Re: [Official] State of Modern Thread (B&R 07/13/2020)
Ok he lost all credibility when he showed you play Urzas saga in classic style affinity. This Is probably the deck he is using for basis and I honestly want to know how many times the creator/player actually used saga without creating a speedbump to themselves. Yes the deck did go 5-0 in a modern le...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion
I love watching the comments on you tube about how modern horizons 2 prices tanked so damn fast and so damn far within the first week. But people forget that the hype train rules previews. I will say Im surprised on how much ragavan and a few other cards have gotten to, but those prices really are u...

Meh I don't do Coffee or Tea, but I don't knock on them either cause whatever wakes people up and gets them moving is good enough for me.

Re: [Off-Topic] Community Chat Thread
I've been drinking coffee made with an old fashioned percolator for basically since I married my wife and she got me hooked on it. So since 2005 or so. I'll drink a cold brew every now and then but I never go out of my way for anything but the percolated stuff. I more or less grew up drinking coffe...

Re: [Official] State of Modern Thread (B&R 07/13/2020)
Yeah gonna have to solidly agree with cfusionpm any time you say package that is not part of a already existing deck your really saying lets throw darts at the board and see if it sticks in the right way. I honestly see saga maybe being used in some amulet titan deck with undying or persist creature...

Re: [Official] State of Modern Thread (B&R 07/13/2020)
I don't think he meant cutting Darksteel Citadel or the other artifact lands, but probably Blinkmoth Nexus or some non-land card. I also wouldn't be surprised if the deck doesn't want a full playset, but one or two maindeck as a good back-up plan for closing out the game. Actually Blinkmoth is one ...

Re: [Official] State of Modern Thread (B&R 07/13/2020)
someone in mtgs mentioned "rise of affinity", is the deck coming back up again? There's talk in our Emeria Titan thread at mtgs about using Kataki war's wage... so maybe affinity, or some other aggro artifact deck is making a good performance? :thinking: It is coming back, or it is at lea...

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Swarm Intelligence
Unless you cheat/ramp/luck this out its too expensive and comes out too late even for commander because you probably wont have enough instants or sorcery to get leverage.

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Sundering Stroke
This is what I like to call the 6+ mana jank that WOTC just cannot step away from in red. There are 6+cc cards in red that can do alot of lifting, but they are predominantly not the norm. This is in the somewhat playable category verse others in that it could be relevant in some cases but the quanti...

Re: [Official] State of Modern Thread (B&R 07/13/2020)
Very possible cause they are using boros as the base colors for the new stuff and Galvanic Blast Lightning Bolt Shrapnel Blast Boros Charm are easy includes that help enable wins and can be tasked with walker removal or just straight up Oblivion Ring and its variants. The colorless version might hav...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion
Eh I personally think there is enough try and build around me stuff in this set to at least get a 2nd print run. Having fetches that have only been printed once will help that along as well as the alt art for said fetches.

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion
Oh I'd have no idea myself. I've literally never played modern, so I'm clueless. But this is all pretty reassuring. All that said I think Dauthi Voidwalker will stay expensive. I'm also hoping for Ragavan, Nimble Pilferer to drop in price, because right now, holy %$#%. Obviously fetches dropping wo...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion
If your really wanting alot of the cards in a set and they are commons uncomons you want to hit up Ebay a few days to a week after product hits for complete sets of said commons and uncomons. Usually I find even in very popular sets you can get a 4x whatever amount of them all for a good 60 to 70 do...

Re: Possible new Kamigawa set in the pipeline?
Ghost in the Shell magic the gathering style would be cool. If it was a booster product, I'd buy two draft booster boxes, a set booster box, and a bundle. But then again, Ghost in the Shell: SAC is literally my favorite anime series. Shame about Origa On a different note I think original Kamigawa b...

Re: [Official] State of Modern Thread (B&R 07/13/2020)
Got a question here since this is the most active thread on the modern forums. Does the testing and possibility of the new modular creatures need its own thread or should it carry on in the Affinity thread? I say this because I see nothing I would possibly want that actually has the affinity mechani...

Re: [Off-Topic] Community Chat Thread
Eh if you mean modern I'm still in the middle of trying that to see if it works, if you meant commander Jor kadeen as mentioned above seems like a good fit. On the modern side I'm thinking of actually skipping the ravager, sacrilege that that may sound like. But honestly you have to build around him...

Re: [Official] State of Modern Thread (B&R 07/13/2020)
Eh I would argue that, since all the others I found on the gatherer were copies of Negate , Mana Leak , or Counterspell which have wider rages of use than Essence Scatter even with the planeswalker tag added on. I will admit that last tag on saves it somewhat but its still very very narrow. Spellst...

Re: [Official] State of Modern Thread (B&R 07/13/2020)
On it's own though, Subtlety is the most broken of the bunch. Don't under estimate that card. Traditionally, creatures that also act as counterspells have done pretty well in any format they're in.

Yeah the day Splinter Twin comes back is the same day that the original artifact lands come back for affinity. I've never really understood the fascination with Splinter twin deck players. It dominated too much and it was insanely hard for any other deck to actually interact with meaningfully. Wheth...
