I think the new Sisidi will be good. In commander. Not sure about standard or draft yet. Edit: also, I was hoping the next morph mechanic would be morph that would trigger depending on game state, ie "if you lost five or more life this turn, flip this card face up" or something like that.

The new Zurgo seems amazing. I need to go buy a playset of bloodstained mires because man I want to play Mardu heroes.

Irony Be My Shield posted:Well that certainly is a 2/2 for 1 in red with upside I'm thinking 3 will be a good number. As long as you keep dashing him, you should almost never lose him. I can see running 4 of though. God Zurgo is such a good card now.

The only question is how many you're prepared to run given it's legendary, I suspect the answer will be either 3 or 4 because it's amazing.
|
So between Zurgo, Swiftspear, Foundry Street denizen, and lightning berserker, sligh is looking like it is going to be pretty good after this set for a while. add in dragon fodder and outburst and there is a really good base right there.

bhsman posted:Denizen is part of M15, unfortunately, and won't survive rotation without a reprint. That said, there's also stuff like Heelcutter, Wild Slash, and Break Through the Lines. Ah right, I forgot about that. Well, I get to live the dream for six months at least. And like you said, there are some other good options.

I really love dash as mechanic. It is really good for red because it gives the creatures to evade wraths and sorcery speed removal, while also allowing them to remain aggressive. My list looks a lot like his though. Seeing how much work rabble master put in makes me want to pock up a pair.

You know, I could imagine him as a one of in mono-green devotion. Once you have an absence amount of mana, you could cast him and your dudes in hand for game. If only he gave trample.

Yeah, it is, I dunno what I'm complaining about. Surrak is pretty alright. He will probably see more play than his other version at least. So we can now confirm that Taigam will probably be three mana, seeing how the other Kahns costs are 1, 2, 4 and 5 so far, right?

So apparently Taigam is not getting a card, which just seems really weird because there isn't a complete five color legendary cycle despite each other color getting one.

Yeah, anyone who says standard is expensive, and then goes and plays warhammer, is obviously allowing the point fly over their head. Also they obviously have never seen a RDW list. I made mine for 50.

Dohaeris posted:What would you guys recommend for a newer player as a deck that is relatively inexpensive but still competitive at a typical FNM in the current standard? Or at least will potentially still be competitive after Dragons of Tarkir. I like my Sultai deck but as someone else told me in this thread, it does seem like it requires a ton of decision making that I'm still really bad at as a new player. A RDW, like I mentioned. I made mine for 50 bucks including stokes, and while it looks like Dragons will be a real midrangy, RDW will probably have good match ups. Edit: do note I don't run rabblemasters though, so that drops the cost by quite a lot.

Quick question, is it possible for someone to tap a card that isn't normally tappable due to an effect? For example, if player A has tangle wire out, could the tap that tangle wire as one of the cards?

Count Bleck posted:I guess I misinterpreted the new rule. I'm going to keep running Chaos Warp in red decks just because it will still be reds best removal spell in EDH. I'm pretty mixed on the change though. On one hand, I hate getting my general tucked, on the other, there are commanders who are just so powerful that yeah they need a way to be gotten rid of that doesn't just let them come back the next turn.

That is pretty much my line up as well, though I'm only running 3 Zurgo because I was finding 4 to be much, much to clunky. I want to test rabblemaster more, but I don't own any, and really don't feel like picking them up atm.
