With the inclusion of Planar Disruption, we now have 8 clean answers to 'walkers in the main deck. It also brings in answers to artifact abilities, in some rare circumstances.

Also tightened a few things to keep it streamline. The white beast awakens. And it's very budget friendly, too!

Oh fuck actually Planar Disruption artifact clause is huge. It can hit Vehicles now before they get crewed. Very spicy!

Actual TQ: Amalia, Nadu, Rescaminator, and Urza's Saga are believed by the majority of players of each Pioneer, Modern, Legacy, and Vintage to need addressing in each respective format. What will they ban from each deck and why? Will it be enough, or will the deck just adapt without losing win %?

Amalia needs to go. Forcing draws is degenerate as all fuck and its combo just happening to leave someone at near infinite life AND tutor up an Aetherflux Reservoir at the same while also being simultaneously tutorable directly onto the battlefield, findable with CoCo AND entirely hit all at once with Return from the Ranks is just retarded robustness that has no right existing in any formats.

Ban Amalia, and Chord of Calling too for good measure.

>>93231890
>wotc banning anything they can still profit off of
Not happening. If they were unwilling to ban, or at least errata, an objectively and undeniably broken card like Amalia - a card that's actually broken in the sense that it can make games literally unplayable - then we're not getting shit anytime soon.

Speaking as someone who loves Amalia and thinks she's fun to use, she definitely needs to go. She's busted. She's just too good, and the ability to force draws is lame as hell and isn't healthy for any format.

I agree Amalia is stronk the deck can go and i will not cry for it but forgetting about Sorin+Ripper is for me even more offensive. The combination at this point is slapped in a bunch of decks (Sac, Mardu Greasefang, Fight Rigging BG, BG vampires, Rakdos Vampires, Monoblack Vampires...) that wears Black and played with success just because of the unfair effectiveness it has to cheat into play the Ripper.

Amalia must go? Probably, Sorin must die alongside her? Without a fucking doubt. Get rid of this travesty asap

MORE TESTS.
This little fuck might seem unassuming, but after a LOT of thought I've begin leaning toward it.
If unanswered, it can easily solo a game by itself and get out of hands. It spits out chumps to sac to Ripper ward like mad, which is a huge plus, and gets us on a fast clock right from turn 1 to help chop down control even more.
2 power is nothing to be scoffed at, trading with a big chunk of the format, and the dudes it leaves behind are great pack mules for Katilda disturbs.

Dropping the double striker for these, right now. It just gives the list so many options for aggro and snowballing, which seem to be far better options than anything else can provide in the same (Low cmc creature) slot.

Sad as fuck the tokens aren't spirits too for Katilda, but oh well.

>>93232413
If it wasn't push it would be bolt, if it wasn't bolt it would be path or dismember or or or. There's always going to be a best spell of a given archetype, and the goal of bans isn't necessarily to shave off the top each time for the sake of getting rid of something.

Has good tools to deal with our permanent-based removal and Vindicators, and big enough threats that they can go toe to toe with our late game Voltron'd kaijus. Fun match.

>AZC
0 wins 2 losses
As expected, but I also didn't see the Fleeting Spirits that I had to help with this match. Sad, but it happens.

We have only come even CLOSE to losing a game to either Vamps or Phoenix a single time, one game against Vamps where our draws were awkward and they had the nut. It happens. Most of said games end with us at 20 or more life. I even handily won a game on a mull to 5 vs full grip of 7, against Vamps. This list is an absolute carnival shitstomp against Vamps + Phoenix. It feels like you're fighting a Homelands set constructed Pauper deck or some a deck someone built while drafting a Bad Cards Cube or some shit, its ridiculous.
Weaknesses are obvious and will be tempered with time. I had a lot of fun brewing this and even more fun testing it. Glad I met a ton of Vamps players to confirm that it is, in fact, the absolute nuts.

Not to oversell it. We do struggle a lot against many lists, but the top contenders in the meta are NOT among those lists. Amalia might be, haven't seen it yet.

