For those who've been grinding standard, whats in your gauntlet? Do we have any decks we have more faith in than others or are we running a diverse red set? I'm on mono red aggro that goes to -4 fodder -4 hordeling +4 regents +4 sieges, but not sure if staying there is a good option as it lacks a wa...

@thrillho - lots and often lol Totally a Magical Christmasland deck right now. Don't think this one will ever leave the backburner without another RW land or a way to keep it alive until all the pieces are assembled, and even then it looks to be too much for too little. The Grixis Alesha + Living Lo...

This idea got tossed around so I shelled it and want to try it out: 19 Mountain The dudes (16) 4 Foundry Street Denizen 4 Lightning Berserker 4 Monastery Swiftspear 4 Zurgo Bellstriker Dudes on demand (6) 3 Dragon Fodder 3 Hordeling Outburst The burn (16) 4 Searing Blood 4 Twin Bolt 4 Wild Slash 4 L...

Are you finding Dash strong enough on its own? I was having a hard time finding enough upside of a disappearing board without using ETB triggers. Which ended me up here: 4 Battlefield Forge 4 Mana Confluence 10 Mountain 1 Plains 1 Temple of Triumph 4 Zurgo Bellstriker 4 Lightning Berserker 4 Anafenz...

That trailer made me feel the same feelings as watching the original back in the day. Midniting that one definitely. Been playing around with this after doing a sealed with double chiefs: [deck=Hellrider's Ghost] 4 Bloodstained Mire 14 Mountain 1 Swamp 1 Temple of Malice 4 Zurgo Bellstriker 2 Monast...

lorddax

Kait is right. Dumb move and rehash of an old Bash.org snippet anyway. That list looks good. From my brewing I don't see a good attack angle as the deck has a curve that starts having answers earlier than the Abzan decks I've faced so far. Maybe force to make them choose between developing boardstat...

lorddax

Please tell me someone has been working on this awesome trollfest in secret.

lorddax

Which list is that? Have a link for us returning players lured back in with the promise of big red dragons flying around?

lorddax

I've been running with Command in my current config and I have to say I've gotten more use out of it as a burn spell and stopping Ram lifegain. command works great when you can sequence it t2 fodder > hordeling > command, but those situations usually end up with a handy counterspell or Aetherspout. ...

Not touching that with a ten foot pole because no one is going to change anyone else's mind about pro/con social justice, and this isn't really the forum for it. /edited to remove the stupid Going a different direction - does anyone have any experience with arranging a play testing session for somet...

http://www.polygon.com/2015/3/30/8313663/im-taking-a-break-its-not-you-gaming-its-me While its about videogames in particular, I think it crosses over into why some of us bounce in and out of MtG and gaming in general. Theres some weeks where I NEED to flop cards as self care, and other weeks where ...

Went 2-1 with this list: 4 Foundry Street Denizen 4 Zurgo Bellstriker 4 Monastery Swiftspear 2 Mardu Scout 3 Ire Shaman 4 Wild Slash 4 Searing Spear 4 Stoke the Flames 4 Atarka's Command 4 Hordeling Outburst 4 Dragon Fodder 9 Mountain 1 Forest 4 Mana Confluence 4 Wooded Foothills 1 Temple of Abandon...

lorddax

I'd definitely play Denizen, the better question is if you need all those Fodders

Was thinking that they make Denizen and Command better. Maybe -2 Fodder +2 Lightning Berserker?

lorddax

Thoughts on this for FNM? Haven't played in quite a while and have no idea of the current top decks and their win plans :-/ 4 Foundry Street Denizen 3 Ire Shaman 2 Mardu Scout 4 Monastery Swiftspear 4 Zurgo Bellstriker 4 Atarka's Command 4 Dragon Fodder 4 Hordeling Outburst 4 Lightning Strike 4 Stok...

lorddax

LP that Rg deck is exactly the type of thing I was brewing alongside a Dash abusing deck. I may try to build this from the pre release tonight because damn does that look strong! For anyone else that enjoy prereleasing you can fuck around here: http://www.magicdrafting.com/dragons-of-tarkir-sealed/?...

