Anyone have thoughts on a viable, flash-in-the-pan shell that can run Drown in Sorrow, HDF, Anger, Archfiend of Depravity and enchantment hate? I know that I'm going to be seeing GW Devotion, red-based aggro and Naya Walkers...Jund would be interesting but the mana seems too ridiculous. Much of thi...

I'm looking at Anger as well, but I think RRBBw is possibly the answer over RRWWb. Chained is going to lose even more ground now, as enchantment hate is now a mainboard imperative between Mastery, Outpost and Chained (not to mention Courser). I'm suggesting letting go of the current RW shell...again...

I'm waaayyy out of the loop (and trying to slog back), but the GW deck seems like it would be susceptible to a controlling Mardu build--Thoughtseize to break their curve, spot/chain removal, then drop a dragon that they can't interact with G1. After board they still are left mostly with conditional ...

Awesome discussion, gentlemen...I miss this a BUNCH. Hopefully things are leveling to where I can actually be around regular-like again. I will tell you that I'm absolutely intimidated...I'm going with RW on the Magic Cruise as my Standard deck and have a great chance of having to play it (unless pl...

I'm just theorycrafting here, but this card design is one of the most solid I've seen yet. The card does pretty much everything a tempo player wants--it buys time and can become a steamroller of CA if left unchecked. No, it's not going to come down and stop the onslaught of an aggressive deck--unles...

Thanks guys! Regrettably I'm working and sleeping the day away for the most part, but I think my daughter is plotting something as I ran onto a cake mix box that I think she meant for me to not see...

Went 3-0 then ID'd in the last round so we could both cash to 7 packs as I needed to get home to nap before work. Went white, got a decent pull to play it primary, then went black for my second as I had excellent synergy for a life gain/drain deck. I was really, really tempted to try to push into bl...

Very true--MotF may not be viable in this Standard, but then, neither was DD in the Standard into which it was released. The card is not, however, inherently unplayable...the question will be whether there is a deck for it that mitigates the drawback. I'm actually more concerned with the fact that M...

Happy to see the functional reprint of O Ring (though I'm sad over the fact that it means my altered full-art O Rings are languishing in a binder), but not happy about the fact that it gives Esper Control another ubiquitious tool. The modular Act of Treason is also pretty spicy...in long, grindy boa...

Yeah NBW...I know...Voice really is the perfect card to be playing in Pod. The deck is insane to begin with, and that card is just VALUE in its role there. I would love to get another 'Crats-style deck going, but I don't know if my heart will be in it without Falkenrath Aristocrat ...I fell hard for...

FWIW, I haven't played Red Aggro in a tourney since December, and if I'm being honest with myself, that was a midrange deck(MDU's RW midrange deck that JS cashed Nagoya with), so it was actually more like October when I was on Pyro Red. I think I'm either switching to AIR or some Athero's deck. I r...

Elements swords were utterly busted, off-the-curve powerful...no equipment is going to compare favorably with them. That being said, Godsend--while very pretty--is not likely worth the trouble. Its casting cost ties it strongly to white, it has no protection/evasion, and it is totally chumped by any...

Reckoner is such a fun Johnny card...I'm gonna miss it when it rotates. One could possibly build a red midrange deck to shoot the combo, but keeping Reckoner alive and on the board long enough to set it up--eh. Still, Dictate of the Twin Gods is going to be fun in direct-damage decks, if not Standar...

I agree with you LK that the card in a vacuum is freakin' nuts; I just don't know if it has a viable home right now. I loved Bloodgift Demon , but the various metas held him down to being only fringe-playable. Then again, we've seen only a few cards of the set thus far...Izzet could be up to get som...

I absolutely LOVE the flavor/design of Squelching Leeches...a true black card. I don't love that it's in the 4 slot, but then it is at uncommon which means it will make for some fun in Limited.
