there's too many options for there to ever be anything close to a "standard" list. Agreed, that's what makes this deck a blast, it's not solved. Did you ever get your Borne Upon a Wind line going? I actually think it could be an interesting add on its own, card is kind of cracked in the r...

Yeah champion of the perished had to go for putrid imp, maybe I get rid of putrid ghast or whatever is name since I dont run Liliana. Bolas will have to go for CI I think, though I still think Varina is a good way to clear the top. Maybe I will add it again, playing next week again and giving the d...

Yeah I would think that Citadel is a good cut if you're looking to make more cuts. We don't really have a good way to clear the top to keep rolling with it ( Necropotence would help but it's a nonbo with most of what we're doing), we don't have a good way to avoid hardcasting it, and honestly we sor...

Can I cut Archive for Reconnaissance? Yeah the lifegain and draw seems nice, but 5 mana is a lot to ask since I'm not running much ramp outside of Sol Ring/Nykthos/agadeem. Terferi Insight and Kindred Discovery both appear as better options I am already running. On top of Skullclamp and all the dra...

Yeah I'm, personally not interested in the surveil lands here. Surveil IS good, but not at that cost. Late game I don't care about the surveil, as I can loot just fine, and early game an untapped land is far, far preferable to me than a single surveil trigger. I'm just not interested at all. I think...

But it's important to remember Varina's trigger never gives you more than it takes Minor quibble but for me anyway I am usually pretty close to parity with any Varina trigger; some cards are significantly better in the bin, and some cards are fine in the bin. I've won games blasting for 10 with Var...

Generally I will attack with everything if the situation allows. The exclusions to that are when combat math isn't favourable and I risk stalling with an empty board, or I'm looting for bigger than my hand size. Sometimes that's totally fine, you wanna wheel your hand and start again, sure. But it's...

I see thanks. Mike does help though I assume. I thought more along the line of a combo with plague belcher. I think I will give the New geralt a try as well instead of a lord. Almost like a diregraf colossus and cathars crusade on the same card. Basically the gameplan is casting cheap zombies, get ...

Yeah, I think it would take a bit of a push to play the Trap here. Or like, a pretty specific meta. Personally, I think if you're after a very definitive counterspell that answers most things, you're probably best with something like Flusterstorm or Summary Dismissal . The latter is expensive to cas...

Based on only my surface level understanding of Borderlands isn't this whole set just that? Basically, yes. The only thing that's missing is the sirens. Malcolm, the Eyes :rofl: Ha, touche! But yeah, no, the story is basically borderlands but without the dick jokes, psycho hillbillies and gore. Got...

@toctheyounger Yeah, there are a lot of filmmaking elements that (to my uncultured eye) seemed to be very well done, but without a connection to the story or the characters, meh. As far as the plot, I really don't find myself engaged by movies that don't have a core conflict. Sure, you want her to ...

New Geralf is a combo enabler with plenty of aggro upside at 3cmc. It has value without the presence of a combo. If necroduality were 3cmc would you consider it? That's kind of how I see this new tool. Its def not a zombie though. Doesnt trigger Varina. Awkward, but powerul card. I might try it out...

I actually think it could get pretty gross. I don't like that it's not on tribe, but it's gonna make our guys enormous, and it's pretty easy to use it to vomit out an army with. Will it make it to the list? I don't know. Does it combo? Not outside of some convoluted altar of dementia reanimation lo...

I think I might have inadvertently discovered our next "film buffs vs philistines" argument: anyone else seen "Poor Things"? I wouldn't say I HATED it - it was better than "The Lobster", though that bar is so low it's in hell - but I didn't enjoy it and I definitely wo...

Get your tinfoil hats! Oh I'm pretty sure I know. Of course unless John Carpenter actually states it outright with evidence we will never know for sure, but I'm pretty happy with where I landed. Amazing film regardless. Oh, I was talking about my silly conspiracy that WOTC underpowers sets they kno...

Final Showdown is beautiful. Not sure every mode is helpful every time, but an instant speed wipe is never to sniff at.

Rakdos, the Muscle is GROSS. Tymna the Weaver / Dargo, the Shipwrecker has a new win con, card is gonna go off in at least a couple great ways.

Generally, I agree with pokken here. There's very few mana positive rocks we want to hit, to the point where even Sol Ring is less helpful to us. I think if you're wanting the best rocks you can include, you want Chrome Mox , Mox Diamond , maybe Lotus Petal and that's honestly about it. We don't nee...

Yeah, nothing from Fallout really hit me right. There was one zombie that we could loop for rad counters, I forget the name, but honestly it's no different to our aristocrat loops, just with extra steps and extra time. As far as Shipwreck Marsh goes, it's not a card I'd really search out. I'd be jus...

Yeah, that's fair. It's only ever going to give you value from play. I think it's easy enough to include and just not play when it's not advantageous, that's where I'm landing at least. I'm not too worried about it's place in the curve, I've gone as low as I can reasonably justify currently. I do ha...

They're definitely not going to be a land you want to see in your starting hand I think this is incorrect. They're great as a virtual 1-drop in almost every opening hand sequence. Some of our decks are thinking about playing Diregraf Ghoul for another 1 drop, playing one surveil land splits the dif...

I think they're ok. Surveil is clearly great for us, but entering tapped isn't. They're definitely not going to be a land you want to see in your starting hand, which makes them a value play for Coffers or Field, and a Land Tax drop. I don't know if that's worth it personally. I certainly wouldn't r...
