tardy echo]

Me or areo

Oh areo

[twilit canyon]

areo

[steady onyx]

idk man, i dont rly have a favorite color tbf, i like all of them

[tardy echo]

I just wish sultai would come back to standard

[steady onyx]

i should just play 5c

[tardy echo]

Or green in general

[steady onyx]

i ngl only picked up simic midrange because i pulled like the expensive cards from my eoe prerelease

[tardy echo]

lol

[steady onyx]

[tardy echo]

Shits been dire

[sleek ferry]

Wan shi tong is actually a very good card vs the tempo bounce version of Azorius

Stay woke

[subtle sierra]

Superior reanimator is literally sultai no?

[tardy echo]

Hopefully avatar marks the start of new green

[twilit canyon]

yeah

[steady onyx]

but thats reanimator

[tardy echo]

Not my sultai

[twilit canyon]

tho its kind of just ok

sultai dragons should have caught on im kind of sad it didnt

[sleek ferry]

The issue with superior is you literally see it coming from a mile away

[twilit canyon]

the dragons in the colors are all really nice they just fail to have enough

[steady onyx]

but its kinda like

u either have the out or you dont

[tardy echo]

Without vivi it’s a lot easier to make room for hate

[steady onyx]

i feel like theres v little gameplay

against reanimator

but idk

maybe im wrong

[tardy echo]

But also it lost to some of the same stuff as vivi shrug

[sleek ferry]

You should def have the out post side

[subtle sierra]

You actually mained gy hate, now you don't

So you win g1 almost guaranteed

[steady onyx]

what like the tarkir dragons?

and u run shit like the storms?

[twilit canyon]

yeah but games 2 and 3 conversely become a nightmare

[subtle sierra]

True

[tardy echo]

Most played deck plays like 3 different hand hate cards too

[twilit canyon]

yup

[tardy echo]

And can kill you fast enough

sounds fun

god

i kinda wanna pick up a new standard deck by like trading mine in

but thatsd a STUPID idea

format fucking bangs so hard

[twilit canyon]

legacy lite?

so

[tardy echo]

Thinking abt it maybe temur is the wave

[twilit canyon]

again, timeless?

[steady onyx]

maybe

[twilit canyon]

red for what

[tardy echo]

Removal

[steady onyx]

lets see what meta is

[tardy echo]

Good lessons so I can play accumulate

[steady onyx]

[twilit canyon]

dont go on goldfish for timeless

• the meta just shifted today

cus we got force of negation

dark depths

entomb

mystical tutor

[steady onyx]

wait bro bro bro bro

[tardy echo]

Did arena really not have depths

That’s crazy

[twilit canyon]

enlightened tutor

and worldly tutor

[steady onyx]

why does this list hvae like 20 mh cards in it

😭

[twilit canyon]

because we have mh3 on arena

[tardy echo]

MH cards are good I fear

[twilit canyon]

nadu is near full power in timeless rn

its only missing the cephalid breakfast combo

[steady onyx]

but isnt legacy like kinda expensive

[twilit canyon]

timeless on arena is free

[steady onyx]

i mean yeah

but a lot of wildcards

[twilit canyon]

im gonna get back friday and im gonna strip mine ppl with force of negation back up with my psychic frog in play

[tardy echo]

Misty can I bounce a few deck ideas off u tomorrow for this

[twilit canyon]

yeah

[tardy echo]

I would now but I’m at work

[twilit canyon]

i cant play, but i can still brew

[steady onyx]

is oops in timeless?

[twilit canyon]

of course

[steady onyx]

lol

[twilit canyon]

you can dark rit into oops even

[tardy echo]

Oops is legacy goated

[twilit canyon]

you have both belcher and spy

[steady onyx]

wait so is timeless basically just legacy?

