You cannot attack into one, nor profitably block one. It costs less mana as well.

You can't be serious.

Elricity

I simply don't like Flamespeaker. It is nullified by ... Fleecemane Lion

Explain.

Elricity

Yeah, ultimately I figured that out at the last although I think I spashed white for a couple of pillars and only 1 hunt/flesh. I was going to upload the 2 matches I played so you can see the evolution of me realizing my GB pool was actually better than I originally thought. Youtube is being a dick ...

Elricity

I've done a lot of playing vs the Naya version that was out a while back so here's my experience with walker decks in general plus the one whole match and theorycraft I played vs Jund last night. Sideboarded magma spray from them makes the matchup quite a bit more difficult. You kind of want to keep...

Elricity

Still trying to figure out why my computer at home is getting a 500 error when accessing the youtube upload page. That or it just fails to load it and the simple uploader never starts. Had never been an issue before but maybe I'll try using a different browser. Might have to do with the power outage...

Elricity

Wow m15 is selling high. At this rate, even grinding 3-1 DE's I'll be set to buy my next deck come rotation. If I play more than once a week that is.

Elricity

Looks like Youtube's uploader is down for me right now. Shame.

Elricity

My loss today was to Jund walkers but I can't do much about it when I draw no lands or all lands. When I was able to play magic, I just pointed everything at his face. The curve on the deck is a wee slow if you kill Xenagos.

Elricity

Man why people gotta scoop before you can go off with Flamespeaker. Yea I know you're not gonna come back after I just +2'd you, but let me have a little fun please. Now that you mention it, there are very few games that they let me bring them to 0 after a successful flamespeaker connect. I can't r...

Elricity

I have 3. I'll be on Thursday evening

Elricity

Very good against creature decks with low removal like blue devotion.

Very unreliable against high removal decks which is a lot of the format.

Elricity

too soon?

You, sir, are a terrible human being.

Are you taking students?

Elricity

And do you guys typically try to Burn out or ignore early Jaces? Does it depend on if you have a creature or not? Because even when I have Phoenix beats, I typically accept that it's a 1/2 and keep burning their face. I guess if I start burning out early Jaces, I could start bringing in Flamespeake...

Elricity

Seems a bit all over the place but I guess you'll figure out what sideboard cards you like with your playstyle.

Elricity

Flamespeaker vs control? Seems that he just gets shut off by Jace or walled by Ram. You do have to make it a priority to kill Jace (it's already a priority regardless of what you do) but Ram isn't an issue since it dies to any 3-4 point burn spell. Mind you, I haven't personally gotten the plan to ...

Elricity

I haven't taken the time to upload the two matches I played (I got byes for the other 2) but I had a pull where I was originally tempted to go GB and instead drifted WB so I had some more early creatures. Then, sideboarding, I went GBw instead just for the white removal. MDU asked me to torture shar...

Elricity

having to resize every game is obnoxious, I know I can do it but every time something appears on screen it conceals the entire battlefield more or less and I have to drag it small and move it to a corner if I can do it in my settings that will help I couldn't find anything in settings. Don't know i...

Elricity

Play any post M15 games yet Elricity? Seem like the meta is swarming with Ux Devotion preying on aggro decks. Meta is still as stale as ever, but at least we can save tickets and run the same deck pretty much. ------------ This isn't any new or anything but I really hate v4... visually and technica...

What's wrong with dealing with a human, Elricity? I do it all the time.

I didn't want to pay $1 for an uncommon

Elricity

I rarely run into an issue and unless I'm viewing my own videos, I don't even know they flagged my Portal or attack on titan songs. Everything else I do goes through. So, Gryff and Forge were cheap. Sold my mana confluence and made profit. Garruk was only selling for 9 tickets but I dumped it anyway...

Elricity

So what's the chance they actually replace the offcolor wedge names? They're odd but then all the magic names seem a bit odd.

Elricity

Hah! Lost my first two matches in the prerelease...got pity byes for the next two. Taking it!

Elricity

Jet the phoenix, see if you scry up a boros charm, win that turn. Reason you don't burn him with it is because if you scry up a 3 point burn spell, you're still very in the game with him at 1 and 2 lethal creatures on board instead of just one that can be blanked by a variety of things. That's assum...

Elricity

Heh, my first match, game 3, I drew 1 non land card after a mull keeping 4 lands. It happens. Plus, I built poorly but I'm not a good limited player. I'm sure I'll host mine just to give limited players an aneurysm chance to have fun at my expense. I did open Garruk which I'm selling right after so ...

Elricity

I was theorycrafting with G devotion I understand, you stated that before. However, I'm not theorycrafting because I played at least 20 matches against it. You should not race this deck if your sideboard can control it. It's not jund monsters. They don't run enough lands to cast their big spells on...

Elricity

If I do another SCG tournament, I will probably have to board a playset of reckoner for that match. There were 4 out of 50 at the last and the decks were silly enough that they didn't hate out hexproof.

Elricity

If you use and/or listen to big label music, they'll do that.

About how to add music, you use a video editor and add it in. MDU recommended Wondershare and I've really liked the program.

Elricity

There are several decks you really have no option but to try to kill them before they come on line with a little disruption here and there and that includes most decks with multiple planeswalkers and I haven't played against it yet but green devotion would fall under this category as well (theorycr...

Elricity

I have an oddly shaped monitor. 1440x900

Elricity

Unless the burn mirror is on searing blood, YP is better than phoenix. It's too easy to force your opponent to sorcery speed durdle if he's trying to hit you with phoenixes that can be answered at cheaper cost. Plus having an actual mana curve by having flamespeaker into YP plus skullcrack. This is ...

Elricity

1920x1080 (1080p)

Dumb question. Does your monitor need to be that size or have I been retarded all this time?

Elricity

I would be surprised if chain veil sees play anyway.

Elricity

Against green devotion, it also stops BTE which is huge. I wouldn't play it just to blank Disciple unless you're on a very aggressive plan. Likewise, if I'm not playing skullcrack against MBC, I'm not playing Hushwing either. I really, really, really want it against green devotion after testing but ...

Elricity

@ Elricity. I really had to cringe at your comparison :gonk: but, hey, a creative one for sure! Personally I think it's much closer to Skullcrack which, as you say, depends on your playstyle vs Black Devo. Hushwing is as different from skullcrack in that matchup as forge devil is different from ele...

Elricity

Z, appreciate the advice. Some of these I tend to see after the fact but I'm definitely too much on "what am I doing this turn" and not crafting a general game plan.

Elricity

It's how my mind works. In X matchup: * How many cards did I spend * How many cards does my opponent lose because of this card * On average, how much does this change life totals After that, certain cards start looking quite similar in roles and are helpful for evaluating it correctly. In this case:...

Elricity

Can you explain the comparison with blighting, Elricity? 1) Like skullcrack, it does damage to your opponent but unlike skullcrack, it fully counters half of a card instead of countering somewhere between 1/4 to 1/3 of a card. Since it only sometimes survives an untap, it's on average sometimes bet...

Elricity

Don't forget the Grizzly bears with the sometimes awkward mana cost.

Elricity

I was really, really surprised he went on the pack rat plan with staff out. Particularly at the end where he discarded a 2/3 flier to make a 2/2. Dauntless, Of the devotion decks, it's least powerful against black but even there, it's an instant speed blightning . Whether that's valuable to you depe...
