I fucking love Bridge from Below. I'd be willing to give up consistency for the added pressure in dredge, although it all depends on the metagame. I may take you up on that offer, I'll see if I can figure out Cockatrice and get the rust out of the gears. First I have to see how much the formats have changed, I fear that things are going to be somewhat different from what I remember.
You really, really don't like him, dare I say you've found a nemesis?
Cockatrice is all manual so it's easy to figure. The only thing you really can't do is stuff like the Wishes.
Standard is variable right now. Top decks are Valakut and UB Control. It's a good idea when playing matches on cockatrice or at actual tourns to prepare a board for both. I'm not even a huge board guy but it seems really important right now.
The Legacy deck I'm using has a 2 card win condition and both are 5 cent cards. Surprise factor runs rampant. Once the decks are known to both players the next two games are very different and mind games run high. It's pretty fun and after g1 more interactive.
Let theme hate as long as they fear !!! DUUUH :minkoff:
Damn it. That's the second time I missed the rep button, and hit the thanks.
I need my reading glasses. :wacko:
I hate him, but I don't fear him. Or anything else really. Except snakes. Hate snakes. But back on topic, his theory, smashed.
I have a rubbish casual deck I want to test. Is anyone down?
I'll say again: simmer down children. Hating someone on the internet is like pissing into an ocean of piss.
Now, I'm going to see if I can make some decks before I give up on this game... again.
Just won a Legacy match w/ Sen Triplets saving my ass. Hilarious.
Yeah it was with that deck I mentioned earlier. So he had boarded in Tormod's Crypt among other things. I'd boarded in 9 cards myself including Sen Triplets.
Iirc this is what I boarded in...
Sen Triplets
Peacekeeper
Qasali Pridemage
Misdirection
Kataki, War's Wage
2x Rushing River
2x Abeyance
Was a weird game. I whiffed on a Cabal Therapy then later flashed it with a Cephalid. He got somewhat land screwed for a bit. I ended up hardcasting Karmic Guide to start swinging him down. He started to establish better board position but tapped out so I tutored for the Triplets and cast them next turn. He conceded because he couldn't remove them and I would just combo next turn for the game and he couldn't shoot off his Crypts.
You said you were playing Dredge? What was he playing?
Well it's Dredge type but w/o any cards with Dredge. He was running some black/green/blue weird control shit. I think there was blue anyway.
So I play some vintage games with a guy and I'm trying out some new fangled vintage shit, top decks really. I lose the first 2 matches 2-0 then I switch to and old ass control deck and win 2-1. I think the newest cards in it are Mirrodin block. Gimme some turn 1 Sundering Titan + Sphere of Resistance + a Strip Mine boo yah.
i play mtg frequently, currently play fnm( friday night magic) and in release/prerelease tournaments regularly. i was wondering if you could give me more details on this cockatrice thing. it looks interesting but idk much about it even after reading the site. btw i run a black deck w/4 phyrexian obliterators one of each, sword of feast and famine, sword of body and mind and sword of war and peace. as well as batterskull and spellskite. it is a really fun deck.
I'm super happy jace and stoneforge got banned too lol. lets me do better w/the obliterator deck. I run a lux cannon deck too it is quite fun, destroying all of your permanents is a real blast.
Imho Lux Cannon is too slow. Even w/ Surge Node. And yeah Black is good. UB Control, MB Control, MB Aggro, BR Aggro are all viable right now. Phyrexian Obliterator + Lashwrithe goooo.
Cockatrice is fairly simple. What do you need to know?
What the fuck. Lashwrithe, so good.
Yeah. Phyrexian Obliterator or Abyssal Persecutor + Lashwrithe is big trollin'.
I feel like got trolled. It's so good.
I just won a Legacy match 2-0. Hivemind vs Dredge though so kind of unfair...
Behind the scenes...
Guy: So damn dudes, control is for pussies, but what can we do about it?
Guy 2: Oh I know, let's reprint Goblin Grenade, Grim Lavamancer and Incinerate.
Guy 3: While we are at it let's make the new Chandra fork!
Guy: Excellent ideas guys. This'll show those blue playing bastards.
Yeah top decks will be some form of RDW or Goblins, UW Control and UB Control. I like how many options UW Control has right now.
Shameless bump, but I need to know how likely you guys are gonna kick my ass in MTG.
HOLY FUCKING SHIT YOU GUYS ACTUALLY HAVE AN MTG THREAD! MUST POST ON IT BEFORE IT DIES!
So, uh... M12 is out, along with Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012. How did everyone do in there pre-release tourneys/booster drives or whatevah? Anyone got a new Standard deck idea/list that they want to share?
Personally, I keep winning with my G/B Infect deck simply because no one sideboard's against Infect, even though it is as easy as Melira, Sylvok Outcast. Glistener Elf + Putrefax FTW.
Oh, and I use LackeyCCG instead. Same name.
I wish I had the cash to buy Dules of the Planeswalkers 2012. T_T Do you have the first one? If so what console? Lol.
PM me if you wanna talk about it lol.=P
Nah, I was going to get it for PC, but then I realized that they were probably going to make a new game for each core set, thus out dating the game that I had just purchased. I was still greatly tempted to buy it though. So close...
Assuming there was no sarcasm, It's always nice to meet someone who plays the game.
Anyways, since I have almost no money but still want to remain competitive, I've been thinking about making a Mono White Quest. Because even Squadron Hawk can own face if it's equipped with Argentum Armor. The only problem is that I can't use it after September...
This habit is getting way to expensive. I'll probably go back to mainly playing with LackeyCCG sometime soon.
i havent been keepin up with the magic game lately but i do have duels of the planeswalkers 2012. this game is so much better than the first. you can actually customise the whole deck and unlock so many more cards. love the different game types also. i have the game for the 360 if anyone wants to friend me and play magic cool.
