Zenith wasn't banned only because of Dryad Arbor, but also because if your deck had green in it, you had no reason not to run GSZ.

Got a list for your UR delver? I haven't updated mine since after khans, wondering what people are running.

I think that another reason why people netdeck is because cards cost money. If you buy expensive cards for your own brew, chances are that it just isn't going to be good, and you can't afford to just buy cards for another brew. If you buy cards for an established list, you at least know that the deck is decent.

Cedric Philips plays modern, but I'd hate to see him stop commentating legacy (with Patrick Sullivan), since it's the format that's the most fun to watch.

Lol, legacy owns. This is the board state and I have 4 bolts in my hand. I decide to shortcut it and just put all 4 on the stack because 4 bolts lol. I managed to win later on by drawing chain lightnings and snapcasters, but try and guess how the guy took no damage this turn.

Not sure. In paper, I'd usually go bolt? then wait for my opponent to say OK before proceeding with another bolt. Paper magic has some weird interactions like that, like for instance when you ask your opponent exactly how many copies of Deceiver Exarch they're making and then all of a sudden they decide they're playing around all sorts of stuff when previously they were just like "combo, do i win?"

I remember thinking up of a situation that you can resolve on MTGO but have no chance of resolving in paper (and it's not a loop that causes a draw, like the o-ring loop), I'll try to think of what it was.

Oh yeah, I think I got it: you get an arbitrarily large storm count (say, one billion) and then cast Brain Freeze on an opponent, but your opponent has an Ulamog in his deck. After all of those copies of Brain Freeze are finished resolving, what is the top deck of your opponent's deck? I recall this actually happening in one of my EDH games once (I was the one with the Brain Freeze hehe) EDIT: Well in this case his top card is random either way, but there are probably states that involve arbitrarily large numbers and not being able to resolve their effects because you would actually have to do something one billion times to see the end result. EDIT2: For instance, if someone had a Dimir Doppelganger on the board during all this, which creature would he be able to copy? There's a chance that every creature in the opponent's deck that's being milled will eventually enter the graveyard, but it's not a 100% chance. hey mom its 420 fucked around with this message at 04:05 on Nov 16, 2014 |

I like playing UR delver (legacy and modern) but in my defense I played them before they were popular. Went 3-1 with it in my LGS today, lost to some rear end in a top hat running a zoo deck with 4x maindeck volcanic fallout.

Pretty much main thing about modern is that Jace and Stoneforge are banned, so yeah, it's not gonna get unbanned.

You can get your Twinflame back. If the copy of Mnemonic Wall is on the battlefield, that means that Twinflame has finished resolving, so it's in the graveyard. Its ETB ability can target the Twinflame. It's the same process that allows you to blink a permanent repeatedly if you have a Mnemonic Wall on the battlefield and a Ghostly Flicker in hand.

BaronVonVaderham posted:My old group actually did some rules modifications around things like infect. It's clearly intended to be half your life total, so in commander it's 20 poison counters to die. Same goes for Sorin Markov's -3 ability, which we errata to say, "Target opponent's life total becomes half their starting life total," since it's pretty busted otherwise and we didn't want to outright ban the card. But to be fair, we do that with Serra Ascendant and Felidar Sovereign, otherwise something like my Oloro deck could abuse that and just win on turn 3 or 4 if no one just has removal sitting in hand.

Woop, had my first real game against a real salty dog! First he complained about my play because in game 1 I said I cast a snapcaster and then quickly said wait nooo uhh I'll cast manaleak instead. I said OK sorry I will be mindful of playing tighter. He did a similar thing in game 2 and accidentally mulliganed to 7 and then just shuffled a random card from his hand into the library. I probably should have called a judge there. Anyway, he was on some sort of unearth burn deck and I played UR delver, and after I beat him 2-0 he had like a 3 minute tirade about how I "completely lucked out and that's all there is to it" and how the deck takes no skill and it's easy to win if you play bad but you're lucky, blah blah. It was pretty funny, I just sat there and after his rant said thanks for the game and left. In retrospect, I should have teased him a bit for being such a crybaby.

The Wicked Wall posted:I'm looking to get into modern, and having played a fair bit with my friend's decks to help them test, I'm kind of interested in building Affinity. Problem is, it's a pretty expensive deck, and I'm wondering if there's a cheaper way to get into modern just so I can have a go at local events etc. with my own deck. UR delver is very good right now, it's not crazy expensive (especially the version without snapcasters), you can use khans fetchlands instead of scalding tarns, and it has cards that translate to other decks, so you can build up towards an UR shell. Cruise might get banned though, so wait for the next B&R announcement. Or you can just pick up merfolk. It's a really fun deck and it packs quite a punch and it's surprisingly flexible for a mono blue deck. You can run a more midrange version with more master of waves, a totally aggro version with only 1-drops and lords, chalice of the void versions, etc.

Ableist Kinkshamer posted:The deck existed and wasn't bad before Treasure Cruise, I think it will survive a Treasure Cruise ban regardless. True, I ran it before TC. The version with 4 snapcasters and 4 DTT is also good, so if TC gets banned, DTT will probably step in as the delve spell of choice. Also yeah, when is the B&R announcement

The reason it's banned I think is (besides the Dryad Arbor fetching) that if you're a green creature deck, there's pretty much no reason not to run 4x GSZ.

PERPETUAL IDIOT posted:Why would elves want another combo finish that's not as good as the one it has, especially when neither piece can be tutored up? I don't think Earthcraft would serve as a finish, but as a mana engine. Being able to tap elvish visionaries and wirewood symbiotes for mana could get that craterhoof behemoth out way more reliably.

First Bass posted:Man, Tiny Leaders is starting to pick up at the local scene, and I'm deciding what to build. Two of my friends have made Doran Buttfights and Jeskai "Basically Legacy UWR Control", respectively. I've brewed up a Geist Voltron deck, but I'm afraid it might be just too disgusting, even if I'm playing against really experienced semi-pros. I saw a guy playing basically a legacy jund loam deck and it was very powerful. Clique is awesome as a commander too.

Derevi is banned in TL. I think the best commanders are Ezuri and Geist and probably Marath. I'm having a lot of fun with Thassa merfolk tribal and Yasova zoo/tempo (think RUG delver in legacy). Another cool commander I've been thinking of is Nin the Pain artist UR control. Lots of sweepers, some counterspells, then put in some walls so you can ping with Nin and draw, and a couple of finishers (Calcite Snapper, Ludevic's Subject, Stitched Drake, TNN, Mardu Scout, etc.) and you're set.

I got a playset of volcanics and one tundra. I wanna trade the volcanics for goyfs because I mostly play modern but some part of my brain is preventing me from doing that, which is probably for the best. Oh, the other day I was looking for a remand that I was sure I had, and I found a card with remand written on the back. Flipping it revealed that it was the remand I was looking for. hey mom its 420 fucked around with this message at 15:16 on Feb 11, 2015 |
