The description of this red deck is awesome. It sounds like something ham would play.

As a Canadian, these hockey alters please me greatly Must have been a really nice evening, lots of love in the air haha.

Been spreading random DTR name drops on reddit to people gaining interested in the burn deck and/or Zem's run. I feel oddly like a cultist.

Guy I recognize from r/bjj asking about beating R/W burn. Answered a guy who was wondering how competitive R/W burn is right now.

I don't know what game they're playing, but I sure as hell don't know how to play it.

I don't know those decks, to be sure. I had been watching the stream live today, but I don't think I find that style of play interesting really. Battle of the combos it seems.

I feel like they need 1 black mana slaughter games or something in that format, to keep people from doing nothing but digging for ultra.

Posted: **Sun Mar 09, 2014 10:03 pm**

Just play affinity. You setting up for combo? take 10 infect. Affinty, Pod, Twin, three best decks in the format. Storm up there as well.

Posted: **Sun Mar 09, 2014 10:07 pm**

Oh hey, said that without knowing the top 8. 5 pod, 1 twin, 2 affinity.

Posted: **Sun Mar 09, 2014 10:08 pm**

Top 8 is just Affinity, Pod, and Twin.

Open format my ass.

Posted: **Sun Mar 09, 2014 10:17 pm**

Top 8 is just Affinity, Pod, and Twin.

Open format my ass.

I did hear them make comments about that like 50 times.

No the format, but about your open ass.

About halfway down the page after clicking the day 2 coverage blog link.

Posted: **Sun Mar 09, 2014 11:57 pm**

It's so awesome that mere mortals looked at the decklist and died immediately.

Posted: **Sun Mar 09, 2014 11:59 pm**

Melira Pod is the best deck.

Posted: **Mon Mar 10, 2014 12:09 am**

Ah, yeah the Skred Red deck. I've played it a few times, gets shit on by combo

Posted: **Mon Mar 10, 2014 12:10 am**

With Pod and Twin variants everywhere, I very much want to add Linvala, Keeper of Silence to my deck.

#metagame

Ah, yeah the Skred Red deck. I've played it a few times, gets shit on by combo

Ah, yes. Cuban B.

Arm more grandpas

I'll be laughing about this for a while

Posted: **Mon Mar 10, 2014 12:36 am**

Takes you to a Dan Houston, right?

No, that's not me.

I would be Dechs [redacted].

Posted: **Mon Mar 10, 2014 12:42 am**

Turn 3 shatterstorm beating Affinity in the Finals.

Dan is not you?

Posted: **Mon Mar 10, 2014 12:50 am**

Dan is not me. I have no idea who that guy is. A buddy of mine shared his video, but it wasn't a youtube link I could just share by itself. The link I gave you takes you to the guy that uploaded the video.

Posted: **Mon Mar 10, 2014 12:54 am**

Gotcha

Posted: **Mon Mar 10, 2014 12:57 am**

Well, he drew his singleton shatterstorm and won. Sometimes you just have to be lucky.

Besides, fantastic format modern ! top 8 was only pod and affinity.... seems like nacatl and bitterblossom had a big impact in modern

Posted: **Mon Mar 10, 2014 12:58 am**

aren't we all dan

Posted: **Mon Mar 10, 2014 1:00 am**

In death, we have a name. His name was Dan Houston.

Posted: **Mon Mar 10, 2014 1:00 am**

I need some tix.

Posted: **Mon Mar 10, 2014 1:02 am**

that's what your credit card is for

Posted: **Mon Mar 10, 2014 1:07 am**

the clan guys can help with deck singles but you're going to need to get yourself on your feet first

Posted: **Mon Mar 10, 2014 1:09 am**

If you win lots you have lots of tix. Until then play pauper.

I'd check out gatherling.com and puremtgo.com; they run free entry tournaments with small prizes that can help you build a bank roll. Ill spot you a pauper deck if you like I have most lying around.

Posted: **Mon Mar 10, 2014 1:39 am**

I have UR Delver right now. It seems to run pretty solid.

Posted: **Mon Mar 10, 2014 1:51 am**

In pauper? Yeah that's the best deck.

Unless you mean the kiln fiend deck, which is terrible.

Posted: **Mon Mar 10, 2014 1:57 am**

Well not terrible but it doesn't really attack the format in a relevant way.

Posted: **Mon Mar 10, 2014 1:59 am**

I maintain that modern is WotC's trying to have the reserve list both ways. They get to keep the reserve list (of all the promises that a US corporation has made, the reserve list is the only one ever kept, and the customers hate it) and offer up an eternal format untainted by it. If they would get a little more aggressive with the banned list they might have something with modern, but until then we'll have the pod, twin, and affinity metagame, and decks will cost half a year's pay because of their failure to keep their promise of keeping the format accessible.

WotC: Keeping the promises you want broken and breaking the promises you want kept since 1993.