Please test list and help with brew. It's very budget friendly, unlike my other color pie monstrosities and their price gouging mana bases. (Thanks WotC)
And yeah we're back to normal borders. As much as the meme is the dream, i hate alt border and grayscale garbage too.

You can't really print an "answer" to Amalia because she's a broken card that forces draws. She's just a poorly written card that can create unwinnable circumstances if you don't happen to have some way to remove her at the exact moment her player decides to try forcing a draw. The only printable answer would be something stupid like an enchantment that says "if a source an opponent controls would force a draw, you win the game" but at that point they'd both be admitting they fucked up and admitting that they're too lazy to actually fix it.

I believe you about rakdos and phoenix and for that reason I bet your list could own some paper tournaments (and a smaller number of lucky online events) where amalia and green are less popular. However, I think that amalia's backup plans are strong enough to win even if she can't attack for lethal. I've been thinking about the value of certain permanents like pithing needle and damping sphere in pioneer right now and will work on something

>>93232805
>However, I think that amalia's backup plans are strong enough to win even if she can't attack for lethal.
We solve a major one of those backup plans: Halo is a maindeck answer to Aetherflux (And so is Planar Disruption to a lesser extent.

Amalia's just a problem in general though so I can't worry about that much. I don't think we'll have any problem dealing with their 1/1s once we lock down their gameplan. The lack of instant-speed interaction, however, is a big problem. I'll keep an eye on that. Fleeting Spirit can dodge her explosion though, which is nice.

I really haven't seen Nykthos ever, somehow. Maybe I'll jump into some private test games and feel that matchup out.

you can play gary in place of soul spike. it isn't ideal but it's 5 life when it hits the board assuming you have necro out. the obvious drawback is you have to maintain your life total to live until you can cast it, but it's your best budget option at the moment.
i think a straight black devotion list with necro could slide into tier 2 comfortably.

File: download.jpg (230 KB, 976x680)

SO
Let's do a hypthetical.

Runed Halo on Aetherflux. Backup wincon negated.
Heliod has devotion. Amalia's explosion bounces off Indestructible.

What the fuck can an Amalia list even do here? Fetch their 1x Skyclave and pray another Heliod doesn't land? That's a tutor they aren't using to find their combo pieces.
We could lock that option out with Hushbringer effects. Seems like Hush might be a good sideboard option to consider...

And don't say their second backupbplan is creatures. The creatures in Amalia are 100% trash without the combo. They literally exist to get killed as collateral damage.

will the not-a-core-set be pioneer legal?

ALRIGHT THEN.
Hoodwinked my friend into slapping Amalia into my shitbrew. Results:

>Amalia forced a draw every game.
It could never win. The puzzle of Heliods and Fleeting Spirits tanking Amalia explosions, Halos to brick Aetherflux, Vindicators doming them for 20 if he dared to attack with a boosted Amalia, our Lifelink pumping us out of Dina loop lethal drain range, it just worked. Our maindeck has pieces that solve the Amalia problem. Once their 1x Skyclave is burned, they have no options to break through what we lay down. Moreover, our threats are beyond large enough to cleave through even 100+ life in no time at all.

Not the forced draw problem, but the Amalia being able to win one. Three games ended in Amalia forcing a draw because it was hopelessly losing, twice by Lively Dirge reanimating the forced-draw pieces, once by doing the same via Return to the Ranks. Ended 0-0-3 in the test games. Holy sweet fucking flaming shitfuck ban this fucking cancer already lmfao wtf.

Instant speed interaction could help with this. But we're here to turn our memes into dreams, not cuck to the meta. Have your draws, Amalia. Cower in fear and take the easy way out. Live the meta cuck life, it's what you deserve.

Overall, the matchup looks alright. Could use some tuning, but we don't suffer as badly here as initially feared. Will do more tests.

>>93233674
Get them out sooner, or accept that it's better to prioritize doing your plan A best than having contingencies for your plan D. Flipping an Ulvenwald Oddity is also a decent enough overrun effect for forcing in the last bit of damage.

There is no budget one for Pioneer because mana.

Put your own spin on it. The monke combo can be swapped for Winter locks, for example. Have fun my friend, back when Modern was a format, Owling Mine produced some very exciting, puzzling and high-level games.

