At that point, I would probably drop Bloodsoaked Champion as well. Not comfortable with awkward colored 1-drops with out current manabase. Seeker is ok though, though we can't really proc Prowess too much.

Christen

Red-based also looks to be good. I've been trashed by other aggro decks and for the fact that I have 8 creatures that can't block. So I went back to the Warrior list and introduced tapped lands since turn 1 isn't as important as before (also I lack one Bloodstained Mire) and to lessen the life loss ...

Christen

I know this is the Mono red thread, but what improvements are possible if we splash white? I could see Seeker of the Way and Ride Down in the deck. Maybe not the Seeker since we'll need more white sources to reliably cast him turn 2.

Christen

First of all, yes we know three-color aggro decks are bad right now because of the mana base. However, I believe there's a future for Mardu aggro. In essence, this build is black aggro splashing red and white for high powered cards in Mardu. This is where I ended up right now: [deck] Creatures 4 Blo...

Christen

I opened another Windswept Heath on my Khans fat pack.

Christen

I'm pretty sure we discussed this already but how much is too many tapped lands in a 24-land aggro deck?

Christen

Yep got one of each and an extra Flooded Strand and Windswept Heath. Value of box is around double.

Christen

I opened this box

Christen

I'm gonna run with Butcher and then proceed to get trashed by my teammate's Ensoul deck.

Christen

Ride Down is a good card.

So what was the tell on that particular Advent of the Wurm player?

>three fetch-lands
>"So not a bad haul."

That is the biggest understatement of the week for me so far.

Christen

Just don't play Sultai because worst deck to make for a PR.

Christen

3-1 with Mardu on my PR and a bit disappointed that my only loss at the last round was due to flood. I mean, how can you lose with two Butchers, as much Act of Treasons you can use, and a bunch of token generators? And also Sarkhan. So overall loot from my PR+price packs: 2 Butcher of the Horde (1 f...

Christen

There's always Modern.

Christen

Savage Knuckleblade is a card so watch out for that. Herald of Anafenza can take over a game paired with Butcher. Butcher of the Horde for 4,2$? Why the hell Rattleclaw mystic costs 5$ low? Go get your Butchers before they spike in price. Rattleclaw is cheap because it's a buy-a-box promo I believe.

Christen

Thats where a lot of us are but it's pretty clunky. I also think it's a mistake to no play a couple Tymaret / raiders spoils. We should probably make a thread for developing that archetype. We should, so we could make adjustments and such. Although IMO Tymaret doesn't make the cut unless you are he...

Happy Birthday DTS. It's been quite the good times.

Thanks for the referral Alex. I'll check the next time I can FB.

Christen

If there are freelance web devs here, any idea how much I should charge for something that involves a PayPal gateway?

Christen

Congratulations Zem!! You are representing Australia right?

Christen

How about Utter End?

Christen

I just want to play a tier 1 UR deck.

Christen

You could probably try a sideboard that transform into aggro since they'll be siding in their negates and siding out a number of mass removal.

Christen

Might as well list what happened in my WMCQ. Finished the whole tournament since I had nothing better to do for the day. Overall result is 5-4-1. I've used Matt Sperling's list with 4 Skullcracks main and the last Helix on board. My losses were from GW Aggro, UW Control, Mono Black Devotion, and UW ...

Christen

Did bad in wmcq. Shitty 5-4-1, but finished the event anyway for points. It sounds like making an excuse but the majority of my losses are getting mana screwed.

Christen

Finished 3-1 with burn last night. Those Dancers are just way too good.

Christen

WMCQ this Sunday and I'm wielding Boros Burn. Wish me luck.

Christen

Too soon?

Christen

I realize it's a bomb, maybe it's just because I'm less than likely to commit to colors early game. I need to draft more.

Christen

I thought maybe I'd start a topic where we discuss picks when drafting. I buy booster packs now and then, so to get some value out of it, our team discusses what our picks are. So let me start, I have this M15 booster pack here. [deck] Commons 1 Crowd's Favor 1 Midnight Guard 1 Research Assistant 1 ...

Best play of the Pro Tour:

http://youtu.be/O1ueErB8bms?t=44m48s

A play easily missed. Golgari Charm effectively became a Counterspell with a one-sided sweep.

Christen

It's a bit ironic that the UW control deck won by doing the beats.

Christen

Happy Birthday Kaits!

Christen

Trippy frog.

Christen

Been a while. I'm playing Living End for tomorrow's PTQ. Any ideas for sideboard cards against RDW? It's my worst matchup so far in playtesting.

Christen

Just played Standard in a long while using RW burn and scrubbed out hard against lifegain. Two GWx Hexproofs landing Unflinching Courage early without an answer in my hand and an Esper control deck landing Vizkopa early game.

Or I could just be rusting.

Christen

Missed the PR due to budget constraints. I guess I'll catch up by drafting this release. Is the order TBJ or JBT?

Christen

But it's not a Chandra 0, it's two Chandra 0's.

I did say when he connects. I just didn't say he can connect twice
