when did you realize that Pioneer turned into crap?for me, it was "all will be one".
What animal would Kaya, Narset, and Sorin turn into if they go to bloomborrow?
>>92598975>Kaya, Narset, and SorinBlack cat, monkey, vampire bat
Ran out of inspiration for kitchen table decks. Wanted to do faeries, wound up switching to Dimir control using Bitterblossom to fill up board, now thinking I'll just lose too much life making faeries and casting black removal, added some lifelink and now it's just a midrange deck which I didn't want.Maybe I'll just build a vamp variant around generating blood tokens or something.
>>92598823Ban Sunfall. It basically made midrange decks unusable on its own.
>>92598893I think somewhere around MoM I just stopped having any fun playing the format (or magic in general). It felt like the decks just autopiloted themselves and tried to do their bullshit faster than your opponent could do it. I just despise the every card is a threat game design that has taken over magic and it's one of the reasons I quit.
>TQFree him.
>>92598975I dont know but i would love FoxJace being a real card instead of a fucking concept
>>92599211Could be just a bonus sheet.
>TQIt's genuinely one of the best works of art MTG ever produced. You've probably heard the bible verse about masquerading as an angel of light, this is a step further. This is a full-on mask-off "yes, we're the evil ones", and the instinctive response is>can I join?
>>92598809>TQI love him.
>>92599244Ah fuck I hope not, if the bonus sheet is full of furry planeswalkers draft is going to be cancer. Hopefully they are only in the special guests slot.
>>92599244my thoughts exactly, that's exactly the kind of treatment I'd expect from a special guests card in a set where you can't have any humans
Nobody around me plays Pioneer, how do I find paper games of this format without a three hour commute?
>>92599733you build some cheap decks (or proxy expensive ones, it doesn't matter) and try to introduce it to whoever might be interested in giving it a try
>>92599733>Nobody around me plays PioneerYou are playing. Ask your LGS owner if they don't want to promote some Pioneer nights.
>>92599733>Nobody ... plays PioneerYeah, essentially
can blue red storm compete in modern? I’ve been working on a list with 0 gifts ungiven but 4 baral, 4 electromancer, 4 pyromancers ascension
>>92598975I dont want to be too basic but Sorin being anything but a bat would be trying to hard to be unique.
>>92599888You want to play a 10 year old version of a deck that's already bad? If you want to Storm in Modern you basically have to Twiddle because then at least your combo engine is untouchable.
>>92599888>can blue red storm compete in modern?yes but it's an uphill battlethe most recent development from the deck was including case of the ransacked lab, which is a cost reducer that doesn't die to creature removal and if you fizzle midway, next turn you just get to go again since every instant/sorcery draws a cardhttps://mtgtop8.com/event?e=53442&d=597189&f=MO
>>92598975Monkey, pangolin, bat.
>>92599554still hope for this and that the planeswalker in bloomburrow turns out to be Grist (unlikely given her future MH3 appearance)
On no planet should a regular Storm deck in Modern not be running this.
To the mono white schizo, I have been dominating in mythic top 1000 with a mono white deck. Using that new outlaw medic and Transmutation font to get Portal to Phyrexia out. Today already have been beating SSScel mono red decks, Orzov lifegain, Mononlack Skeletons, and Domain ramp. Only lost once in 7 games to an Azorius control build. Mono white is no longer cucked.

>>92600503Meathook also costs seven+ mana to kill any large threats, and doesn't exile them.
>>92600020We know the Planeswalker in Bloomburrow is Ral. Unlike the Jace one, this one had a name shown for it (Ral, Crackling Wit) which isn't a Ral card name that's existed prior.
>>92600470MH3 will do well almost surely. ACR I have no clue if the appeal of UB will overcome the disdain for less cards.
>>92600525or you can play 0 and threaten damage to the opponent should he wrath the board

>>92600593This is also literally the first time Ral's had a card outside of Ravnica.

