  • posted a message on 4 color deck building tips/ides
    While 4 color can be fun, it can also be stressful. Realize you will be playing 8 tri-lands plus temples, so a good amount of your lands come into play tapped. There will be times you are color cut and/or can't play a card. However, there are also times you surprise your opponent because they didn't expect you to play something.

    While you specified color combination, is your list aggro, midrange, or control? What black or black/x cards are you thinking about adding?

    I've been playing 4 color for a little over a month with good success. A found a list on a mtgo daily and been changing it slightly most every time I play it. So it is possible in the current Standard game. However you are also speculating on new cards while asking about current things, just seems a little confusing to me.

    Does anyone have a template for the morph tokens? Basically I'm looking for M15 Clear Token template. Thanks!

    Speaking of art on the PWP webpage, we still have the same 3 art choices for the scorecard. When are we going to have more choices?
    For those that don't know, scorecard art is the art in the circle on the PWP webpage between the lifetime points and your level.

    I mean page has been changing with the addition of each new block (RtR, M15, now KTK) and there have been guilds and now clans.
    I want something new besides Naya Battlemage, Grand Abolisher, or Radha, Heir to Keld.

    I tried to contact someone about this, but after the first reply of acknowledgement I never heard back. Maybe someone else will have better luck, if anyone else cares.

  • posted a message on Midnight Storm (M15 Combo) (Concept) - PLAY YOUR ENTIRE DECK IN 1 TURN!
    So I built a version of this deck and played it in a 4 rounds tiered standings tournament. I went 2-1-1 and only went off via combo twice. I tried to mull for guard/beck/acceptable amount of lands. Even though I was 4 color, I only got color screwed once. I feel it was pretty fun to play but not for serious events. I also feel like control and mono b are bad for this deck via permission, hand disruption, and creature removal. There are a few times I got flooded at 22-23 lands. Other times I didn't draw relevant things (like drawing all of my raise the alarms) but maybe it was my build. One time against someone that stalled on lands, I got T2 raise the alarms T3 midnight guard T4 triplicate spirits, they died 2 turns later. I also enjoyed the retraction helix on guard to return attacker, they replay the attacker (untapping guard) and EOT returning the same guy again. Just some food for thought.

    That's from Saito's twitter pic, so it's not really Woo's list. I played it at FNM last week going 3-2 into top 8. I didn't care for that God as well. It has a lot of ramp, which you need to hit your win-cons (elspeth, p-bounty). The font/presence are okay because a)it replaces itself (draw card/get land), b)cheap card draw with eidolon out, and c)ups your count for sphere of safety. I adjusted the land base to play more white in sb.

    I saw another player go junk colors using archangel of thune with scavenging ooze, courser of kruphix, nyx-fleece ram, etc. The black had underworld connection and removal/sb hand disruption. His sheep got HUGE too.

    Oh yeah, mirror matches are awkward, save your banishing light appropriately...

  • posted a message on When New Score Card Art?
    Quite a necro but okay. About a week after I got the info to contact Tony, I left a message on FB. I got a reply 2 min later, pretty much he was busy but interested in talking more. I linked this, at his request, and left another message but never got another reply.

    Simply put, I would still be interested in new scorecard art. However, I feel there's a lot you can do to add towards the planeswalker points web page. There's already a Theros theme feel to it, so it will probably change when M15 comes out. How about layout themes then? You could do favorite color, planeswalker, guild, tribe, etc. Just more options would be nice, please and thank you.

    Do you guys think 1x Courser of Kruphix would be playable over the 3rd/4th Kitchen Finks? It's got the same mana cost, some deck manipulations with fetches/domri/chord/pod, lifegain to offset fetch/shockland, and with 4 toughness survives bolt/anger.

    Quote from ewoksonhoth
    I played a guy a few weeks ago at FNM who played a very odd deck centered around Possibility Storm. Basically he'd cast it, cast a creature (usually Young Pyromancer, or another two drop) and hope the next would be one of his Worldspine Wurms. Needless to say neither of us could stop laughing through the match, especially when I tried to do the same playing a fattie gruul deck and ended up topdecking a Mistcutter Hydra straight to the graveyard.


    So this isn't my list, I found it at the bottom of a PTQ bad experience report. Played it at FNM for fun, went 3-2.

    Assemble the Resonator

    Maindeck (60)
    3 Strionic Resonator
    4 Detention Sphere
    2 Chained to the Rocks
    3 Possibility Storm
    4 Boros Reckoner
    4 Assemble the Legion
    4 Temple of Silence
    4 Temple of Triumph
    4 Steam Vents
    4 Sacred Foundry
    4 Hallowed Fountain
    3 Mizzium Mortars
    4 Temple of Deceit
    2 Blood Crypt
    1 Merciless Eviction
    2 Omenspeaker
    3 Dreadbore
    4 Magma Jet
    1 Opportunity

    Sideboard (15)
    2 Chained to the Rocks
    1 Possibility Storm
    2 Supreme Verdict
    1 Mizzium Mortars
    2 Omenspeaker
    2 Slaughter Games
    2 Thoughtseize
    2 AEtherling
    1 Dispel

    Pretty much you copy ALL the triggers. 2 for 1 D-spheres, Possibility Storms, etc. You can even copy your scry land triggers. I had 2 resonators and assemble ticking to 4, copy, copy, swung with 15 soldiers and won lol. With P-storm out, my opponent kept playing Reaper of the Wilds/Polukranos and instead got all 4 of his Sylvan Carryatid. He was mad but laughing...

    If you want multiple attack triggers, just play it with Aurelia, the Warleader ;P

    I know you're talking about std, but I finally got to use one in draft. My triggers were Advocate of the Beast, Pitchburn Devils, Young Pyromancer, Witchstalker, and Academy Raider.

    On topic, I did a search with the parameters standard and "when" within rules text. Here's what I got (excluding the previously listed):

    I just picked this up at Walmart today. I will post pics later tonight when I get more time. It's got the same ring symbol and shooting star logo as Angel of Glory's Rise, but the picture is the same as M13. It comes with 3 boosters (RTR, GTC, DGM) which also appear in different order in the packaging looking at multiple packages, and cost $11.94+tax.
