Thank you , field of ruin is just too good , i never felt like a worse ghost quarter during the gp , infact , tron usually get into tron and got slanded by FoR quiete easy ,also seize is necessary when we are on draw , the only real plan against tron is to buy time and surgical their lands ; spectrall got worse with FoR and i decided that RtA id a better tokens generator cause we can be more agressive in early turns , comboing with legion's and land a gideon on turn 3 . the little gideon is incredible , so many times he locked the opponent and closed the game , infact ,my build is studied to be aggressive but can switch in the controlish mode quite easally tanks the planeswalkers , for the example i won the game 1 against bant knigtfall with gideon junior and senior , plus 1 on their 20/20 reliquiary , until i got the game. all 3 gideon mmodes are good and the opponent have to kill him and other brothers in order to win the game.

soooo , day one i got quite good , day 2 i was heavy 'cause french food ,( memo.never never never eat french .) , infact i was distracted against titanshift and i made some mistakes ,bant eldrazi scouted me ,he won the dice alanded string into EE in turn 1 g1 ... ok,,
the deck is really strong , the 2 gideon overperformed every time , the pseudo combo FoR surgical is good to match trons and other stufs ..
the 4 color traverse is a good mu but i ended to mull at 5 every turn ...
CYA ALL
hi , i went 2-2 drop , turn 1 i won 2-1 against dreadge , g1 loss , g2 /g3 won , turn 2 2-0 won against uw controll quite easy mu , turn 3 1-2 affinity ,in 3 games i saw 5 lands after mull to 5 each game ... i get really angry cause the location , we were 47 people in a small store basement , t4 i get 0-2 to eldrazi tron every goddamit time in the decisive turn when he could die to my race he topdecked his one card all is dust , soo i ragequitted .
the list is quite solid liliana is great to afford against eldrazi , after the pptq i did some games with guys around and i won almost every time 2 games on 3 , is quite good in general and give us another "controllish" plan .
hi , yesa the split is for all the cards like company , eldrazi stuff n scapeshift , personally i'd like to play some disenchant effect but i don't think i need them at the moment,today i made some difference to side ,i added 1 liliana instead lost legacy and 2 damping Matrix instead stony silence , because liliana is more versatle and damping Matrix hit also endringer and coco creatures ,affinity is Always a great mu so i don t think we need stony
Hi to all , Yesterday i went 3-3 a pptq with 67 people, 1-2 with bant knightfall ,g1 win by spectrall procesion race suported by Zealous persecution and intangible virtue , g2 lost by knight combo , i missed the chance to pte him in my turn he untapped and i forgot about sejiri steppe ,g3 screwd ... ;turn 2 2-0 against affo , i did the usually things and he lost to a resolved lingering souls and a pte on master of aetherium , turn 3 0-2 eldra-tron , g1 i take him to 2 life but i didn t find any virtue or tokens generator for 4 turns only lands yee ... g2 i mulled to 5 'cause i didn t find any lands ... ;turn 4 i 2-0 burn preaty easy tnx sorin , turn 5 i died 0-2 burn , it was all my fault i was 13 life he had 1 card in hand , i decided to run with shambling vent instead waiting , i had Zealous persecution in my hand and 2 more lands ... g2 i missed some plays i were too tired ;turn 6 i fought another affo and i ended 2-0 , the best part was when he learned about my sundering growth ,he doesn't even knew her existence lol.
sooo last 2 word about this event, if i was a better player probably i could get in top 8 ,on room (i don t know if you english speaker use this slang lol -in sala *ita ) were uwr shaeli,affo burn , eldra tron , shadow in all their forms and uwx controls , so our only bad mu was eldra tron ;i also found the we dont have a real good tokens generaton on turn 2 , i tried both raise the allarm and bitterblossom but only spectral and lingering made my victories , collective brutality was an all star so so good ,basically is our liliana to discard bad things and do something cool so here my list .
as Always tnx reading and pardon my bad english XP.
Hi fellow tokens players, in 1 month i v several pptqs to partecipate , and i'd like to win at least one time and qualify to regional so i'm working hard on the list ,what do you think about ? do you have some suggest ?
Hi , i m playing a very similar list , i d like to sugest u about play AURIOK CHAMPION ,instead kor firewalker in sideboard , and - 1 fatal push + 1 timely reiforcement, in side - 1 timely + combo hate like runed halo nevermore or lost legacy ...
I'll try to explain , auriok can also chumblock Death shadow , and in general is more versatile , if you expect a lot of burns why not play 1 timely maindeck is just too great even you play against midrange or zoo decks , so you can play other cards in sideboard to fight our worst mu.
Actually im playing also a little green splash only 1 gw shockland for 2 Gavony township and usually is a preatty solid choise ,because we can pump our tokens with all the floating .
I hope you can understand my bad english, and can found some usefull ideas from this post ,good luck for the event !
hii'm really happy that you noticed my post , yes i'm thinking that collected is an all star ,in fact since i v put 2 copiens in the deck i really stabilized some mu like zoo, infect, scape, ad nauseam, burn ..., lost legacy is a really really good card , basically he shot down every combo deck in a relative good time ,usually 1 turn before their combo , he is also good in mirror and it is a jolly against some control ,
i don ' t play ghost quarter cause it is good against infect and affinity ,we have already a good mu ,against tron we cannot have a chance in a million of lifes
Bant eldrazi is more easy than a lot of people think , but you need to play smart , the best hand we can got are made by 1 seize 1 timely 1 zealous 1 virtue 3 lands , we have to seize their thoug-knot-seer ,and trade their creature quite easy whit timely and spectral , sorin will keep us safe , the only creature that can give us some hard times is eldrazy dislacer we have to path to exile him or kill him ,burn the card infront of the other player hihi... zealous persecution is like an assimetrical istant wrath of god so i don't feel the necessity to play in sideboard more than 1 wrath n 1 explosive , runed halo is a good tool ,'cause we can stabilize a bord with 2 reality smasher or prevent their disruption with seer ,
burn is definately a good mu basically we have 11 ways to gain life in main deck , we have just to survive 'till turn 4 , collectetive brutality is too good , sorin is a win condition even gain 2 lofe is strong , also my mana base is totally safe , the fast lands give to the deck a lot of consistent mana base ,in sideboard runed halo is good because i call eidolon and usually i ll watch the oppo suicide himself
i structured the deck to be a jund-like midrange ,i think i make it quite good ,and also i think it is more powerfull than jund but is harder to master cause we dont play strong cards but strong strategies ,the sideboard is projected to have stron 1 card win against the difficult mu like all combos and gave strategies or also to stabilize our advantage affo jund aggro decks and controll , soo ... in the end my deck pretend to face every deck , we have a 50/55 with every deck and a 75 against affo infect kiln field , our main problem is tron 10 chance , and lanter 45 chance(we win if he don't see bridge) others are quite good or playable ,
I hope you could read my reply , sorry for my bad bad english i still think in my own language so is difficult to exprime damn neo-latin languages XDXD ,if you like add me on facebook so we can excange opinions . bye bye
