    General Companions, Yay or nay?

    Are cards like Seal of Fire or Executioner's Capsule woth running alongside Lurrus if you consider his Companion clause to be flavor text? Trinket Mage is gone, and I wonder, could anything else make me leave Capsule in the list. Perhaps, I wouldn't cube them at my power level if there wasn't...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    A pity they designed Flail that way. The art on it is awesome, as for me. I wish I could have the artwork of Conqueror's Flail and CMC and text of, say, Bloodforged Battle-Axe on the same card. But I'm not very fond of customs. EDIT: It was too tempting to resist. Maybe, I'll even run it as some...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Conqueror's Flail This has been mentioned here around 60 pages ago. Has anyone collected any data on the card since then? Is it too powerful/fair/garbage?

    Card/Deck Tokens

    So, this is, perhaps, the best I could get. The main mistake was going all-in on tokens plan, forgetting about early creatures that trade or stop the opponent’s aggression. I also added 3 finishers, 2 of which are lords at the same time. The number of token producers has been reduced to 8-10...

    Card/Deck Tokens

    So, as I promised, what I currently have on tokens count. This deck went 1-2. It seemed to be ineffective at swarming the board with tokens. I played with numbers a bit and came up to the quantity which seemed to be optimal - around 12-13 token generators. Another Problem with the deck is it...

    General Fight Club

    Nature's Claim vs. Reclamation Sage I know Sage is the famous "gray-ogre-at-the-very-least", and a Toolbox creature for Birthing Pod and Green Sun's Zenith, but I've seen some lists running Claim instead, even alongside these tutors. Are there some aspects making Nature's Claim better?

    General RNG Tries to Fuck Me Up?

    All right, thank everyone! Now I'm almost sure I've been just applying constructed standards to limited decks.

    General RNG Tries to Fuck Me Up?

    The thing is I don't remember such consistency problems to appear that often in the past. We often did some kind of tests where we created constructed 40-card decks out of our cube card pool and played against each other to get an understanding of, for example, how the ideal/close to idel deck...

    General RNG Tries to Fuck Me Up?

    Here’s a deck from our recent online draft. It did pretty well (2-1), but its pilot complained about some inconsistency. Often his opening hands had, say, no 2 drop or 1 drop, which prevented the player from using all of his mana available each turn. After the draft I decided to make an...

    Card/Deck Tokens

    And how many tokens decks typically appear during th draft? I will write, if any positive results

    Card/Deck Tokens

    I mainly want to support tokens as a black-white archetype, splashing red or green (mostly red). During the previous draft I felt like it's, perhaps, too much support in black-red-white for tokens and trimmed things down, but decided to check out whether I should make even more cuts/stay at this...

    Card/Deck Tokens

    How many token makers would you, guys, recomend to run to make the archetype more or less consistent?

    Card/Deck Cutting Some Excesses

    All right, you convinced me to try out Gingerbrute in the future! Thanks!

    Card/Deck Cutting Some Excesses

    The thing with red section is there're also Signal Pest and Figure of Destiny, which, I guess, could count as red, too. As for Gingerbrute, I don't feel like it's good enough for our power level. Plus, it doesn't contribute to the Modern-feel philosophy. I previously ran Thraben Inspector, but...

    Card/Deck Cutting Some Excesses

    Thank you so much for the feedback! Well, besides Sneak Attack there are also Through the Breach and the less powerful, but, probably, still functional Nahiri, the Harbinger, which were intended to go with Eldrazi. Plus, we have Tooth and Nail, which can create combo with, say, Zealous...

    Card/Deck Cutting Some Excesses

    I know I may be asking a stupid question/the one that has been asked multiple times somewhere in this forum, but We want 3 aggro decks to appear per draft (along with 2 control, 2 midrange and 1 tempo decks). To give them the needed support and make them more or less consistent, we would need...

    Card/Deck land destruction

    I'm almost sure I'll try it out just as a nice tech sooner or later. Bust seems to be good at buttoning the game up when you've reached the superior board state. Somewhat similar to what Ember Swallower was once doing in Standard. Doesn't that "boom-a-fetch" trick feel too disappointing for an...

    Card/Deck land destruction

    I'll try to Rise from the Grave this thread for a moment. Is Fulminator Mage good outside of a devoted LD deck? I'm going to experiment with our land rules in the way which will provide Mage with targets EVERY game (players' mana-bases will consist mostly of non-basics). The reason for why I...

    A Different Approach to Lands

    Thank you for your feedback! We shall try out this idea and post a report about how good it will appear in practice.
