>>97704871After 2-1 (was 2-0, third game was literally mana flood -> mana screw) comes another 3-0I love this draft so much, bros, i wouldve LOVED this set if it was just kamigawa and not TMNT (even thou i was fan of turtles when i was a child)
>>97708660The pack pile is growing bros, and with it my play points (whatever they do, lol, i dunno for real) too
>>97708621TQ: I really want all modern t1 decks ported to timelessAnd wotc to remove alchemy garbage, i hate that shit so fucking much
>>97708704That sounds more like you want Modern on arena than any changes to timeless in particular.
From a purely theoretical POV, what is meant to be the counter archetype to the "I counter and destroy everything then win with 2 cards" kinda decks? Most counterspells are 2 mana so they trade one-for-one against higher value cards, and getting a creature to stick seems impossible plus they have far better draw and filtering tools so they can fish for all their answers once they read your deck.Pure aggro doesn't work against the azorius variants, maybe burn is better? Or some black deck with constantly resummoning creatures?

>>97708913I actually do have a monoblack discard pile but I just instalose if I'm on the draw/I don't hit a turn 1 discardBut my problem is with Azorius piles that also run removal and stuff like AuthorityMaybe I should just scoop whenever I see an island
I am learning a lot watching Nummy play Magic. Bro is actually really fucking good at Magic.
>>97708875play some control and find out first hand how miserable going second against aggro decks is. counterspell fell out of favour in Modern because 1-mana threats got so good that spending a 2-mana card to counter them just puts you behind.control also hates recursive threats, hand disruption, and cards that they can't remove.not very relevant these days but in theory the ultimate counter is unironically being better at the control mirror (always one of the most skill-testing matchups) and being the 'bigger,' more controlling control deck.
Thread QuestionI don't play these formats. But I would like to have all the missing cards added for "Pioneer".
