I kind of want to build Dredge to go to GP Indy with. I'm going to watch the SCG Open and the Invitational in the next two weeks first, and see if there's any Dredge/Graveyard hate running around before I lock it in.

Also,
Anyone going to GP Indy? What are you playing? Any sweet tech?

that's a great analogy dude, you should become a professional debater, you clearly have logic in the bag
>>
>>48732207
Get a load of this guy. He thinks BBE is worse for the format than best 1 drop creature ever printed.

Personally I wouldn't mind eve if most of the banlsit was lifted. There is a lot of cards of similiar powerlevel in the list that should be either left there or unbanned at the same time (Jace, BBE, stoneforge, splinter twin, dread return, summer bloom, green sun's zenith. chrome mox, punishing fire, ponder, seething song, sensei's divining top,)

Hell, I wouldn't even mind seeing cloudpost unbanned. Just print a good counterspell in the format and we are good to go.
>>
>>48732288
Why is Green Sun's Zenith banned?
>>
>>48732324
Because it's the best creature tutor in the game. Most utility creatures you want to see are green anyway.
>>
>>48732220
Wut?
>>
>>48732324
>On turn one, this can give the acceleration of a Llanowar Elves by getting a Dryad Arbor. On later turns, it can get a large creature or a one-of "toolbox" creature such as Gaddock Teeg. While this is interesting, it is also too efficient. If one intends to build a deck that has turn-one accelerants, Green Sun's Zenith is a great choice. If one wants to more access to utility green creatures, Green Sun's Zenith is a great choice. If one wants to more reliably get a large green creature, such as a Primeval Titan, onto the battlefield, Green Sun's Zenith is a great choice. However, this ends up with fewer different decks being played in practice, as Green Sun's Zenith is such a good choice that there are fewer green decks that do anything else. The DCI hopes that banning Green Sun's Zenith increases diversity among Modern green decks.

>>48732369
>However, this ends up with fewer different decks being played in practice

This shows why WotC logic is so flawed. They said same kind of shit when splitner twin was banned, as if it was the reason why other decks can't compete. GSZ allows a lot of different builds since it's so versatile. You can use it variety of different decks in variety of different ways. It also allows for playing extra 4 copies of single card, so you can build around one card with it around. This is seen in legacy with enchantress with argothian enchantress and Nic Fit with veteran explorer.
>>
It's at Sorcery speed & only hits green creatures ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
>>
>>48732437
traverse puts the card into your HAND, not the battlefield.

you can have cards that search your library and put them into your hand, and you can have cards that put things onto the battlefield, combining them BOTH is a problem. There is a reason why Tinker is banned in legacy.
>>
>>48732680
Just so you know, there's basically no difference between Green Sun and Traverse when you have delirium. The only real difference is with Dryad Arbor.
>>
>>48732680
It's X+G to get an X cost creature or G to get any creature then pay X to cast it. Unless your opponent is running creature specific counter spells for some reason it doesn't really matter. Having to turn on deliruim is the main difference.
>>
>>48732680
It's the same thing. You have to pay for the creatures with gsz as well
>>
>>48732715
Delirium is so easy to turn on. Run Tarfire or something as a two of if it's an issue
>>
>>48732735
>Run a bad card so that your other cards are better
No that's not really how good deckbuilding works.
>>
>>48732761
It's a fifth bolt. It's not going to ruin the precious deck. Jund does it all the time with that or seal of fire. For quite some time we've been powering delirium+ for goyf

Well, it isn't issue as long as those 2 bad cards combined wins the game. But when you play 2 bad cards to play mediocre effect.... We have a problem.

Or can anyone say Splinter twin or Deceiver exarch is good alone?
>>
>>48732715
Traverse gives your opponent info, though. If you have countermagic up and you see your opponent cast GSZ for 4, you don't know what it is until its too late, you have to counter it "blind". With traverse, you both see what creature it is, then as it is cast, the option is there to decide whether the creature is worth countering or not. GSZ doesn't give you that info.

Always run 6 copies of Thoughtseize. And 4 Scullers.

