salt shakeup posted:Yeah I don't think Esper Dance will stay top tier. I couldn't win a game with it last night, but then I switched to Bant Golos and couldn't lose. Bant golos is such a boring loving deck. It’s boring to play against and boring to play with. It sucks it’s that good

What all decks are you going with for the event? I think I’m going to go with green stomp; troll kings, wicked wolves, yorvo, henge, questing beasts, and mana dorks.

GreyjoyBastard posted:Yeah I'm completely undecided on what to run - my Rakdos aggro is tons of fun and I'm getting better at piloting it but what if the meta is anti-aggro and I lose Yeah! I like mine too but I think that green has been more consistent. If I run into heavy removal my random aggro doesn’t have a lot of draw

Came to echo that golos field is boring af to play against. Did okay in the event, went 3-2 with henge. Lost to golos and a knights deck that drew the nuts.

ChrisBTY posted:They tried to stop Hogaak decks by banning the card that wasn't JUST printed. So this is basically prospecting on futures. I can craft fields with about 6 WCs on the shell stuff and 4 on Fields. I’ll theoretically lose the shell WCs since they have no value without fields. How much enjoyment can I squeeze out of the deck stomping on people before they ban it (if they ban it) and is it worth the wildcards I would need to spend?

Turns out I just needed two golos. First game: drew only grazers and hydroids for my first six draws and died to some selesnya deck. Lol at being too dumb to win with golos... Chased by two wins via insta concedes after hitting golos twice. This deck IS brain dead sephiRoth IRA fucked around with this message at 06:41 on Oct 8, 2019 |

Dimir mill has been a ton of fun today. Probably going to lose more than I win in the long game, but I’m like 5/1 today. Drown in the Loch is wicked powerful when there is 36 cards in the opp yard

flatluigi posted:I mean the hard part of that functionality is getting usable reports that aren't just 'I lost and I'm mad' I liked the idea of a report button that comes up automatically after there has been extensive roping or emoting. They already had a “did you like this match” thing for a bit there. Or have some way to initiate a flag for extremely specific reasons, like racist as gently caress username.

Gruul embercleave pushed me farther up the ladder than I’ve ever been last night. I wonder if I shouldn’t just switch to simic food though. I didn’t catch all of the tournament, how does that matchup tend to go? Is there a game I could be pointed to from the MC?

I wonder how much WOTC will actually pick up off of the Blizzard bullshit. I’m guessing not much but judging by the threads in the Free Hong Kong forum, I’m betting some HS players quit for Magic. Seeing a popular stream roll on Blizzard would certainly help.