[twilit canyon]

timeless is actually stronger than legacy rn and lowkey its more fun

[steady onyx]

is pitch black a real dekc?

with like soul spike

[twilit canyon]

if legacy had strip mine, tutors, channel, and a bunch of other bs thats usually banned

[twilit canyon]

its lowkey underrated

opp agent is brutal

[tardy echo]

Timeless is to legacy as explorer is to pioneer as brawl is to duel commander

[twilit canyon]

and ppl sleep on it

[tardy echo]

Slightly different but same idea

[twilit canyon]

yeah kinda

[steady onyx]

i really wanna play pitch black if i buy a real legacy dekc

ngl

[twilit canyon]

only timeless is on significantly more coke

[steady onyx]

cause its kinda cheap

[tardy echo]

And alchemy/arena balanced

[tardy echo]

Because wotc forgot about it

[twilit canyon]

nah

it is intentional

they mentioned it

[tardy echo]

On god??

[twilit canyon]

cus ppl asked for strip mine ban and they said "nah we want it in there"

[tardy echo]

They didn’t want legacy digital they wanted vintage…

[twilit canyon]

yeah actually

[steady onyx]

bro

[twilit canyon]

they only restricted like 2 cards

which honestly shouldnt be restricted after this latest drop

[steady onyx]

i wanna play badgermole, i wanna play appa and aang, i wanna play ouroboid, i wanna play everything

[tardy echo]

Does timeless have any of the legacy bans

[twilit canyon]

fon saves the meta

[steady onyx]

100 card 5c standard deck

:)

[twilit canyon]

none

[tardy echo]

Holy

[twilit canyon]

it has a restricted list

[tardy echo]

It’s literally vintage

[twilit canyon]

and it includes like 3 cards

tibalts trickery, dem tutor, and channel

[tardy echo]

LMFAO

[twilit canyon]

u will legit get sacked turn 1

[tardy echo]

Trickery and channel otw to being the most banned cards ever

[twilit canyon]

it is that type of format

i saw someone dem tutor me into trickery emrakul once

i was mad asf

[tardy echo]

Trickery might be the most hated card in the game

[twilit canyon]

but then another game someone show and telled and i dropped my own omni and i used borne upon to win on their turn

force of negation will help the sacky nature of it

but the sacky nature of the format is intentional

its why they have chrome mox -> strip mine + drs + w6

[tardy echo]

I didn’t realize ritual was banned in historic

[steady onyx]

bro when will ther be pauiper on arena

:(

[twilit canyon]

pauper is on arena but its rotating

[steady onyx]

wdym

[twilit canyon]

it comes up as an event with some regularity

[steady onyx]

oloh

[twilit canyon]

pauper and artisan

[steady onyx]

fun

god i got a 3v3 in like 2 weeks

i need to lock in

[twilit canyon]

but they arent made into official formats on arena bc they have concerns over player retention of it

[steady onyx]

ive been on fire recently tho

[twilit canyon]

due to modo stats too

they want modo to stil have a purpose

[steady onyx]

fair enoguh

[clever sun]

I do not know where Misty is lol

Oh California apparently

[steady onyx]

wait this seems sick

[twilit canyon]

fangkeeper's is solid, but not worth a black splash

and neither is bargain

[steady onyx]

but dosent airbending fangkeepers sound sick as shit

or hell ephemerating fangkeepers

[twilit canyon]

yes, and?

good habit to form: ask what the card's doing in the worst possible scenarios

[steady onyx]

staying in hand for 4mana

[twilit canyon]

alright, now go a step up

[steady onyx]

is fangkeepers rly not good in like any deck tho

[twilit canyon]

flash in as a 3/3 efender

[steady onyx]

like either enchanemtnt removal, counterpsll,

[twilit canyon]

*blocket

[steady onyx]

ohwait this card sucks

i trhought it was counter anything

[twilit canyon]

counter creature, or destroy enchantment

this is good actually

gain 3 surveil 3

thats fine

[steady onyx]

but isnt artifcat important aswell?

