Ban fields, ban golos, ban t3f, ban oko, ban island, give everyone every common and uncommon card and refund wild cards for owners of poo poo rares like awaken the erstwhile (still salty about opening 3 of these in a sealed)

Let's focus for a bit on something super good right now, which is brawl. Brawl just kicks rear end and is a massive breath of fresh air compared to standard. What commanders are you guys brewing?

While researching this very important topic I have discovered that I could turn all my lands into 5/5 elementals using Wakeroot Elemental or draw and cast my entire deck using Golos. Can also use living twister's activations to throw all my lands at them for 2 damage each. Can burn them down with skargan hellkite.

edit: ah ha! Simic Ascendancy!

What is my general strategy when playing as uw control vs simic, especially game 1? They seem to have just too many "can't let live or touch battlefield" threats. I can't counter everything and once they drop a cavalier or krasis it seems to be game over.

Frog guy is a reward for the brawl event that is going on. He is 10k gold plus 1 win

If you can't see the brawl event try scrolling the play menu they hosed up and I couldn't find it, had to get support.

As for the card, noxious made a great self mill meme deck for it.

Goon challenge: give your opponent a platinum angel!

thought of this yesterday and implemented it today but have only played 2 matches and I actually did it on the 2nd attempt, I gave him an angel using role reversal. And you know what the bastard did? He sacced the son of a bitch. Anyway long story short I ended up trading him a fluffy kitty (charmed stray, in deck for this reason) for his mayhem devil and let it ping him to death

Anyway historic owns. Next I'm gonna give someone plat angel then mill them so they can't ever leave me.

The new fastest way to grind daily wins is to simply pilot 5-Color niv into the Brawl queue and immediately reap multiple snap concessions.

For anyone wanting to quickly climb bo1 ranked I recommend the rakdos lurrus deck. So many people give up as soon as they see cat oven or when you claim the firstborn their only creature and sac it. It is a very fast agro deck so matches are quick. It chews up slower decks before turn 5 and goes about 50% versus RDW. I didn't have 4 kroxas but I had 1 and 3 robber of the rich, which also makes people rage quit.

Thanks! Nor sure I have the WCs for this but I'll see what I can put together. I said I'd never play CatOven but this might be an exception if the rest of the deck is aggro enough. I can't fathom how anyone thinks grinding people down slowly with cats and ovens is fun. I want to punch people in the dick hard and win on turn 4 or 5.

You could probably swap the mythics for other 1 or 2 drops. I have also only tried rakdos version, you can go all over the place with this because Lurrus is w/b

I'm curious as to why lurrus would be at risk of being banned. There is a shitload of graveyard wrecking cards that can be brought against it to nullify the recursion. I've even seen people compare it to Oko, the king of degeneracy. It isn't even close to a fun police card. I would be totally cool with a ban on cauldron familiar however because it is a lovely card that makes playing the game a chore.

witchy posted:

Obv slamming lurrus turn 3 every game isn't optimal, I was more referring to the fact that he's a fairly powerful recursion engine that is always available when you want/need him due to companion. Meanwhile any specific answer to him is going to require aggressive mulls that cut into win% vs the rest of the deck. He's definitely bannable in older formats (though restriction in vintage wont do much because he's already a 1 of that has an inbuilt tutor)

My thoughts are, if Lurrus becomes a big problem,:

the orzhov cerberus dog isn't that bad,
Cry of the carnarium is still a thing, ditto other exile spells in R/W/B
Tymaret is a thing
Grafidigger's cage is sideboardable
hushbringer is a thing

blah blah blah (other examples) and these cards aren't so narrowly focused as to be worthless against other decks. I think if Lurrus is as bad as people fear, the meta will shift against it fairly easily