My thoughts on using a standard aggro curve of 12/8/4/4 Creatures - 24 4 Zurgo bellstriker 4 Lightning Berserker 4 Monastery Swiftspear 4 Mardu Scout 3 Dragon Whisperer 3 Goblin Rabblemaster 2 Thunderbreak Regent Spells - 16 2 Lightning Strike 2 Searing Blood 1 Draconic Roar 3 stoke the flames 3 Wil...

Anyone having success playing Mardu? These colors seem really strong right now.

Too many squeal like a pig jokes. . .

Enjoy my clanmates, not useful for just me but when shared with the whole clan should be quite helpful.

lorddax

Changing gears here for a sec. For the trading minded, I dropped something in the private thread as a gift to the clan.

lorddax

Man, what a time to come back to the game, new set and new events. My two cents is I guess I'm just never as surprised or as harsh on dudes who end up like this due to card swapping because thats how I grew up playing the game and why it took me so long to move from casual to competitive. When your ...

lorddax

Way to go man! Makes me proud that I'm looking to trade a lot of the value from my boxes I cracked this weekend (khans and a frf) for most of these cards. Starting with 20/20/20 Sligh and building back into RW. My fresh Ugin should allow me to trade into a big chunk of the deck. Any changes looking ...

lorddax

Hey guys, was out of game for a while and ended up looking for where RW was at cause its the only manabase I have right now and then I find another Khaos brew, they do me so well when getting back in after hiatus. Hope you dont mind if I try this out and tweak it for me meta bro. On the RW front and...

lorddax

Hey so question for you guys, Reentering standard with an initial bankroll of $100 + whatever value is left in my old Standard trade binder (RtR block + M14 + Theros, BtG and some JOU). The decks I've done the best with are RW Burn, Hellrider aggro, Sledgehammer, and KDW. RW Burn being my most enjoy...

lorddax

I think Roc gives the deck too much reach to not run it so 24 will be my testing number

lorddax

Tons of information in one post. Your version is probably where I'll start taking the deck as I get more Standard cards and can swap stuff out of the Event deck, which was suprisingly decent out of box. I agree that Maruader may be the easiest to switch out for some of the testing cards if there are...

lorddax

Trying to get back into the game so I picked up an event deck from my new local shop and took it apart to see what possible changes to make before Friday. I think there is a solid aggro shell in here but I have no idea about the speed of the format and if this is just and inferior plan thats being d...

lorddax

This brew excites me. But Boroskens is a cooler name. Gonna start assembling this I think now that my Pyroburn lost 80% of its cards. Do you think the list could be trimmed to 23 or would it cause too many problems from the side? The Roc looks both too good to possibly brick on but moving a 3rd stri...

Im going black for the better creatures and removal instead of tricks and bears.

lorddax

For anyone wondering some generalized sealed tips: 17-18 lands 23-22 spells 6 non creature cards 17 dudes 14 CMC3 or 4 Anything over CMC5 or more needs to really add value to deck Each targeted enchantment wants 4 targets to make sure you aren't drawing the enchant but no target Your best cards may ...

lorddax

Thats why you go to pre release, where everyone is even and the only deciding factor is the power of your awesome deck building skills!

lorddax

It sucks so much that I need to read more of it to tell you how bad.

I saw that entire scene play out and it was brutally awesome. Characterization seems to be good so far, makes me want to know more about your main character and who he is.

lorddax

So what did I miss while pretending to be an adult and be all "business"y? Kait make anyone cry? Thirst splitting someone open? Ham finding the equation for antilife? Z setting fire to a wombat? Khaos unleashing the power of the apple? Val and MDU dueling in the pacific? LP and Dechs relea...

Allright guys here's some for you that came up from a couple hours of testing vs WUr aka American Control (win cons of Elspeth & Aetherling - secondary Jace) Testing with 4YP main, 2Crypt, 1ToMalice, 1ToSilence, 3shock 3blood with 4 t//t side. Took long time to decide mull decisions, wondering w...

Does anyone else think of horrible janky combos when looking at spoilers? 80% of the combos or interactions I think up are usually crap but 20% seem to actually have application, usually not discovered by me tho :P Like Twinflame and Harness by Force ?

Getting caught up, after not playing all week. Between YP version and no YP version which one would you guys run in a meta thats typical FNM style? Decks from all over the place including left field but round 3 is usually versus a known deck like control(Esper, UW) or Aggo(MBA, Minotaur Aggro). My i...
