About companions(in Pioneer and Modern), what non-Lurrus, non-Yorion companions are affecting Pioneer in a way you didn't want to?
About this I think I don't like Gyruda. It's reaally hard to interact with it if it's not a counterspells, Rest feels fine.

Re: [Official] State of Modern Thread (B&R 03/09/2020)

Do you think Lukka and Winota are that good in Pioneer? I think people might try them, but they are not that powerful. Or at least, I hope so. Yeah, Pioneer lacks good answers for theese kind of strategies so they can do their stuff pretty safely. Maybe it's a tempororal metashift but Lukka at leas...

Re: [Official] State of Modern Thread (B&R 03/09/2020)

About Pioneer, I think that it's already a very good format, but I recognize there is a problem with yorion + lurrus. They will be banned, I am sure. The format looks skill intensive for sure, now. But not diverse at all. With rise of Lukka and Winota it's less about skill sadly. For me, they and c...

Re: [Official] State of Pioneer Thread (B&R 12/16/2019)

About Lotus Breach - what is its' natural predator? I wonder how to beat this deck while I'm playing Wu Yorion devotion. Why I'm asking - I sided 14 sb cards to fight this deck and still loose. :( The possibility of going off on turn 3 is also very annoying - sometimes can't cast more\better treats ...

Re: [Official] State of Modern Thread (B&R 03/09/2020)

ktkenshinx Was thinking about what you posted. I think I have analogue with Lurrus - it's like the diversirty inside of Eldrazi archetype during Eldrazi winter with few decks that were able to beat them. About prison decks: Sun and Moon (Boros Prison), Martyr Proc, Wx Enduring Ideal, Skred Red and ...

Re: [Official] State of Modern Thread (B&R 03/09/2020)

I understand and share all the feeling about white color in magic and modern specifically. Will add my coin about companions: 1) I don't think it's true that metagame is diverse. Yes, it can be diverse inside of few archetypes but it lacks real control decks. No old Ux control decks with noncreature...

Re: [Official] State of Modern Thread (B&R 01/13/2020)

Why do you think people will wait another year for a minor changes? Modern was bad for several years (but sometimes acceptable) and you think there will be another year for Wizards to understand simple things? Why should player wait to format become healthy? There're a lot of other games more balanc...

Say what you want, but these changes will have impact. Will it be the desired or will it be enough? We have to see, and you can argue about it, but you can't argue that they will have no impact. I didn't say that it will have no impact. I said that it will be meanenless and overall it won't be chan...

Re: [Official] State of Modern Thread (B&R 12/16/2019)

Theese bans are almost as "No changes". Wizards didn't change anything in general, keeping Urza, Big mana and other combo decks playing around in tier1-2. Looks like no way I will ever return to this format.
RIP Modern. Hello Pioneer.

Re: [Official] State of Modern Thread (B&R 12/16/2019)

Veil of Summer - this card will be needed to keep in check blue strategies to be dominant with Tron decks. One of the biggest mistakes of 2019, and thats saying something. Veil dies tomorrow. Yeah, probably, but it's not that strong when treats are not that great. That's why I think planeswalkers a...

Re: [Official] State of Modern Thread (B&R 12/16/2019)

I think the best way to revive Modern will be a way to ban powerkreeps so R'n'D will have better design space to print interesting cards. Urza, High Lord Artificer - you already see what this man does and there's no way to stop him or hate. Oko, Thief of Crowns; Wrenn & 6; Teferi, Time reveler; ...

Re: [Official] State of Modern Thread (B&R 12/16/2019)

I think Modern needs new ban philosophy and rebalance period like in Pioneer. It will be very helpfull for Modern and can return some players back after this if bans are correct enough to keep balance in format.

On a minor thing again. For those who already have them. Are the eldraine lands performing well for you?
Mystic Sanctuary feels like the most powerfull one, other are pretty mediocore. 2nd in usability I can call Castle Ardenvale with SFM pack.

What's everyone's predictions for future bannings in the shltshow that is Modren? Mine: Within six months, Opal and Urza banned. Within a year, Ancient Stirrings and/or Once Upon a Time banned. Modern is actually great right now, a ton of diversity, and I feel like we are looking for scapegoats to ...

Wraithpk also not advocate for any ban right now. Let's just see what happen in the next few months. Will Urza spend the holiday season in modern, or will he be banned before Christmas. Nobody knows. I'm tired of waiting each time to let everyone see that deck or card is busted. And there will be n...

Thank you for your answers about Mox Opal, guys. As I can see now Urza decks are a problem and I can see 2 solutions: to kill Urza decks or to slow them down so much slower but powerfull artifact hate can match up in speed. In first occasion we can loose artifact archetype att all. Thanks to extrem...

Hello guys. What do you think about new variations of artifact combo decks with Emry? Especially build with Jeskai Ascendancy. It feels like banned KCI - not that easy to hate even with Stony Silence (resilient to hate), deck can go off on turn 2 and has good midrange plan thanks to Sai and Urza. Is...
