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...

Interesting. The General could become a thing to build around in future. I think you need more multicoloured spells and maybe some way to tutor a...

That knowledge is only possessed by the learned.

Someone post Oghma.

There's probably some mana dork deck that you can go somewhat Infinite with, casting huge spells and untapping/beefing up your guys. I don't know if...

Probably a good thing this isn't a human but seems pretty stronk regardless. Most likely not good but seems intriguing.

Format update: May 1, 2022 (Okay, it's May 21 --- bad BirdsOfParadise) Automatic point adjustments: Ancestral Recall now costs 3 pt (UP from 2...

Sweet decks, alphastryk! If anyone's looking at this thread, I'd better update it :-D *** MAY 2022 RANDOM STANDARD @ THE SOURCE *** (*)...

For the turn 1 Court of Grace vs. turn 1 Garruk Relentless disagreement, I still don't see a way for me to win when I'm on the draw. For me to kill...

Disagreement. I think Rooster is right. Going first is a huge advantage to both players, but Rooster can still stabilize after Goblin's big start....

I'm gearing up to take this out soon. I'm planning on throwing some Gideons (of the Trials and Blackblade)in the mix. Not sure if I'll play it this...

An alternative package I have thought of is a self-mill/zombies engine. Warlock Class The Modern Age Tymaret Calls the Dead Master of Death...

VraskaSmashmaster Results for Round "Still turn 1" 1. Asthereal (TO): Golgari Rot Farm, Treetop Village, Assassin's Trophy, Mental Misstep...

What about Lithoform Blight? That's a black cantrip. Does "loses all abilities and types" happen at a lower layer than "becomes Island", so that...

Agreed with FTW's line. 3-3

Yes indeed, it should be 3-3, and mana vault will not get the axe.

I think omen is necessary to support fow without running too many 3 drops. Having a 2 drop that is relevant when removal is not is also good for the...

Your logic makes sense to me, and would result in Mana Vault not yet seeing a ban - that's a big difference.

Once you're in WBu, is Omen of the Sea (splash color) better than Hidden Stockpile (card selection + bodies in WB), Enlightened Tutor (card selection...

Ok here is a draft for a WBu build cutting ponder for dragon and cling. Not quite as good cards but they play better into the Serra’s sanctum theme....

dte and maxx! agree, but I think they're both wrong. See my other comment above. OTP maxx! can trade off everything to destroy Karn, leaving 2/2 vs...

Right. I need to start reading cards again. Good point. MIssed the floating black idea. That should be WD for you.

That was how I arrived at the WBu version above. White and black are both core to the deck. Blue is only needed for the 3 cmc engines. So blue...

I had this many lists that I was looking at, the only overlap with the banlist is that Lush Growth/Mental Misstep slot. I guess I don't need to brew...

What if maxx! just tries to kill Karn quickly instead of protecting Garruk? Maxx! vs dte OTP T1 Garruk -> 2/2 Wolf (Garruk 3 counters) T1 Karn...

Assuming the only decks that can out-pace our removal engines are token based, detention sphere should be good enough as board wipes. It is somewhat...

Me. silkster: Hickory Woodlot, Island, Rhonas's Last Stand, Stubborn Denial 1. Asthereal (TO): Golgari Rot Farm, Treetop Village, Assassin's...

iirc cards like Stage and Vesuva are "hard" copies, while Spreading Seas would turn Field into a "soft" copy. So if you have a Stage target a "hard"...