>>92600545So does everyone visiting the plane get turned into critters like how OTJ gave everyone hats?
>>92600425I’m economically illiterate but these seem like good numbers. Makes me think Williams didn’t jump from a sinking ship like I once thought. Wonder what really happened
>>92600651>I’m economically illiterate but these seem like good numbersGonna stop you right there. This isn't economics, it's finance, and finance is just mathematics with currency symbols at the front of numbers. Economics is the study of cause and effect.
>>92598809>TQ
>>92600630At the very least it happens to planeswalkers, similar to how they shrink down when visiting Segovia. No word on Omenpaths, but it could go either way, because Omenpaths are now 'part' of the Multiverse so maybe the Multiverse accommodates planes like Bloomburrow and Segovia now with regards to non-Planeswalker travel.
>>92600659Economics is just sociology with numbers.
>>92600673Invasion of Segovia shows that they don't, the Phyrexian soldier was still normal size on it.
>>92600674Nothing about the study of cause and effect implies the use of numbers.
>>92600691Numbers are used to quantify and visualize this study.
>>92600701You have no idea what you're talking about.
>>92600686That was BEFORE Omenpaths were 'normal'. You could finagle an explanation along the lines of "when Phyrexia was using them it was unnatural but the Multiverse has since incorporated Omenpaths into its very being because the Multiverse can just Do That". I doubt we'll see any Omenpath'd characters on Bloomburrow anyway, though.

>>92600981In ~10 years when Hasbro goes under can we crowdfund buying wotc?
>>92600792Ignoring short term profit margins due to the usual restructuring retardation (they aren't going lean, they are just mindlessly firing good people)... 5% yoy revenue increase with a major UB release (that probably eats most of the plus due to licensing costs) isn't looking good at all imo.>>92601028Hasbro won't be going under, they will just (severely) underperform the market (imo, not financial advice and shit).
>>92599244It confirmed is.
Do you guys ever comb through your bulk cards, and then find gems in your own bulk?I was going through some bulk just now, getting ready to through the bulk away (to make room for more, newer cardboard), and i just found a Snuff Out! I also found two Questing Phelddagrifs (from the Secret Lair. I bought the Secret lair as a budget way to get two Craterhoofs then I discarded the rest of the Secret Lair to my bulk pile and forgot about it. Then over the years I am now am way more of a group-hug player.)

Can I please get some feedback on this idea for a modern deck? I played something like this in Standard back a decade or so ago, and wanted to try playing it again at my store's modern FNM. I am pretty out of touch with the meta, but it seems like my biggest concerns are early aggro and hand disruption. I am sure it isn't Tier 1 quality, but would a list like this be able to play with modern decks or would it get smoked off the table? The idea is to disrupt, stall, and outlast the first couple turns, before clearing the table and grinding out a win via card advantage thanks to karmic guide and reveillark recursion. Wall of Omens and Dawnbringer Cleric seem like they can stall out Ragavans. If anybody has any suggestions for cards that have been printed in the last decade or so, that would be swell too. I have been pretty out of touch, like I said. Of course I will probably throw in a couple of Cavern of Souls and Hallowed Fountains, but the mana base is very basic right now.

>>92601407Foglios are kinky indeed
>>92601423>would a list like this be able to play with modern decks or would it get smoked off the table?it would get smoked, modern is extremely fast at the momentwhat you're building here seems a lot more in line with pauper than any other format
>RETURNING PLAYER HER
If you add all the metagame shares of all SSS decks together it's basically the best deck in Pioneer.
>>92601574meds
>>92601266Well they haven't actually lost money yet. But as soon as they do, they'll definitely go broke.
>>92599025Lmao remember when Bitterblossom was good enough to play?
