    Arclight has been a breeze for me. I just save the paths for TitI and then focus on just chipping them becasue while arclights can provide a solid burst of damage I found auriok champion has been an allstar. With Lingering Souls and Spectral procession proving enough air blockers I can normally get an Archangle or Pridemate to take them out. Its more of a war of attrition with the Phoenix deck i guess is what Im saying.

    With your build I could see arclight being more an issue due to the lack of fliers and the fact you are going more aggressive than that standard Sisters list.


    I gotta say with dredge and pheonix being top decks right now I love having 2 surgical extractions in the sideboard as it is a free spell that just can save me so much life. Hitting a bloodghast against dredge seals the game up majority of the time same to hitting a pheonix.

    Top 10 Reprints that I think are most likely:

    Wild Growth: This would help put enchantress back on the map, and be an overall great inclusion.


    As an Modern Enchantress player, I don't think Wild Growth is a big priority as the deck still has Utopia Sprawl. For Modern Enchantress to take off as a contender deck, it needs cards from the Legacy version.

    These cards are not on the reserved list, but they would boost Modern Enchantress decks if they become Modern-legal.

    Argothian Enchantress
    Enchantress's Presence
    Sterling Grove




    I'd love to see sterling grove however Bogels would become a crazy hard deck to play against with it legal. that being said I do think of the three listed it has the most potential to be printed along with wild growth.

    Okay I know discussion has been kinda dead her but I think currently Soul Sisters might be in one of the best positions It's been in for a long time. Auriok Champion currently hoses 7/10 of the top decks per goldfish.

    I know I use to hate the W/B versions but I have been testing out the black splash just for lingering souls and surgicals and dismember in the side and I have been enjoying it.

    I plan to play this for SCG Regionals in a week and would love any feedback anyone has.



    I do need to find space for my 3 copies of Leyline of sanctity in the side.

    Mergatroid_Jones: card seems fun. seems like it would a fun card in most limited sets. Solid card.

    VolrathTheRisen: I love the lore and feel of the card. It fits in the theme well while pushing a tad.

    JamBlock: The bison herd had me reading it a few time but then i realized the brilliance in the flavor.

    Subject16: I love this crad. I would gladly play it but pheonixs are a middle eastern and then european mythos creature so it doesnt fit the theme as much.

    mirrislegend: I love this take on the Iroquois god of thunder. Solid card simple but effective.

    Cardz5000: The bronco is super cool, i love the tribal effect that causes a stampede. However Horses are not native to north america. I will give this one a bit more of a pass on the lore as the more recent North american history is heavily involving horses.

    PanchoPonceN: I like this but I do feel this is a tad broken as its ceiling is so high.


    The winner is Jamblock.

    Individually spoilertagged judgments...

    Is this... is this an MtG-based reference to Canada's weird command economy on maple syrup?

    Even if that reference is unintentional, I love it! But I'm still not convinced that "GGG: 2 life & draw" is safe to unleash upon the non-Canuck population.


    I had thought about putting a spigot counter on the forest when tapping and making the tree tapper only able to put the spigot on a tree with out one to keep it more manageable but it seemed cluttered. but I'm glad you like it.

    any way MAd Max is up:

    You can only have so many hits, before it affects the price. UMA is $335 because it most likely has a lot of high value cards. If every card was minimum $10 then you'd have to charge between $20-25 a pack msrp. Or stores would just keep all the packs and sell singles.

    I believe Saffron Olive had pointed out if all the rares unknown before today were worth $0 the average pack EV is still about $10. That number can only go up.


    It's now at 14 USD with todays spoulers as of 4 pm eastern time.
