Dies to Removal

windstrider

I don't understand what Goblin Heelcutter does when 2 of your "creatures" are several creatures, and then another 3 of your creatures have evasion. Fair enough. My thinking is that it's Dash would activate the Denizen while blanking the best creature on the other side, allowing more of th...

@windstrider - have you tested that list vs any of the standard gauntlet? I was dicking around with something similar but with just the regents it felt too slow. Wondering how a suite of 10 fliers fares because hornet nest does not have reach. . . No testing at all. Literally something I threw toge...

Stupid double post.

Thunderbreak deals with removal pretty well too! Well, yes. Both might be a bit problematic, however. My latest horrible idea. :p [deck=] Lands 23 23 Mountain Creatures 24 4 Lightning Berserker 4 Dragon Fodder 4 Hordeling Outburst 4 Flamewake Phoenix 2 Ashcloud Phoenix 2 Goblin Heelcutter 4 Thunder...

windstrider

Any thoughts on Ashcloud Phoenix being well positioned at the moment?

It fairly well blanks a lot of removal options, and it can kill most of the problematic flying beasties.

windstrider

So, is it time to revisit this idea with new offerings from Dragons?

I'm thinking that [card]Kolaghan's Command[/card], Minister of Pain, Silumgar Assassin, Pitiless Horde, Ultimate Price, and Duress offer interesting possibilities.

There has got to be a viable R/B list that we can brew. There's too many good creatures floating around in those colors.
BR Dragons.
That is certainly an option. Got a link to a good starting list?

I just made a Facebook. Just seeing what comes up when I go to some of my friends' pages makes me think I made a mistake.

The Hide option is a big help when you don't want to see the derp posted by people you once considered friends.

One fundraiser for a GP is enough.

I'm torn between wanting to play a Red Devotion list with a possible splash for something or go with an R/B Aggro list.

Regardless, it seems like tokens are going to be a thing, so token hate is necessary.

windstrider

I still like mono-red devotion and after doing some cursory testing against all the decks that did well at the invitational, I feel confident in saying it's a real deck(pending PT metagame). Have any secrets you care to share? I've been out of standard for so damned long, but Red Devotion looks app...

The problem is every time people tells me what 'Good' Magic content they want, it's inevitably shit that doesn't actually draw in readers. And yes, article length certainly does.

Tune in next week for another exciting episode of Red Deck Puns.

I really hope RDP does not catch on as a title.

windstrider

Saw that. Three paragraphs and two decklists hardly counts as an article.

windstrider

I sent in a few dollars to help you on your way, khaos.

windstrider

True story. I know now from experience that my article I posted today wouldn't even be as good if it weren't for others looking out for my bad writing. It was good in the first place. Editing can't make a bad article great. Editing can help make good writing better. The ideas have to be there first.

windstrider

Tom Martel is a good writer and skilled player, he just turns into a fedora wearing neckbeard when he enters a comment section. It's a real bad look. That's the hard part of all this. I respect his game play. I respect his deckbuilding and meta analysis. His articles are top notch. Apparently, he's...

windstrider

Kait, as usual, you're not wrong. It's a tough pill to swallow, but you're right: asking for money opens you up to some ridicule/jokes/whatevs. I still believe what I'm doing is the right thing. It's my last option and I have to see it through. I'll point something out in your statement here: "...

windstrider

Looks like RDW might be a contender after DTK release.

There's too many great new cards -- Zurgo Bellstriker, Dragon Whisperer, Ire Shaman, and Thunderbreak Regent -- to not try a mono-red build of some kind.

@khaos -- You've sat through business meetings. How can you not be that bored?

I admit I'm trash at limited, but I'm trying to get better. It's just not fun when it's a game of who can play their Mythic first. Sure, in six packs you'll often get one, but there is a huge disparity between Atarka and say, Risen Executioner. And I say that as a player who opened two copies of At...

This weekend I learned that Mythics still poison limited.Thanks Rosewater. Atarka is unbeatable and just back breaking on T5 after T4 Explosive Veg. I felt bad every time I did it. Well, isn't that just a function of a sealed prerelease? I mean 75% of games in my prereleases devolved into "who...

Fixed.

Don't tease me with Falkenrath Aristocrat. That gal was just bonkers.

We had so many good toys to play with Aristocrat, Hellrider, Thundermaw, and Conscripts. Damn, I miss those decks.

Went to prerelease. Chose Kolaghan and built a R/B splash white for Secure the Wastes . Ended up 3-0 and then split for top. Felt good. Damnable Pact , Rakshasa Gravecaller , and Reckless Imp overperformed. Pact won me at least three games outright, and Secure the Wastes is just disgusting as an ins...
