kirtar posted:Wait did this idiot think that Monastery Mentor was a one of or was it a different 3? He thought Venser was a 1-of (I have 2). That comment was in response to my bouncing his counterbalance with a Venser. The 3 I revealed game 1 was a Vendilion Clique, which I have 3 of.

I booked hotels for columbus and I'm driving but I'm still unsure on the main event. I'm mostly going to unload the rest of my collection. It is tempting to just run dredge though.

numerrik posted:http://www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/361505#paper Since I just bought burn I wanted to show you my deck and why I chose some of the different than average pieces. Deck: Boros Burn //Creatures 4 Eidolon of the Great Revel 4 Goblin Guide 4 Monastery Swiftspear 2 Zurgo Bellstriker //Spells 4 Boros Charm 4 Lava Spike 4 Lightning Bolt 3 Lightning Helix 4 Rift Bolt 4 Shard Volley 4 Skullcrack //Lands 4 Battlefield Forge 4 Bloodstained Mire 4 Sacred Foundry 7 Mountain //Sideboard 2 Dragon's Claw 4 Searing Blood 4 Smash to Smithereens 3 Volcanic Fallout 2 Wear // Tear The main difference in my deck is that I don't run many fetches so I opted out of Searing Blaze and Grim Lavamancer. For a more budget route drop the Goblin Guides for Keldon Marauders and the fetches for more Mountains.

I dislike the 4x Shard Volley quite a bit and I think I'd still run Blood or Blaze main.

Elyv posted:I dislike the 4x Shard Volley quite a bit and I think I'd still run Blood or Blaze main. That's fair. Shard Volley is definitely one of the weakest cards and usually will be the first out when sideboarding. But I also don't know how strong Searing is going to be in my meta, I'm trying to think of decks I've played against that would have a creature that can die to it.

I mean, the problem for me is specifically 4x volley in a deck with 18 land. You're going to have games where you draw 2 of them or even 3 of them and just won't be able to afford to play them. I dislike having that more than 2 of that card in my deck. Also, I think most decks will have targets for Blood.

4x Zurgo the Not Very Good 4x Swiftspear 4x Abbot of Keral Keep 2x Scab Clan Berzerker 4x Lightning Bolt 4x Lava Spike 4x Rift Bolt 4x Skullcrack 4x Boros Charm 4x Lightning Helix 2x Exquisite Firecraft 4x Sacred Foundry 4x Battlefield Forge 4x Mana Confluence 8x Mountain This is what I came up with. An obvious upgrade would be Eidolons instead of Abbots. Once you can afford to replace the Forges and Mana Confluence with Bloodstained Mires and Wooded foothills, you can trade the berzerkers for lavamancers and swap out the firecrafts and/or some number of lightning helixes for searing blazes. At that point you can also add stomping grounds and/or some number of copperline gorges to splash green if you want. This lets you add atarka's command and trade your zurgos for wild nacatls. Then the only thing left to upgrade into are more fetches in the form of arid mesas and the goblin guides, which are the most expensive parts of the deck.

GEExCEE posted:4x Zurgo the Not Very Good Because you probably aren't fetching non-mountains there's no reason to buy Arid Mesas unless you want 12 fetches. The Bloodstained Mire and Wooded Foothills are cheap enough and give you eight fetches. I would also probably avoid the Scab Clan Beserkers. They're slow. Ash Zealot and Keldon Marauders are faster and not expensive. Elyv posted:I mean, the problem for me is specifically 4x volley in a deck with 18 land. You're going to have games where you draw 2 of them or even 3 of them and just won't be able to afford to play them. I dislike having that more than 2 of that card in my deck. I'll probably take out 2 Volley in the main for 2 Searing Blood from the side and put in 2 Molten Rain.

Ok so EMA and Legacy Gauntlet are coming, and Everblight said he doesn't really play anymore, so I'm going to post a new thread in the next few days here. Feel free to throw out suggestions for stuff. My basic plan is to showcase the decks that will be in the gauntlet (but better builds of all of them), some general info on Legacy / Vintage, and maybe some plans on getting into the formats. How much should I mention modern since that's not technically an "eternal" format? I'm not as knowledgeable in it, does someone want to take a second post to explain modern?

It would be fun if instead there were a bunch of fake posts about the sweet speculation success we all had in modern. Like the time I got 30 ancestral vision and flipped them for mad profits.

Snacksmaniac posted:What was the price out of curiosity? $129 (pre tax/parking) for the block. The other hotels in the direct vicinity of the convention center were $140 or more. I ended up booking at the downtown Holiday Inn, but that was still $131 and I'll have to repark. kirtar fucked around with this message at 19:24 on Jun 1, 2016 |