>>48733341
Some suggestions are:
Kataki in the side for affinity
An Anguished Unmaking mainboard for planeswalkers
Get rid of Windbrisk Heights since your curve is so low
Throw in a Ghost Quarter, Vault of the Archangel, and a couple Isolated Chapels to make up for it
>>
>>48733341
looks like a standards tokens deck. Tokens get a new card to play with in Westvale Abbey. Give it a try.
>>
>>48733341
Get rid of Promise of Bunrei. Its not as good as you'd think. Drop a Sorin and add 2 Gideon or Elspeth, Knight-Errant. You don't really need more than 1 Swamp since the deck wants to have hand disruption T1 and Spectral T3 and that's very achievable with the fetches/shocks. Speaking of, you should run 4 Inquisition and please drop the Go for the Throats and add in a single of Murderous Cut and maybe a Smother or Dismember instead
>>
>>48733341
>>48733428
Additionally Timely Reinforcements can be very good when you aren't beatdown

Hey Deck advice, modifying my deck and I'm trying to pick between some cards.

The deck is Golgari, big emphasis on Scavenge, every creature has scavenge except Corpsejack Menace.

Problem: i just got Vulturous Zombie 5 mana, 3/3 flying, and gets +1 when an opponent creature dies. benefits is it has flying and grows.

Im wondering wether i should put it in my deck instead of Deadbridge Goliath, 4 mana, 5/5 with scavenge for 6 mana.

Its only ever existed as a cheap blocker to die so i can scavenge him onto something with double counters, suicide bomber with good stats.

So which should i take?
>>
>>48734110
Since I'm here might as well ask this

Increasing savagery 4mana, target creature gets 5 +1/+1 Counters, flashback for 7 mana and 10 +1/+1 Counters.

OR

Curse of Predation - Enchantment: Enchant player, whenever a creature attacks enchanted player put a +1/+1 counter on it.

1. is great for buffing a single creaure, especially if i have a corpsejack menace out, but only buffs a single creature and its easy to cast murder (safe from doom blade cause black/green creatures)

2. however this one has more long term investment, and buffs any number of creatures i make attack, but only +1/+1 per turn
>>
Basic Lands or lands that come out tapped and give one of two mana /tg/?
>>
>>48734262
Go for shocks pain lands or fast lands
>>
>>48734212

Which top tier deck has the easiest to build "budget" version that I can slowly upgrade towards.

And do I really need fetches to be truly competitive? Would I be fine at my LGS without them?
>>
>>48734290
Why did you address me?

maybe someone else can help, honest, I'm of no use to you, i play casual as shit
>>
>>48730573
Stoneforge and Deathrite.
Let me play Deathblade in Modern, Jitte is the most powerful card in the deck and it's still banned anyway.
>>
>>48730624
I had $800 worth of points for 11 months without a single bite (wanted shocklands, fetches and lillys) until I accepted an MP german Scrubland.
>>
>>48733692
Bolt is perfectly balanced and didn't need to be changed.
>>
>>48734290
Delver is pretty easy to get started and to upgrade over time, so I'd say start there if you like that kind of deck.

The thing about fetch lands is that they make multi-color decks much less of a pain to build and they provide the essential mana fixing you'll need to make your deck a well-functioning machine. If you don't include fetches, you leave your mana available up to chance.
>>
>>48734290
Personally would say goblin without guides, but red burn is probably not too bad either, which can be upgraded slowly to naya. And yes, in monocolor decks fetches are a must. Without them you are building inferior manabase so you might as well buy proper cards.
>>
>>48729720
I honestly see Infect and Dredge being the decks to beat in the coming months.

Boardwipes are going to find their way into more sideboards. But dredge needs specific hate.
>>
>>48732706
Yes there is

Traverse puts the creature into your hand,

Green sun's puts it directly onto the battlefield
>>
>>48734290
Mono red burn is the most efficient for its budget.

>>
>>48734540
Both are good. One is better for goyf, the other is useful for say, elves... or tooth and nail.
>>
>>48735175
There's never a reason to run Traverse over GSZ.
>>
>>48735156
I disagree on it being broken. Dredge still folds to same hate cards as ever, but the difference in modern compared to legacy is the fact DRS is not legal.... Which makes it's 1st game so much better. Soooooo..... Unban DRS hype and while you are at it, unban everything else that's not supposed to be there.

Can you imagine those fat cucks trying to talk about Dredge with sheer terror in their eyes? Just the raw fear of being knifed by Maro for mentioning Dredge on stream would be golden.

So what does Mardu need. I'm getting pretty good results online and within my playgroup. It's honestly not a bad deck with pretty decent match ups.

How the hell did this happen. Format is full of ridiculous synergy decks that fold by hate cards and somehow all those the most powerful hate cards are white. Kor firewalker, RiP, stony silence, Ethersworn canoni.... well something like it. So many cards that won't allow certain decks to play.

