Haha he certainly won the game just now... hushwings not quite as good in that slot

NotARobot

-4 Rabblemaster +4 hushwing

Whats your extra 4 SB then? Extra banishing lights for whips / ascendancies, ect? Maybe eidolon of the great revel for mirrors / jeskai ?

NotARobot

What was your list?

Also, congrats dude thats awesome!

NotARobot

Too reactive

I feel like I'm playing with a 58 card main deck

Could try 2x god's willing? Its working for Watanabe today

NotARobot

Went 5-1-1 making top 8, then lost first round to a guy I beat in Swiss. We split the packs(24 each). Deck was legit. Rabblemaster easily the worst card in the list I ran.

Mind posting the list?

NotARobot

I'm building that Japanese robots list for standard... it looks like stupid fun to play until the pro tour when the real decks will be defined.

This Mardu midrange / control list took 2nd at a Japanese tourny this weekend. [deck]Maindeck Creature [8] 4 Butcher of the Horde 4 Goblin Rabblemaster Instant [12] 4 Hero's Downfall 1 Bile Blight 1 Deicide 4 Crackling Doom 2 Last Breath Sorcery [4] 4 Thoughtseize Enchantment [2] 2 Suspension Field ...

Hey all, just wanted to throw a thread up for this list that took 7th at SCG NJ this weekend. [deck]Creatures (4) 4 Brimaz, King of Oreskos Planeswalkers (11) 3 Chandra, Pyromaster 4 Elspeth, Sun's Champion 4 Sarkhan, the Dragonspeaker Lands (25) 10 Mountain 3 Plains 4 Battlefield Forge 4 Temple of ...

Im kinda liking seeker of the way right now. I can't find a good shell for him yet but hes 2 power 2 drop with lifelinking prowess, seems like very powerful anti-agro tech. Maybe in a sideboard slot? IDK.

NotARobot

Do you guys like Master of the Feast in MBA? Is the 5/5 flier on turn 3 worth the significant card disadvantage?

NotARobot

Theres a version of this all over running burning anger as the kill condition... its definitely a lot of fun on your hexproof dudes.

NotARobot

Played around with this a bit earlier

Its hilarious and fun but I think it needs a few negates or something to protect you from that removal they go for when you swing in with a giant guy

NotARobot

Played Zem's latest list at the wmcq today, won.

Nice way to cap off a good season of burning! GJ!

NotARobot

So he ended up 2nd with this list? Same variations we've seen before... deck really comes down to pilot skill more than anything else I feel these days.

NotARobot

I've found that I don't really miss the mortars sideboard since I switched to having the full 4x stoke in the main. And I don't think I'd ever bring in firedancer vs rabble... they have too much removal for it, you're usually in a REALLY bad spot if you go to burn their face and your dancer gets kil...

NotARobot

Nice and simple burn. Way to go zem, love to hear a full report if you have some time to jot it down!

NotARobot

Yeah they're nice to have, but I don't really miss them too much... feels like enchantment hate is everywhere these days. If I was going to bring them back in, I'd cut the 3 searing blood, perhaps a shock as well for 3/4 chains. Right now I feel like they're fine in the sideboard though.

NotARobot

This is the list I'm currently rocking been doing well for me so far, but i might go 4 jet 2 searing... everything else is alright [deck]Creatures 4 Young Pyromancer 4 Chandra's Phoenix Spells 4 Shock 4 Boros Charm 4 Lightning Strike 4 Stoke the Flames 4 Warleader's Helix 3 Searing Blood 3 Skullcrac...

NotARobot

Well, he played fast and loose and got burned

NotARobot

Well hes getting rewarded in game 3 Seth kept an abysmal hand. Can't believe he went for Chandra into island island mutavault, man.

NotARobot

Managed to avoid the dreaded chain revs I always run into... this is gonna be a tough game 2/3 for him.

NotARobot

I feel like he was always good vs all Bx variants. Not sure about walkers - they run caryatids and coursers which just stop him from swinging in, and the majority of their spells are 4 cmc + right?

NotARobot

Shoot, not gonna be able to make the open today after all

Thats disappointing. Hopefully someone else reps burn!

NotARobot

Chandra? Really? I feel like she will eat a stoke and then get ripped apart by something

NotARobot

So tomorrow is SCG Open DC, I'm expecting insane amounts of rabblered because the cards it uses are sold out everywhere.. Can you guys give me any suggestions to really shore up the matchup? Is dancer too slow in the sideboard for it?

NotARobot

Good job LP! Gonna stick with the rabble over burn moving forward here?

NotARobot

Burn also got 4th place, this list looks like sperlings with a few changes.. Not a huge fan of the no chains/jets, but idk I havent tested that version [deck] Creatures 9 4 Young Pyromancer 4 Chandra's Phoenix 1 Eidolon of the Great Revel Spells 27 4 Lightning Strike 4 Shock 4 Boros Charm 4 Skullcr...

It just finished a couple hours ago so theres not much yet

Heres the link to the coverage, includes quite a few videos of the matches... google page translate makes it readable I guess

I think an eidolon burn build just won the tokyo WMCQ - trying to find his decklist atm.

NotARobot

oh man this reddit thread.... http://www.reddit.com/r/spikes/comments ... _for_wmcq/ ... that guy is back... I'm not the only one who remembers him I hope

NotARobot

I haven't lost to it in a while, so maybe I feel a little too confident against it... but I don't think its our worst matchup at all.

NotARobot

The dancers murder monoblue, and our game is already strong vs BW, all he really needs is the blight, 2x reprisal and maybe Chandra.

NotARobot

I don't hate the Elspeth in the sideboard. When theros first came out I was running a midrange burn that md reckoner and stormbreath, had her in the side. It was fun and worked well back then... wonder how it would hold up now though

NotARobot

Hmm... still loses to legion loyalist in the red decks... and I don't think I'd like to see it over a chains vs a desecration demon... but I definitely wanna see how your testing comes out.

NotARobot

Ooh, give us a hint?

NotARobot

Whats your justification for having 0 chains maindeck?

NotARobot

Thats rough to start a tournament so promising then go down that way... Just have to focus on keeping your cool and taking yourself off tilt so you don't impact later games. I think wear//tear is too narrow vs Bx decks - your single target is whip, right? I prefer the catch-all of banishing light, t...
