The UB control deck tilts me so much, but it's beatable. Just annoying that all they do is board wipe for 15 turns so every game you don't win by turn 4 ends up 30 minutes long
Yeah but given it’s prevalence your sideboard should be ready to own it games 2 and 3
Yeah, extinction event just owns so hard unless you can counterspell it because almost all the rogues are odd cost. Also, the ones that run ashiok are just awful
Ashiok erasure is so bad lmao
Also almost all the best creatures in the game are odd except like robber
Yeah, I didn't mean awful as in shitty to play against, I meant awful as in bad. Consistently easy to beat
Oh yup
The ones that are literally all counterspells/removal/board wipes with crawling barrens and ashiok as the only wincons are so fucking annoying. They're dogshit but just drag the game out so goddamn long
You gotta open this to see the actual image

sad cruel control noises
It wouldn't bother me so much if they could actually win. But the ashiok one is particularly annoying because it usually can't and is basically all counterspells and removal with no wincon other than Ashiok. I'm fine with control making the game long and frustrating if they can actually win
Monored aggro seems good, how is it on the more competitive end? Boros knights embercleave seems decent
Haven’t seen any high mythic streamers playing it and the only post ban big tourney had mono green food win and lurrus rogues second
i just like having a fistful of cards, not that i'm a degenerate rifler
one thing i do not miss in paper magic is the riflers. flick flick flick, untapped mana? flick flick flick, cards in hand?
best part of 8rack is they have no cards to rifle
My main EDH deck is a dimir mill with some big dick creatures, 15 counterspells, some clones, some flicker, and then a shitload of draw so I know the feeling
Don’t feel like grinding to diamond in this stupid yorion meta
isn't that standard MO ad nauseum
