Dies to Removal

I prefer the other part of my post.

P.S. posted my current Vintage deck in the Vintage forums. Not sure if anybody plays or watches the format, but ideas/input are of course welcome.

Not a fan of RUG in general, but I think Temur Ascendancy is one of the absolute best cards in the set to build around.

It's like a fires that feeds itself.

[deck]4 Elvish Mystic
4 Rattleclaw Mystic
4 Sylvan Caryatid
4 Goblin Rabblemaster
4 Savage Knuckleblade
4 Polukranos, World Eater
4 Stormbreath Dragon
2 Soul of Shandalar

4 Temur Ascendancy
3 Xenagos, the Reveler

23 Lands[/deck]

If you want to go...deeper

[deck]4 Elvish Mystic
4 Generator Servant
4 Rattleclaw Mystic
2 Boon Satyr
2 Fanatic of Xenagos
4 Savage Knuckleblade
4 Polukranos, World Eater
4 Stormbreath Dragon
3 Soul of Shandalar

4 Temur Ascendancy
2 See the Unwritten[/deck]

It's basically Jund monsters with Domri being raplaced by ascendancy.

This is also the shell that would gladly welcome a single x-spell.

While my inclination would be to build a value based planeswalker based deck with fatties, ascendancy very clear says creatures matter while simultaneously being naturally advantaged vs. a walker based strategy.

I'm a seasonal brewer, and I'm in season.

[deck]4 Tormented Hero
4 Gnarled Scarhide
3 Pain Seer
3 Mardu Skullhunter
4 War-Name Aspirant
4 Goblin Rabblemaster
3 Mogis's Marauder
3 Herald of Torment

3 Lightning Strike
4 Stoke the Flames

2 Sarkhan Dragonspeaker

4 Bloodstained Mire
3 Temple of Malice
4 Mountain
3 Mana Confluence
9 Swamp[/deck]

The idea of this deck is sweet, though the stokes should probably be downfalls, I'd ideally want 2/3 more 1 drops, and I should probably just play thoughtseize. Mogis warhound+rabblemaster seems strong though...

I do think Temur Monsters will replace Jund Monsters.

I'm totally interested in playing Sarkhan Stormbreath Dragon

Inspired by mono-red sneak and show, I'm wondering if I can make a modern deck that plays rabblemaster on turn 1/2 consistently. Cards we're looking to jam:

Rabblemaster
mox opal
galvanic blast
simian spirit guide
springleaf drum
maybe greater gargadon

I can see something like kuldotha red with blue for ensoul artifact actually.

[deck]4 Memnite
4 Ornithopter
4 Goblin Rabblemaster
4 Simian Spirit Guide
4 Greater Gargadon
4 Galvanic Blast
4 Ensoul Artifact
4 Kuldotha Rebirth
2 Thoughtcast
4 Mox Opal
4 Springleaf Drum
4 Chromatic Star
2 Shrapnel Blast

4 Darksteel Citadel
4 Steam Vents
4 Blinkmoth Nexus
2 Scalding Tarn[/deck]

Decks missing something. Stoke the flames is probably good in this deck if I can fit the mana requirements.

At what point is this not just worse than playing actual Affinity?

I mean, it even loses to the exact same hate that Affinity does. I actually do kind of like Simian Spirit Guide though, that card in conjunction with Blood Moon just shits all over control decks.

Deck was missing signal pest. Retooling.

[deck]4 Memnite
4 Ornithopter
4 Goblin Rabblemaster
4 Simian Spirit Guide
4 Greater Gargadon
4 Signal Pest
4 Galvanic Blast
4 Ensoul Artifact
4 Kuldotha Rebirth
4 Mox Opal
4 Springleaf Drum
2 Shrapnel Blast

4 Darksteel Citadel
4 Steam Vents
4 Blinkmoth Nexus
2 Scalding Tarn[/deck]

At what point is this not just worse than playing actual Affinity?

Deck is probably strictly worse then affinity, but I'm protecting my investment on rabblemasters by exploring there power across the board.

I could see doing that if you were Tom Ross, but...

I am the best player in my state without a pro point...yeah that sounded pathetic even to me

I am the best player in my state without a pro point...yeah that sounded pathetic even to me

Pro points are overrated anyway, SCG points are much more useful.

Im the best player in my house.

I'm the best player in my group of friends, but the bar isn't that high. Talking real friends, not just random people at the lgs.

After much deliberation it was determined that I was simultaneously the manliest and the girliest person in the group which is an odd revelation, not sure if good or bad.

How do I only have four thousand posts?

Replace the 2 with a 3 and you're me

I haven't done that bad at FNM in a while. 2 weeks ago, I took the exact same list (which hadn't been revised since February) and took third. Then somehow I got turn 3 tron in 3 games of 4 playing mono blue in practice games...

I haven't played at an FNM in almost six months now. Feels good man.

0-2 drop.

Fml.

At least sold 8 rabblemaster for 32 bucks.

#hashbrown

Anyone down to play some vidya games and Skype?

I was never into the fringe deck scene, though I can appreciate it when the deck is good and particularly sweet.

Purps deck for the WMCQ qualifies as do some of Hams decks.

LP do you mean Pedro's or Purp? If you meant the latter could you link it? If not then I agree Pedros is a GREAT deck builder its a shame not many people here recognizes him because he doesn't focus on U or R.

I didn't go to FNM last night, and I'm glad I didn't. There were 10 people for Modern tonight and apparently it's been dropping monthly. LGS owner stated he will probably be scrapping Modern altogether, leaving us with all Standard FNM. FML. It's bad enough that there are no Legacy events here. Now no Modern? Sometimes I really hate living in the backwoods.

The community here is great but the population is just too small to support the more expensive formats.

But how will you x-2 if you don't show up for FNM!?

this just in: Khaos is the real red scrumper.

he just forgot to switch logins

I honestly can't remember the last time I lost more than one match at FNM.

Will the real redscumper please stand up, please stand up.

#Khaoscrumper

In a sudden twist, it turns out Khaos was a gimmick of Spam all along, designed to form the FoS so that there would always be a steady stream of troll fodder

An act of trolling years in the making that will forever live in infamy

#nextlevelscrump

We're all just King Spam gimmicks!
