MTG Salvation

that's a nice comeback.

Anyway, will be updating the primer with charming prince and whatever other new useful cards we got from Eld. I'm just waiting for more testing results to show up.

thanks for the tips. The match up can be easy to hard depending on what threats my opponent get's out into the field. It becomes bad when he get's out a Stormbreath Dragon, because the dragon is immune to all our removal except for board wipe. And he can fetch the dragon with primal command.

Two islands? I'm intested in the reasoning behind that. If it's to play around blood moon, wouldn't prismatic vista be better?

it's a meta call. There's a RG ponza player over here. The second island is added so that I don't get cut from blue mana too quickly.

Latest playtest report:

me using U vs cousin using G

game 1: lost when I tried blocking an elvish archer with two coral merfolk, he giant growth the archers and I never recovered from the 2 for 1.
game 2: won when I counter all the big guys and an elf lord + ping the one toughness creatures with prodigal sorcerer
game 3: he is mana screwed and I win easily

me using U vs cousin using W

game 1: I take 10 or 12 damage from a single knight errant before a group of merfolk overwhelmed him
game 2: countered a crucial wrath of god for the win. Told me he was trying to bait out counters with other things, so he could resolve the wog. My very last counterspell in hand went to the wog, he would have won if he had one more spell to bait out a counter.

well, ok I won but blue used to lose all the time.. so I guess buying the two lord of atlantis is worth it. Still need to do a few more tests if the power level of blue is just right against the other colors.

Whoa, long time no post. We actually played out the decks again a few weeks ago.

the blue deck is fine now in the aggro route. It beat white and lost only one game to the green one.

even if not pumped by anything. Syr Faren will still give free +2/+2 bonus to someone when he attacks.. although he would die from a lot of things if we make him attack as a 2/2. Still excited to test out the card. I will be playing 2-of, as this guy is bad in multiples.

this confuses me. Why do they need to do this?

versatile green spell. Card draw or a mass pump.

instant speed makes it even better.

surprised this thing is actually 10 dollars for singles pre-order. I guess come untapped on turn 4 adds ten dollars to evolving wilds?

I guess they cannot make this 3 lands or less, because they still want Prismatic Vista to be as expensive as possible.

Anyway, a slightly better evolving wilds... might be usable in certain decks.

this guy can be really explosive in modern mono G stompy.

just slapping a rancor on Syr faren is free +4/+4 to someone else each turn. Assuming Syr Faren is not killed by removal or by blockers.

already put two of this guy on my scg cart. Needs to be tested.

westvale abbey does not produce white, and it takes too much mana to produce a token.

anyway, I'm not taking a plains out. My build has two island, so I would just take out an island to put a castle in.

Will just put the island back in if the castle does not work out well.

It feels like we can have the new Castle Ardenvale as a single in the deck. Helps to grind better in the mid-late game.

as expected, there's some support for adventure. And lucky clover looks like a fine support card.