>>92601683>"Give me Bitterblossom for one Modern event and I'll show you why it's banned."- Pro Tour Khans of Tarkir Champion Ari Lax, 2012
Requisition raid seems beyond busted in limited>look up draftisms tier list>bottom tier
>>92601423If ragavan and the elementals (Grief, Fury, Subtlety, Solitude) didn't exist in modern then you could probably play something like this, but only with Leyline shenanigans since those busted 5c decks.For a better reference, even something like Grixis Shadow's Shadow can't compete in the current meta. It's just too slow.Don't worry though, the next modern set will make the format play like legacy with turn 1 wins
>>92601788Modern is basically turn 2 wins because you immediately know whether or not you won by then
>>92601801>>92601788>>92601568That's disappointing. I was hoping that I would be able to use an upgraded standard deck, like I remember it way back in like 2013. Just out of curiosity, what makes the format so fast? Is it possible to plan ahead and break/interrupt the speed? I saw that leylines get played a lot, so I figured the mainboard Dawnbreaks could could bust up those.
>Returning player hereIf you ever played Magic at any competent level you could look at any current tier deck list and instantly know how fucked things are and why. You would not need it explained.
And now the returning player is asking time wasting questions.
>>92601868Me again. Could I pack Leyline of Sanctity's mainboard to stop being ThoughtSeized/Griefed? Or would that be a waste of a slot for too little of a payoff?
>>92601868>Just out of curiosity, what makes the format so fast?it's hard to explain without showing you a bunch of new cards that came out in the last 5 years or so but I can sum it up to free spells and cheating on mana
>Returning player hereWhoever noticed the "returning player" thing is a hero
there are some Man-made Horrors 3 floating around in reddit, but they are far too blurry to read
>>92601932I looked at top 8 decks and saw a lot of things abusing graveyard reanimation and the evoking free elementals. I thought that if there was some sort of one-sided graveyard lock I could utilize that, but I couldn't find anything like that. Leyline might stop Thoughtseize + double-Grief t2.
>>92601920If you enjoy this style of UW creature deck I recommend looking up UW Emeria lists. Fair warning that the deck is significantly off-meta, but I've enjoyed playing with it in the past, it brings a similar feel to the Mistmeadow/Mulldrifter gameplan just with cards that are better suited to the current cardpool.
>>92601962oh shit
>>92601962Looks to be just the face commanders.

>>92601962Its the commander decks, so likely won't have many (if any) of the main set cards.
>>92601962is the Queen of Vesuva named "Omo"?
>>92601979don't worry anon, SSS fixes the elementals being in every deck, instead SSS will be in every deck now.the elementals are just another hogaak that have astroturfed the format.disabling the graveyard really doesn't do that much in modern because the decks are abusing the ETB trigger and can avoid the graveyard entirely do it.

>>92602093What is SSS?
>>92601962>all commander cardsfucking prick, open the card packs and show us the goodstuff
>>92602163A recent design mistake that's slowly taking over Pioneer and Standard.
>>92602155It's for commander so you can have all the devoid eldrazi in one deck
>>92602181If rules text can let you have a planeswalker for a commander, rules text can make a card with pips on it be colourless.

>>92602155I found a clearer pic on reddit.Ulalek Fused Atrocity5 color hybrid mana like the scarecrow kingwhenever you cast an eldrazi spell you (may pay two colorless mana?) If you do copy all spells you (c?) then copy all other (?) and triggered abillities you control. (You may choose new targets for the copys) Mana abilities can't be (?)
>>92602261Don't worry it's going to get banned.
>>92602278Doesn't him having Devoid mean you can only run colourless cards in his deck?
>>92602279Yeah, just like Amalia and Ripper right?
>>92602178Why did he need flying?
>>92602307And haste
>>92602300I don't think you realise just how good SSS is, anon. Its combined metagame share in Pioneer already puts it as the best thing to be playing in the format.
