I trophied with this Urza List in NBLM Yesterday. The List has a lot of combo lines, its surprising how few resources you need to go off. On the other hand it can be very clunky. Still a lot to explore. As always feel free to shoot suggestions. #paper" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">mtggoldfish.com/deck/7654507#p…

Vintage cubing over the holidays gave me some drive to play constructed again. Trophied the first Pio League with this Pile I threw together in 30 minutes. The funny part is I played vs 3 opponents and had to wait 30 minutes for the last pairing. What a Format 🤣

@McWinSauce Nice list! I am wondering if Lookout is worth the green splash.

Couldn't get this pile to a spot I liked before todays qualifier. Deadly cover up + ketra is a board wipe that draws 2 and should turn her on to attack. Forage / verse synergies. Started as a seasons past deck but had to grow up and decide to leave the past in the past.

I have been a professional writer and editor for over 10 years and I will edit your guides and work with you to improve your SB section, all for $60. (If you write a bible like @dominharvia I will charge more lol) I edited PV’s articles when he posted on Substack. RT please

Theo Jung@theodore_jung

Imagine paying more for a single sideboard guide than a monthly New Yorker subscription and getting this lol. Friend bought it to his disappointment and while the entire guide is not completely useless, its disappointing for $15 poorly made guides to be the norm for Magic content

@IslandGoSAMe @fireshoes @FaithlessMTG Interesting, missing some key cards though like the Vehicles and Sea Gate Resto.

@SoIMBAGallade Well i am thinking of strategies that don't try to win by ground combat like engine decks that want to interact some. The 1 power difference matters a lot vs aggro decks. Like giving a swiftspear witness protection feels still awful.

English

Gallade@SoIMBAGallade·10 Eyl

@MrRaeb What in your opinion makes this tangibly different than something like Witness Protection? I have tried UG midrange builds in the past (including TKS/Vehicles stuff) and witness protection was always underwhelming, I'd be surprised if this moves the needle for that type of shell.

Deckbuilder rant incoming: This card is a pretty big deal! Blue never got even remotely playable removal spells. This opens up new strategies in some color combinations. For example UG mid/control lists in Pioneer.

Challenge 5-1, lost QF, kinda won but timed out when casting 2nd approach, was gg though, Showcase 7-2, couldn't top 8 as I lost 2 rounds early, felt ahead but both Amalia opponents had just the right cards. Deck is great, played Proctors with new toys for MTGO meta. @fireshoes

@MtgMoniz There is definetly a lot of unexplored territory with the amalia package. Glad you are doing some of that hard work.

Moniz0801@MtgMoniz·25 Nis

4-1 with a drastically different approach, Amalia Binder. Lively Dirge was phenomenal, 5 stars. MD Seize were great Loved keeping low land counts with 4 Seed 4 Oath 4 Cenote, although i'm not sold on the 8 spells.

Moniz0801@MtgMoniz

First 5-0. Feels horribly misbuilt and with no plan B but it felt so incredibly ahead of the meta in raw power that it doesn't probably matter. A lot of things I want to change here

@ghett_smart @HRG_Topdeckhero @fireshoes Yeah thats why i like to build my own decks, i like to give people headaches 😀 I think g2 was rough for you because you missed a lot of landdrops, not sure i piloted g2 well tbh. I guess the mu is about even with 2 good pilots, depends a lot on how certain interaction lines up.

@MrRaeb @HRG_Topdeckhero @fireshoes I definitely struggled knowing what was going on it our match. Looking at your list, I think your strategy is trying to fight card advantage is smart but I’d be fine playing the matchup knowing what I know now. Love the cavern+cataracts tech

🏆#1 of the MKM Season with UR Atraxativity, did not drop a Game 😯 This 60 feels very solid so far. Having a way to hardcast Atraxa solves a lot of problems! The SB is a bit experimental, more testing is needed.
