2HG wise, the control player and beat down player seems to be a good set up. My buddy and I found that small aggro isn't too good. We've had the best luck by playing more midrange threats and VCA engines.

Hack 'n slashin' with Zero in MMX4 makes me wish I was a Red ninja robot with a lightsaber. If only...*sigh*

Still better than the Denver defense.

Went 4-1 at prerelease for third place. Played UR and my deck was very good. I pulled Elspeth and Erebos in my sseald pool but black and white had only two other playables and blue and red were super deep and synergistic. Won 8 packs and haven't opened them yet.

Any thoughts on Hammer of Purphoros in the upcoming meta?

I'm a sucker for a defensive beat down. Holy cow Seattle came to play. Denver was scared from the get go and you could tell. Still kind of a lose lose scenario. I 'me not a fan of either team personally. I didn't like the bronco cause they beat the chargers and ya know division rivals and all. Every Seahawks fan I've ever met has been a staggering douche. So fuck them as well.

Remember that time Zem told you what would be banned and unbanned in Modern two weeks before it happened?

Deathrite banned. Bitter Blossom & Wild Nactl unbanned.

Surprisingly, I care about Sylvan Primordial's banning in EDH more than anything in Modern.

I'm really glad i traded a playset of DRS for 3 thoughtseizes and a temple of deceit ~7 hours ago.

I'm also really glad I already own 2 copies of vendilion clique. Bitterblossom is going to be hard as hell to get unless they reprint it though

Yay I might just get myself a playset of drs now when they fucking tank.

Posted: Mon Feb 03, 2014 6:32 am
by TubeHunter
They probably won't tho. They'll go down some though wich is my chance to strike.

Deathrite probably won't be cheap long-term. It's one of the most important cards in Legacy.

Still, the banning really does hurt their potential. I had planned on getting am extra playset before they stopped printing them, but that doesn't seem like that good of an idea now.

Posted: Mon Feb 03, 2014 6:35 am
by TubeHunter
Well yes, that is why when it goes down, I'll grab a playset.

I just wish I had more money to throw at this game.

Posted: Mon Feb 03, 2014 6:39 am

I guess money isn't the issue, it's that I'm too smart to spend more than I do on a hobby that I rarely get to enjoy at a competive level.

Posted: Mon Feb 03, 2014 6:45 am

Same. I picked up seizes and was bummed for paying 60 for the last 3

That and playset of Phoenix were the last cards I bought.

Damn I just think I talked myself out of buying drs.

It wasn't like it took a fucking genius to figure it out. :rolleyes:

I'm going to make a killing on these Bitterblossoms, I bought out SCG and CFB last week.

Do you think I should snag a judge foil at 80? If I go right after work I might be able to beat everyone else...
