Epser Narset but with 4 Gideon's and 1 Narset instead of actually trying to make Narset a centerpiece of the deck. I just wanna play Blue Abzan

You're an idiot. Burn all but disappeared. Junk is only now resurging and jund is hardly a gatekeeper for decks like infect and kiln fiend. Did you literally just begin playing modern?

>What do you guys think is the best deck in Modern right now?
I don't know, and don't really care.
>What do you want to build right now?
Some version of taxes that doesn't use Eldrazi.
>What deck will get the next ban? It could be literally anything cause God only knows how wizards decides on bans.
No changes.

>What are you playing and hating?
Affinity, Tron.
Hating nothing really.
>Also wanted to add that the term whatcha is strictly for autistic/v/ neckbeards who play video games instead of having sex with beautiful women on Friday night.
Frankly I'm more offended by the assumption I go to /v/.

Is aristocrats a decent deck or nah?

>>51400099
Jund is low key tier 2 right now.

Also Narset isn't actually a centerpiece of the esper deck. It gets better when you draw her, but you don't actually NEED to draw her for the deck to work.

>>51400003
>What do you guys think is the best deck in Modern right now?
Jund, only because it is ValueTown.dec
>What do you want to build right now?
Once I get the last 7 cards I need for Affinity? GB Rock. With Fatal Push and Grim Flayer I feel that there isn't much need for Red or White anymore. Plus Treetop Village is a monkey, and that is bananas
>What deck will get the next ban? It could be literally anything cause God only knows how wizards decides on bans
I'm not gonna speculate on bans for at least another week. Wait for another GP or something so we can get a good look at how the Meta is adapting.
>What are you playing and hating?
Playing Burn and Affinity, because I'm a fat fucking faggot who likes to eat and/or drink between matches
Hating Dredge and Titanshift because beating them while playing burn is really hard.

>>51400283

not that guy but naya burn is still very popular on mtgo and is a usually a formidable tier 1
perhaps you're thinking of a different burn deck

>>51400449

"What is your point?"

>>51400416
Abzan Aristocrats that kills with Blood Artist/Zulaport Cutthroat triggers hence the name Gravestorm, but also can beat down with its weenies. Chord of Calling is of course an automatic include, letting the deck run a toolbox package, and Return to the Ranks is generally a win when it resolves. Abzan Ascendancy is a powerhouse too in the deck. It can goldfish wins around the same speed normal Storm can, but it's far more resilient to aggro.

with the way the people who shill for the deck talk about it, along with it always being called Esper Narset or Esper Transcendent, makes it sound like she's the most important part

it doesn't seem like more than 1 or 2 are really needed and Gideon, Ally is dumb enough on his own

>>51400454

>not knowing anything about Magic or Modern

Do yourself a favor and watch a couple months of Starcitygames and Grand Prix coverage, read daily strategy articles from places like the aforementioned SCG, ChannelFireball, Modern Nexus (even if it's trash), TCGPlayer, MTGGoldfish, Wizards of the Coast, etc. Talk to regular players at your local shop. Learn the game first before you light your money on fire.

I hope you're not just rusing right now and I typed all that for nothing

>>51400809
So you don't play. Got it.
They banned probe entirely because of decks like kiln fiend, suicide zoo and infect. They banned GGT to nerf dredge. Are you still with me champ?

>tron is a control deck
Finally someone who understands.

What's the best way to play MtG (including Modern) online for free? Is Cockatrice still around?

>>51400815
The guy said he had 140 dollars, guy says he can afford 1/39th of a tarmogoyf deck before the mana base, what other cards are you going to add to make it 6000 dollars and call it a tarmogoyf deck?

>>51400507
>>51400591
I think it would be funny if everyone at the store started describing the cost of anything in terms of the current price of Tarmogoyf. It would be as stupid as expressing the cost of anything in Bitcoin.

>Someone opens a $40 foil
>Hey, nice 0.25 Tarmogoyf

>$100 Sealed GP
>I don't feel like spending 0.65 of a Tarmogoyf of and a whole Tarmogoyf to travel to a GP this weekend.

