Did terribly at the event(went x-2) because I played Hordeling outburst vs. hall of triumph which you should NEVER do. Updated the deck slightly today which mostly made it worse, but before my buddy crushed the tourney with his mardu deck, we deck teched and rebuilt it to this beast: [deck]4 Firedr...

I am really close to building both of these decks. I am going to HAVE to pull the trigger and get Scavenging Oozes and Stomping Grounds. I've been playing Sealed the past five weeks, so I have some good trade stuff, but I haven't been trading much. I still need 3 Stormbreath Dragon, 4 Garruk, Caller...

I got all of the cards for the Infect deck except Vines of Vastwood today. Those should come in tomorrow. I'll be playing Thursday night. Played TNModern. 8 people. 3 Rounds. R1 2-1 vs UrzaTron. R2 1-2 vs MeliraPod. R3 1-2 vs UR Control of some sort. My order of Vines of Vastwood didn't come in yes...

I'm starting to warm up to the idea of Deadbridge Goliath - it's still pretty beefy like Polukranos without the Legendary clause and has synergy with Experiment, Sage, and Witchstalker. Before I go too far down the rabbit hole with this, though, exactly how necessary is Polukranos? In my green devo...

Yea, I've never been a fan of Militant. It always seem to just be an enabler for evolve. At least with a dork you get value out of it if it sticks around, even late. Militant is outclassed late game.

Is Caryatid better than Gyre Sage? I like that the Caryatid doesn't die to spot removal, but Gyre Sage can potentially be a lot more mana generation and is a threat in its own right. Also, with Black spot removal everywhere and probably relying on the new Infest to handle creature swarms, shouldn't...

After pulling a Thassa and a Master of Waves in my Sealed pool and a second Thassa plus the FNM promo Friday, I am missing 3 Strombreath, 1 Sylvan Caryatid and 4 Domri Rade. My LGS had a promotion for every sealed event you played before the pre-release you got $1 off each pre-release you register f...

I just want Rubblebelt Raiders to be good.

It probably won't ever be.

Stupid Rubblebelt Raiders.

toddulent

soooooo Both Hammer of Purphoros and Xenegos, God of Revels can give Rubblebelt Raiders haste, and Raiders seems like a decent Devotion enabler. Might this thing actually be somewhat playable? PLEASE?!? I certainly hope so. I am all-in on RG and I have a set itching to get to play. Also, I want ALL...

I'm hoping to do the same with my UR Delver list, working my way toward Volcanic Islands, Forces, and Stifles as funds and trades allow. Right on. There was a post on gatheringmagic recently. He took a Modern deck, ported it to Legacy, then ported it to Vintage. I liked the idea, but there was no w...

I read this post and really loved the idea. I just ordered the cards for the Mono-Green Infect. I did a little digging around and found it can be ported to Legacy with a few changes and roughly $240.00 ($200 of which goes to 4x Berserk in the main and 2x Umezawa's Jitte in the side.). Here is the li...

Annnnd I just realized redthirst's sig pic is a mooning and not a moon. Awesome.

Hey guys, I am trying to find info on the Pyromancer's Gauntlet deck. I don't have quite all of the cards needed (2 Chandra and 2 Mutavault), but I am close enough I can make it work. I want to read up on how to play it and I thought maybe someone knew exactly where it is.

EDIT: Found it.

toddulent

I have been trying to find something I can run without Boros Reckoner, Chandra, Pyromaster and Mutavault since I don't have any and won't for a few weeks. I tried running a BTE-less haste variant with Rakdos Shredfreak and found him underwhelming. Looking at Khaospawn's theoretical list (plus having...

toddulent

Mutavault for days. It allows you to play around Verdict/Anger, blocks Blood Baron, gets in extra points of damage, and has additional utility against aggro in a race. I won several games last night because my opponent was playing a devotion deck with only one Mutavault, and I saw mine regularly (3...

I was at 22 lands with a Fanatic build. Just to test, I upped the land count to 24 and cut 1 Magma Jet and 1 Fanatic. First opener had 4 lands, 2 GHC and 1 Phoenix. I drew into another Phoenix, then an Ash Zealot. Second goldfish, 3 lands, 1 Cackler, 1 GHC, 1 Magma Jet, 1 Phoenix. Drew 4th land. Jus...

toddulent

Dragon is lowest priority. I'd get the Reckoners, then play a vaultless Fanatic build to win your way into the Vaults and Chandras.

Thanks, Helios. That's what I figured.

I am missing some key cards that are limiting my ability to play the decks I would like to play. I need some advice for what I should pick up ASAP. I do not have any of the following. Boros Reckoner Chandra, Pyromaster Mutavault Stormbreath Dragon Should I pick up a playset of Reckoner first? At lea...

toddulent

I wish I had Chandras and Mutavaults. Not having them is seriously limiting my ability to play what I want.

I played against Jund last night with the list I posted above. I didn't have a problem with it. If I had Hammers in the main he would have been toast a lot quicker.

toddulent

I don't have access to Boros Reckoner at the moment. I'm working on it, though. I value your advice highly, so I'm going to make those changes. Plus, I miss GHC in there quite a bit. Thanks for the suggestions.

toddulent

I tested this last night against a Jund deck and it killed him on T6. I just need to get some feedback to make it as efficient as possible. I'm trying to decide if this or a BTE build would be better. [deck] Creatures (28) 4 Firedrinker Satyr 4 Legion Loyalist 4 Rakdos Cackler 4 Ash Zealot 4 Rakdos ...

Oh, I don't have access to that all of a sudden. I did before. Not sure why it's gone now.

toddulent

Where is the most current Pyro Red list? I'm thinking of testing it myself and I can't find it.

toddulent

I do. That's where I got the figures. Subsequent testing had no problems with 4 mana T4. Just that that one game.

@Zooligan: 5 four-drops and 1 five-drop on 23 lands? You're a brave one. @todd: You too, with your 4 drops and 20 lands. You're right. The probability of hitting turn 4 curve with 20 lands is 44%, with 22 is 54% and 23 is 59%. Hitting 4 turn 4 is really necessary for Fanatic to be of most use when ...

Can someone please explain to me why theses fools on Sally are running BTE AND Ash Zealot. the more i read from other sites and from pros who don't normally play red the more i feel red is the most misunderstood color on the color pie.

^I'd drop two Legion Loyalists for two more Mountains (or Mutavaults if you have access to any).

I don't have Mutavaults, b...

So, I came back from a MtG hiatus, lost internet at home (due to my roommate brother not paying internet bill), and then being sick for 3 weeks. I've been helping my other roommate get back into playing. He played a Maze's End Turbo Fog last week and went 2-2. I played RDW and went 3-1. I stumbled g...

All this Modern talk depresses me. NO ONE at my locals cares about Modern. Every Thursday they have maybe two people show up.

Here is what I will be running at FNM tonight. Made some significant changes to what I threw together. Chandra+Young Pyromancer+Gutter Snipe are too good together. This is, of course, based on cards I have available now. Will probably upgrade the spells soon. [deck]Land 24 24 Mountain Creatures 12 4...

Thanks, Medicated. I need to get a set now.

Question. Does Chandra's ultimate trigger Young Pyromancer once or three times?
