Small tournament last night, 12 players....poor results only 2-2
Match 1 against 8 Rack
Games 1 and 2 I mulliged to 5....so, nothing to say, easy 2-0 to him
Match 2 against Eldrazi Tron
Very easily game, the guy was new to the format, and a couple lords and a spreading seas did well game 1 and 2
Match 3 Against Abzan
Game 1 terrible, I took to long to find the second island, and a few IoK later I lost
Game 2 very grind game, with a bord full of creatures both sides. Spreading Seas closed the game
Game 3 He drew that ******* -1/-1 to mine and +1/+1 to their...*****
Match 4 against UR Control
2-0 very easy, Im learning how to play against controls...only 1-2 creatures at time
Notes: Phantasmal Image was very good, Vialing it was always very good, and any removal would kill my fishs anyway.
Im anxious to play with Kopala, if he was there last night, a few things could be diferent
Hand disruption is very strong against us =(
Wondering if I should cut Smugglers Copter from my list. Its so good to me everytime, but lots of sucesful lists arent using them
A lot of successful lists DO run them. I had them printed on my decklist but swapped them out for Dismembers at the last minute because there was a bunch of Company decks and Kiki-Chord decks in the room.
Question: When Ixalan comes out, are you guys going to try any copy of Kopala in main deck ?
i am going to be trying Kopala for sure. I have a feeling she is going to make Phantasmal Image playable again. Image is such a nonbo with Kira but synergizes great with our new Legend.
Agree, but a list with Phimage and Kopala cant handle Copters...I`ll miss them
Watertraper Weaver is amazing, but come on CMC3 =( Im really sad about this set...im pretty sure nothing relevant will come in the next one too, and we will have to wait anoter 10 years for a folk set
Hi, I would wait for the duel deck if I were you. It should be out in November I think. If you are not in a hurry, you will find a lot of cards there. They should have it in your store.
Not really in a hurry, but I would like to start playing at least FNMs with a decent deck as soon as I can, for the experience. Going to look forward for that duel deck.
I strongly recommend do not play FNM WITHOUT the core deck completed. It will ruin your experience and you will lose the faith on the deck
Hello everyone, starting my first ever competitive deck and I need some (a lot) of help. Decided to go merfolk since I don't have a lot of money to spend on mtg, so I thought a good deck that wouldn't be so expensive on an eternal format would be a good choice.
That said I live in a kinda isolated city in Brazil, and there's only one cardstore here so I get a very limited stock of cards to go to.
As you can see from the list there are some stuff I would have bought a playset but my store doesn't have it.
As for Aether Vial, Mutavault and cavern of souls the store has none of them and they're out of reach finacially for now (i have about 300 bucks in brazillian money to spend on mtg every month and a Vial copy costs about 250 bucks, if I can find it, Cavern is around 200) for nexy month I'm trying to get 2x cursecatcher and 4x mutavault the 6 cards will cost me about 275. And the next one hunt for 4x Master of Waves and 4x Master of the Pearl trident
This friday I'm thinking of going to the store with this and start playing to get the hang of it:
Maybe go 18 Islands and get amother +1 negate and +1 unsummon? I think that untill I can get those vials, MoW and the other lord I should focus on control. Or maybe I should look for budget cards?
I`m going to use my first language to help him a lil bit, sorry guys

Cara sua lista esta péssima, voce vai fazer 0-4 easy desse jeito. Se que seu orçamento está apertado e voce ta usando o que tem, mas tem diversas falhas nessa listagem sua.
Primeiro, sua contagem de criaturas muito muito baixa. As listas tradicionais de merfolk usam de 27 a 30 criaturas, eu contei 18 no seu.
Muitas mágicas de não criaturas: 4x Mana leak, Essence Scatter, Turn, Negate etc etc....é Merfolk control ?? Foge completamente da idéia do deck em ser agressivo, quando voce precisar dar um draw de bicho vai ficar comprando anula e não vai pressionar o adversário.
Me add no whats 16 98112-0424, eu tenho vários merfolks do deck "verdadeiro" pra passar. Ai te dou umas dicas por lá também.
Mas reafirmo: a lista está muito ruim. Poucos bichos e muitos anulas de main deck, não faz sentido entende. Não é assim que o merfolk ganha jogo.
