I don't know if the Stoneforge Mystic unban is good for meta balance or not, but if nothing else it's exciting. It's an exciting card that people want to play with. I'm all for giving it a shot. The bans are both correct, if a little overdue. Rampaging Ferocidon - technically correct, but yeah, the...

It will be much easier for fair decks to police unfair decks now that they don't have so many axes to cover. UW is already positive against Tron before it has to dedicate so many slots to GY hate. Jund and UW will rein in decks like Infect and the format should be much slower. We can't go down the ...

What do you think of Goblin Matron / Imperial Recruter given how good a few of the other goblins seem like they would be. Moggcatcher could also go a ways for goblin package. I could see some other goblins like Goblin Assassin also being interesting if you did pick up a goblin tutor package. Gempalm...

I totally am on board for the Faithless Looting ban, I just feel like there are so many other things just as degenerate. It will shift the modern format but I really don't see this change slowing anything down just changing the faces of the decks we see. I was actually hoping to get another ban or t...

I have to say I am completely behind all of the changes today. I know its just going to shift the meta to somewhere else and its not likely to slow things down much but all around approval from me.

Now I just need them to hit neoform, infect, and tron and maybe I will be halfway happy with the meta.

Wow, I have to say I am fairly happy with wizard's ban changes today. I don't play legacy(ohhh thats vintage lol) but the standard / modern changes look great to me. I honestly didn't think wizards had it in them to ban faithless looting.

Apologies in advance if this isn't where this should go. I know on sally we would drop these announcements in the rumor mill. https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/news/august-26-2019-banned-and-restricted-announcement-2019-08-26 Standard: Rampaging Ferocidon is unbanned. Modern: Hogaak, Ari...

I have been talking to Tryno via chat a bit about this deck and objectives of it. I think in a nutshell it just needs to put up defenses, draw cards, and enable Kamahl. That said, I am adjusting a few of the cards in here because I think I was trying to make my alternate threats more of a thing than...

[mention]reltastic[/mention] I am not really convinced on the soul sisters plan to be honest. I often have TONS of life when I play my list and the question is more of how to stop combo / voltron opposition as well as build a board that can threaten opponents as I eat all of the wraths. Mercy Killin...

I ordered some sweet cards for this deck and I had a few more thoughts and things I wanted to change. In general I wanted to shore up my defenses a bit more, add some more ramp, and draw. I felt like I had a bit too many 6+ drops and I wanted to keep the number of mana hungry things down a bit more ...

I like it a LOT more in a deck with 7+ fetchlands (aka 2+ color decks). I was actually just putting some consideration into it in my Trostoni deck. Its a real cool card but I think it gets much stronger when using a lot more fetchlands and or sac tactics.

Rings of brighthearth and illusionist's bracers seem like automatic includes given what you're trying to do. You're already running gratuitous violence, so maybe angrath's marauders too? Rings of brighthearth - Originally I held off questioning if it was better than an untap but...... I suppose its...

Kamahl, Pit Fighter hqdefault.jpg The idea behind this deck is sort of a question of how many lightning bolt s can I throw at a time if I try real hard. This is a big mana red build featuring Kamahl, Pit Fighter|Odyssey as the commander. You will see in this list there is a lot of mana sinks as wel...

What the actual hell is this lol.

[mention]Feyd_Ruin[/mention]....... is your avy space larger than ours? I guess being the owner has its perks

In case my Ghired fumbling is transferable here, Voice of Many is on the winmore side. You want your draw to be relatively unconditional, and this only properly rewards you if you're quite ahead. I've had better luck with Elemental Bond and Garruk's Packleader , you can copy + populate the latter f...

Take a look at my Trostani on Sally. Similar idea and even thread title. Herald of the Host is bonkers. I thought the title concept sounded vaguely familiar lol. I will see if I can come up with something else to not steal your idea. Herald of the Host - I might come back to test it at some point. ...

I see there is a tab for cost of cards but I don't see a total deck cost. I don't know how big of a deal this would be but if someone is looking to field something it might be nice to know what the list is worth even though nobody really every buys entire decks.

I'll throw in a couple quick suggestions based on your observations: - In general, you seem to have a lot of the token-makers that force you to exile the target. As good as they are when they work, the risk is that eventually all of your best token targets will be gone for good, and that's usually ...

Vanish Into Memory could be really fun. Its still a reasonable card in a lot of cases acting as filter but it wouldn't go infinite, it would draw 6 / discard 1 if you target him and give you only one extra turn. The hard part of what you are after here is that you are looking for one shot ways to m...

So, this deck is a bit of an oddball. I like that it looks like I should be able to field this quite cheaply but it is not a budget deck in my intentions. Combo - I don't intend to infinite combo or Helix Pinnacle . Its a personal choice and I don't want to. Cheap Cantrips - You will see in my list ...

I'm excited for most of the generals, and as much as it pains me to say, the Naya deck in particular. I'm going to end up buying two sets of all the decks mainly to support my LGS. I also think since I spent enough time %$#% on the precons I'm going to attempt an experiment where I play the deck un...

I'm not particularly hyped for this release. There's a general or two I'm interested in building and a couple cards I'll definitely run somewhere, but nothing that I'm frothing at the mouth to get my hands on. I will admit that Fire Emblem is probably more to blame for that than anything else, thou...

I feel like having waited like a week since spoilers stopped for commander 2019 my hype level has dropped a bit. I don't actually have a commander I am ready to build as of right now of them. I still think maybe I would pick up the RB and Jeskai decks if I can get my hands on them at reasonable pric...

I have not played or seen it played yet but from the get go I was kind of concerned that Ghired looked sort of like a 5 mana Geist of Saint Traft in that you are splitting your damage output and have a low powered commander who probably needs assistance to get through midrange boards but also has in...