[twilit canyon]

a surveil 2 is about 1 draw

so surveil 3 is about 1.5 cards

[steady onyx]

like this is my horrible deckbuilding skills

[twilit canyon]

but truly think about the use case scenarios and what can happen when your deck you want this card in (or any card)

and how it looks when things dont pan out

[sleek ferry]

You know what’s actually cool? Momo making sage of the sky 2 mana

[twilit canyon]

good way to view that actually

[steady onyx]

idk to me, the card is 4 mana and it is flash, with a 3/3 body, it can either surveil 3 and gain 3 which can help against amono red aggro deck or a more aggro deck that you need to lifegain against, destroy target enchentment is like fine into some decks that have enchanemtns u wanna rmove but its just nice to have that as a plus, and then the main case to me sems to be a creature countersell that gives u a body

[twilit canyon]

look at momo

1 mana

legendary

1/1

flyer

whats the worst case?

you play it turn 1, they kill it

thats... fine

[steady onyx]

they prob spent 2 mana

so u are happy

[twilit canyon]

maybe they didnt

maybe it was 1

but again, they used removal on it

so you dont care much

[steady onyx]

and not on smt that matters

[twilit canyon]

then escalate a bit

[steady onyx]

cause it was just ur one drop

[twilit canyon]

it sticks around, but you dont have a flyer to follow up

well its still a 1/1

[steady onyx]

its 1 evasion damage

[twilit canyon]

with flying

yep

and then go up again

[steady onyx]

and if u have a flyer the card seems insane

[twilit canyon]

you are discounting a flyer, but its a 2 mana flye

[steady onyx]

sure

now 2/2 evasion

[twilit canyon]

so now its a 2/2, it discounted a single card by 1, and thats... still p good

[sleek ferry]

It’s a 1 mana evasive attacker at worst, they knew not to give it the discount during either turn though sigh

[twilit canyon]

this way of thinking will definitely disproportionately affect how u see more expensive cards, but using context can help evaluate them better

so we loop back to fangkeeers

[sleek ferry]

2 mana aang and 2 mana aven would have gone so hard

[twilit canyon]

4 mana

1 + sultai

3/3

so below rate

[steady onyx]

for a 3/3 body

and it dosent have any evasion

or anything

outside its etb effect

[twilit canyon]

it does surveil 3 and gains 3 on etb

thats ok

true worst case: its uncastable

especially in your deck

this should basically mean its not going to be in your deck rn

but lets entertain it say u can actually cast it

then the worst case is that its a 4 mana 3/3 with surveil and gain 3

would your deck actually care about any of this?

[steady onyx]

no

lol

mayube like hit a aang or something

but like

[twilit canyon]

does it need 3 power creatures? is the graveyard stuff of surveil good? what about the 3 life?

[sleek ferry]

I think when analyzing cards like fangkeeper’s, you should look at what other modal creatures are doing at around the same rate/cheaper also

[steady onyx]

surveil could be nice but gy dosent matter

[twilit canyon]

next, you consider whether countering a creature matters for your deck as is

[twilit canyon]

yes but no here

bc for areo here, i want him to start thinking about individual cards

cus individual card eval matters more for brewing with new cards than other cards

[steady onyx]

hm wait wait

[twilit canyon]

even if it is good to see about the whole context

[steady onyx]

let me take another card im thinkin about and try myselfg

[[anang at the crossroads]]

[lost widget]

No card found for “anang at the crossroads”

[sleek ferry]

I only say that, because we have the other momo, which I initially thought was ass, and then I read it

