@mtgsigma @fireshoes @mtgsigma the genie grants your wish, loch mare gets boarded in against landfall and the mirror but not cub nor airbending

First time trying harmonizer deck from the pt and it felt pretty good. Only 2 challenges but both top 8. Changed the list a bit for the second challenge but unsure if the changes are even good. If I had one wish I would ask cftsoc if loch mare is good vs green decks @fireshoes

@MullalyConnor @FrowningTable I have a showcase keen eyed

@OlimGustavo But the majority of mill combo decks mill yourself to fuel degenerate graveyard combos that you can control

@OlimGustavo Every control wincon at the moment is damage or a hard lock with certain cards, virtually no good control decks rely on milling as a wincon other than post sideboard games for the control mirror. There are a few combo decks that mill your opponent out like pioneer scapeshift,

I'm not a big Magic player, more of a HS player but isn't the wincon of Control decks in Magic just making you deck out? I know the term mill started in Magic but are there any non control decks (aka combo decks) that aim to deck out your opponent by milling them?

@Hatch09760220 @Danidoesmagic I mean they are building to something, you being poor and broke with zero cards in hand while they have seven and kill you

@Danidoesmagic For me I hate decks designed around not letting anyone play magic. Stalls removals counterspells that aren’t building to anything just keeping the board clear because they can. Other colors have these decks but I see them more with blue. So it became I hate blue

When you're talking to someone about Magic the gathering and they say "Haha yeah I hate blue players"

@UsagiKaede1 @babuinstvo1 ITS BANNED? kinda deserved…. Well chthonian nightmare it is. Energy ahoy

@loothound @babuinstvo1 Recurring Nightmare. How are you expecting us to play that card.

What is your favourite off colour effect? Ill start-

@UsagiKaede1 @babuinstvo1 With your dark rituals and rite of flames of course, what other way is there to make mana in rakdos is there? There isn’t smh

@loothound @babuinstvo1 How are we playing that in rakdos?

@babuinstvo1 @UsagiKaede1 It’s called recurring nightmare sunspine lynx smh

@UsagiKaede1 Why is it green? I want it in my Rakdos deck!

@MTGdecks @ItsBarlo @GiggsMtg The Izzet Cauldron section mentions Glissa, when the deck doesn't play either version and is probably correct as sentinel or something

Thanks for the feedback! We rushed this one to get it ready before the weekend 😅 We've double-checked everything and fixed a couple of cards where autocomplete played a trick on us and we ended up using the wrong ones. Hopefully, everything should be all good now! (if anyone spots anything off, please let us know)

@fauxg1ove @FAir_Jordans what were the matchups?🥺

4-0 to win Store Champs with this sweet otters deck inspired by @FAir_Jordans list. Felt incredibly strong and well positioned right now

@mitchellsocks @Kellen_1035 Where’s your darkstar augers… not a true mono black fan smh…

@loothound @Kellen_1035 Sign me up with 4 Bob, 4 Bronco beatdown and I'm all for mono black in.... a very different meta

PT Decklist, was tuned out of Standard, picked it up Monday lol. Deck is probably strong, but I need to jam so much more. Hoping to snag points in Draft.

@Kellen_1035 @mitchellsocks Well it did dogshit over there so I doubt anyone wants to play mono black

@mitchellsocks thats fair, i can't imagine many people will be registering mono black at the PT, was mostly considering it from the context of its high playrate at the RC

@TCGplayer Love me to pick up some very fun maligned murders at Karlov manor boxes

Mayhem kicks off on Friday but there’s still one more chance for you to get your hands on some extra store credit before the big day! If you are a legal US resident living in one of the 50 states or the District of Columbia, 18 years of age or older, just follow these steps:

@mtgsigma @fireshoes Overwhelming surge will totally save it trust

2ND in challenge with prowess @fireshoes Replays are still broken but all three of my loses were to various red decks, feels like matchup is purely determined by the die role, also I feel like theres gotta be a better card than abrade for the mirror tho.

@BenFraley314 @LaughingMtg @fireshoes @BenFraley314 docs.google.com/document/d/1bz… Here's what I cobbled together, if you have any more questions on some of my scuffed thoughts feel free to ask.

@loothound @LaughingMtg @fireshoes You got any sideboarding advice or things? Deck looks really fun and I am qualified for the RC

My mother asked if I did the dishes, I yelled "dimir midrange"! She frowned and shook her head, for she knew they weren't washed. Top 8 at the @LaughingMtg Standard RCQ at LDXP this Sunday, do not play Ertai, that man is a fraud @fireshoes for clout i guess

@BenFraley314 @LaughingMtg @fireshoes Ok twitter is ass and didn't send me a notification about this. Anyways if you registered Dimir Mid for the RC, since it is well past deck registration, I'll be writing my thoughts on it, in a couple of hours

@Ginko_HS @makoobi_ @fireshoes If you want a more catchall counterspell you could run disdainful stroke which both hits the dragons and omni

@makoobi_ @fireshoes

T8d the Monday Standard Chally with this UW Robots deck I found somewhere on Twitter. I'm not planning on attending any Standard RCs, so feel free to ask any questions you have. @fireshoes MUs below:

@BenFraley314 @LaughingMtg @fireshoes Sorry for the late reply, but I think we are favored vs any control deck(jeskai+uw+domain) favored vs omni, non izzet aggro is a little sketch pre board but post gets a lot better, haven’t played against enough izzet to say and pixie id say is fairly even

@loothound @LaughingMtg @fireshoes What do you think the matchup spread looks like for this deck?

@kobelianinc @fireshoes @LaughingMtg I think the mono red/gruul matchup is pretty good for us, I'm always happy to see them when I play dimir, that one mono red I lost to had the nuts topdeck and for izzet I would like to try replacing the Ertai in the side with another Scavenger Regent.

@loothound @fireshoes @LaughingMtg How would you improve the red and prowess matchup?
