Jumpstart lands after M21, Amonkhet lands after Zendikar Rising and Pioneer Masters should be in the dead time of the set after that which takes us to 2021.

https://twitter.com/ZKiihne/status/1263658959715602434 This is a fun deck Tezzeract posted:Amonkhet and Kaladesh aren't part of historic right now? No. They are very averse to just throwing in packs of non Standard sets into the game because then people will be mad they have to drop currency on opening packs of mostly garbage (because the marginal cards don't get to shine in Standard because they're not in Standard) to get Historic stuff. e: TIL Siren Stormtamer can counter Ulamog's cast effect lol Eej fucked around with this message at 07:45 on May 22, 2020 |

I think this is my first ever 7-0. I didn't think it would work, not enough 1-cyclers. Weaponize did the most heavy lifting. And I got to cast Wilt twice despite the single green source

Any final cuts here? https://www.17lands.com/deck/420b4899d3e24dee85b65da9a61c321a I got Seas, Thundermane and Startling Development as my first three picks and kinda built from there but it feels a little light on finishers, hence picking the Patagia Tiger, and taking a late Pteron over another cycler. I never saw any of teh really premium cycling payoffs unfortunately, but hopefully the Seas might be enough to get me over the line.

I just started playing historic and I am thrilled to see that the old standard mono-blue deck based on curious obsession and evasive 1-drops is still viable there.

Just finished the FNM historic artisan with a selesnya enchantment deck. Was pretty fun. Mono red still seems really strong but all that glitters is just crazy once you get some board presence. Best card was destiny spinner though because being able to poo poo out giant land monsters with trample finished most of the games I played. I can't afford any of the historic cards so it's nice I can just use what I have to play in these. As always if anyone has any spare codes for the event I'd appreciate one.

Weaponize is also responsible for my first 7-0 of the format: https://www.17lands.com/deck/26df6466207e4610ab370b18864ac6e2/3 Card's bananas. Obosh was P3P1 and I couldn't quite get there to companion it, but it was great as just a card in the deck. I have to say drafts and games are getting wayyyyy tougher at platinum, winrate has dropped quite a bit.

You can drop Lurrus into it with the mana base being so good and have recurring Stormtamers or Tricksters. Absolute sicko poo poo.

Loving this so far. All the incidental value beaters they added really made this deck less of a pain in the rear end to pilot. People are still mad as hell about this deck, I'm encountering ropers every other game

AngryBooch posted:what's in the sideboard? 4x Gust 4x Dispute 2x Negate 2x Drake and 3x Triceratops that I’ve literally never brought in. They’re there for the match up against the highest IQ deck in any format ever, poverty mono-u, but everyone is either playing Caveman Gruul or some Yorion pile. I suspect I’ll probably replace them with Blink of an Eye or more Borrowers because 3cmc Teferi is a big problem.

I played against a deck in plat last night featuring Umori as companion, instants only (!), and a scattering of Erebos'/Thassa's Intervention, Heartless Act, Lazotep Plating (RIP my dead weight/Mire's grasp combo), and Commence the Endgame to refill their hand and put a big zombie body on board. and 35 counterspells, obviously. also ran into a deck using Offspring's Revenge, Mire Triton, and Tymaret Calls The Dead to cheat out poo poo like Drakuseth, Cavalier of Flame/Night, and recur Fenlurker. Complimented by Syr Konrad, Bastion of Remembrance and Luminous Broodmoth. didn't even mind losing to those, felt cool as hell and got me thinking about other deck possibilities.

I don't think Blink of an Eye or Brazen Borrower are particularly great cards against Teferi. I'd try Questing Beast, which even has the minor upside of being a real clock in the mirror.

I’ve found creature based solutions are too slow/expensive/prone to getting chumped. fadam fucked around with this message at 16:41 on May 22, 2020 |

Questing Beast seems like way too fair a card for Nexus, you aren't playing any board control cards to help it connect. Just spending 2 mana to bounce Teferi the turn you go off seems like a better plan. The best creature based answer to Teferi is Sharknado but you're already playing those anyway.

Just spending 2 mana to bounce Teferi the turn you go off seems like a better plan. Both sides of Sharknado have overperformed in every game I’ve cast them in. Turning your Nexus loops into attackers is situationally spectacular. It, Uro, and the shortcut to float all mana have made playing this deck substantially less of a pain in the rear end than it used to be. fadam fucked around with this message at 16:43 on May 22, 2020 |

Just beat Jeff Hoogland pretty bad in trad Historic with mono B. He was running mono G Ulamog, just durdled around while I blew poo poo up, stole his hand and ground value out of my one-drops.

I'm still gravitating to trying to make Historic Humans happen. Hoping there's a shell that features Meddling Mage, Thalia, and Kitesail Freebooter that disrupts just enough to sneak in 20 damage just across the finish line.
