[Fedoras of Salvation] - White Knights ITT

[DarthStabber]

I'm getting Prometheus snapping his chains on my back. Probably use chained to the rocks as a template (maybe have him choking the shit out of his vulture tormentor). Keep meaning to save money for it, but I keep spending it on mtg.

[Lightning_Dolt]

I'm getting a tattoo.

Asuka on my back? Y/Y?

As long as it's meaningful to you and you think you won't regret it.

[DroppinSuga]

Bad tattoo ideas are bad.

[zemanjaski]

You guys suck with the sarcasm.

[DroppinSuga]

Internet sarcasm is a tough thing.

[Kaitscralt]

The shark chasm. The abyss into which all idiocy falls and is masticated to shreds by irreverent hilarity.

[hamfactorial]

You guys suck with the sarcasm.

We couldn't cross the sarchasm

You guys suck with the sarcasm.

We couldn't cross the sarchasm

God damn it, Matt. My girlfriend and I are both sitting here laughing like idiots now.

[hamfactorial]

my work here is done

[DocLawless]

Ham puns are the best puns.

Like this?

I'm getting a tattoo.

Asuka on my back? Y/Y?

If we're talking about Eva Asuka, fucking yes.

[zemanjaski]

Of course we're talking about Eva Asuka.

[zemanjaski]

Then I just need a Heart Pirates tattoo and "You're gonna carry that load..." for the trifecta.

[LP, of the Fires]

Goryo's vengeance might be a deck in modern now. Gonna investigate later tonight.

[zemanjaski]

Its very close.

[hamfactorial]

Decks will be packing a lot of GY hate in the side now that DRS is gone. I think the Griselanimator deck will steal wins in the first few weeks, but falls victim to the cyclical nature of easily-hated decks.

[LP, of the Fires]

We're gonna see how good the hate is, then we're gonna see if we can make a transformative sideboard. These are very interesting times.

[Helios]

Of course we're talking about Eva Asuka.

Good good. You better post pictures.

[hamfactorial]

We're gonna see how good the hate is, then we're gonna see if we can make a transformative sideboard. These are very interesting times.

If you can deal with a Grafdigger's Cage or a Rest in Peace with T1 discard, you might be OK. It's a glass cannon, but one that forces your opponent to have the answer on time.

[LP, of the Fires]

Fair.

My list of decks i'm interested in working on:

Kitty aggro. It's likely the fastest fair deck and your range of colors gives you a fanatistic sideboard to compliment your streamlined beatdown.

Griselbanned: fastest deck in the format. Less GY hate around. Can potentially play the old dredge roll of being psuedo unbeatable game one, and forcing you to have the sideboard cards game 2, or fall.

Eternal Command: Deck has lots of play and can cheat on ridiculous amounts of mana which is basically broken. That's enough to have me interested.

[Valdarith]

Through the Breach is a card.

I like Eternal Command with 3-4 maindeck spell snare; Goyfs and Bitterblossom on the play are problems. Eats aggro and control.

[LP, of the Fires]

I never had a problem with goys, I mean, we play our own goyfs. Bitterblossom is interesting on the other hand. I'm trying to remember what my old list was. I'm pretty sure it played all the remands. I love remands.

[LP, of the Fires]

4 Serum Visions
4 Lightning Bolt
4 Aether Vial
4 Snapcaster Mage
4 Tarmogoyf
3 Eternal Witness
4 Cryptic Command
3 Vendillion Clique
4 Electrolyze
4 Remand

I think this was the list.

[magicdownunder]

We can ask MDU to put something advertising the site at the end of his vids?

If anyone is willing to make a nice picture or short animation I'll have no problem including it at the end of my videos.

Personally I'm happy with where the forum is at (not saying its perfect) I just don't want DtR to become like Sally, I do respect the opinion of others I just don't want to read pages of mindless dribble.

I recall my experience in Sally's Modern burn thread where logic is replaced by 'fun and not fun' or epic counter arguments based on 'FNM results, Cockatrice or TP'...

[DarthStabber]

I'm just going to keep playing infect until I get my fetches.

[zemanjaski]

4 Serum Visions
4 Lightning Bolt
4 Aether Vial
4 Snapcaster Mage
4 Tarmogoyf
3 Eternal Witness
4 Cryptic Command
3 Vendillion Clique
4 Electrolyze
4 Remand

I think this was the list.

4 Remand + 4 Serum Visions is definitely correct. Electrolyze gets worse though:
- less DRS (value targets)
- more x/3s (Nacatl and mates)

It's obviously a good card; wondering if we can do better. Part of me wants to run a miser Twisted Image (lets bolt kill Goyfs; kills Spellskite / Birds / Walls; combat trick) or Visions of Beyond (re-useable Ancestral when the game goes long enough).

[Kaitscralt]

electrolyze eats faeries

[LP, of the Fires]

Something else that I've seen was Firespout which could be VERY good.

[LP, of the Fires]

that shit costs 3, but it should always do the trick vs. zoo type decks sans goyfs.

[zemanjaski]

electrolyze eats faeries

True but it's a bit clunky vs. Counterspell.dek; need to test.

Aether vial is amazing there at least.

[LP, of the Fires]

Someone should try actually building a faeries deck. Cause I don't believe it's good(and neither do my test partner, which could be a problem if it is good).

[DroppinSuga]

Faeries are good. Duh.

[rcwraspy]

they're typically good, but often mischievous and sometimes cranky. kinda like suga.

[DarthStabber]

Faeries in folklore are probably the scariest thing imaginable. Even the "nice" ones will fuck you up,

[DarthStabber]

Why murderous redcap was a goblin is beyond me, they are some the best representatives of unseelie fae.

Now, its possible the mana base needs to be more conservative; and the removal package needs tuning. Maybe you don't want think Twice and instead a different filter (Serum Visions) so that you can SB Grafdiffer's Cage against Pod and UWR?

SB could include:
2 Consume the Meek
1 Crucible of Worlds
2 Dispel
2 Grafdiffer's Cage
2-4 Sower of Temptation
2 Tectonic Edge
+ removal / discard