Nope. They're an emotionless, unthinking enemy that seems to exist only to destroy. Then right at the end, Wizards wants to retcon the entire thing and inject some creation bullshit when absolutely nothing that any Eldrazi has done prior to this has hinted at it. Back Zendikar, Emrakul was just the bitch queen of destroying shit. Gideon even had a run-in with her, and couldn't come up with a single idea for how to face something like that.

Anything letting you pick stuff from your library to put on the battlefield facilitates toolbox decks. That's why Pod was banned. Even Eldritch Evolution is a bit suspicious but is a bit too slow to be broken, but I'm sure someone will try.

I like that they at least print new stuff like Evolution and Traverse when they ban old toolbox cards. I'm definitly going to make an Eldritch Evolution deck, but I doubt the card is strong enough to warrant a ban. It will need some shit like an Eternal Witness that brings it back from exile.

>>
>>48740379
I know it's far from reliable, but theoretically it allows for you to pull a massive creature out of nowhere and depending on what you can drop for an effective 9ish mana it might be worth keeping a silver bullet or two around. I imagine in any situation you did more than 6 damage with LoR you're already so far out ahead the game is in the bag, but it is possible to have a method for summoning emrakul so long as I have a dark petition in hand.

>>48740321
Wurmcoil seems like a very strong choice since even trample damage would likely allow it to get in unharmed, and yeah I guess some of the eldrazi options are actually worth looking into.
>>
>>48740452
There are much easier ways to cheat fatties on to play
>>
>>48740452
>silver bullet
>>
>>48740491
Easier yes, but I'm just looking for ways to exploit LoR to his fullest. In an ideal world he could hit the board turn 3 and then swing 4 and even without petition in hand it could mean dumping a 6 colorless mana creature for free, dark petition just allows a little more flexibility.

>>48740494

>>48740321
Wurmcoil is run in Tron because of it gets destroyed you get two 3/3 Wurm tokens, one with Deathtouch and one with lifelink. A turn 3 Wurmcoil is nothing to fart at.
>>
>>48739286
Decks in legacy are much more powerful in proportion to Legacy dredge than the decks in modern are in proportion to the modern version. That combined with the fact that Legacy is blue centric and has access to the best cantrips in all of Magic means finding your grave hate is so much more easier than in modern, and a lot of decks in legacy happen to run incidental grave hate mainboard in the form of DRS. Modern lacks all of this. So there's actually a good chance that Dredge could do well in Modern.
>>
>>48740599
I for one think kraken decks are fun. I don't have any suggestions, but I don't see how you don't just fold to enchantment removal. Also aggro decks probably fuck you up.
>>
>>48740786
no, no there isn't. all the grave hate that is available in legacy is available for modern. just jam 4x any grave hate in the side, and boom, good luck casting that troll. it's also pretty obvious you don't know why dredge is so powerful in legacy. wihtout consistent ichorid /nether shadow beats it is way to easy to hate out. shit most people were running grave hate for living end anyway

plus if dredge gets too uppity they'll just ban GGT again
>>
>>48740852
>all the grave hate that is available in legacy is available for modern
Apart from Deathrite Shaman, probably the most powerful one of all.
>>
>>48740852
>good luck casting that troll

When the fuck have you EVER casted troll?
>>
>>48740803
Thanks for actually giving advice. Aggro surprisingly doesn't do incredibly well against the deck as is. The birds are fairly consistent chumps and the spellskites have some pretty fat asses, so unless it's a fish deck or some other evasion-heavy deck it does alright. Enchantment removal is an issue, hence the spellskites and judge's familiars, but I'm trying to keep the creature count high enough for a consistent turn 5. That's my real issue.

I'm wondering if there are any proliferate effects worth including to lower the kill turn or creature-based protections for quest that can keep it going, but so far I haven't seen anything really worth it.

Yes, but the means of finding them are nonexistent. In legacy you can afford to run a few copies of grave hate and just find them through cantrips. it's not the same.

>just jam 4x any grave hate in the side
Sure, you could do that but it's not free: you lose percentage points in other matchups. And if they are packing that much hate, then that's just something you'll have to accept.

> it's also pretty obvious you don't know why dredge is so powerful in legacy.
I played dredge in legacy so I do know why dredge is powerful. Also,

>why dredge is so powerful in legacy
No. It has a really good game 1 percentage, but it's not anywhere near as powerful as compared to what the rest of the format is doing. The deck is actually rather fair.

I'm not saying the deck is immune to hate, but the idea that the deck is bad because grave hate exists is questionable.