Now I think it’s okay

[twilit canyon]

oh and individual card eval is good for drafting blind

[steady onyx]

worst case scenario 5 mana 3/3 with flying 1 + bant
then if i can get its etb it gives me itself plus POTENTIALLY another body (idk what percetnage on that is but in a deck built with it in mind lets say 80% of the time (maybe less like 60 idk)
then if i get its leave trigger, i get a 4/4 flier
if it lives to combat I get a 2/2 every time it lives
but it has to stick around to get the 4/4 flyer and the more 2/2

it seems to expensive to me

but idk

[twilit canyon]

its 2 + bant

[steady onyx]

yes

whihc is why it feels expensive

[twilit canyon]

worst case is it gets stuck in hand

[steady onyx]

oh i see

[twilit canyon]

but say u can cast it, its 5 mana

you'd have to brick 5 turns in a row to never cast it in a deck where you (hopefully) mathed it out how to cast a bant colors on turn 5

etb, it can draw 1 but it cant draw itself so multiples can make this ability whiff

[steady onyx]

draw 1?

dosent it just put on battlefield

or r u considering that draw

[twilit canyon]

as draw

[steady onyx]

ok

[twilit canyon]

since in theory theres ins outs to cheating things into play

eh if u wanna be pedantic its a +0 neutral on its investment

and then, it has a conditional transformation

when a card flips, unless it can always guarantee flip itself or its condition to flip is so arbitrary through normal game mechanics, dont consider it as anything to start

[steady onyx]

ok

[twilit canyon]

so in essence, this is just a 5 mana bant card with flying as a 3/3 that can +1 your board

with a whiff possibility

[steady onyx]

when do i think about using it with other cards

cause to me the reason i feel u run it in this deck

is with like ur airbending triggering transform and potentially the etb again

[twilit canyon]

in short: dont

[steady onyx]

ok

[twilit canyon]

because a game of magic can mean u will never get this synergy to work

your opponent may have all the removal spells ready for aang

[steady onyx]

if i have to think about that its prob not worth it then?

[twilit canyon]

or maybe, you just are never able to get this to work with another creature at the same time

[twilit canyon]

not quite

the thing to consider, eventually, is how good the base effect is

and if it that is worth it baseline

[steady onyx]

hm

i would say no for this card

[twilit canyon]

and thats a good conclusion to reach. this doesnt mean that this card wont see play

but if it doesnt, u understand why it wont as well

if viewed very favorably, this is effectively a 5 mana collected company

if your deck can meet the coco conditions, maybe it can have something

[steady onyx]

ok

i get this

azorious does seem super fun tho

i may look into it

[sleek ferry]

Btw, is warp riddler into splash portal actually decent? I felt like it was cope

[twilit canyon]

its ok

def on the weaker end

mostly cus u have fuck all else to splash portal really

but its fine

the rizzler is a good card

[sleek ferry]

I could probably play riddler here high key

I was out here playing games with this kid

genuinely the reason why jeskai blink is fake. add a psychic frog and watch how fast lethal presents itself

[tardy echo]

Doppelgang is ass bro

Holy

[twilit canyon]

typical early format greed

"yes add two doppelgangs in, it'll steal games!"

[tardy echo]

I feel like ur ramp payoffs should be cards that can win on their own and also stabilize if you’re in a bad spot (sire)

(Ugin)

[twilit canyon]

wan shi tong too lowkey

[tardy echo]

Very much

And marang is also a good slot

[twilit canyon]

ya

[tardy echo]

But craterhoof/doppelgang/whatever are just like

[twilit canyon]

i can semi excuse hoof

[tardy echo]

Pray I don’t play against aggro pray all my mana dorks stick pray that they don’t draw the removal spell

[twilit canyon]

it isnt totally uncastable

[tardy echo]

It’s just like

[twilit canyon]

and worst case it still haste swings

but doppel is troll

[tardy echo]

When ur casting craterhoof entirely with mana from dorks its attacking on its own

And then you’re losing to way too much stuff

I just think sire is prob the safest thing u can cast for 7 that wins

And/or ugin I’m still trying to figure out ratios with that

[twilit canyon]

i think ugin is probably not as safe as sire into aggro but kind of better elsewhere

If you control someone's combat on @MTG_Arena with Secret of Bloodbending and they control no creatures, it will just not let you do anything unless you hold full control (I hope?). Can't tap them out, can't cast instants, nothing it just completly skips it.