>>92602278Wait this one is the clearest.whenever you cast an eldrazi spell you may pay two colorless mana If you do copy all spells you control then copy all other activated and triggered abillities you control.You may choose new targets for the copys Mana abilities can't be copied.2/5
>>92602289no hybrid colors make the color identity, no matter the devoid
>>92602289Color =/= color identity. Color identity only cares about the symbols on the cards and the little color pip for 0 cost/flip cards, it ignores rules text like devoid. Because he's got all the mana symbols, he's 5 color. It's the same reason Golos was a 5 color goodstuff vomit deck in EDH before its ban; despite the card being colorless, it's still a 5 color commander because it has all 5 mana symbols for one of its abilities.
>>92601962And somehow leakers STILL can't take a sharp photo with all the technology we have available.
>>92602345>>92602349So how come Daretti's rules text is allowed to break the rules of the format but Devoid isn't?
>>92601962>commander decks from MH3Just something for legacy players to shit their pants on.
Post I stole from reddit“Cards I can kinda make out that haven't been mentioned yet:1.White Pyroblast, but appears to say either monocolored, multicolored, or some other qualifier rather than another specific color.2.Iyoti, Moag Ancient makes a 1/1 Forest Dryad for each time you've cast your commander from the command zone. It also gives a buff each combat to something equal to Iyoti's power.3.The 8/6 Eldrazi lets you choose odd or even, then prevents blocking from creatures with mana values either equal to or the opposite of what you picked. It also gives Bloodthirst 2 or 3 to colorless creatures you control/cast?4.2CC spell on the left side of image three is a colorless confluence. I can only make out the confluence text and that the third mode adds C.5.Spawnbed Protector is a 6/8 for 7 that returns an Eldrazi creature card from the graveyard to your hand and makes two Eldrazi Scions during each of your end steps.6.Inversion Behemoth costs 2CC and lets you swap P/T of any number of creatures at the beginning of combat on your turns.7.Ulamog's Dreadsire, the most legible card, is a vigilant 10/10 for 10 that makes 10/10 Eldrazis and has Ward - Sack a creature that isn't a zero drop.8.Eldrazi Immunity: Gives a target creature Protection from each color until end of turn, but can be overloaded for 4C.”“Omo, queen of vesuva (2 g/u)Whenever Omo queen of vesuva enters the battlefield or attacks, you may put an everything counter on up to one target land and one target creature.Each land with an everything counter on it is every basic land type in addition to its other typesEach creature with an everything counter on it is every creature type in addition to its other types.1/5”
>>92602369Being colorless doesn't change your color identity
>>92602369It doesn't break the rules. Color identity is different. You can't run Ghostfire in a mono-blue deck
>>92602398Part 2“I think it's:___, the Undertaker 1BRG Legendary Creature - Human Warrior ~ gets +X/+0, where X is the greatest power among creature cards in your graveyard. Whenever ~ attacks, each player mills a card.

I hate Commander, but I do love the Antichrist.
>>92602278>>92602333ULAmog koziLEK, fused AtrocityI see, wotc started to become self aware of how shit the channel fireball idea was and managed somehow to revive Kozilek and Ulamog now fused into a single entity... Not a bad self correcting there.Ok, at least MH sets are good to unfuck the current lore, I will give wotc that.
>>92602369Because Color and Color Identity are different things. Multi-Color cards are colored Multi-Color, but their Color Identity is the combination of all colors referenced on the card. Similarly, the DMU kickers (picrel) all list for a different color in their kicker, which means that their Color Identity includes two colors.
>>92602369Devoid doesn't break the rules of the format. Being colorless doesn't change a cards color identity.As previously stated, color does not equate to color identity. A card being colorless has no bearing on its color identity. Pic rel is a colorless card with a 5c color identity.
>>92602398>“Omo, queen of vesuva (2 g/u)>Whenever Omo queen of vesuva enters the battlefield or attacks, you may put an everything counter on up to one target land and one target creature.>Each land with an everything counter on it is every basic land type in addition to its other types>Each creature with an everything counter on it is every creature type in addition to its other types.>1/5”Shit.

