So tell us how your day was, Khaos. I won a 5K playing Mono Red Scrumper. Drunk. All 11 rounds. I'm glad I won because the beer at the hotel there was fucking expensive. And then I proceeded to get more drunk and howl Bohemian Rhapsody during the hotel bar karoake, where I told a bunch of old peopl...

This is precisely why they are such a good idea from a design perspective. There will be almost zero demand for these outside of Standard and EDH, much like the Temples from Theros block, which will keep the price of the regular art editions down.

Played the deck today to a second place finish at a local tournament. Lost to Twin in the finals. Lost game 1 to a main deck Dispell. Lost game 2 to drawing four answers to the combo and no action.

But honestly, I think the missing piece is ramp. Deck should be green for Heirarch and Birds. Then at that point you wonder why you aren't playing Kiki Chord.

Watching coverage from last week makes me rage from how bad these red players are.
Rx Burn
Well, some bad matchups get a LOT better and almost favorable. Affinity feels stronger to me, but I don't have a large enough sample size to say definitively that it's better. You're also less susceptible to the typical Burn hate cards, and I'd bet the percentage you gain from that is roughly equiva...

Maybe it's because I've had to carry a bag of life-saving medication for my entire life, but I just can't imagine having my deck stolen in any way that doesn't involve physical robbery. Some people (like me) are just a lot more paranoid about losing stuff than others so they're naturally more atten...

There is no better feeling than watching someone go all in on Inkmoth Nexus with Ravager only to get blown out by Atarka's Command with reach mode.

Bitch you better get back on MODO. The changes are actually working out well minus the bad DE value.

Yeah, the new changes have pushed everyone out of the DEs and into the 8 mans, along with the fact that boosters are a lot more scarce currently given that fewer are being passed out as prizes.
Rx Burn
Yeah, you have to take your lumps as a Burn player and just concede that some matchups will be borderline hopeless. It's still a great deck.
Rx Burn
I like the meta analysis they did, but I wouldn't take it as gospel. For instance, Grixis Control is actually highly favored against Affinity, and high level pilots of both decks would agree with that statement. Some of the data gets a little shaky because Twin and Delver sometimes get thrown into t...

scrubbed because bloom is unwinnable This is precisely why I didn't play Burn at my PPTQ and don't like it in general right now.

With the 75 you posted, probably not. Definitely not on the draw.
Just curious: what is your postboard plan on the play and draw?

Rx Burn
Depends on play vs draw and board state. If I've played a one drop, I'm definitely jamming Eidolon after attacks. If I have two in hand, I'm jamming. If I have two more one drop creatures to play, I'm doing that instead because swarming the board is more effective against them. This forces them to m...

If those are the big four, you really don't need six maindeck Skullcrack effects. Affinity, Grixis, and Twin won't be gaining life on you, and Jund will be the only deck doing it postboard with Feed the Clan. If you are worried about that, run a couple of Skullcrack in the board. The key to beating ...

I'm coming around on maindeck Lightning Helix over Flame Javelin. Probably need to go to 12 fetches too.
All that said, I'll likely be on Grixis Control since I feel it gives me the best game against both fair and unfair decks.

I've just been so unimpressed with Ojutai when I've played with him. I've had a lot more success with Ashcloud Phoenix. Ojutai has always seemed to come down a turn too late for me.