>Sure, you could do that but it's not free: you lose percentage points in other matchups. And if they are packing that much hate, then that's just something you'll have to accept.

... while dredge does have a much better G1 MU then G2 or G3, it is very much known as on of the most broken and unfair archetypes in the entire game. Not just format. Of Magic. It is completely degenerate and I drink every eldrazi players tears because of it

The only time Dredge is fair is when it's Vintage, since it's one of the Top 5. And that's why I love it.

>>48737887
I do. Ulamog and Kozilek were gud boys dey dindu nuffin wrong

>>48741109
In modern, yes. There's no good cantrips. You just have to mull in order to find it. Or until you draw it.
>>48741132
I don't havs a problem with a DRS, though I have lost games to it before.

>>48741154
>The deck is actually rather fair.
I should've specified to prevent all of this. I meant compared to other combo decks. Alot of decks can race it.

>>48741209
>Wanna know what the legacy plan to deal with dredge is? mulligan till you get the hate cause you sided in enough grave hate to do that
Sure, that's the primary plan. But the fact that you can also cantrip to find your grave hate further increases your chance of finding it.

>that's why it's called a fucking sideboard
No shit?

>it is very much known as on of the most broken and unfair archetypes in the entire game.
Yeah, but the thing is, other decks are doing more broken and unfair shit than what dredge is doing right now, both in Legacy and in Vintage. And while it's true that most decks simply can't beat dredge without some form of hate, there's still tons of decks than can simply race them.

name one archetype that warps the meta as hard as dredge. merely by existing it force players to devote at least 4 sideboard slots to beat it. and tha'ts in eternal formats where dredge is much stronger.

They certainly have a higher chance of finding it with cantrips.

>name one archetype that warps the meta as hard as dredge.

ftfy. Also, probably Miracles atm, though that may have to do with the amount of play it sees as opposed to its power level.

Can someone explain to me the difference between a combo deck, and a deck with a combo engine? I have read articles where people will say something along the lines as Elves is a Aggro with a combo engine, or Affinity is Aggro with a combo engine, but Twin Exarch was a legit combo deck.

Combo engine is just another way of describing powerful synergy. True combos like Twin will win the game on the spot.

Polukranos
Grasp of Darkness
>>
>>48747096
So would Elves and Storm be combo decks or decks with combo engines, since they CAN win the match on the spot, but can fizzle out?

It would be a weird as fuck deck for sure

I think the best way to make it (it would still likely be a terrible deck mind you) would be to ramp slightly with heirarch or whatever, dump some cards in the grave via thoughtscour or something play a reasonably sized creature. Play this enchantment. Then on your upkeep double become immense on one creature and maybe a mutagenic growth to win.

That's my best idea
>>
>>48747400
I know but I don't play EDH. I only play Modern and my gf wanted to get into Magic and she really liked this card and asked me to build a deck for her. So far I played with the thought

Some cards I've been pondering so far include:


Mayael's Aria
Collected Company
Wild Nacatl
Birds of Paradise
Woolly Thoctar
Lightning Bolt
Advent of the Wurm
Atarka's Command
Dromoka's Command
Fleecemane Lion
Kitchen Finks
Loxodon Smiter
Unflinching Courage
Voice of Resurgence
Watchwolf
Arlinn Kord
Bloodbraid Elf
Huntmaster of the Fells
Ulrich of the Krallenhorde
Rancor
Avatar of the Resolute
Awakening Zone
Bow of Nylea
Increasing Savagery
Kalonian Hydra
Nissa, Voice of Zendikar
Primordial Hydra
Scute Mob
Thragtusk
Thrun, the Last Troll
Woodland Wanderer
Goblin Guide
Path to Exile
Lightning Helix
Eternal Witness
Archangel of Thune
Qasali Pridemage

Just a bunch of cards but nothing concrete.

Whats a deck that plays like ad nauseam? Preferably one that is tier 3 or better.
>>
>>48747235
They can win on the spot comboing off, but they don't always win even if their combo goes off unimpeded, hence it is not a combo deck.

If viscera seer, Melira, and murderous redcap are on the field unimpeded, you win Always.
>>
>>48747545
Hydra tribal with Scute Mob, Birds, Arlinn Kord, Nissa, and Chord of Calling. Maybe the naya colored Commands and some bolts/helixes.

Throw in the Archangel of Thune/Spikefeeder combo for fun.

It has to produce a state that is likely unbeatable. Melira, finks, sac outlet is still a combo as well.