>>92602473Well yeah she's a changeling/land tribal commander she's nor meant to be competitive The most viable of the cards here seem to be the eldrazi but we still have to see if an Eldrazi winter style deck is viable in this set before we really judge them
>>92602433Modern Horizons isn't necessarily lore-compliant, but it's probably like "some remnant essence of the two fused somewhere else because the Titans always just have to exist in SOME form".

>>92603863Well, Manmade Horrors making more bloodmoon/magus effects, now on blue. It is bonkes but should help the format once a leyline ban happens (so in 2 years)
>>92603863>it’s on a creature Yawn, next
>>92603863epic
>>92603863These effects only lead to non-games. Why is this being printed? Did Delver decks really need a Magus that pitches to Force of Will?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dXl-dMGSULsI wish there was a Magic Arena for Premodern... without the dumb animations.
>>92604019Buy an ad faggot.
>>92603044Nobody cares. It’s still all Domain and Esper midrange hell despite what Arena BO1 says. Even SSS can’t crack those two decks. Mono white still forever cucked. Rotation won’t be any better either.
>>92603863>Blood moon effectAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>92604024Do you really believe Mengu posts on 4chan? Think before submitting.
>>92603863It's a bloodmoon in blue, but it's one a creature. Hm. Has a relevant creature type too.Hard to judge Don't luke them making a non red bloodmoon effect though
>>92603863Just why...
>>92603863>merfolk can easily maindeck 3~4 copies of thisamulet and tron players in shambles holy fuck
Imagine if they made a cycle of them so every colour could Blood Moon you LMAO
>>92602240AI generated background
>>92603863Very nice. Love me prison pieces.
>>92603863So this is it...3rd impact beginning.
>>92603863BASED BASED BASED BASED BASED
>>92604242You can spot the entrenched losers because they all see this card and spew bullshit about Blood Moon being a healthy card.
>>92603863>Turns off your mutavaultsYeah I don't think so chief
>>92603863interesting that they made the cost 1UU as opposed to 2U so you can't ancient tomb chrome mox it on turn 1
>>92604258Blood moon is a strong card but it's kept in check by being in redGiving Blue a native blood moon effect on a relevant creature type is extremely dangerous, beyond dangerous. Maybe it being on a creature keeps it on check, but that thing can get out of hand
>>92603863It all returns to nothingIt all comes Tumbling downTumbling downTumbling dooooooooown
>>92604305Maybe this will be the card that finally makes people admit that Blood Moon effects are a complete disgrace and never should've been printed.
>>92598893Honestly, somewhere during the beginning. Field of the Dead used to be Pioneer legal while bolt still isn't.
why did blue get a blood moon effectwhy does blue get everything
>>92604379The fact that Red got it in the first place is an oddity. Blue's historically been the colour with the most "fucking with mana by making things into Islands" effects.
>>92604379BM shouldve been green originally
>>92603863Notably this cannot be played off a Sol Land + fast mana, but it does pitch to FoW. However if you dye everything blue, unlike Moon effects, your opponent can't cast Bolt etc off their now-mountains
i'm terrified one day a suit in a board meeting will ask something like "just how badly does reprinting the reserved list expose us?" and everyone shrugs and we end up with something like Alpha Remastered
mh is the best kind of entertainment because I love dark comedy
>>92604431That would be based though
>>92604431Reserved list cards as expeditions/masterpieces is unironically a not so retarded way for wizards to boost sales for sets. (imagine if they did it for MH4 lmao, it would sell more than LotR)
>>92604450>because I love dark comedyThat’s pretty much what White human art is now
>>92604450That new magus of the islands is a fucking testament to how shit the game design has become. Blood moon effects are already complete cancer, what could go wrong with giving blue access to them?
I don't care. Not Pioneer legal.
>>92604450Then prepare some popcorn because the show is just starting... The shitshow i mean Lmao.
