I would listen so long as Alex trolls Z. I don't know if it's because he's Australian, but angry Z is funny.
It's definitely because he's Australian.

how'd that hand against junkcrats go with the pillars, bonfire, and land?

Ended up passing out, but was interested into how it played out

Fate:

If that was in round 3, I ate his entire hand with Rakdos's Return, then he topdecked an Intangible Virtue and beat me to death with lifelinked vampire tokens while I drew land.

I wish the streams were earlier. I'm an old man and go to bed at or around 11 EST.

me and Kincey joked about it at Vegas, but you literally flood out every time we watch you stream

Like above variance percentage of flood <_____<

Haha, I know! There was a game in round 2 where I started with 2 land and didn't see another for the rest of the game.

It's almost like the universe is mad at me for those hypergeometric tables.

The universe shall show you just how meaningless your precious graphs and percentages are, mathematician. Bow before the sun and accept variance as the only truth of this world!

Anyone have any suggestions for a budget Modern deck? The shop isn't running any standard or pauper this weekend, so I'm going to try my hand at Modern for once.

Burn.

/question.

Mono-red burn is very cheap. Gets better if you add in black, gets better still once you add fetches and Grim Lavamancer.

Obvious answer is obvious. :yes:

You can find me in the comments (Alexander Santos) chatting about my thoughts on the subject. tl;dr: They need to obtain a higher quality of coverage because the coverage is more important than the quality of the plays.

Alternatively, Mono R Goblins feat. Shared Animosity is quite good.

[deck]
4 Foundry Street Denizen
4 Goblin Chieftain
4 Goblin Guide
4 Goblin Wardriver
4 Legion Loyalist
3 Spikeshot Elder

4 Dragon Fodder
4 Goblin Grenade
4 Krenko's Command
3 Shared Animosity

22 Mountain[/deck]

If you have money to splash, consider Cavern of Souls or Mutavault replacing some number of Mountain (probably 3 tops).

I like the Goblin deck. I think I may have to give that bad boy a try.

I like it more with 3 Mutavault :teach:

Is Adaptive Automaton useful in a tribal goblin deck, or do the chieftains give sufficient anthem effects?

Posted: Wed Jun 26, 2013 12:54 am
by DroppinSuga
I'd think the Chieftains are enough, but I obviously haven't tested it.

I think Goblin King is in the format? That wouldn't be bad against Jund or UWR actually.

by DroppinSuga
Actually, I think that Goblin deck is going to be a pain in the ass to build. My shop probably doesn't have half those cards since they're not standard legal. Fucking card shop.

I tell them that every week. It still hasn't changed anything.

They're mostly commons printed in the last few years, I'm sure you can track them down if you try (or just order them online, they won't cost much).

I was just hoping to have it together by Saturday, but with shipping times I probably won't get them in the mail in time. Oh well. I'll just show up with a deck and proceed to mindfuck the competition.

You could try mono red affinity. Those cards ought to be more accessible. I have a list for the deck as I am going to build it for the off chance I show up at FNM on modern night. Ill try to remember to post it.

Shared animosity seems interesting. No love for aether vial?

Posted: Wed Jun 26, 2013 2:19 am

Explain to me why Aether Vial, principally through an examination of the similarity and differences between this deck and legacy goblins.

Posted: Wed Jun 26, 2013 2:22 am
by DroppinSuga
That reminds me. I'm going to build some stupid Legacy Burn deck. I need to add those cards to my cart as well.
