MTG Salvation

Looks cool. I always love me some tribal decks.

Personally I would be tempted to run 4 Faceless Haven while cutting the 4 Passages and converting the basics to Snow basics. Reason being if you can use BoED ability on either your Mutavaults or Havens (and dodging instant speed removal) you have a land card with the "can't lose opp. can't win" ability that they will need to take out with land destruction. Not a lot of LD being played at the moment.

I searched for an indestructible or hexproof angel you could enchant, there is only one and it is 7cmc unfortunately.

I suppose my last concern would be if you ran into a deck stonewalling you and you deck yourself out. Maybe a card or 2 in the SB that deals with shuffling the GY back into the library???

Whatever the case, it looks fun and let us know what you do.

one mitting rubber is the wait

I don't have a Navajo code-talker available. Could you translate?

Thought I would toss up a decklist or two for anyone interested.

GOBLIN AGGRO



I'm sure it could be tweaked or tailored to fit your style.

MONO BLACK CONTROL



Again adjust to your liking.

For the second time in less than a week: card bannings do not belong in the Rumors section.

Agreed once again. It will take someone with a lot more pull around here than me to convince an admin or mod to do so. Could even get the site more traffic if there was a dedicated NEWS section. This thread would be right at the top and first time visitors would not need to be confused about the "Rumor" section heading.

It even seems like a lot of the Trading Card Game / Collectible Card Game product manufacturers like Ultra Pro, Dragon Shield, Ultimate Guard, etc. aren't producing and distributing as much product due to the pandemic still.

Quite true. Trying to find Deck Boxes and sleeves at any of my local Big Box stores and/or LGS is becoming increasingly difficult. You can tell these items production has been cut during the last year and a half. Just like there is a shortage of new cars to purchase and also adult bicycles. There are definite shortages of certain items in my area (and countrywide).

Why the hell is this in the Rumor section?

Because for some unknown reason this site doesn't have a NEWS section. And the Rumor Mill has become the defacto NEWS section. It would probably take an admin or mod about 5 seconds to create one. My guess is they don't want the job of moving news threads to a rumor thread and vice versa. I'd give them a PM. But I've veered off topic. Back to this Hullbreacher "rumor".

Visited a couple of LGS while our family was on vacation recently in the town around our rental. One had a huge assortment (tens to hundreds of thousands) of singles from commons up to rare/mythics. Got to riffle through thousands of C/UC sorted by color searching for certain cards. The other had singles in a case and a smaller assortment but even this is in a small city area of around 30K people. Nobody wearing masks in either which was nice. Also visited a larger LGS in a local metro area over the weekend with my son. Again a huge assortment (tens to hundreds of thousands)of singles of all rarities (good prices on the C and UC at 10 cents each as well).

The singles market isn't dead. It may be contracting but players like myself will always want paper cards.

Kind of cool in Assault Formation decks. "My lowly 1/1 is now a 5/5 spider!"

Funny you should mention it but I was thinking that it could slot into a couple of those decks I run in Pioneer. I actually wish the 3rd mode would be a 1/7 Treefolk with Vigilance instead of a 3/3 Elephant. But the card is useful as is.

whoa it’s pretty much one mana more thoughtseize

hilarious part
https://scryfall.com/search?as=grid&order=name&q=type:trap

Every single trap type card is an instant

Now if they could just ban Thoughtseize in Pioneer and I would fully endorse this replacement.

Goes direct into infect. Hexproof or +2/+2/trample sells it.

It does in Modern I'm sure as you say. Not sure of in Pioneer though. Maybe in a Fynn, the Fangbearer deck.

hoping Lurrus does not get banned.. thinking of getting a copy soon.

Personally I hope it gets the banhammer. I don't see it happening any time soon though.

I like this card. I think it would have been okay at common. Would love to use it in Pioneer but not sure where.

I am assuming your opponent had Revenge of Ravens out. When you announced your attack with those 4 creatures, the triggers would have went on the stack and with nothing else happening you would have lost during your Declare Attackers stage/step. You at 0 life, your opponent at 19 life. You wouldn't have even entered declare blockers step and most certainly had not gone to the assign damage step. It's okay, let your friend know you weren't aware of the ruling and give them the victory for that game.

I was okay with it back in '83 as a teen even though it was even a bit too hacky for my tastes. Going to pass this go around. I'm sure it will hit the nostalgia button for some, and that is fine.

I am no rules expert but when your opponent declares which creatures are attacking and taps them (unless they have vigilance but even so they are attacking so will trigger RoR) the trigger for each goes on the stack. So no it doesn't wait for combat to end, the damage from the card will occur before creatures assign their combat damage. In your example if your opponent is at 4 life, announces an attack with 4 total 4/4 creatures presenting lethal to your 15 life, the 4 damage on the stack will kill off your opponent before combat damage is assigned. You win.