>how DARE merfolk be a relevant archetype REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>NO NO NO NO YOU CAN'T JUST TURN OFF MY DOMAIN I NEED TO CAST MY LEYLINE BINDINGS!
>NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO IS THAT A FAMILIAR MECHANIC??? ON A FAMILIAR CARD TYPE???>AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I'M GOING CRAZY
>>92604519Just wait until you see what bullshit they print for 5c decks
Haha wouldn't it be really funny if someone picked up their Boseiju with Daze hahaha
desu moonfolk isn't as bad as everyone's making it out to be. blue is the most relevant color in legacy and merfolk is barely even a deck in modern.
>>92604554Who gives a fuck about the tribe?
>>92603863>Not harbinger of the moon with a merfolk and a blue moon in the artFlavor fail.
All the faggots laughing will be the same kind of retards crying here after a month>NOOOOOOO MERFOLKS STRONK>20% OF THE META>BLOOD MOON EFFECT IN BLUE WAS A MISTAKEMark my works.
>>92604611My deck doesn't run a greedy manabase, imperial, can you say the same?
>basic lands in sideboard to counter new blood moons that every color will getBased MaRo solving the fetch land problem
Here we go, the entrenched competitive grognards who won't just admit that a card is a bad design. Your deck should simultaneously account for the existence of Blood Moon, Chalice of the Void, Ensnaring Bridge, and Rest in Peace without diluting its own gameplan down to the point where you can't beat decks that don't prepare for those cards.
>>92603272https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=foil+tarmogoyf&_sacat=0&_sop=15&rt=nc&LH_Sold=1&LH_Complete=1>foil tarmogoyfs are $5 cards now...
>>92604691>Selling your Goyfs to get the money together to buy Fable Shaman tokens
The fucking Merfolk Flash lord that has a built in counterspell mode is one of the most egregious design mistakes I've ever seen in any card game and people just let it pass. Now they can flash that faggot in and then play Ocean Moon on a stick.Does anyone else not see that after WotC finally got embarrassed about Humans being pushed they've neutered Humans giving them fuck all for 5 years now but htey're absolutely diarrhea SHITTING out busted cards for every other tribe? Vampires, Merfolk, and Birds are pushed as FUCK now.
>>92604736>they've neutered Humans giving them fuck all for 5 yearsHumans remain the most printed creature type and I'm not even going to bother double checking since it's so fucking obvious. The entire reason why Humans was so strong was because the spread of effects printed on the tribe is ridiculous. You've got disruption, Thalia, bounce effects, hasty fliers, all sorts of shit that other tribes couldn't even dream of.
>>92602369rules text isn't breaking the rules. as everyone said, colour identity is different than both colour and rules text. though, there is a single card that does refer to colour identity in its rules text.
>>92604736I will believe you when i see A SINGLE FUCKING GOOD ZOMBIE, anon. And i mean a really fucked up shit, not Champion level trash. Until that fuck off.
>>92604820Zombies are a cursed tribe because the default zombie token is a 2/2... if zombies were a 1/1 or 1/2 or they went all in on Decayed maybe you'd have something but they fucked up at the baseline and now zombies will never be good lest they be gamebreaking. You picked the wrong horse zomboy.
You're gonna feel real stupid when it turns out they're doing a full cycle and the black one is a zombie.
>>92604855They're not unless they remake Magus of the Moon as a goblin
>>92604787And that card only references it because it's a Commander card, because other cards with that text don't have that and still don't affect colour identity. Realistically it should just be reminder text, but hey.
>>92604883Or... Apparently it does. Huh. I didn't know that. Thought most things like that wouldn't affect identity but I guess it's equivalent to colour indicators.
What the fuck do zombies do?Every other tribe is good because they do something.>Humans do everything>Goblins have multiple angles of attack>Merfolk have flash, blue tempo shit, then become unblockable>Vampires just have actual cheating now and a strong midrange game>Elves make big mana and have access to CoCo and Chord>Elementals have free spells and tons of synergyWhat the fuck do zombies do? Do they go wde? Do they go tall? Do they evade? Do they play the long game? Do they have midrange? WotC has no idea how this archetype is supposed to play. The best zombie card ever printed is Field of the Dead, which has nothing to do with zombies. That's how bad this tribe is.
