May 29, 2019A_E_I_Own_U posted a message on The End of an EraOwn a forum that is similar in size and costs NO WHERE near 5 digits. That i can assure you. Unless they renting the domain and whoever owns it wants more money, then they aren't paying anywhere close to that.Posted in: Articles

Chandra, fire artisan seems like a boss in this matchup. Anyone else getting blownout by her VS red?
It smashed me every game i played against red with this. Secondly, I'm also not a fan of the theater. How does it help you in the control matchup that much? Because of its mana cost, it happens to be up against a counterspell or a mortify if cast on curve or the player can remove it in resp to you getting any cards.
It doesn't play like an aggro deck at all. Only 7 one drops has me not getting one on turn 1 every time like it should.
It leans more like a midrange style deck. What do you think of [c]chandra, fire artisan[c] over the theater. Seems to play better with the creature defense, judith and is more consistent card draw than theater as well as a faster clock and harder to remove permanent.
I enjoyed the red deck you made, this one seems to not do well against the meta atm. I also see no reason to play hackrobat. The card is a limited bomb. It is pretty lackluster in constructed. Especially with only 7 ways to trigger the spectacle on turn 2.
Also, no need to be so defensive. You explained your reasons for the inclusions/exclusions. That is pretty much all you need to do.
As for the bedevil vs angrath's rampage debate, mana does have a lot to do with it. Although, tamiyo, collector of tales certainly needs to be considered.
I ended up playing the list with teferi's over the weekend.
4 Teferi, Time Raveler
4 Adanto Vanguard
4 Leonin Vanguard
4 Skymarcher Aspirant
4 Dauntless Bodyguard
4 Benalish Marshal
3 Venerated Loxodon
4 Law-Rune Enforcer
4 Legion's Landing
4 History of Benalia
12 Plains
4 Hallowed Fountain
4 Glacial Fortress
4 Spell Pierce
3 Demystify
2 Tocatli Honor Guard
4 Baffling End
I was able to slaughter esper, a homebrew mill deck and an Izzet deck because of tef3
The only deck i ran into trouble with was mono red. Chandra gave me the bizness.
EDIT: a few days later now and i can't seem to beat any esper decks *shrug*
Red is always a gamble. You just have to press pretty hard.
In my new list i went to
+4x Thief of Sanity
-4x Dreadhorde Invasion
The invasion is a bad card. Don't get stuck in that trap.
I just bought 27 of them off of Tcgplayer for 0.15 each. Was a mistake but *shrug* i still got em.
Card kingdom has em for $2 each though. Your LGS can pound salt. lol
The red one has a few bad cards in it.
-2x lava coil (move to sb)
-1x bane fire (move to sb)
-2 mountains
+1 experimental frenzy
+4 light up the stage
Then you literally have the top deck atm. so for $5 you can run a tier 1 deck.
Izzet is absolutely smoked by esper...that is why it doesn't do well atm. If you are just playing casual table top games, then it is really good.
+2x history of benalia ($2)
+2x legion's landing ($2)
+4 law-rune enforcer
+4 venerated loxodon
-4 ajani's pridemate
-4 healer hawk
-3 pride of conquerors
-1 hunted witness
and you can fit Gideon into the mix too.
+3x gideon
-2x adanto vanguard
-1 law-rune enforcer
The golgari is the hardest to tune atm. The deck had fallen off before they printed them. The explore package is good. Could also add
path of discovery and bolas's citadel for a pretty good combo
district guide is bad, seeker's squire isn't great and you need vraska's contempt in thee somewhere.
If you want specific reasons to why these changes are, feel free to ask. I currently run RDW (the red deck) in standard and it does good VS every single matchup. WW is also very very solid still. Even moreso now with gideon and unbreakable formation. I used to play izzet drakes before Esper fixed itself up against red and sultai.
Haven't played golgari for almost a year now, but that doesn't mean it isn't feasible. Pretty much on the same level as izzet.
