but one thing I really like is Rancor its usually a home run when it hits play and the reaction of your opponent when you play rancor on your gravecrawler is priceless what are your thoughts on Rancor
current listDeckMagic OnlineOCTGN2ApprenticeBuy These Cards Creatures:4 Gravecrawler
4 Diregraf Ghoul
4 Slitherhead
4 Blood Artist
4 Geralf's Messenger

I totally agree with the Jund zombies, and like the humans too... have you thought about a Jund midrangy deck that could be viable perchance? -

also are you Boarderland Ranger's worth much in a two color deck? - To post a comment, please login or register a new account.
Really Love this deck, I used to play RUGScapshift about 4-5 years ago then played BGRWolf Run Ramp. love those decks.
trying to get a grasp on a decklist (I own pretty much every variation of cards the deck uses) and will be going into a semi-unknown meta
few things I've noticed and wonder why: some decklists either run 1-2 Spellskites & others 1-3 Wood Elves or Courser of Kruphix and some none of the above just the Classic package of
4 Sakura-Tribe Elder
also noticed lists varying a bunch in the
4 Explore,
4 Khalni Heart Expedition
is this due to meta shifts or personal preference?
Hour of Promise is another one I see some list running 0 and others running 4 I assume it isn't used in versions that don't use Prismatic Omen
Lastly Huntmaster of the Fells is definitely not as great as it was back in the day (in standard) but I was honestly a little surprised to only see 1-2 copys of him in a couple of lists on MtgGoldfish, He dies easily to removal but you get 2 life + a 2/2 wolf token (The JUND player in my is coming out! give me all the 2 for 1's WUBALUBADUBDUB am I right!?) can be good vs aggro and in grindy games...
maybe I'm missing something or just wrong.
anyways...
feedback would be lovely.
Cheers!
(almost a year)
Getting back into standard and I've come to admire the Boros Burn deck currently getting jobs done all around in top 8's
and this is the current list I have with a few blank spaces in need of filling and some ideas I have that I'd like to know others thoughts on(due to not knowing the meta via firsthand experience and coming out of a 7 month break of magic.
2 Ash Zealot
2 Young Pyromancer
4 Chandra's Phoenix
Other Spells:
4 Shock
4 Magma Jet
4 Skullcrack
4 Lightning Strike
4 Boros Charm
4 Warleader's Helix
2 Chained to the Rocks
1 Godless Shrine
4 Sacred Foundry
4 Temple of Triumph
2 Plains
12 Mountains
3 Anger of the Gos
1 Revoke Existence
1 Blind Obedience
4 Boros Reckoner
2 Assemble the Legion
3 Toil // Trouble
1 Mizzium Mortars
only 57 probably gonna throw in some Searing Blood.
few things that I've noticed about Boros Burn is I didn't see a single Boros Reckoner in any of the lists that top 8'd... is this because of Doom Blade, Heros Downfall, ect? I feel like the meta is slow and Reckoner could be great vs most of the decks aside from control.
I'm not sure if its correct for my to run a 2/2 split of Young Pyromancer and Ash Zealot but after spending some time on cockatrice its not completely stupid to do so this brings me to my main point of discussion for this post!
WHY DOESN"T ANYONE PLAY ORACLE OF BONES
3/1 Haste, Tribute 2 if they don't pay u can cast a free spell and if they do you get a 5/3 haster for 4
In my testing I've found he is usually a 5/3 because everyone is afraid of Boros burn and getting a free burn spell is just too much
Am I crazy for thinking he could be a bomb for Boros Burn?
In past seasons I've felt that red was good just not now also that was just my opinion
Haunted Plate Mail , Aetherling the new Elspeth and Jace, Memory adept are all good win-cons that get turned off via Pithing Needle at which point you either counter it with Annul run a split of win-cons or Detention Sphere it.
If you bothered to read a few of the other posts in this thread you may know that!
that being said from the cards we have available in standard I think R is weak for Control and that 3 colors might not work if Burning Earth is popular
we obviously have some awesome U cards and the 2nd strongest is W followed closely by B and honestly I am not an esper fan but I do think that would be where its at if you were to go 3 colors
things to consider:
White
Sphinx's Revelation, Supreme Verdict, Azorius Charm, Celestial Flare, Angel of Serenity, Render Silent, Detention Sphere , Blind Obedience, Planar Cleansing
Black
Desecration Demon, Thoughtsieze, Underworld Connections, Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver, Doom blade, Hero's Downfall, Mind Grind, Psychic Strike
I'm not going to list red because I feel it is sub-par for control in theros (in my opinion)
after seeing Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver I feel like mill can really be a wincon with her, Jace, Memory adept and Psychic Strike you could probably mill them swiftly.
another direction I've been thinking about is [CARD]Haunted Plate Mail
[/CARD] and Aetherling and/or Angel of Serenity looping fun
Thoughts?
I'd be more than willing to fill in for pyro if he cannot make it
Confirmed^
Guess thats what I get for using a friends computer... on the fly
mull to 5 both games.
but I did lose game 1 due to a misplay rather than bad luck.
good luck pyro, I hope you do well.
he did this to me on a IQ months back... I guess we just have to wait?
as in tonight around now?
edit:don't mean to sound rude or anything but I just really wanna see the people going into round 3
true, but it looks(for now) like we lose farseek and that means 3 color decks lose their edge unless we get some new ramp/fix spell Burning Earth is pretty simple so long as decks using lots of non-basic lands run enchantment hate in the board they will be fine.
Cool, I've considering Bug but I feel after Rotation 3 color decks are not going to be king unless they print more dual lands
in the above comment by Complex Pants and I agree with it for the most party (aside from Slitherhead ever being playable.)
I think for Jund Deathrite might be able to find a home but more as a Grim Lavamancer filling 2 of (kinda like some Legacy Jund lists) as a way to get extra damage in and maybe some lifegain but as for now if you just want gy removal Scavaging ooze is where its at as he can double as a beater (standard Goyf if you will) on a side I think DRS should see more SB play but that is just my 2 cents.
Ever since I got my promo Staff of Nin I've wanted to test them in stuff and the card is just amazing!! pre RTR I played it in a Elf ramp deck (3 staff- 4 thundermaw hellkite, 3 wolfir silverheart some devil's play and Battle hymn) the raw CA from Nin is nigh unstoppable (yes you can get rid of nin ect) but it just puts you ahead fast and the ping is note worthy killing chumpers ect, good stuff.
I was wondering the same thing, that way this is going I feel as if it will also run late like the other IQ's...
I would prefer for that not to happen:D