>>92604883>And that card only references it because it's a Commander cardand daretti was a commander card, too. has nothing to do with anything. even non commander cards are referring to commander terms and aspects now. >Realistically it should just be reminder textno it shouldn't, transguild courier's colour identity is 5c. rules text makes it relevant and able to put fallaji wayfarer in any Gx commander deck. like how daretti can only be a commander because of rules text that allows a planeswalker in the command zone.
>>92604922they go wide, reanimate, and have a lot of lords. they've got gravecrawler and that is enough reason to make a zombie deck for me.
>>92604922Zombies are supposed to be value based with the graveyard, either on dying effects or reanimate effects
>2024 Q1 is down for wotc>At the same day MH3 cards leak to the publiclmao, not even subtle.
>>92604922You are a faggot anon.
>>92603863merfolkbros...
>>92604560Are you retarded?
If every color gets a blood moon that's going to fuck the format so hardBasically every deck in modern run non-basic lands over basics. They can't function without hyper efficient mana bases. Like 75% of the decks in modern stop functioning if every deck can side in a hate card and turn their game off I pray to god it's just going to be a single blue card because it will be a true format rotation if there's more
>>92602398Looks like Omo Queen of Vesuva actually reads>Each land with an everything counter on it is every land type in addition to its other types.
>>92605144>they are making rangeling a real thinggoddamn
>>92605158Probably never gonna exist innately on a land, and this is a Commander card anyway.
>>92605138It's probably just Blue, it's an effect that 'makes sense' for Blue compared to the rest. Green can make everything 'ALSO' forests, I don't think Urborg is actually something Black should be doing, and White just doesn't fuck with lands like that at all.
>>92605138BEHOLD
>>92605169>Probably never gonna exist innately on a landdon't put it past them. we absolutely might see a land with "rangeling." maybe not keyworded, but a land that says "this land is all land types." would likely be balanced to have a lot of heavy drawbacks, so as not to break tron lands, but it is possible. they print bullshit i wouldn't have thought theyd be willing to print all the time.>this is a Commander card anyway.eternal legal
>>92605196Who the fuck cares about Legacy and Vintage.
>>92605206goodbye
>>92604393Everything makes sense when you consider that blood moon was first printed in the mid 90’s. They had no fucking clue what they were doing yet. At the time, this was a way to “even the odds” against players with a full collection of 40 duals
>>92605138We were not ready for Manmade Horros
>>92603863Should have been white
>>92603863>blood moon that pitches to forceLegacy was the only good format. Why is wotc trying to kill it?
People are still playing MtG?Why?
>>92603863Where is my 1GG Nonbasics are Forests 2/2 Elf?
>>92605877Some anons just want to see the world burn to ashes uh?
>>92605841I have friends that play it and we like some of the settings for TTRPG campaigns. We run un-set cards that we're cool with playing because we know we aren't trying to run Ponza on each other.
{1}{C}ArtifactAll nonbasic lands are Wastes.
>>92605138This is price of not banning triomes.
>>92605138>Basically every deck in modern run non-basic lands over basics. They can't function without hyper efficient mana bases.oh no greedy shitnigger decks cant slam leylineswhat a tragedy
>>92606222fpbp
This will just make monored, a color that has been getting exponentially more oppressive every year, even more oppressive because it won't have to adapt while everyone playing more than 1 color will get fucked in the ass.Monored is way too overtuned as a color now and it's kind of ruining the game.
Garfield never intended for decks to effortlessly run more than 3 colors.
