[Mixed replies to both FTW and reeplcheep, sry if it's a bit confusing]:
If you just want to make a "when my deck is at its operational ceiling how do I draw the most cards" then Enchantress might...
I was being a little bit facetious but yea I think the bar for playing a 4 mana card in a control deck is pretty high especially when it's just a value piece, then you have to ask is it better than...
List I tried recently for modern "monoW control" was
19 Snow Plains
1 Boseiju Shelters All
1 Hall of Heliods Generosity
1 Mistveil Plains
1 Nykthos
4 Potion of Healing
4 Wall of Omens
Yeah I think Hopeless Nightmare is a really huge card for this archetype as well. Is your decklist missing cards? I counted only 71 maindeck and you don't actually include Hopeless Nightmare or very...
Don't want to be the guy who posts every random green rare creature but:
I don't exactly know that it's better than other cards the deck could play but it seems very interesting mainly due to...
With all the noise about initiative I think one of the black ones has flown under the radar a bit

Jesus lol I thought my posts were cringe
Top 4 challenge this weekend: https://twitter.com/moro66g/status/1533126697721073665
2 Boseiju
1 Karakas
4 Vista
1 Savannah
2 Sanctum
5 Snow Forest
1 Snow Plains
4 Heath
I don't even disagree with the direction of building that list from a competitive standpoint (except maybe the Burning Wish part) I just think it's funny that optimizing "land tax deck" meant...
I thought about this but I think the deck it goes in is something WGx
Even if you decide that replenish is bad/wrong (reasonable), playing Serras Sanc in deck without Growth/Sprawl seems iffy to me...
5 Snow Covered Island
2 Snow Covered Plains
1 Snow Covered Mountain
4 Flooded Strand
4 Prismatic Vista
2 Scalding Tarn
1 Volcanic Island
1 Tundra
4 Brainstorm
This hard/soft distinction has no real basis in the rules at all. How this works is because copy effects apply in layer 1 before any other modifications, so the only attributes that get copied are...
Played in a big-ish local event
4 Flooded Strand
4 Prismatic Vista
2 Scalding Tarn
5 Island
2 Plains
1 Mountain
1 Tundra
1 Volcanic Island
Yeah but my list doesn't, and that's the context I'm talking about. Sorry if that wasn't obvious
I find that a little bit hard to believe as the deck looks very anemic without...
This is kind of true but all of the token makers have this problem. Like if you aren't going off with estrids then 1 Omen of the Sun or 1 History of Benalia is also relatively non-threatening by...
Yeah im definitely leaning toward one of the token maker enchantments for that slot but just wanted to brainstorm ideas as wide as possible
Played this at FNM
2-1 vs GB Smog Nicfit
2-0 vs Grixis Hullbreacher
0-2 vs BUG Zenith
4 Flooded Strand
4 Prismatic Vista
2 Scalding Tarn
5 Island
2 Plains
This list from Michael Mapson won both legacy 5k events at the recent SCGCON Pittsburgh (he won the first one himself then lent his entire 75 to the winner of the 2nd one)
Creatures (12)
4 Elvish...
Yeah I think solitude is a fine idea.
I think both of you make pretty relevant/correct points about both of the 4 mana walkers (Nahiri / Emperor) being kind of weak cards. I can see Nahiri minus...
This kind of summarizes the reasons why black doesn't impress me as a secondary colour either. Your argument is that you get
1) Reliably casting cling early
2) Drown
3) Tarpit
None of those...
The issue is not that the opponent goes turn 1 reveal Yorion plains Mom, or turn 1 Emry or whatever, then I play standstill and my opponent plays Saga and I'm like "oh no how could I have seen that...
Opponent just playing a Saga under your standstill is always going to be a problem, I don't understand the hyperfixation on them tutoring needle with it
This is a reasonable answer to the...
In the situation where you have no standstill in play and they get needle off saga you can just Prismatic Ending the Needle or bounce it with Teferi. The problem is that it doesn't matter what kind...
TS is not a great card right now and Shadow isn't a big get if you're losing Murktide (both cards fill a similar role), so once you commit to playing the same package of 8 one-drops you're basically...
