    Re: Masters 25

    Went to a draft on Saturday, was a great experience. Love the two-card synergy and wide open feel vs. the very curated, archetype-driven strategies we get in most sets. I played UW control and got a...

    Re: [RIX] Rivals of Ixalan

    This card is... interesting? No broken interactions come to mind, but it might be useful in High Tide, where you can replay Snapcaster/Candelabra, or bounce any hate permanent for one turn. Worse...

    - Playing vs. Elves, I have a Chalice for 1 on the board

    Honestly, Dragon Stompy was a rough matchup back in the day, and it looks to be even rougher now with MD Ensnaring Bridge and artifact removal. The best strategy is probably to hope for...

    Tombstalker seems good; double black might require some reworking of the mana base, though.



    A few reasons...

    - Aeon Bridge has been inactive...

    This is not a new deck (see: MossNought, Aeon Bridge) but I've haven't played in a while (a decade, give or take) and I'm interested in developing this deck for the new meta.

    Why do we need more maindeckable graveyard hate? It eliminates so many fringe cards and strategies from viability. If anything they should start banning overpowered hatebears so that "distributed win...

    When Tarmogoyf was released, every other deck splashed green just so it could have Goyf beatdown as a backup strategy. I was surprised to see how much the power level of creatures has risen since...

    Out of curiosity (since I still have a lot of studying to do), which aggro decks are you referring to? Elves or others as well?

    Your last point is the reason I am considering Lim-Dul's vault. It's...

    I actually agree with you that it is more of an anti-fizzle card than an enabler. I have been thinking of it as potential MD Meditate 4-5, though it becomes significantly better following another...

    On the one hand card disadvantage, on the other it practically guarantees that you are able to go off the turn after you play it.

    Re: [Deck] Solidarity

    Has anyone tested this? Running 1-2 of these and dropping an Island could work. You can landcycle it early on and have it as an additional target for Snapcaster. It probably averages 3 or 4 cards...
