  • posted a message on Narset Control Impressions Please
    4 Narset, Enlightened Master

    2 Sarkhan, the Dragonspeaker
    2 Chandra, Pyromaster

    4 Mardu Charm
    4 Crackling Doom
    3 Utter End
    4 Lightning Strike
    2 Magma Jet
    2 Arc Lightning
    2 End Hostilities
    3 Banishing Light
    4 Read the Bones

    4 Temple of Triumph
    4 Temple of Malice
    4 Temple of Silence
    4 Temple of Enlightenment
    4 Temple of Epiphany
    4 Nomads Outpost

    The basic goal is to slow down early aggression with the red burn spells, and basically do as much spot removal as possible to clear the opponents board. And eventually build to playing Narset and swinging into burn to the face or board removal. And Sarkhan as another win con and removal, he can also be cast off Narset.

    I just threw that mana base on there, i really need help with it.

    Anyone have any better ideas for the list? I really want narset control to be a thing.

  • posted a message on Temur Tempo (Tempur? Tempor?)
    When I was looking at temur it def looked like a tempo monster build.

    I was working something like this.

    4 Rattleclaw Mystic
    2 Sylvan Caryatid
    4 savage Knuckleblade
    3 courser of Kruphix
    3 Polukranos, World Eater
    2 Surrak Dragonclaw
    1 Clever Imposter
    2 Stormbreath Dragon


    2 Nissa worldwaker
    2 sarkhan Dragon speaker

    3 Temur Charm
    4 Stubborn Denial
    2 Mindswipe
    2 Crater Claws

    The good thing here is nissa will make your stubborn denial and crater claws work more consistantly, and sarkhan can animate and fight while he is indestructible.

    I feel this deck should focus on getting a fat fellow out, and use the charm mostly to counter, and the denial to mainly hit removal. Your creatures are mostly gonna be bigger and badder then your opponents, your getting one out on turn 3 or 4 with the rattle claw and caryatid, and leaving a blue open for denial. It feels like mono green devotion with counters,

  • posted a message on Which clan for pre-release?
    You guys are nuts, it absolutely matters what clan you pick. Your going to get a seeded pack of that clan, which means your gonna get mana fixing for those colors. and some common/uncommons of those colors. so clearly the best way to choose a clan is to look at the full spoiler, and go through and add up the colors with the most playable common and uncommons, then the clan with the most playable common and uncommon cards. and whatever three color pair has the highest number of limited playable cards, pick that clan to increase you chances of having decent cards.

    When i looked at the spoiler, i saw that white has 12 good limited common and uncommons, blue has 12, black has 13, red has 13, and green has 9. Now these cards are all at common and uncommon levels. so you will be getting most of these. So to increase my chances of getting playable cards, i would pick mardu.

    But thats just an example. im still looking at the spoiler and deciding what cards are most playable, and that i will have the best chance at getting.

    These are mockups, and quite obviously so. They appear to have been made based on the attempts to determine these cards in the other thread. There is no new information here. Please don't post unexplained mockups if you have no idea where they came from or what they are based on.

    I just want him to be over powered, rug hasnt been a thing in a while, as far as standard goes.


    At those hypothetical 7CMC it's harder to make him be a relevant card. Wouldn't you like to see this?

    Surrai, Temur Bear-Puncher
    4GUR
    Legendary Creature - Human Barbarian
    Haste, trample
    Whenever ~ deals damage to an opponent, draw that many cards.
    7/7

    Grin



    HAHA, that feels playable XD

    Play it on 4

    turn 1 elvish, turn 2 rattleclaw face down, turn 3 who cares, turn 4 boom!

  • posted a message on Temur Khan is gonna be 7 CMC?
    If you look at the Khans that have been released.

    Anafenza, 3 CMC
    Sidisi, 4 CMC
    Zergo, 5 CMC
    Narset, 6 CMC

    I hope he doesnt cost 7, I was hopeing he would be the one khan thats over powered, something like a 4 mana 5/5 with an incredible ability. But i can only imagine by looking that he will cost 7.

    If he doest cost 7, i hope his green ability is raised by wolves, maybe he brings two buddies into play.

    I just want him to be over powered, rug hasnt been a thing in a while, as far as standard goes.

  • posted a message on America Control, Why do I never see love for Izzet Staticaster?
    I was looking at several top finishing America control deck lists, and out of at least 13 decks, there was not a single staticaster on the sideboard.

    Why is this? I feel its very powerful against some of the heavily played decks.

    It would be great to bring in against faeries, It kills everything in that deck!

    And for decks like blood moon, that run snapcaster, clique, and master of waves it seems like a blowout.

    And it can possibly do early damage against bw tokens, though I would be reluctant to bring it in during that match up.

    So what am I missing? Why is it never played?

    Well if you have this and goblin rabblemaster you have 3 power swinging tokens, and something for your rabblemaster to do so he doesnt swing and die.
