Wild Ricochet
not 100% sure on how this works.....will it stop a rev?
is this card good at all?
just remembered this card existed.....always looking for options....
Is that mono black rack/discard deck viable? i mean it looks pretty cool. I think it would surprise a lot of people at my fnms lol
Never played it - and does anyone have a link to a decklist that is legit? (competitive)

Those are all staples. There are a lot of modern cards that are playable but don't make top 8 decklists because A) their archetype doesn't match up favorably with the current meta B) they get squeezed out of the 75 by cards that fit the deck better. This doesn't mean the cards themselves are any less playable. Think about Knight of the Reliquary. It used to be in at least a couple top 8 decks at every tournament, but now you might see one a month. It's still a damn good card, but it doesn't quite fit the meta anymore, mostly thanks to Nacatl being banned and DRS being printed
Sure there's TONS of cards that are playable in all sets
But if you want to win u play the best cards
Only cards from tier 1 decks are playable for you? That must be boring
There are a few results from tournament placing decks that use Whip and Bow (The Rock, Living End, and Junk lists). Just because they're not a format staple doesn't mean they are unplayable.
I know what ur saying
But when I think modern playable I think lilli, scavenging ooze, voice of resurgence...... Cards that impact the format.
Back to the OP yes it's def a weak set
But that's what we need IMO
I included that one because it's a unique effect that is playable. Dreadbore is probably better, but not everybody wants to splash red for it.
I'm actually running it in my Legacy deck, but that's a unique case as I needed something in esper that would kill a planeswalker but not an enchantment
Everything on that list was on mtgtop8.com when you search for modern lists (some for legacy). I agree they're not all going to make it into tier 1 decks, but they are all playable (which was the initial argument)
Well I guess my definition of playable is different....
When I see a now of nylea or a whip of erebos in top 8 deck from a real event I'll be a believer
If those cards are not all being used in Tier 1 decks some are being used in Tiers 2 decks I saw more than one time Daxos being played in WU agro lists
Whip and Merchant maked a new deck == Mono B devotion
Whip is used in some reanimators ( some with Thragtusk) Anger of the gods is almost === kill agro and is played alot as a sideboard card Reaper of the Wilds is played in BG Rock Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx saw play in merfolk and other devotion decks Steam Augury saw some play in Draw go lists Stormbreath Dragon sees plays in Mono R agro Bow of Nylea is played in BG Rock and some Junds Lists Bident of Thassa, Thassa, God of the Sea and Master of the waves are played in merfolk Swan Song is played in half the Uxxx control decks
i saw people playing Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver in cruel ultimatum decks
Anger of the gods is a good SB card
Master of waves is in merfolk
Swan song is a SB card
The rest of what the other stuff isn't in competitive modern.
Maybe you will see them in brews at your lgs but not in competitive real modern
Dude wtf do u play modern lol???!!!!
Like 2 maybe 3 of those cards are modern playable
I hope ur trollin
As far as the set goes yes it's extremely bland compared to other sets but I'm glad mtg did it this way. It's different and more of a "fair" format.
I just hope more decks are viable. If the meta stays as is standard will suck then you will see some complaints
Probably better than searing blaze since you don't need landfall to make it work (even more awkward to get landfall as instant because you need an uncracked fetch), should see a fair amount of play. RR is going to keep a few decks from playing this, though.
Modern RDW will probably adopt this over searing blaze.....
i think its better as theres not that many 3 toughness creatures in modern as oposed to 2 and 1
The problem card is Thoughtseize which is just a beating. The deck really is basically a combo deck and consequently it is vulnerable to being disrupted in the same way that every combo deck is: discard the key cards before they can be cast.
If you can't stick a Garruk (or at least a Domri) then the deck is basically just a pile and it gets taken apart by Doom Blades trivially killing defenseless green fatties.
Second this.
Its a rough matchup - which is why im off of GR fatties fir the time being
I think... its not right to downplay them so hard, until of course you've played on camera for all to see. Its a different type of pressure than being in front of our computers.
im just looking for edges that havent been covered yet.

If they raise any higher i'll stop buying (the few that I buy now)
The kids can buy them - Me Ill just buy what I need. its not hard to be patient and wait for good prices online.
packs are already a freaking WASTE of money as it is. 5 bux a pop is stupid.
