Lantern control for the win.
I was thinking about playing vintage, and then I realized, I donāt have the $20,000 to spend on a Black Lotus, so I built a cheap burn deck in Modern. Iām running 29 one and two drops, but Iām still running 22 lands. Itās because Iām running 3 five drops and 6 X drops.
My nerd friends got me into Magic after three years of wearing me down.
I havenāt played Magic in four years. This week was the beginner tournament at my school (one of the teachers plays magic so he set up a club) and I won two gamesā¦and lost four.
What colors are you using?
What format?
Which format did you play? Standard, Modern, EDH, etc.
I honestly donāt know. I think standard.
What was your favourite three cards in your deck?
So i tried building a completely colorless deck, anuone got some criticism?
Does anyone else think adding the Circles of Protection to the Arahbo Commander deck is a good idea when upgrading it?
Nah, I donāt think so. With each one being color specific, theyāre very niche. I guess if thereās a specific color in your meta that is being troublesome you could add one, but thereās probably better direct counters to whatever youād be trying to solve with them.
So I played a 4 player game of Commander recently (while we were playing a game of Yu-GiOh and a second game of Commander in an effort to break the matrix lol) and it sort of worked out, but the card Bloodforged Battle Axe really took out the opponents before they could attack me (Iāll give you the āupgradedā decklist if you want).
I am so sad that this is real. Also, does anyone know if Unglued and Unhinged cards are legal in Commander now that Unstable is legal in Commander? I want to make a Richard Garfield P.H.D deck.
Why?
Jace, The Table Flipper is broken and Modern already is too powerful.
###edit
And expensive . . .
Yeah but power creep in some recent sets have really brought him from being off the walls
Nope. All Un-set cards were legal only until January 15th.
Modern is in the best place it could possibly be in right now. 30 different decks all had positive scores at the most recent Modern Pro-Tour. Itās the healthiest itās been in recent times.
Ehhā¦? Modern power levels have risen with the increase of card choices new sets have given it. Heās a powerful card, but not as broken as he used to be, outside of a vacuum.
They really are only unbanning him so they can sell reprints in Masters 25.
@Ranaki_Pakewa So many people see Jace go nuts in Legacy and immediately assume heās nuts in Modern. Iām glad somebody else finally realizes the formats are not the same.
