Magic the Gathering thread

i mean sometimes top dog is only 35-40% but that's best case standard scenario

at least in modern sideboards open up options but hey wotc leaving possibly millions on the floor because they won't price out for programmers for eternal

Some metas are cool cuz even if it’s annoying I can play mono red and it’s hard to close games fast rn

But others don’t turn every game into 30 minute matchups like where’s my mono green mirrors rofl

Monored aggro showing up as a good deck in pro play now.

Second highest winrate just below gruul adventures

I’ve seen that but I still don’t trust it is actually good
Just was too many bad yorion decks running around

It kind of shits on dimir. They just go under with embercleave

Is that why dimir decks are running more essence scatter and stuff in sideboards?

Honestly tho u just side board in removal and lullmage and win on card draw

Yeah, but then that slows them down too. They have to deal with tons of creatures and if one stays up and embercleave comes out on it it's gg

with this list you just board out 3 dispute and board in 2 essence and 1 lullmage and you're the same deck as before that can grind out wins imo

these people playing weird yidaro cycling in high platinum is funny
rogues ftw diamond get!

limited tiers

tier 1- high synergy, you get good performers other decks have no interest in
WB clerics
UG kicker
UR wizards

tier 2- relies predominantly on raw power level or is inconsistent
WR warriors
RB party
UB rogues

tier 3- still viable but you want both of your colors to be open
everything else

addendum i've only splashed a couple times so far in like 30 drafts but i haven't found it to be worth it for the most part. the gold uncommons don't really do much on a raw power level

How's Kaladesh Remastered?

Idk I just play standard cuz no wildcards

didn't particularly enjoy limited for kld but i didn't play it much so i haven't tried it yet. the energy mechanic is just so meh
