I think the green midrange deck of the future is sultai

Krasis is still around and murderous rider+Assassin's trophy make black very attractive.

Plus Goose loves being paired with Oko and sultai is a great shell for that combo.

Green core with enough black & white to play Garruk and Tolsimir is my rough plan for a wolf deck.

This unpleasant-looking thing is a wolf: http://mythicspoiler.com/ted/cards/fiercewitchstalker.html It makes a food on ETB too.

I saw that too. I was already planning to run 4-of Nightpack Predator and Wicked Wolf so I don't know how well that would play. Some potential synergies though

I think the profile page thing is just showing next to mastery to indicate the end date for core 2020 mastery. Mine's kind of glowy and makes sound and does an animation if I click it but doesn't really do anything else.

You will get to open the renewal rewards once Eldraine hits, that's the point. Everyone who has played before the 26th will get the rewards, and if you purchase the Eldraine mastery then you'll get some extra stuff as well that's listed in the picture.

I actually made this in Selesnya a couple months back and it was pretty decent. Unfortunately, I think that black cars that -3s a creature type kills it dead

Is that image saying that if I purchase the Eldraine mastery before the 26th I'll get 6 extra packs?

I had a fantastic jank match last night. I was usin' my Kill'em deck (you know which quest it's designed for). My opponent is on the play. T1 they drop two Leyline of Abundances and one Llanowar Elf. T2 a Paradise Druid and Steel-Leaf Champion. T3 Nissa and manlands and +1/+1 counters up the wazoo.

Meanwhile I'm just Walk the Planking and Cast Downing the bigger guys until my T4 Ritual of Soot, then a Ravenous Chupacabra which I Spark Harvested to kill the Nissa.

Got him down to nothin' but those two Leylines by turn seven or so.

Met my quest goal.

More correctly, log in before the 26th to get the rewards on or after the 26th. This is aimed at getting new players to sign up.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.
I hit level 70, so I will easily cruise to level 72, and as I'm on the free pass because I didn't want a dumb fire cat, I am happy at maxing out.

High end coding and the movement of furniture, thank you.

This week I struggled with y = mx + b and relocating chickens. Both more complex operations than you might expect.

Next week maybe I'll manage to figure out how to put pants on correctly.

I should work on my summaries.

i am extremely bored of m20 draft and ready for a new environment. just hit plat with a double Skeleton/double Murder/double Splinters deck with Blood for Bones and Scholar of the Ages. three of the seven wins were to opponents conceding after i demonstrated the Bones/Scholar loop.

deck also had a Cavalier of Gales, sometimes you just have it

m20 was a fun format to figure out but theres a real lack of diversity. theres only a few viable color combinations and 2/3 of them have black as one of their colors

so, turns out that reanimator deck is really good jank if you can go duress, thought erasure, thought erasure, tamiyo (get back thought erasure), thought erasure, thought erasure.

how does the kelthis deck ever beat simic flash if teferi costs 3 and negate costs 2? The math just doesn't work out.

Someone made a google sheet that shows you how much value you'll get from the M20 Mastery Pass, but since your level is so low and the pass expires in 3 days, you're better off saving your gems.

The only game I’ve lost to Grixis in the last month or so is one in which my opponent cast Enter the God-Eternals 3 turns in a row, and if they’d cast literally any other card in their deck I’d have won. Yarok doesn’t give a gently caress how many cards you make it discard because every draw is total gas once you hit like 6 mana.

Yeah I couldn't make much traction with grixis decks this month so I ended up finishing up the climb to mythic with vampires. I think I was playing the new player vampires deck about a year ago when I started, so it was a little nostalgic, kind of.
