Dies to Removal

Dem Onslaught fetches.

Dem Onslaught fetches.

The best part is, I don't have to buy any!

I do. I was actually holding out buying them and my other two Arid Mesa for Legacy because I suspected a reprint of Onslaught fetches. Now I can just buy the reprinted red ones at reduced cost. Being able to run 12+ fetches for Lavaman food in Modern is going to be the tits.

Bloodstained Mire has, by far, the most metal name out of all the fetches.

fetches suck for standard

- awkward with scry

- courser is already too good

- makes games too long

but good for modern

They're bad with current scry, but good with courser.

um

I should say I meant to bold and italicize the "good" but mobile posting is synonymous with shitposting.

yeah but i just said the exact same thing

Any plans for a write up Z? Would love to hear your thoughts about the deck changes. I too have made my way to 4 eidolon in the SB however I am on two glares.

Was 8 4 mana spells an issue for you? I find myself really liking stoke, and have cut down on the WLH.

Congrats on 3rd, certainly a respectable finish, if only prize payouts supported it.

Going to make for some clunky ass mana bases in standard.

I'm holding out for a Grim Lavamancer reprint to make fetches delicious.

Not that it will happen.

The format changed and I reconsidered my position on a few cards. Overall, some of the changes were good, some were whatever. You have to make some radical concessions to beat UW Control.

you mean you were wrong about eidolon

Hey, would some of you FoS guys mind creating some rumor mill threads with the new cards. Our Rumor mill guys have been a dud, and it would boost discussion if we had timely threads about the new cards...

If people could repost on the rumor mill everytime they see a new card elsewhere, that would be much appreciated. Thanks guys!

Remember how that one guy said onslaught fetches where getting confirmed?

Also, Tough beats Zem.

For everyone else: when you finish 3rd place at an event like the WMCQ, congratulations are NOT what you want to hear for at least 2/3 days. Especially when the prize is product.

At least at the CFB event, there was cash given out(second place was 1200$).

Considering they are trying to push three color decks fetches seem appropriate for standard imo

With nothing to fetch? Shocks are rotating.

Mana bases will be like:

4 Caves of Coilos
4 Battlefield forge
4 Nomad Outpost
4 Mana Conflunce
4 Bloodstained Mire
3 Mountains
1 Swamp
1 Plains

Maybe you're right LD...

I'm myself happily welcome our new fetchland overlords.

For those who like to spectate, once you've acquired all the staples you need, I'd hoard boxes of this set. Regardless of what happens to prices over the next year or so, fetches are still fetches. In 2018, your boxes are gonna be worth 300+ hundred dollars.

Also, cards I'm most interested in so far are the 1/2 for 1 that MAKES 1/1S AND GROWS for each 3 mana you spend, and the 2/1 that makes them discard when it comes into play.

I play agro, my standards are low.

yup

Lots of info there.

The 2/1 that gives creatures with counters first strike looks good.

Opinions on Sarkan?

Tom Ross is really good at magic.

Yup, he is.

Correction: Tom Ross is really good at killing people.

Hoping for a Reid Duke vs. Tom Ross final.

Battle of the titans.

Opinions on Sarkan?

Who wouldn't want more Stormbreath dragons in their deck?

Hoping for a Reid Duke vs. Tom Ross final.

I think they're facing eachother in the semis, actually.

nvm, i'm wrong.

I like how the half dozen FOSers who posted after this just ignored this post.

4 Altaic bloodseeker
4 rabblemaster/flame speaker
4 stormbreath

3 sarkham
2 Chandra

4 magma jet
4 lightning strike
4 searing blood
4 stoke the flames
2 magma spray

25 lands

Ross paired against the worst BUG delver player in the world. Up 2-0.

tom ross makes infect look like the best deck in legacy

Devon O'Donnell plays in a lot of events around here. He's a really nice guy, though yeah, he's certainly not looking good here right now.

Tom wins 3-1, unsurprisingly

The Boss, ladies and gentlemen.

HEY GUISE THERES A JUND DECK IN THE TOP 8

THAT MEANS THIS FORMAT IS OPEN AND DIVERSE RIGHT

BRAINSTORM IS TOTALLY A FAIR CARD