>>92606255Garfunkel expected people to only buy 20 packs maximum in their entire lifetime and only ever gain new cards through trading or buying packs so shut the fuck up
>>92606300Don't forget the idea was that players would acquire cards by playing for ante, which was a policy so dumb it formed the premise for (post-s0) YuGiOh.
>>92606086Make it an Eldrazi Mount or no sale.
>>92605841Because despite it all, the core game is still fun.
>>92605138
Clearly the solution here is to ban Island.
>>92606511What core game?Magic's core is resources.Resources matter less now than they ever have because every deck has retarded gas and cheat mechanics, and even if they didn't the card quality is so high it's degenerated the gameplay to "do you have it?" every turn.
>>92602398I think the pyroblast is butthole mana due to being more restrictive. A 1 generic or 1 white blast effect for monocolored would be mental misstep tier played everywhere.Also this is a great delver and merfolk card. biggest issue with blood moon has been shutting yourself off from murktides. this lets you run 1 basic mountain and still be able to cast everything.
>>92606648Yeah because Delver and Merfolk need all the help they can get
>>92598809ppl who play mtg still are part of why card games suck dick. I hate you all.
just bought into the epic storm on mtgo, here's to hoping manmade horrors 3 doesn't rotate the whole deck away
WHERE IS THE ELF SUPPORT THAT WILL LET IT LIVE THROUGH BOWMASTERS AND PLAGUE ENGINEER WHERE IS IT WOTC
>>92606875We already have Clancaller and Sylvan Anthem. Just draw better.
>>92606844the storm is rarely meta but it's also rarely at an unplayable state, people still play basically old ANT lists and manage to get enough wins to pop up in league dumps sometimes
>>92606936im looking forward to play some leagues with TES but right now I'm really awful at turning a good hand into a win on turn 1 or 2. Feels like I need to take a whole course to play this deck but im having fun just goldfishing in single player
>>92604342>>92604305>>92604258>Nooooooooo! I have to play some basics and can't play three colors for free reeeeeeee
>>92606921No, I want a 1 mana toughness lord and a 2cc elf that gives all elves ward 1
Just run basics what's the big deal? don't they need to run basics to use it as well?
>>92607023Assuming these were elves that cost {G} and {G}{G}, would these be playable?
>>92606921>play a 2cmc 1/1 to counter Bowmasters
>>92607104The left sure. The right needs to be a 2/3.
>>92605138Good. There should be consequences / counterplay for 3, 4 and 5 colour soup decks.
>>92605138>Modern players have gotten so used to mega-greed fetch/shock/triome manabases that even the concept of having to actually play some fucking basics is apocalyptic
>>92607444>mfw my kitchen table decks run perhaps 6 non basics max.
>>92607444As someone who jammed Skred Red back in the day, moon effect do not cause people to run more basics. They just encourage answers to Moon and nongames when the answer isn't drawn. I imagine this causes more people to play Dismember than it does to run basics.
>>92607444>"Just play some basics"Just draw the out while your opponent's deck functions at full power until you do.
>>92607585lets have even more 1 mana op removal
>>92607577>>92607585It's like poetry
Just play 1-2 color decks instead of 4-5 color greed piles lol
is the meta going to be dominated by monocolored decks? I've been training for this my whole life...
>>92607793Just monored and monoblack right?
>>92607807monowhite and monoblue_
>>92607816I'm a dirty Arena player but I don't see that many monoblue players in Mythic at least. Monowhite I forgot about, but it feels like they're rarer in the upper tiers.
>>92607825>Modern>ArenaNo shit you don't see them
>>92607793Reject multi-color mutt decks. Embrace mono-color purity.
>>92605138>there are soulless golems in this thread RIGHT NOW that actually like memedern being raped by 3+ color goodstuff vomit piles

>>92608573>Open channel>Cube immediately becomes worse because drawing it means the game is over
>>92608771I drafted channel + emrakul once in vintage cube and went 0-3 cause the rest of my deck was so bad that I basically depended on drawing these exact 2 cards in the first 2 turns to win
