Well there goes all my good willing to buy wotc products. Just have to keep playing kitchentable with my old cards and friends like the past 2 years . Tried to play standard this year but the quality of the meta wasnt that good for me.
I think the Vehicle Surge might actually be the most competitive. It has the full four Hearts and Scroungers and looks like an excellent value. In addition, I think an aggro deck will suffer least from not being a full powered list. Over more turns, a less well tuned midrange or control deck seems like it would be more likely to be exposed.
Counter Surge is a nerfed version of my favorite deck and also a fine value, but it hasn't been putting up great results lately. In addition, the single Walking Ballista seems like a power down. With Cartouche of Ambition in the sideboard, I don't see how they put Dreamstealer in place of Bristling Hydra. The Verdurous Gearhulks and Glint-Sleeve Siphoners are for real.
Hi, since the announcement of the release of the new challenge decks i though i could get back to FNMs after my 3 years break. I was thinking about buying the monored one since looked the most competitive and had a pw that could be useful for later use on commander games, but they are already sold out on all my LGS pre-orders or are 50$ xD.
So am looking into the other three, i really like the vehicles and the counter surge, are they any good compared to the monored? or any of them can hold their ground against the current meta with some upgrades? Leaving card values and rotations aside wich one should i buy? Thanks for your help
This could make more sense if they bring back mana burn, otherwise i dont see any use of this in T2, anyway ill always be happy to open this 30$ overpriced standard card the first 2 weeks
Oh yeah... Magic, the game where we can call players who spend thousands of dollars building fine-tuned decks for competitive formats "casual" players, because their decks have a Commander.
I mean "casual" in the basic English sense of the word, not the Magic jargon sense of the word.
yeah, "casuals" shouldnt be allowed even to touch any card that is tournament staple, they dont deserve to play them. Totally agree with you
So vehicles it is then, thanks !
