Mind posting your brother's list, in a new topic maybe? Sounds fun.
Sent you a PM.

Atarka Sligh

I jammed couple of games using Purp's list above with my brother who was on the Zulaport sacrifice deck. Did not manage to win a single game, the lifegain and the swarm of tokens was just too much. :( Any tips for the matchup? Atarka's Command stops them from gaining life with Zulaport Cutthroat, bu...

I posted a list a page back that has been succesful for me if you want some food for discussion. Thanks. Looks like we both are fans of Tymaret. My old list is somewhere in this thread, it was using Spike Jesters over Ashley and swamps over Mutavaults. The changes I was thinking would make my list ...

After being on a holiday trip and not having played any magic for three weeks, I took PyroRed to a 3-1 finish at FNM. Last round I managed to beat the guy who has been dominating the shop with GR, so feeling pretty good. :) I feel a strong pull toward playing the black variant again, so that's what ...

Played BTE Red to disappointing 2-2 tonight.

Round 1: Esper Control 1-2
Round 2: Devotion Red 1-2
Round 3: Budget Esper Control 2-0
Round 4: Devotion Red 2-0

Nothing much to add, feels like I am stuck in a rut.

Could not get the RB variant to perform to my liking (if only the list it would perform as good as it looks...), so taking BTE Red to the Wednesday tournament. I am expecting lots of mono red and mono black, so Emily is definately better date than Ashley tomorrow.

We got GR/Naya/GW ramp and midrange in our meta and I like the blades against them. But now I feel it's the mono red that's giving me more trouble so testing the mixture of removal over the weekend.

@Elricity: I like hammer against control because of the haste it gives. And like you said, whip might be too slow against mono red decks. Changing 2 mortars into 2 flames might be good, though. Then I can kill emissary & firefist/satyr with one card.

RB is so bad against straight mono red :(
Got any tips for the matchup, zem? Or is it just hoping they don't have too many emissaries?

Augur of Bolas was "Scumbag Steve" or just "Steve". From recent ones I've called Polukranos "Pocahontas" a few times. Most other nicknames we have for cards are in Finnish and probably don't make much sense if you don't know the language/culture. Guess I could explain o...

Took BR variant to FNM and ended up with a bit disappointing 2-2. Both of my losses were to mono red decks. I used the same list I posted earlier in the thread with updated sideboard: [deck] Land: 4 Blood Crypt 4 Rakdos Guildgate 10 Mountain 4 Swamp Creature: 4 Rakdos Cackler 4 Firedrinker Satyr 4 Y...

Cut magma jet or shock vs mono B; they don't kill anything anyway. I was already going -4 shock, but I will try -2 jet to get in the 2 dreadbores in addition to the hammer/act package. Probably cutting 3rd jet then for Erebos against BW to blank lifegain from whip, paladin, and Obzedat. While walki...

Looks great actually. I'd be bringing in Dreadbore against MonoB as well since clearing away a Desecration Demon or Merchant and getting to add to the board in the same turn is a huge game. I'd also go 3x doom blade, 1x ultimate price since there is a small upside to the slightly different effect. ...

I've been charmed by Tymaret and the BR Pyro variant posted couple of pages back. I really want to take it out to FNM this week. Working on the sideboard, this is where I am at the moment: [deck]Land: 4 Blood Crypt 4 Rakdos Guildgate 10 Mountain 4 Swamp Creature: 4 Rakdos Cackler 4 Firedrinker Satyr...

Hi, I've been lurking this forum for a long time but haven't posted anything until now. Big thanks to zemanjaski for helping me with account issues (my account and IP got banned for some reason right after I registered). I took the following list to a top 8 finish on Theros Game Day. [deck]Land: 4 S...
