man it's almost like they wanted these eldrazi to possibly be playable without them printing absurd ramp or all the kiddies dying on turn four to red.

Tuskar Totemic has been pretty hit or miss for me. If we ran another 3-drop I'd be willing to accept this, but there are too many times where I need to hit something relevant to maintain board control because rando 3/2 is not doing it. LP mentioned Harvest Golem which I've somewhat liked. Going to k...

jsilv

Also everyone is still on Shadow Priests which I think is jank as fuck considering the meta, though I guess if you get divine shield guys it isn't absolutely the worst. Honestly tho it usually only comes up for me in the Priest mirror where I sometimes have to be careful about value Clerics.

jsilv

Cut Vol'jin and readded a Shadow Madness due to the infinite aggro. Deck is easily one of the best when you curve well, some of the mulligans are disgustingly bad.

jsilv

Deck seems very strong. One problem I've face when playing with it is that you're actually comically bad against Archamage Anotnidas. I've been running double SW:D for basically that reason. Shit is tilting when you're basically dominating and then get domed by quad FIreball. :flame: This deck is g...

jsilv

I think I actually like going back to Harvest Golem over Tank. There's a fair number of weapons (at least in the 5-1 meta) and tank dies to all the relevant ones except Bow. It also holds up slightly better on the draw if you coin it vs. Hunter, but obviously that's not a make or break.

I really disagree. The cards and play area of Hearthstone looks absolutely terrible, whereas that's the only part of MTGO that looks pretty decent.

I think you are the only person I've ever seen say that the HS play field is terrible.

NEW HEARTHSTONE CARDS, CHOO CHOO MOTHERFUCKERS! KIBLER CONVINCED THE HS DEVS TO ADD REAL DRAGONS TO THE GAME. https://scontent-dfw1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xtp1/v/t34.0-12/11868876_10204771683787296_511743059_n.jpg?oh=c682b8b3d524b242674fc725d437d64d&oe=55D0C468 https://scontent-dfw1-1.xx.fbcdn.n...

jsilv

shut them all down.

jsilv

Deck is gas. Only change I've made after 20 games was I swapped Owl with Dire Wolf bc of the low end meta. Not a lot of taunts, lots of times I have dumb 1/1's sitting around wanting to trade.

jsilv

If I had to try and a beat a playset of Kor Firewalker or Timely Reinforcements, then yeah, red would be easy to beat. There's no amazing anti-red cards right now, if the best they have is Cleric, Ram and Hornet Nest I think that's totally beatable. People need like 6-8 of those depending on their d...

jsilv

Nobody ever really brings that much hate for Mono Red and honestly 90% of the decks that are supposedly good against Red aren't. Hell a bunch of people think Kibler's GW deck is good vs. red. I actually tried to match out and it was pretty much the same as everything else, 'Oh, you have a bunch of g...

jsilv - is CFB really out of stock on Ensoul Artifact or did you guys pull your stock away in anticipation of a price increase? I'm not asking to demonize, I just want to know if there is a buyout going on. You guys, TCGPlayer, eBay, and SCG are all out. Sold out. TBF, it's not like we were sitting...

jsilv

Mono Red is fucking great and not a single Atarka's Command variant finished 6-4 or better at the PT. So as far as that goes, I think the debate is settled unless we're forced back to the token generating builds. For right now, early game via one-drops, then forcing through damage via Prowess, Eidol...

jsilv

How would you guys sb vs abzan rally? Mono Red smashes Rally game one, basically the only way you can lose is if they get a ton of value off a Lili or you suicide attack your squad into Resto Angel (AKA: Company). G2/3 can be real if they have Arashin Cleric / Order and Hornet Nest. If they stall f...

Lucas Siow and PV win GP's? Best weekend of Magic coverage. <3

jsilv

And PV wins his local GP, because a deck he's a master with is finally good again.

jsilv

I'd assume it's either monstore or pack warz? A store called Gameology. It's the one I talked about few weeks back about fixing the winner for Game Day. No one goes there without a bad experience. Today they had a PPTQ and my Facebook feed is flooded with people that went and talking about all the ...

jsilv

How else are you going to profitably block literally nothing in Standard? lol hay, look, they didn't reprint birds of paradise. nothing i can do. :rofl: How much do you guys think the reprinting of goblin guide will affect its price? I want to buy them but not sure if it worth waiting to see if the...

jsilv

Tried GerryT's Whip deck, thought Atarka was cute, but not particularly better than anything else. Deck felt soft to Esper Dragons and light on action if it didn't have a Sidisi or Whip going. Jamming a full-on Deathmist Raptor package against midrange and Stratus Dancer to gain some points back aga...

jsilv

til something about bears. thanks Starbucks!

jsilv

Actually, Atarka Red is well positioned against Esper Dragons, while not autodying to Abzan Control and Abzan Megamorphs. Did I get the matchups incorrectly? I would say none of those are favorable for red, which kind of kills a lot of reason to play it. The g2/3 of Esper vs. Red is pretty favorabl...

jsilv

That's fair. I was mostly thinking about how Mardu has no scary threats against decks and that Haven helps the weakness of having no end game. Like the deck LP linked too has 2 OS and a few PW's. Just not a lot of gas there in the long game when Esper can still trade 1-for-1 and then Dig or Opportun...

jsilv

Have you guys considered cheating and just jamming Ojutai w/ Havens? You can easily minimize either your white color commitments if you go light on creatures and commit to black + red removal + doom. Or if you go heavy on white, cut down the MD red to just Thunderbreak + Doom + Outpost Siege and sid...

jsilv

did the last modern masters inflate prices or bring them down? Obviously it should bring them down some, but goyf is still at an unreasonable price. The majority of the rares permanently dropped, any of the chase uncommons that gor reprinted lost min. 50% of their value. Mythics dropped for about a...

jsilv

FWIW, decks that beat Esper: GW / GR Collected Company decks Old Mardu decks that took out Chained to the Rocks and realized the rest of their deck is still scary vs. control and runs four Outpost Siege while they have 0 Vault. BR Control that are basically Mardu, but with more Dragons and less horr...

Magic should be a living card game.

Why do you hate having a thriving tournament scene?

jsilv

Are the fakes still insanely glossy? They are still glossy, less so, but still noticeable on some. Also the fakes quality from set to set vary wildly with some really stupid errors on certain cards, somebody tried to send us a set of noticeably miscut Ulamog and Emrakuls. Which is dumb already cons...

do they make standard chinese proxies? I could use some They haven't started doing any of the Standard stuff yet, outside of fetches. It's also v. unlikely they'll start on Standard stuff since it'd mean updating the presses and doing a bunch of waves w/ the new holo sticker. Better margins to stic...

jsilv

That estimate seems suspect. For MODO? It's pretty much a lock barring a massive correction at the RPTQ's this weekend or some bot dealer undercutting everyone. I meant IRL. Also, aren't MODO tix not 1-to-1 in USD? Something like 70 cents on the dollar or ? .95 is the usual rate for tickets. IRL th...

Dragonlord Ojutai has gone up 10tix to 40 on MODO in the past 3 days. Ugh. It's gonna be a 50 dollar mythic in Standard for a bit at this rate.