MORE CARDS FOR ELVES RIGHT NOW
>>
>>48740852
Modern is a format that dredge is likely to excel in, just by looking at other decks like it that do well. It's basically affinity only with a better game 1 win percentage but with less resilience to hate. The thing is if dredge becomes popular it will be yet another deck that requires specific sideboard answers to beat, like affinity and burn. You can't pack hate for all of them in sufficient quantities. The format already felt like a lottery as it is and now its going to be even more so.

Plus, dredge sideboards always pack at least 6 copies of anti hate to bring in, for me its natures claim on the draw and seize on the play. Even if your opponents packed hate for you that day you're still more likely to draw anti hate than they are to draw hate. Tl;DNR deck is good, just because opponents can pack 4x hate doesnt mean they should or that dredge can't beat that guy.

Is UR delver a decent budget, easily upgradeable deck to get into modern with?

I'd like to play at FNM but ease my way into the format, I don't mind losing a few games as I slowly get the cards I need to make it a good deck
>>
>>48750500
Its ok as a budget start, but there are decks that shit all over it. Delver doesn't really have what it takes to be a top contender in modern, at least right now.
>>
>>48750772
You're either aggro or something that races aggro with disruption
>>
>>48750772
Do you have any advice in that area? I've heard that monored Burn is a good budget start into the format, but I'm not sure if that's the kind of deck I'd enjoy playing
>>
>>48750500
I wouldn't advice for it. I mean what is the direction you will go with it as nonbudget? Do you have money to drop in fetches? Do you have money to drop in snapcasters? Are you going to build grixis or UWR after? Do you think mana leak is a good card?

I mean you can probably win few games with relatively budget UR delver, but it's quite fucking expensive deck if going for optimal build, which I'm not sure you should do as it runs blue. And yes, I'm going to call blue being fucking worst color you want to be in modern.

My advice is just go for red aggro, burn or goblin or something like that. Probably better choice.
>>
>>48750772

That pauper delver is where it's at tho

The deck makes perfect sense you nigger. The superfriends/shitdecks guy is retarded down to the ground, but this one is completely fine. And this is being said by the guy who's trying to make the superfriend deck a meme.

Sideboard him, hes worse than swiftspear because hes not swiftspear. Hes there to hose lifegain because hes huge and gives you cards.
>>
>>48744331
graffdiggers, leyline and kalitas are better m8.
>>
>>48750500
Play titistorm. Its cheap as fuck and does work compared to delver. You dont care that you lack 1 mana cantrips because youre too busy double casting every manamorph and flipping huge titi's. It goes wide and just works.
>>
Taking this shit to a GP to play side events, any suggestions/comments would be great. Heavily based on Peter Ingram's list but having 3 AV mainboard (which replaces the v-clique, 1 Electrolyze, and 1 remand) and different sideboard.

Origins did wonders for elves, lots of nice things added in that set.
Wish bfz/ogw had elves in it... I only remember one elf in that set and imo Beastcaller Savant doesn't cut the mustard. Hopefully the next plane has elves and goblins because zendikar kinda shit the bed for tribal (only sweet goblin card was GDD and it's not a tribal card at all)

I like Eldritch Evolution elves personally.

Been making a deck for casual play. Currently have this

http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/dead-already/

Thought for improving?

Grave crawlers are used for sacrifice fodder while grave pact and P.Obliterator force my opponent to constantly sacrifice his creatures, buried alive to get my big creatures in the graveyard or a burst of grave crawlers, culling the weak to get everything out fast, recurring nightmare and victimize to summon large creatures cheap. Everything else is to make more zombies and make zombies stronger with the trump combination being Army of the damned with a coat of arms.
>>
>>48752785
Obliterator is 4 mana for a 5/5 unblockable that prevents your opponent from attacking while it's untapped.
>>
>>48752785
>(competitive discussion)
1. Wrong thread.

2. 22 lands +fuckhuge CMC spells = the deck is unplayable.
>>
>>48752809
>73% of the cards are 3 mana or below
>16 mana worth of Culling the weak
>>
>>48752785
You used cards that aren't even Modern legal and you still managed to make your deck shit.
>>
>>48752785
Wrong thread but the deck is fine. I would find a draw for life card instead of using necromancers stockpile
>>
I'm playing DnT/hatebear. With all the red based removal in the format would it be a bad idea to run Burrenton Forge-Tender in the main. I tend to side it in alot.
>>
>>48752876
Selfless Spirit seems like a better card for mainbord.
