I've never played Boros Feather with reckless rage so, uh, yay? I mean, I can see why people loved it but I didn't want to spend wildcards on something rotating out.

Lost to monored aggro and a deck that played a ton of board wipes (wrath of kayas, doom foretold, planar cleansing, maybe a few more I don't remember) and enchantments and Danced them back.

When I did my run of the win every card event, my Golos Fields got rocked hard by a deck that just continually played Kaya's wrath, planar cleansing, doom foretold, oath of kaya, and other board wipers. And then they dance'd them back in twice, first time as creatures to knock me below 10 and second time as just enchantments but it was still enough.

qbert posted:That seems weird because Golos Fields has a great matchup against Dance. You usually don't have any non-token permanents to sacrifice, or if you do, they're not cards that matter. Usually it was due to timing. I'd get a bunch of zombies out and they'd wipe it, or I'd have to sac Golos, etc. Every time I was ready to swing in the next turn they'd clear my board on their turn or right before I went. A few times I had to clear my board in the process with Realm-Cloaked Giant. The short of it is that I rarely got a chance to actually attack them with much of anything except a Golos and a pair of zombies.

Zero VGS posted:This was my experience as well, Dance owned me. You see that Doom Foretold card and are like "is that supposed to be a threat?" but it's really the 5 billion Wraths clearing a path for Dance of the Manse. Yeah, I can definitely see how I could've altered the deck to play better but I have no idea how it's supposed to be a favorable matchup. Obviously luck is a factor but they play a few wishes and other spells to fish for the right answer but even without that, they were able to keep wiping my board and I just didn't have anything with haste to deal with it.

little munchkin posted:get multiple fields in play and suddenly they need to have a sweeper for every land drop you make. they cant kill you quickly and you run them out of sweepers before they can kill you with dance Fortunately/unfortunately it was the event. I don't have the actual wildcards or really the desire to play Golos Fields normally.

CharlieFoxtrot posted:Speaking of which, anyone looking forward to the second War of the Spark Novel?! It's loving hilarious how the flavor of War of the Spark going by cards seems to depict this prolonged but slow unraveling of Ravnica with tons of fighting, destabilization of Guilds, death of at least one Parun, and lots of civilian death, etc. And then it all takes place in just like one afternoon.

The optimist in me says that there's plans to unite Historic and Pioneer eventually, but there's too many sets between the start points at the moment and they don't want to make promises or have people have expectations when an ETA is so far off. But then you can just look at the state of the client and various issues and their priorities and who even knows.

Eej posted:There's like vague hints of story with the knights going out on some quest for... one of the kingdoms? and then there's Fairy Tale stuff along the way they gotta get through. The novel is kind of okay but the fairy tale stuff is basically stapled on even there. It's more a flavor of supernatural stuff rather than specific events. Like when weird magical things happen in Eldraine, instead of medieval horror ala Innistrad it's stuff that's a little more whimsical like a gingerbread man coming to life or a bunch of fairies play pranks on you but can easily be just as malicious as Innistrad's happenings. It's not Magic the Shrekening though.

Lutha Mahtin posted:Does Oko only show up at higher ladder levels? I don't see it very often, but I also only just made it to platinum rank a few days ago and I still face a lot of starter decks. I feel like once people hit plat they just experiment more. When people are serious about advancing, they're probably trying to use the most effective decks.

It's slightly worse than normal Momir because there's quite a few creatures who are literally nothing but 3/3s. Without the elking, at least their power/toughness could matter. Just gotta hope even more than before that you luck out.

It might not be top tier but Ilharg in brawl is fun since you can throw creatures with ETB triggers and on damage triggers for a lot of fun.

Oathsworn also has to attack each combat if able so it won't be blocking for long.

If you want to just get the event over with, goon suggestion of going with Elspeth and mulliganning for good hands holds true. It's Arena, people frequently concede if they feel like they can't turn things around because there's just another game around the corner. Except for once, you're the one with instant queues and they're the ones without.

Irony Be My Shield posted:Going back to cat chat it is really crazy how resilient the combo is, you can get your point of life drain and still dodge instant speed exile effects both on the board and in the yard. Cry of Carnarium is one of the only ways to exile the cat, and even that you can play around if you aren't using the cat to block. How's that work? The -2/-2 should take it out either way.
