Dies to Removal

Too late, is in a few videos already MDU. Channel Fireball has a video preview where they were talking about it, I can't remember the other videos where I've seem it though. Mostly related to Vintage and Modern though, I don't think I have seem anything related to Standard about that card though.

I got married yesterday, at am local time, in court. My wife got really pissed at me, because I was playing a standard daily, instead of planning the ceremony. Real story yo... Worse: I lost 1-3, she wouldn't let me focus and while I left to get some food, she "played" for me, conceding 2 ...

I found this thread after a member recommended it to me, after I lost a mirror match. Much thanks to him =)

Man, I suck, but I'm lucky. My opponents are even worse. Just had a dude block my 1/1 token with a Master of Waves, just to take a Skullcrack in the head, message on the board:"?" and realize that his protection from red was shot down, to concede not the game, but the match. Thanks for the...

By what definition of good? I'm sure Zem doesn't kick babies or anything.

Dude, we all know you gotta get the meat soft before the barbecue. What's best way to do so, then kicking?

Doesn't EIdolon do some work against blue? Shortening the game against a deck that needs to drop a 4-drop to win seems ok. Obviously Firedancer is good. 2/3/3 EoGR/SFD/YP? Anger? Take my opinion with a grain of salt, but here it is: For me, my life total matter against blue devotion, because once t...

Chris, just make a list like this: Creatures (*type amount) - list the creatures and quantities Spells (*amount of spells) -list spells and quantities Lands (*amount of lands) -list lands and quantities Sideboard (15) - list cards and quantities Just be sure to put a space in between each category....

This is what I'm using right now and well, has been working for me so far, on modo: Lands (23) 4 Mutavault 2 Boros Guildgate 4 Sacred Foundry 4 Temple of Triumph 9 Mountain Creatures (11) 4 Young Pyromancer 3 Satyr Firedancer 4 Chandra's Phoenix Spells (24) 4 Boros Charm 4 Lightning Strike 4 Magma J...

I need to stress that Tajic does not improve any of the big three matchups (mono U, B.s. devotion and control) in any way that I would dare call significant! It's a fun card I like playing with and he has moments when he shines, but I might have love goggles on. He is however fun against any aggro,...

I need to get something out of my chest: I am playing mono black devotion. I am so, so sorry, I just needed something else besides burn, was getting tired of the game with "just" burn. Ok, with that out of the way: Is Assemble the Legion AND Tajic something viable or would it be over-kill?...

Hold Skullcrack up I imagine

The 4th Mutavault is just too ensure you have a smooth flow of mana during aggro MUs (more lands = less mulls) and it help you hit 5-6 lands in the control mirrors so you can actually do something while your holding up Skullcrack. - - - - - - - - - - - Anyone who follows my YouTube Channel would ha...

practice makes perfect, and even then, there is variance. But mono B should be one of if not your best matchup (granted its much harder now that they are prepared) I appreciate the motivation man, I mean it. I'm way too rusty, so I really need to practice some more. Eventually I'll get back in shap...

Sometimes I wonder if I'm playing burn right or if my play style is that different. Dang, maybe is time for me to either A)Learn to burn or B)play something different. And for reals, I'm not being sarcastic. Mono black is by far my worse match up and my win/loss ratio against it is ridiculous... And...

Me? Well, I haven't played Burn in my meta beyond a couple of FNMs and those were months ago (before JOU), but when I did run it I played a full set of Reckoners in my sideboard along with two Spark Trooper (would not play Spark Trooper now though). Reckoner is a little worse than it was before sin...

I love Val because even though he goes upstairs for 3, he also goes downstairs for more. :unibrow: That's a low blow yo... Ok, seriously though, I just have a humongous sense of humor, everything for me is a joke, so I couldn't pass on a chance of making a pink and green signature, with a reason to...

So, from the last couple pages, my understanding is that to don't get yourself mixed up in the forums, use a lot of fucking "bad" language, make a pink and green signature and get famous playing magic. Hmm, I have a lot of fucking work to do on that last one...

I can't wait for our planeswalker from M15!
Oh, wait a second...

I'll just leave this here: https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-0t-jn51X7cU/UWJOo84UKcI/AAAAAAAAAsM/8Tz_okCJuMo/w1334-h1166-no/mtg_metal_wheel_big.png (I think there is a typo, though!) Splash of white has been really good this season, but man, that wheel made me want to splash blue! Izzet, here I co...

Purp, just out of curiosity, in that case wouldn't it be more profitable playing Glaring Spotlight? At least you can use against G/R as well, to take care of those Sylvian and attack their mana source, being less of a "dead card"? Well, I guess an argument could be made for Pay No Heed as ...

Is really funny when the control player taps out for a Sphinx's and you Wear//Tear their Elixir. Go ahead, win now haha

Something a little off topic, but you know what I hate the most?Control players and their habit of saying "ok" or "sure" or even worse: "Yeah, you have permision". I'm not asking for permission, I'm hitting you for 4 damn it. Don't have a counter then take, but that is ...

Congratulations on the 4-2 man. May not be my place to say, but I will anyway, alcohol has the best of me tonight. But on match 4, game 2 (well, in any game actually), something I always do is hold my burns in tight situations and specially end-games, to use as a answer to whatever they have. Slam b...

Hmm, Friday Night Magic (Big deal, I know right?) using Shouta's list, here are the results so far. Round 1: White Black Mid Range Game 1: Opponent got stuck on mana, so was really easy to burst him out and that escalated fast. Round 5 he was done. Game 2: Slow start for him, great start for me. Sta...

If you're worried about aggro, go with burn and instead of the Eidolon, add Young Pyromancer. Sligh deck has no chance against a descent hand. I'm a noob and still haven't lost to that deck, out of at least 7-8 match up's.

Nice videos Elricity. That comment of the control player, on the video of June 15th made me giggle. I though I was the only slow burn player out there, but from what I've seem, most the of good burn players take their time to think about their actions and close the game.

He surely must've been running hot in order to get 1 of 2 Charms to win Game 2 and/or Game 3 against those decks. :lol: Well he's going to side in Deicide to take care of that pesky Thassa which is apparently a big problem for Burn. People in the /r/spikes thread are upset that zem didn't give his ...
