welcome back to the thread.

@everyone
sorry I've disappeared for awhile. My Windows 10 pc was a victim of srttrailerror.txt... cannot boot for days, and took awhile before I could restore things again. I'll catch up reading posts and updating the primer in the next few days.
I hope everyone is doing fine.

primer update:
** added mtggoldfish link of Emmenuel Noivo (Starstorm) to Top 8's section.
Table of Contents -> Top 8's
** on his decklist description, mentioned that Starstorm is the winner of Modern Madness 11.09.2021
Table of Contents -> Decklist
that's great news indeed! When you post the goldfish link, I will add it to the Top 8's section.
you're levelling up your piloting skills with this deck.

primer update:
fnm report by Starstorm added to Tournament Reports section.
we can also add your Professor variant to the sample deck lists if you want.. once it's fully tested.
hmm, so Professor of Symbology.. is actually good. This looks like the birth of a new variant of the deck. Would you like me to add Professor of Symbology to card choices section in the primer, or do you need to test it further?
that's a lot of grinding you did. nice work.
if you like, I can put your Ranger build as another sample deck list in the primer. You will be credited of course. So we would have another variant of Emeria there.

quite informative. Info appreciated.
if have time, and can mention how you side boarded. Those things you said could actually be added to the primer sideboard guide section. So we would have fresh data on how to fight Hammer Time, and Hell's kitchen decks.
Starstorm fnm report added to tournament reports.
nice to see your build doing well. That Hammer Time deck looks dangerous with instant speed, but you did manage to beat it.
how does the Hell's Kitchen deck work? Is their combo fast to happen, and how do we prevent it? Info would be appreciated, thanks.
it's weak for modern and other stronger formats, but I do remember it was a useful card during it's time at Standard. The land fetching ensured that there would a be a Baneslayer Angel on turn 5, assuming the player has the angel on hand. It also allowed faster build up of plains for Emeria, the Sky Ruin.
card advantage from 8 thoughtcast effects do add a lot of resilience to Affinity. And I used to be a legacy affinity player, the Etched Champion.. I bring three of them in against removal heavy decks, it's hard to get rid of if the opponent does not have board wipes or sac effect. If you expect to face a lot more affinity.. I suggest adding one Stony Silence to the sideboard. The stony would prevent the indestructible artifact lands from producing mana, and prevent cranial plating from being equipped, and make clue tokens unusable.. ---- however, It would cause batterskull and kaldra cannot be equipped to our other creatures.. but I still believe it would have a more negative affect on the affinity player, more than it has a negative effect on us.

fnm report by Gerant added to Tournament reports section.
Table of Contents → Tournament Reports.
nice card, an effective sideboard card against certain kinds of storm decks. Sold my two copies years ago, as I needed cash at that time.
on card choices. Heliod's Intervention does look good against Burn. Their new eidolon + vortex looks painfully hot...
Goodluck on your next tourney. Looking forward to see the results.
that's an interesting build. So it looks like, builds without sfm can still perform.

I hope you had a nice vacation. ^____^
well, and somehow I'm still alive. Not joking.. someone died from the delta variant only 20 or 30 meters from where I work. Soldiers sealed off that street, and took everyone who were in close contact with the deceased to a quarantine facility.
back to mtg... nice to see you finally got a match against the new Hardened Scales deck. Is it a tough match-up for us, or it's easy enough to beat?
