Wow, you make it sound like there wasnt this thing called MTGNews that you guys split off from, and (rightfully) stole all the members from.
Shame

I can name 2 that are fairly close, but probably more 80/20.
Elves v Merfolk, its a super hard fish match
Mill v Storm, Ive won 3 games against mill with my storm deck, but ive only played it on paper against 1 person, so maybe its their build
Fallout is because I like to try and line it up with Swiftspears and Mages, so that I can retain part of my field
This build isnt super strong for Lavaman, and my notes and my gut say that Bomat is a better choice than Lavaman and Wizards lightning, maybe if we can get another truly decent red wizard It could come back in place of Skullcrack
Could dredge survive completely losing a dredger in something nerfed wasnt printed to take its place? like ban stinkweed and print another dredge 4 thats playable? Dredge is a deck i genuinely enjoy in the meta most of the time, and i was of the opinion that banning GGT was the wrong move anyways
I feel like banning stinkweed is the end of dredge, but i do think they could get away with banning thug without killing the deck. Chill is the obvious choice though imho
Thats better than i expected, but man, dredge is a nightmare with creeping chill. Something will have to be done to reel it back because its just a beast overall
This, all of this, ive skated around the meta for 3 years either playing jank that is good or making odd changes to tier decks. And overall ive done quite well for myself, i bought into fish for like $250 and only paid like 3 entry fees before the credit train started rolling pretty well. Went from fish to infect to affinity to bloo to Mardu Nahiri to BG Eldrazi and finally have settled on burn and its variants for almost a year now
These days i only play MTGO, and im finding huge success in mono-red burn. Creeping chill doesnt hurt as much without fetches/shocks/eidolon to screw your day up. Sometimes adapting to the meta requires you to think outside the box
I have been working on different builds for a couple of months and need some sideboard help. This list is NOT meant to be a budget list and any card on the table within reason. The deck is purposely Mono-colored, and i really have enjoyed playing it, and my win% has went up quite a few points since i started playing it full time
4 Bomat Courrier
4 Goblin Guide
4 Monastery Swiftspear
4 Soul Scar Mage
4 Ghitu Lavamancer
4 Lightning Bolt
4 Lava Spike
4 Rift Bolt
3 Skullcrack
3 Searing Blood
3 Risk Factor
My current SB is:
3 Tormods Crypt
1 Skullcrack
1 Searing Blood
3 Alpine Moon
4 Smash to Smithereens
3 Volcanic Fallout
Any ideas for making it better?
Yay, a voice of reason...
Lets give him some time to catch up, and see how he feels about things
I had made a small comment earlier about feeling his claim was BS. Like I said when i placed the vote, outside of a smoking gun or deadline thats where my vote is today.
As for reads, Me posting as much as I have today is a fluke, Usually Wed, Thu, Fri Im lucky to get 1 post per day, but I will take some time to flesh out some of my other leads if I have time, if not I have 12 hours of watching paint dry at work on saturday, the lurkers have me a bit iffy though.
Because you are chaos incarnate, its not that i dislike playing with you, i just dont trust my reads of you in the early game because of the way you play. I tend to like the games we are in together overall
Its one of those can be either side roles, But the fact that you didnt try and defend yourself before claiming makes me lean even harder towards scum. Why not fight off accusations today then save claiming for another time?
Ive seen it, cant remember which game though, it was one of my first ones back the other time. Hunt ended up pocketing someone with it IIRC
That might be the first thing that has came out of your mouth that makes sense, even if it is a lie
Good players at this stage are scumhunting by setting up questions that will be alignment/dichotomy related in later days. Outside of blind luck or scum slips day 1 is the least important day at the time, and the most important day at the end of the game.
Basically what you want to be able to do, is make sure that at some point during day 1 everyone has been asked hard questions about the game by someone, even if its not you, and even better for multiples. This data in the late game when analyzing voting and wagon patterns is very helpful in narrowing down, or atleast it has been for me, and for some others ive seen with similar styles