I'm just making up the numbers.

Because then someone is going to start expressing things in the form of a Tundra or Black Lotus, then I can have a shitfest about how their new Magic currency can go fuck itself.

You need to actually play the deck to understand. It's called esper narset because it's the only deck where she is run. The deck doesn't need her but as I said you do prefer to see her every game. Rebouding souls, esper charm or fatal push is just stupid value you're missing out on if you run her as a singleton.

We were referring to the all in decks

>>51400947
>tfw people are so poor, tarmogoyf has a mythical price status
Kek

>>51400968
Because it's not an interesting deck. It's just another "if I get a godhand the game is over on turn 2, otherwise I flounder and die" meme deck that tries to cheese out free wins.

>>51400925

>What do you guys think is the best deck in Modern right now?
Goblins:^)

>What do you want to build right now?

Something fun and interactive, doesn't have to
be tier 1 would appreciate suggestions.

>What deck will get the next ban? It could be literally anything cause God only knows how wizards decides on bans.
Deck? More like cards. They'll probably ban Mutagenic and Surgical next.

>What are you playing and hating?
Playin: U/R prowess and G/W Tron.
Hatin: drawing 5+ lands in a row.

>>51400003
>What do you guys think is the best deck in Modern right now?
I dunno. There's no clear winner.

>What do you want to build right now?
Atm, I don't want to build anything I haven't already.

>What deck will get the next ban?
How the fuck should I know?

>What are you playing and hating?
I'm playing anything tiered. The only deck I hate is Bogles. It's not a great deck, but it fucks me up on occasion. If you're going to beat me, at least beat me with something actually good.

>>51400968
I don't hate it, it's just a less consistent more explosive grishoalbrand deck that people will meme around with for a while like they do with all Jank combos. I was very happy to see coco become widely played, I like the card and welcomed the decks cause they bring a lot to the format, the new b and e deck is just a shitty unfun oops I win deck

>>51400947
I might start doing this.

>>51401004
I would 100% recommend playing kiki chord, it is both fun and interactive, no matter what people tell you. You can tune it to your meta perfectly, and it's really fun. Honestly the most fun I have ever had playing modern. I really hope you ask me for a deck list cause I would like to provide it.

>>51401047
>CoCo decks bring a lot to the format
I disagree, CoCo decks are the same kind of goodstuff cancer decks that everyone here loves to hate but for some reason they get a free pass because they're tribal

>>51401004
>surgical ban
>mutagenic ban
The only busted phyrexian cards were probe and pod, I don't know why people think the other ones are even remotely worth banning.

>>51401088
>I really hope you ask me for a deck list cause I would like to provide it.
just post your list if you want to nigga what the fuck

>>51401098
I don't think they're broken, but wizards said themselves that Phyrrexian mana was a mistake.

So those are my typed cards for next banning since they're basically free.

>>51401132
if they ban extraction i'm leaving modern

>>51401132
>wizards said themselves that Phyrrexian mana was a mistake
Do you know specifically who said that?

>>51401235
Maro

>>51401160
There's still Extripate.

I really don't think there's anything unreasable with demanding players pay mana for Surgical Extraction. The bullshit around Phyrexian Mana is the fact that there are actually mana-free spells. There's nothing wrong with cards like Dismember, which is probably the only playable card that requires mana.

