Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Sliver Queen
I'm often tempted to build a deck with her as the general but I already have 3 5c decks I love. Also, Slivers are super boring to pilot and I don't want to build her as just a combo piece. So I'm kinda left in this vague uninspired area. But she cool. >:( Who says you need 5c slivers? The Sliver Qu...

Re: Worst Mana Curve Ever
Little bit of a bumpy bump here. Just updated the list. Some notable cards. Mnemonic Deluge - Might be too strong/unfun. Hitting Rise of the Eldrazi isn't a fantastic play pattern for my opponents.

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Flatline
So it puts people in a position where taking any poison where taking any poison whatsoever could kill them in ways they can't realistically prevent, which means if they have a slower plan they're obliged to interact with this strategy on turn 2, or 1 on the draw. That's pretty obnoxious imo. 3drink...

Re: SCD: Humble Defector
"Optimal play pattern" is extremely subjective and meta dependent here. For example, I think this decks winrate goes up pretty dramatically if your opponents find Cabal Coffers + Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth so you can reverberate their X spells. I guess if you know their decks well enough th...

Re: Big Timmy Style: Xenagos, God of Elementary Mathematics
Rampaging Brontodon I think has a floor as 21/21 roughly, right? Since it'd double to 14 then swing and get +7 for 21? Assuming I cast it off lands. I think it's *good* but probably not quite there for what I'm looking for. Definitely worth having on the backburner though. Ah, you're right. I was t...

How the f uck has actually nobody here or in the "old" topic talked about Anzrag, the Quake-Mole ? It is basically the best creature ever printed for Xenagos. It is an basically a 4 Mana unblockable 16 damage. With Xenagos buff he is beafy enough to attack into someone who would be foolis...

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Fynn, the Fangbearer
I have no experience with this card. Isn't it fairly popular? Looks fair but annoying as random poison tends to be.

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Sauron, the Dark Lord
On a completely different axis. This guy is great in the 99 of my Changeling deck. His +1/+1 per spell can go on evasive Changelings like Changeling Outcast . Letting your tiny Changelings get swole while spreading around the counters so the counters aren't going to get blanked by a single removal s...

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Sen Triplets
I don't think Sen Triplets was ever particularly strong. It's just miserable to lose to after the game has boiled down to a 1v1. I imagine it'll get hated on for basically ever because of this. One upside of powercreep is that someday I may get to actually play this card without getting immediately ...

Re: 30+ Creature Type Changeling Tribal
There's a new "Outlaw" subtype like party. I assume one of them is going to be extremely pushed. Nothing offensive yet but Discreet Retreat seems like everything I want. Ramp, fixing, and card draw! All on a fairly safe enchantment. There's also a decent handful of non-Changelings this can...

Re: [Off-Topic] Community Chat Thread
I'm not surprised. It's got that Feather quality where it does something novel and zany, yet useful. It's a cool design alright. We had a fun little thought exercise with the guys recently and we ranked the various decks of the ten years (!) of the group into a tier list. Not all of them existed at...

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Wreck Hunter
Powerstones are a mechanic that never really took off - This is really the heart of it. I'm not sure what deck powerstones live in, if any of them. Lazav, the Multifarious absolutely loves powerstones. Stern Lesson is bonkers good in that deck. Ashnod, Flesh Mechanist also quite strong. As for Spea...

Re: Aether Rift [scd]
This card reads "At the beginning of your upkeep discard a card at random" and then a bunch more text that doesn't matter. If for some reason thats a card your deck wants than this is ok. The rest of the text is basically ignorable, it'll never put a relevant creature into play. Throwing 5...

Re: SCD: Humble Defector
1) You haven't played in my meta. Some of Jon's decks are objectively pretty strong. We've had games that he wins by turn 5. But when we play with Dayne (luckily a rarity), some of his decks couldn't fight their way out of a paper bag, and he's an even worse player than he is deckbuilder. It's real...

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Capricious Efreet
This card is so cool! But power creep be creeping. Although, it might have always been a bit slow now that I think about it.
