Dies to Removal

all in all, very solid list Jamie. I don't really like Narset with so much dudes. what about a 1x siege instead? observations and opinions asked 1- stratus dancer I like it a lot but i suspect will end being too cute or greedy. 2- ashcloud phoenix versus ojutai versus exemplars versus mentor. AAAAAR...

Ok, finished third on a 10-men Gameday going monored. Deck was the same as the Boss' one, with: -3 hammerhand (haven't found them in time) +3 searing blood -1 Arena Athlete (same as above) +1 Birber's Purse -4 Firedrinker Satyr +2 Goblinslide, + 2 Valley Dasher -1 Denizen + another Valley Dasher Ori...

That "prevent all damage" clause seems worth the splash...

As I was suspecting, tomorrow I'll have to work as my LGS deals Standard, no FNM for me this week. I'll keep on brewing & theorycrafting since i'll be free like a bird as Gameday come. And I'll start with monored. Doomwake is.....fuck, man. That thing sucks. I'm somewhat tempted to shove a 3-of ...

Hi Platypus! I like that deck, BUT the 4 temples. Since I'm not testing it, I have to ask... Are you losing tempo in critical turns?
I would be TERRORized to open an hand with only temples in an aggro deck.

That's inconvenient, since I'm stubborn too (and refuse to get the MCs.)

excellent work! how as been ride down against control? I assume everybody is playing at least some creatures in their decks these days. A rules doubt: if you have a White soldier token and a red soldier tokens, the die both from things like Echoing Truth ? The only difference that i could see is 1-2...

@ Khaos: Since I was often a victim of overtime work, I can really understand your irritation. That said, I really like your list, very solid, seems finalized. I'm an Hammer of Purp enthusiast, since I've been cursed with a manaflood -aura, but your deck does not need it I believe. I realize there m...

Fate Foretold is quite a pet card of mine, but remember that will not work as we like it against Anger of the Gods nor End Hostilities (correct me if I'm wrong) Second list seems more interesting for me. But I don't like the morph dude at cmc 2, Horde Ambusher , since for obtaining his effect you wo...

Thx Playtipus!
Yes it's legendary. But I've noticed that Sligh variants with two HoT are already popping. I'll start testing with one

answering to biadetic: I'm more noob than you on aggro matter, but i would add: 1- beware the wraths at 3 mana: anger of the gods, the black one "all creatures get -2\-2". and also bile blight at cmc 2 could swipe multiples. So --> diversify threats, if chance arise 2- against decks that c...

Dear Red Mages, I've decided to go with crimson mana for this standard, and I've finally decided to stop lurking. Thx LP, MDU, Zem, Purp and all the others for the precious insights. Last season I've settled on a rogue-ish UWR pyroburn deck that gave me a lot of satisfactions (missed top8 at a PTQ e...

Greetings, collegues, I'm a humble red apprentice from Italy and after a lot of lurkin' and brewin' I finally played at a PTQ yesterday. Probably I will not be able to attend to other PTQs so I decided it should be right to register in and offer my insights, I also wanted to say Hello! to everyone a...