Okay, heres the basic list, I'mean going to leave out the sodeboard and creature tool box package, if you tell me your meta I'll make suggestions as to what I would add. Also I should start out by saying I don't like nahiri in the deck, I'll just be honest I don't think she works, the deck does fine without her, and I tried her, but I almost always would have rather had that card I cut for her in almost every game, she just doesn't cut it for me, and I assume people will disagree but whatever.
Creature
4x Birds of Paradise, 100% necessary, great card, always want to see it, even add a hierarch or 2 if you see fit. Fixes mana, ramps, you want 4.
1x Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker I feel 1 is the correct number, drawing 2 just loses the game, and honestly, you almost never want to draw him some games, and we can always pull him out with chord
1x Qasali Pridemage or receive sage, just got to have 1 main, I don't think it's correct to ever not run at least the 1
4x Restoration Angel, you can run less, I always find they provide me tremendous value
1x Spellskite, protects the combo, and won't be as good with the nerfs, but will still be good, he's just a good card, have 1
1x scavenging ooze, not as essential as spells kite or pride mage at times, but when he's good, he's really good
3x Voice of Resurgence, great card, run 3 at least in my opinion, he comes in and leaves an impact, just always good
3x Wall of Omens can have less of course but slows down ground swinging decks, 2 of them can literally buyou you 5 turns in some matchups
3x Wall of Roots can have less if course, but I like to have the mana, cause sometimes cording for big stuff early wins the game, or combing out as fast as you can with all the mana they provide.
Continued

>>51401409
Land
1x Fire-Lit Thicket
2x Forest
1x horizon xanopy
1x Ghost Quarter
1x Mountain
1x Overgrown Tomb
1x Plains
1x Razorverge Thicket
1x Rugged Prairie
1x Sacred Foundry
2x Stomping Ground
1x Temple Garden
4x Windswept Heath
4x Wooded Foothills

That's my mana base, it's a little more red and can be fine tuned to whatever you end up with
Instant
4x Chord of Calling
4x Path to Exile just essential, both these cards are pretty vital to the deck, never go less than 4 chord main board, I like 4 paths personally, but you can go less, I have but I always go back.

>>51401297

Don't trust gold fish's % right now, they removed the decks that had banned cards from their database but kept other decks from those times in it, until they get replaced with more recent results they're all skewed.

I want to cheat out big creatures. What's the best deck to do that?

Tooth and nail? Reanimator? Polymorph? New expertise fuse meme?

Alright guys, it's time to make " The Walking Eggs " a thing. I'm shit at deckbuilding but the aim would be Eggs, get rid of the Faith's reward package, replace it with Pia's revolution, 4 copies of ironworks, and a walking ballista as our wincon, hence the name.

What would the list look like?

Is there an easy way I can sell my Infect shit and get in on that big green titan cock? Been playing it a lot online and really digging it and I don't need Inkmoths/Nobles anymore, but I don't know a good way to sell the stuff without losing a lot of money. Ebay seems like a huge hassle which is why I want to avoid it.

>>51401727
If you actually want to attack with fatties tooth and nail. Grishoalbrand for winning by drawing your entire deck.

>>51401727
No, no, no and no.

Ebay is literally the only way to get your money for your cards. 100% the only fucking way besides trading. Takes time and patience, but it is what it is.

>>51401760
I have a RUG scapeshift list, anon. It's roughly the same. You'd still need the Prime Titties and replace the blue cards with things like Explore/Farseek ( which I have ) and replace some mana base.

Want to trade? ;)

>>51401834
Post what you have and I'll think about it but probably, yeah. Seems like an easy way to do stuff.
I'd keep most of my manabase, just the Foothills and Heaths, you can have the misty, inkmoths, all that jazz. Skite's in the board and I'll throw in the random stuff I use for various builds, extra distortion strikes and the like

Bloomless titan is like 2 percent of the meta now and rising, can I try running it again?

>>51401962
I tried it again a few months back and the new one is garbage.

>>51401905
I'd rather you give your fetches also. The RUG version contains pricy fetches, like Misty, so yeah, you don't really lose value. You may even gain value since snapcaster is at its lowest right now.

>>51401983
I feel like this is a losing prospect for you. Should post list so I can evaluate it but I'm still interested

>>51401972
Is it really that bad? I feel like taking bloom away just slows it down a bit but doesn't hurt the consistency too bad, is it really that slow or does it affect something else?

>>51402029
Well, I don't really know. I need to think about it. Thing is that I picked the wrong deck. Scapeshift is not that fun to me anymore. I like aggro decks or decks that are very fast, so by definition, scapeshift decks are a mistake.