Then you might have been from some other planet as well.

You enjoy the true magic art, the cute animals and the lack of melanin enriched characters, anon :3

le tiny mammal is cringe to me. The art has shown nothing great. I am not an obsessive /pol/tard.

I've been raised in the 90's. Not a furry. Haven't read Redwall.

>What do you think of it?
I'm a little sad there's no room for reality smasher but otherwise it looks pretty good, lots of early creatures but it also packs a ton of interaction

>>93234967
I'm talking to a guy who trophied with it and he says he doesn't like the Nulldrifters and considered replacing them with 2 Reality Smasher 1 Battlemage

>>93235156
nice, I'll give it a try then, I was only missing the nullldrifters

>Thanks for writing. From a big picture, Magic excels at creating variety and does poorly at consistency. The core idea of a trading card game is we make lots and lots of pieces you can play with and then you, the player, customize your game as you see fit. History has shown us, the wider we spread the potential of what Magic can be, the more people find something they enjoy and are attracted to the game.
>Think of it this way. Each player has a different sense of what Magic is to them. There’s no cutoff point where we make the majority of players happy. In fact, for many players, it’s the ever-expanding quality to the game that they enjoy most.
>This does mean though that we might make choices that don’t connect with what you personally enjoy, and I respect that. If Magic isn’t providing what you want out of it, that’s okay. My only recommendation is don’t get rid of your cards. Many Magic players rotate in and out of the game, and the number one complaint I hear from players who rotate back in is them having gotten rid of everything when they rotated out.
>Magic might not be what you need right now, but maybe a few years from now you’ve changed in ways which makes it something you will enjoy. Or maybe Magic will evolve in a way that speaks to you. The only constant I know is you and Magic will both change. Just leave yourself the possibility of reconnecting.
Mark is sad to see you go.

>cauldron is still 8 tix on MTGO
nope, I'm not getting a playset for more than 20 tix

>>93235301
Mark what about start making good design decisions? Because there are not enough justifications or sad words you can write that justify Nadu, or why cancerous shit like Amalia, Sorin, Grief or The One Ring remain in the game. The only reason is the greed of your Hasbro Overlords faggot.

>>93234015
What is this visualizer

>>93235325
Blame Lauer and Forsythe for Nadu, not me.

>>93235301
Magic WILL recover. Rosewater confirmed it. Magichads win again!

how playable is rainbow humans in pioneer anons?

>>93235454
Less and less these days

>>93235461
damn that's a shame i thought with dusk knight for amalia, containment priest for vampires and the damage you can deal with the synergies would be an acceptable deck

>>93235454
assuming you start the deck with 4x containment priest it should be ok-ish, mono white humans manages to survive so 5c should have a fighting chance if you build it correctly

How viable is rainbow/domain zoo in modern?

>>93235490
viable enough to win games but definitely not top tier anymore

I don't play against 4c and 5c decks.

if the mtg playerbase keeps growing where are these new players coming from

>>93235559
Well you see, when mommy and daddy love each other very much...

>>93235559
Lol anon

>my deck could become tier 1 if wizards bans a couple cards
Ive never seen anyone play my deck so I'm pretty hype for bans

>>93235676
Post your deck, then. I will play it.

i need... netdecks
i need good lists... off meta lists... winner lists
anons... netdecks... not like this...

>>93235707
They absolutely will ban something if not multiple. I think they will do nadu at least but possibly grief, bowmasters, and ring. Hopefully all 4.

>>93235847
4 bans in a row? I have a mouth and i must laugh, anon im willing to bet actual cash money if we even see a ban it will be Nadu and that if we are REALLY lucky

I dont believe all 4, thats just my hope. I believe nadu at least but i think the others have good chances at making it onto the chopping block at the same time. Possibly ring and nadu but i dont expect more than 2 when they do ban.
>>93235869
Pic rel is my deck. Let me keep my copium about it being good though. I havent worked out the sideboard yet since it hasnt seen play in a bit. Just slotted in the titan because it fits well.
