Dies to Removal

MisterMet

Phoenix's cost means I don't want to cast it until I have 5 mana just so I can have mana open for removal or Skullcrack. And I really don't want to see multiple copies of it in hand.

YP has been far more useful early and late game.

MisterMet

LP: I just got beaten by Purp in 3 games mainly due to Peak Eruption. Game 2 it set me back a turn and game 3 I had to use a Boros Charm to save my mountain. On the other hand I did win round 1 thanks to Blind Obedience in g3 after my opponent used two Peak Eruptions that game. But the early tempo l...

MisterMet

A bit late here but I just got a chance to try out the updated list (with a few differences in the sideboard - no Peak Eruptions or Toil//Trouble) and went 3-0 in an 8-man, sweeping my matches against Black Devotion, Black Devotion and Esper Control. The extra scrylands and change in strategy (holdi...

MisterMet

Legion's initiative wipes your own tokens. You'd play it for the +1 attack power. Not enough creatures, YP or no for that to be worth it. The deck I was running it in had sixteen creatures (four of cackler, zealot, phoenix and dragon) and there wasn't an issue, though I might have been very lucky t...

MisterMet

If the plan against control and black devotion is to up your creature count to fifteen (along with Assemble the Legion against black devotion) then what about Legion's Initiative as a one-of in the sideboard? It helped a lot against those decks when I was playing Boros aggro pre-BNG since it would s...

MisterMet

So when is the best time to sell LEDs? In half a year?

If Vintage Masters is this summer then I'm guessing the price will start to go up a few months after that.

MisterMet

I really need an explanation of how a deck with 22 lands runs 3 Stormbreath Dragon, 2 Chandra, Pyromaster and 4 Warleader's Helix. In an 8-man there isn't enough data to draw a conclusion, but cutting a land and adding higher drops seems wrong to me fundamentally. I can only imagine that you were r...

MisterMet

Finally beat hexproof and my opponent tilts (defeated him g1 with Young Pyromancer and Helix and g3 by casting Glare on his Unflinching Courage).

Not sure how he thought I was trying to be a dick there

MisterMet

P.S. Do these long post with explanation help? Or should I save everyone time and just stop? Please continue!I've been finding them very useful!:) Also, I've found ensnaring bridge to be great against decks like Zoo, Soul Sisters and Merfolk (especially here since they don't have any anti artifact ...

MisterMet

I should get those last two Scalding Tarns since waiting this long has only caused the price to increase even more. Which two lands should this replace? I'm thinking a mountain and Blood Crypt. Also at the end of game 3 of round 3 I had an uncracked fetchland in hopes that I might topdeck a Searing ...

MisterMet

First I lose every 8-man I enter today 1-2, facing blue devotion or hexproof each time. Then I proceed to win a modern 8-man playing Living End for the first time.

Makes complete sense.

Up to 23 QP's now.

MisterMet

Lost in round 1 of an 8-man to Jund Monsters 1-2. My opponent was running that hexproof boar and Gift of Orzhova. Plus he managed to get his Poulakranos killed by making it monstrous to fight my Spark Trooper :stupid: I decided to try out Zemanjaski's list for another 8-man and destroyed mono-black ...

MisterMet

Yeah, I was hoping that you wouldn't have that third dissolve for the dragon. Actually, was it three dissolves off of the Jace's? I thought they only revealed two. And now I realized that I made a huge mistake game 2 by not holding onto the helix for Archangel of Thune (I had two dragons in hand at ...

MisterMet

And got destroyed. I need more practice against U/W control. Both times I played against really good control players I lost 0-2.

Good game, Kait!

MisterMet

And game 3 for the final match in round 1 is finally over after 20 minutes.

MisterMet

The way my internet connection is at the moment it might not even matter if we're facing each other next round since I might just get disconnected!

MisterMet

Well, going to now see if 15 can get me in!

MisterMet

And then he adds Eidolon of Countless Battles followed by casting Boros Charm later than he needed to.

I don't think my opponent realizes that I'm already on tilt!

MisterMet

Facing hexproof running Forced Adaptation.

State of mind: same as before.

MisterMet

Kait's moved up to 4 while I dropped to 8. Really need a win here!

MisterMet

Is that how it works?

Was hoping that would be in the top 8.

MisterMet

And just lost in game 3 to Thesbian stage, a 2/1 chainwalker and Asssemble the Legion.

Current state of mind.

MisterMet

And guess who I'm facing!

MisterMet

Yeah, that actually does sound bad

Currently in second place!

Hopefully 5 wins will be enough to get into the top 8.

MisterMet

lost game 3. fucking horrible, he was running the worst deck i have seen in probably 3 weeks.

What did he run?

MisterMet

4-0 after beating mono-black. Had an embarrassing play in game 1 where I cast Skullcrack to counter his Grey Merchant and then decided to cast Helix on the same turn.

The first non-Mutavault creature my opponent saw was Viashino Firstblade in game 3.

MisterMet

Yeah, they weren't that useful in the games that I sided them in.

MisterMet

LazerBurn, I'm currently running this version of burn but with a second Anger and two Spark Troopers in the sideboard instead of the Satyr Firedancers.

MisterMet

3-0 in standard premier after beating Naya Aggro. Lost game 2 because I wasn't expecting Rampager onto Voice along with a Boros Charm double strike.

Is this still going to be 7 rounds?

MisterMet

The premier event has restarted!

MisterMet

At least the crash was at the beginning of the premier event.

While Flame-Wreathed Phoenix could be a nice against GR (being a 4 drop is huge if we're trying to race them) I also found Stormbreath Dragon to be great against control and rogue matchups. Just won another 8-man. Round 1 vs GR Monsters Game 1: He mulled to 5. Chained his Rampager and overloaded Mor...

MisterMet

I'm currently in another 8-man and just defeated a GR Monsters deck 2-0. Having Stormbreath Dragon makes the matchup much easier since it provides me a nice late game beat stick. This gives me the option of using burn on his creatures and planeswalkers instead of trying to race them.
