It can't beat jund.
On this topic, I've been doing a lot of testing against Jund with a bunch of different decks, and we ended up playing Thopter Spy Network in our Affinity lists because Jund can basically never beat it.

To put it in the words of the infamous Joe Herrera: "If you untap with that card I'm probably just dead." :evillol:

They also have a really tough time with Monastery Siege. Any deck playing blue should be OK against Jund.

[Fedoras of Salvation] - White Knights ITT

Maybe it's because I've had to carry a bag of life-saving medication for my entire life, but I just can't imagine having my deck stolen in any way that doesn't involve physical robbery.
I don't know because it wasn't actually stolen from me, my friend was borrowing it for the event and they stole it out of his backpack. Which was on his back at the time. So someone literally walked up behind him, unzipped his backpack, and grabbed the first thing they could reach, which was obviously the deck he was playing for the event. It wasn't really a robbery or anything, just someone taking advantage of someone with their guard down. I have a Gamecube bag that holds my Magic stuff, which basically consists of whatever deck I'm playing in an UltraPro tower, a brick of dice, granola bars and like a billion lens cleaning wipes. It sits on my hip so it's pretty hard to steal from.

It sucks but it isn't a huge deal. I was pretty peeved when I wrote that post but I'm over it now.

I appreciate the work mate (esp. anything limited related)

We're currently working on a new animated series using techniques from my failed spite project and pencil animation - I can also post the Standard and Legacy MOCS videos now if you like though... Kait's Draft videos are also great if you can convince him to post em.
thanks, got too much stuff going on currently to record and edit but will hopefully do more once I am settled
I'm not editing mine but I guess my format is a little easier in the sense that I don't have to wait in between rounds and stuff. I have been liking Twitch for breaking my videos up into individual chunks even though I can't listen to music while I play. :\

Yeah, that's why I urged people to play a lot of sealed before the set came out, battlecruiser Magic is very easy once you understand what keywords are most important. This format will probably be flying and trample, the unblockable guy is good but trample creatures are usually just better.

On the flipside if my burn opponent has every single Rift and Lightning Bolt in their deck in game 1 the matchup is basically unwinnable unless I draw a pretty specific set of cards. (Basically has to be Master of Etherium and Ravager in combination with any Nexus.)

That and delver free rolls the pod and affinity matchups which jund Can't claim.
Junk is good in both of those matchups. Lingering Souls is a beating vs. Affinity and it has the sideboard hate for Pod.

It just loses to Storm.

Quite being illiterate.

The matchup was in junds favor before, but delver had some trumps in keranos/batterskull to compete in the grind fest that was that matchup.

Now you're playing the same attrition matchup, but with ancestral recall.
Keranos being the only win condition that doesn't die miserably to everything in Jund/Junk seems like a pretty easy fuckin' matchup.

You don't have Ancestral Recall, it's a lot worse than that because it makes Snapcaster significantly worse. Like yeah drawing cards is sweet but why are we not paying any attention to the bigger picture? When your opponent has uncounterable kill for almost all of your ways to win, having a bunch of cards doesn't do much for you.

If Abrupt Decay wasn'
t a card the deck would be by far the best, but...yeah.

Delver, the best deck in the format. You know, that deck that crumbles to Abrupt Decay, a card that some of the actual best decks in the format are playing as 4-ofs.

I was helping a friend make a budget Mono White Heroic when I came up with this list:

[deck]Creatures
4 Soldier of the Pantheon
4 Favored Hoplite
4 Phalanx Leader
3 Ainok Bond-Kin
3 Fabled Hero
3 Abzan Falconer
2 High Sentinels of Arashin

Spells
4 Gods Willing
4 Defiant Strike
4 Ajani's Presence
3 Mortal's Ardor

22 Plains

Sideboard
2 Ajani Steadfast
2 Akroan Skyguard
3 Return to the Ranks
2 Spear of Heliod
3 Suspension Field
2 Launch the Fleet
1 Deicide
[/deck]


It still needs some adjustments but I think it has potential to be REALLY good and the sideboard's a mess. Any opinions?
Yes, play red or green with it. I came to basically the same conclusions, Heroic as a mechanic seems pretty strong now.

Red
offers some good combat tricks as well as Anax and Cymede.

Green offers Reap What is Sown and [card]Mortal's Resolve[/card], as well as Boon Satyr and Hero of Ioras if you want to go the enchantment route. Setessan Tactics is also insane in the deck.
