well, the lasts Iwon were bogles, 2 Agro with green and white and tokens with chord of calling.
I am fairly happy with the list and wellassuming this is modern and that you cannot be prepared vs all, Im happy to loose uniqely vs burn (apart of merfolks...)
I tryed to modify he list to go better vs burn... but all cards in the 75seem perfect...
I thought in:
- replacing the snap for 3rd chalice
- adding more EE instead of dismember
but there is a fact and is that if I take out some im also getting worse in other match ups...
anyopinion?
EDIT: @Unnombrepls EE is in deed a card which is great vs a lot of decks... and also vs merfolks... just add moreUB lands, Thomas pendergrast used to play 4 ratched - O.Stone is too slow in my opnion
Yesterday i played another game with Tron, it was a 4-0 and wanting to test some agreed mainly by ShookTropa, I really hate those TKS and gemstones...
I am not going to relate all the match ups but I was to note the following:
- the River of Tears really wanst tested as a card that provides 2 colors for for example EE or Dismember, BUT I didnt notice any issue in giving me the right mana, except in one scenario: I needed to play a land and my opponent fetched at End of my turn - i had squelch - but i really wanted to handle for ghost quarter
- EE are just wonderfull - it served me vs infect and of curse part they are fantastic vs vials, burn and even merfolk!
- again Chalice was key for winning infect
- Once i took out Solemn to test TKS and the Thomas Pendergrass approach (2 skite 2 chalice). I believe i wont take out them anymore. The issue is that both Solemn and talismans just helps us to ramp us and this is geat IF we do not reach the tron, thats why i incremented again up to 2 wurmcoil and 2 minslaver and also - long time ago i tested ulamog - i just dont want in deed too many high costs, the most i have is an 8 cost
- the 14 lands 2 talismans approach is finally the one i most like, for other games where i want to reduce the issue vs stony silence i am more confortable taing out 2 talismans tan 3 and leaving the deck with only 23 lands
- Again it was surprisngly good chalice vs infect.
- long time ao i also took out spellskite BUT never again, i've found so many scenarios where this card had sabe me my ass - the other day for example vs an E.Truth to my Chalice from ANT side
- I love also how Repeal behaves with Delver with the new rule... now I can bounce with a chalice on 1!
- I always will prefer Ghost quarter, it saved my ass from a Crumble to Dust and infect.
my match ups were:
Infect, a kind of Tempo UWR delver, a UWR with stony and Geist, a UWG with Voice and critters
i have now 2 questions:
- I took oboro instead of 1 River - do you think is correct?
- im thinking in adding a 3rd River, agree?
hell this is deck is the funniest deck to play (apart from my storm decks in legacy of course!), i loved when i saw my opponent crying when i killed him with skite ha ha ha
Hi, I'm new to this forum, i am an old legacy player that plays some modern.
first of all thanks to the creators of this deck which is the most I like.
I would like to contribute and ask if you have tested disrupting shoal in here, and what do yout htink about this. im looking for something to gain tempo, it sems that affinity and fast agro race us... It is also usefull vs other decks. In my testing what i found is that is a proactive answer and acts somehow like gemstones...
I've also tested i believe all kind of builds and likely I prefer no TFK builds with solemn.. One of the last tries was 4 gemstone 3 solemn...
I like also EE VS fast strategies .. Ill likely add 24th land instead of talisman and try 2UB Lands
the list was the same as:
