Magic: The Gathering

[Gypsy]

It's Legacy, you play w/e the eff you want. That said Enchantments isn't a great deck but it's fun to play. Thopter Sword is pretty viable.

More importantly though, Tooth and Nail is viable in Modern. So I'm running the f*** out of it. It's really, really strong aside from not having many 1 drops. Only Expedition Map in the main deck but tons of ramping 2 drops. If you cast Tooth it's the game (Emrakul + Flame-kin Zealot) but it still has other options as well.

I made the board address weaknesses. Obstinate Baloth is great loam hate and it also stares Liliana down (since aggro loam is so damn good and Raven's Crime is one of the huge keys) + general grave hate + artifact/enchant hate. I think it's pretty good vs most match-ups but I need to test more vs Jund even though that isn't the top deck anymore.

[TheRealSpiders]

Emrakul isn't fucking banned in everything yet? Thank god.

[Gypsy]

He's banned in zero formats!

That being said I think he may be the best in modern. Vintage often just comes down to taking infinite turns or dredge or MUD. So he's invalid in two decks and with infinite turns who really cares how you win...

Legacy has Eureka and Show and Tell but also has lots of Force of Will.

Modern has Into the Breach (deck name, card name is Through the Breach) (which is good but I like the Tooth deck better), Tooth and Nail and Tron (which is Tooth with 100% less green ramp and more control, both have their merits, though I just swept 2 different Tron matches with Tooth).

[Gypsy]

No one even wants to play game 2 vs Tooth anymore...3 straight times...

[TheRealSpiders]

That's cause Tooth and Nail is too troll. It's also not fun.

[Gypsy]

That's cause Tooth and Nail is too troll.

Tapped out? Okay...

And because of fetch and shock lands it's often lethal that turn.

It's also not fun.

If I hardcast anything for that much mana and it resolves I expect and deserve to win lol.

[TheRealSpiders]

Yeah, shock lands, pain lands and fetch lands were like, the best thing to happen to combo since, like, tutors straight up.

[Gypsy]

Yeah they are so good. It's funny though because it turns Blood Moon into a great board card for Legacy and Modern. Hell I run 4x Price of Progress main deck in my Legacy RDW. It's just way too good when it routinely goes for 6+ and I'm much better off main-decking them and then boarding them out if needed because more often than not they are the best card in the deck.

[Gypsy]

F*** skill intensive decks with multiple lines of play. I see y u rike auto-pilot Spiders.

You learn to appreciate auto-pilot when you have to play 13 matches of Magic in 1 day. Fucking stupid North East PTQs. Oh yeah and the meta-game over here is fucking control like nobodies business.

[Gypsy]

Control is back in standard like the plague. It's mentally taxing. Back to playing my Legacy RDW for now.

[Wyrm]

Fuck skill all together.

Put 30 bad-ass cards in a deck, add some land, and fucking pray.

[Gypsy]

Meta-game says no.

[TheRealSpiders]

Control is back in standard like the plague.

I just assume it never left, blue y u so good?

I played a blue Griffon deck for ages. Dat new Jace
