Oh no. Reclamation lends itself to more of a combo deck; not a control, like us. You'd want to dump a bunch of lands in the yard and then Splendid them back with some number of Valakuts. IE: Good in modern.Quote:

Predictable miracles is a nightmare. You can handle both ponder and legendary miracles but the new one with 4 predict + 2 entreat is a very bad mu.Quote:

Very good advice indeed. I feel like GQ being a valuable card which can give you a lot of information against Miracles (does my opponent wants to keep his/ her top card), or most U-based decks in general.Quote:

He was playing a tropical too. Curious to see his MD.Quote:

Mostly play that match like it were a mirror and you should be a small favourite. If you splash blue for EE, so much the better. EE is also great against Entreat (and Miracles in general).Quote:

Burn is a pretty reasonable MU IMO, don't play more than 3-4 lands unless you have to and just play towards making a quick 20/20.
Decks without wastelands like ur or burn are not very hard to beat, the best you can do is hide yourself behind a endless chasm shield and kill them with p.fire [emoji6]
Does anybody know more about the list David Long played yesterday? He finished just outside top 32 so scg didnt post his decklist. I saw fragments, and saw a trop and Ee I think.
All I could make out of it was just one GQ, three EE and one Trop main.
Just message him and ask.
Is he on here and if so, what's his tag?Quote:

Basically an improved Roar of the Wurm that is uncounterable from the graveyard. Gets over TNN and eats up Gurmag and Reality Smasher.
Also, hype for Desert subtype:
Would love some interesting lands to add to our deck but I won't be getting my hopes up too much though since apparently Desert itself was deemed too powerful to bring back.Quote:
Desert also has the distinction of being one of the first lands to have a nonbasic land subtype on it. While we couldn't bring back Desert, the card, we definitely could bring back Desert, the subtype. The theme shows up lightly in Amonkhet, but will evolve quite a bit with Hour of Devastation. Source
Best we can hope for is some new lands with the Desert subtype which aren't broken as fuck (lol) and some cards that care about the Deserts. Kind of like how SOM made Cloudpost a better card by printing another Locus. Desert is Modern legal too.Quote:
