Went undefeated at FNM last week with this Jeskai tempo/control list. Its a bit different from traditional tempo lists but it works really well. Having access to FOR and Jace have helped me in many games. i was thinking of maybe finding room for a 2nd copy of electrolyze , but overall i'm very happy with how its performed so far.
This list has been working the best for me so far in my early testing. Mainboard spell pierce can help battle opposing Jace's and also create some nice early game tempo. I don't think we need to play as many cryptic's or sphinx rev anymore cause of the card advantage from Jace. I think we want to play alot of early game interaction then when we run out of steam, drop Jace and brainstorm or fate-seal the game away. He may not solve our problems with Big mana or Combo but it defiantly is worth playing as it becomes the ultimate finisher for most control decks. Anyway, here is the list!
Hey guys! I have been playing Jeskai Control for a while now and with the unban of JTMS, i came up with a new list. So far, so good in my local meta . Lemme know what you guys think. Im not sure if JTMS fits better in UW control or in UWR control but im leaning towards jeskai because our burn has ability to kill oposoing jaces. ALso , the deck is already doing well so i think this unban only make things better for control! That being said i dont know if the tempo lists are going to be as favored as the draw- go control lists going foward. Only time will tell.. Heres my list!
I have been playing Blue Moon (Madcap Version ) for some time now and am also very experienced in blue based control decks ( Jeskai, U/W , U/R ). I would love to write the primer for this deck. It is a great deck and deserves a fully updated primer. If needed i would be happy to start working on it. Let me know!
Hey guys , just wondering why everyone seems to be playing 3 or more copies of field of ruin? Although i think its good. why is it a better option then something like tectonic edge or more ghost quarters? i don't get it. thanks!
Uw control is a great deck but im really struggling against it with all the aggro and damn Storm running around these days! Not sure what to do, dropped from tier 1 to less then tier 3 in a week. and i dont really like jeskai control. What would u guys do? is the meta super hostile toward U/W control for you guys to?
Hey all, I have been playing it for almost 3 years now with great results but i have a few concerns. Not to sound negative but i have been watching U/W control drop in both popularity and in rankings/ placings in recent events. I still feel its an amazing deck and i do really enjoy it. but a lot of people and pros are in favor of Jeskai Tempo over U/W control at this time. It may be due to the Meta speeding up and also cause of Storm being a tough match up for U/W.. I'm on the fence about what to do. I don't want to change decks but if U/W control continues to drop it wont be long before jt falls out of top-tier :S.
There is nothing wrong with that as it is a great diverse deck and popularity isnt that important. . Maybe im overthinking. Gimme some Feedback !
Yo IslandsareBroken your totally not giving Rev the credit it deserves. It probably is one of the most important cards in the deck due to the fact you can cast it and draw cards then save it for a snapcaster flashback and draw even more. In a deck that constantly wants to have more cards than our opponent and relys on few win conditions., it seems very wrong to cut. I would NEVERR play a list that doesn't run a copy of it main board. Also, How is adding a 4th supreme verdict even an option? Your adding removal in the place of CA. . Rev is one of the "staples " of U/W control and Ive never seen a finish that did not use Sphinx Rev. Dont be N00b.. Anyway, Have a great day!
I have been playing the new Grixis Shadow deck and have had alot of success so far with it. I went 4- 0 at my LGS last friday ( Played against Jund DS, Merfolk, Affinity, and some Goblin homebrew lol. I think this deck has alot of potential and am excited to see how it evolves . In Ryan Overturf's stream, he said himself that he believes Grixis Shadow is better placed in the meta then traditional Grixis Delver atm. Either way, its alot of fun and i like it! Here is my list
