Biggest problem with these kind of ports is that the overall power level takes far too big of a hit. For instance you don't get to play the Werebear/LED engine in the sideboard.

I agree we take a big hit, but remember Modern power level is significantly below that of Legacy, too, so it kind of evens out. Plus, the new cards like Dragon-Scarred Bear help make up for it.

Best part about this monster of a deck is that it won't be a bear to pick up the cards for it. They're all so cheap.

Not for long! I advise selling your house and going all in on Ulvenwald Tracker asap.

this deck is awful.

I would splash blue for Phantasmal Bear, and since you don't have a real purpose for all those Forests, you can even consider running Cavern of Bears.

This is pretty tech in those cases where an opponent is trying to Searing Blood your threat. Pretty much a counterspell on a bear.

Also I'm in love with the Druid's Familiar + Charging Badger combo. Throw in a Giant Growth and the Badger can take out those Goyfs and Rhino's no sweat.

People looking to play this deck should bear in mind that this deck is beary difficult to pilot optimally. Therefore, the bearier of entry to this deck is skill and not cost. However, once you bear the responsibility of getting enough reps in with the deck it should reward you with an unbearably high winrate as you fight through bearly winnable games with nothing but your bear hands.

Badgers? We don't need no stinking badgers!

How about Awaken the Bear?

List need mo Bear Punch!

Runeclaw Bear is strictly better than Grizzly Bears.

And you can run Storm Crow to take out Lingering Souls tokens.

This thread is haha also seconding the notion of bear punch!

Considered it, but it depicts a human becoming a bear (or something like that), as opposed to a bear itself, so it's a no go.

This is addressed in the article.

Cavern of souls to thwart control.

This deck is deck is good... On the kitchen table. I don't know what sort of drugs are you won but I wasted 10 minutes of my life reading your article. You may aswell play modern for 100 years you are not winning anything with it.

Note the date the article went up. It is a joke.

It's funnier if you don't tell him.

Is it possible that April 1st has less significance abroad? His profile says he's from Lisbon.

Need more surrak. Surrak only friends are bears. Surrak punched all the bears. Surrak punched all friends. Surrak tragic man.

I can't believe anyone took this seriously lol. I don't think anyone really would think they broke modern with a bunch of bears lol. Good effort though.

There is so much win in this thread that I don't mind Necroing it so hard. I just bearly can't even...