[subtle sierra]

oh you guys are doing the bounce variants?

i've been doing bant

[golden plover]

Nah this is flash

We run aang to bounce their shit

[subtle sierra]

oh this is just with cosmogrand?

[golden plover]

Yeah sorta

[subtle sierra]

oh ic

this goes a bit more into tempo ig

[tardy echo]

Ugin can still cook into aggro sometimes

[subtle sierra]

i like bant more but tempo is prob better

[tardy echo]

Esp if u draw both but obv that needs a lot to go right

[golden plover]

Definitely. This is the list

We're not self bouncing at all. We're just flashing in our guys to prevent them from playing

I know the bant list has a cute infinite combo, but it's too cute and not good imo

Interrupter with airbending is nasty

[subtle sierra]

yeah i thought the deck is only the combo but all the airbending stuff works really well even if you don't draw it

say you have aven appa ascension, you can comfortably loop aven here for 2 "counters" a turn

die

but you can't in mtga

and even if you do it fast they still have a max timer on the turn

[tardy echo]

Shrines looks so fun now

They even look like cool cards just for like sythis/whatever g/w deck

[trail anvil]

sadly I feel like you need a decent amount of them to scale

or probably not sadly, considering how good some of these damn cards are when they hit lmao

but god with this many good shrines you can actually kill and sustain yourself so easily, feels so good

[atomic harness]

[trail anvil]

renfie you should totally play go-shintai brawl, the format is fun again 😌

[atomic harness]

I might...

[trail anvil]

[stark skiff]

apparently cabbage mercent extended foil is 45 bucks lol

[subtle sierra]

[trail anvil]

cabbage merchant is a pretty fun commander

[stark skiff]

Okay I’m a complete sucker. Come back @atomic harness lend me your energy

[atomic harness]

Gl

[subtle sierra]

[stark skiff]

V2 of Bant Airbending is here! Putting up a record of 19-2 and taking me up to #5 mythic this version is even faster and stronger than the previous. The ability to combo turn 3 is much higher with the mana from badgermole making some truly absurd draws.

What

Why tf would you play aang at the crossroads

This eats shit to anything adjacent to aggro

I like the dorks tho

Still not getting badger tho

The deck is really good but you don't focus on the combo, if that makes sense

You just play aven aang as stall and fake tempo, that has the combo as a finisher

[subtle sierra]

yep i tried this and immediately got my shit kicked in, that many mana dorks is not the way

like, hooray i have this, too bad i ate shit into 3 removals

what a deck huh

god I wish I had the wildcards for this

[subtle sierra]

yeah that's a lot

[fallow citrus]

just a few

probably like 30+ rares

[trail anvil]

there goes aang at the crossroads again

[subtle sierra]

lmao can you not pay X costs with a spell that was airbent?

[trail anvil]

I don't imagine so?

[subtle sierra]

crazy

[trail anvil]

since it forces you to pay 2

did you airbend an owl

[subtle sierra]

i just aang'ed a x=12 wan shi tong

[trail anvil]

doing that into open blue mana is so greedy lmao

[subtle sierra]

kid is playing dork turbo

[trail anvil]

this really is giving me the ratatouille meme though with hydroid krasis

[subtle sierra]

i have combo it's over

ok it took them 3 minutes of looping to realize they fucking lost

[sleek ferry]

[sleek ferry]

[tardy echo]

Until everyone realizes w6 is still broken

[subtle sierra]

this control is weirdly midrange shaped

[steady onyx]

@sleek ferry can u plz send me ur azorious list

[sleek ferry]

I don't share lists until I hit mythic

[steady onyx]

i just wanan see the gist of the deck bro

ok made the deck

[subtle sierra]

[golden plover]

It's weirdly refreshing that the most problematic deck in the game now is simic