>>51402029

Have you ever played Scapeshift before? Anticipate is a core spot, that can be replaced with Telling Time, since DTT/Cruise got banned. Also pyroclasm is a perfectly legit choice. Infect and aggro decks are a problem, so those are necessary. You could argue Anger is better, but it's RR, which is painful to do in our deck.

How does it feel to be a pleb anon?

hey fags, I have some cards I want to sell to my LGC and I've never done that before so I don't really know how to go about it. Any advice? The cards are in good condition (near-mint, I think, I don't see any damage at all) and in sleeves and a deckbox, and the priciest one I found is a copy of Doubling Season which is apparently worth like $50+. Now I don't really play MtG that much, so I have no interest in keeping them, but I did some googling for prices so I have a rough idea of what they go for player-to-player, but shipping cards properly sucks and I'm afraid the shop owner will try and gyp me. (I also have a couple cards worth like $5-10 each which I'm not too worried about, it's Doubling Season that I'm most worried about).

How should I go about haggling with the guy? Is it even worth trying, or should I look into selling them online? Anything else I should know before going in there tomorrow?

>>51403000
>I'm so elite I've never played against someone who doesn't understand every fucking card ever printed.
I remember some weeb faggot, probably like yourself, had the little anime girl sleeves and everything. Full Japanese deck. So my little brother is playing against him, and like the special autistic fuck he is, he casts a harvest pyre. My 15 year old little brother doesn't know what this is, the faggot scoffs and says "seriously dude? Look it up" I told him if he wants to bring foreign cards to the shop again he better be ready to explain it. Seriously, I have no fucking idea why weeks think they're superior to fucking anyone. If it had been a normal environment without a bunch of autists who have no idea what normal human behavior I would have told him to fuck right off.

Link to a list? I have a foil playset of breaking and entering and I'm interested in the meme potential.

>>51403226

8 fuse spells, 8 of the 'expertise' spells (the 3 mana red one and the 4 mana white one), and then mana dorks and fatties to cheat into play. The nut draw is you have turn 1 dork, turn 2 Kari Zev's Expertise to cheat Breaking//Entering for free and then put an Emrakul into play with haste to attack your opponent. Meme deck, and I hope it's not a real thing.

Breaking//Entering reanimates, it's not a through the breach equivalent

Original dude who probably fabricated the story: Harvest Pyre is a perfectly reasonable fun-of to play in UR or Temur decks that don't have access to the hard removal in black or white. Don't dunk on the weeb just because he was playing it.

Guy was talking about his 15 year old brother, you aspie fucks.

I can identify almost every card based on artwork going back to Urza's block. Help.

>>51403340

>>51403353
Yeah but how the fuck are you getting an Emrakul off Breaking//Entering? How are you getting anything off of it on turn 3 without any self mill?

>>51403340

Yeah, I know that. I guess I should have specified that it only cheated a creature off the top 8 cards of your library though.

>>51403371
you can cast both sides if you can fuse the spell from your hand for free with brain in a jar or expertise

>>51403371

>>51403298
I don't know what the fuck you people are arguing about based off that post chain.

Bottom line, if you are using illegible cards and someone asks you about them you do them the courtesy of explaining what it does or even better, calling a judge/player who knows. That way everyone is welcoming and accommodated.

Not everyone knows every fucking card, and even the best players have to re-read a card to make absolutely sure they know what it does so they don't get wrecked by some corner case. LSV reads fucking cards because he wants to make sure he doesn't fuck up.

And if you leave the Standard thread you had better have your big boy pants on because the reason why we're not in the Standard thread is because we're fucking tired of dealing with entry-level shit, which includes explaining shit that a non-Standard player should have learned to google by now. But it seems like some people in real life haven't even learned the common courtesy of explaining shit to others, which is disappointing.

I never said I did that anywhere in my post you raging faggot, I simply gave a solution to when you're playing with some autist who refuses to explain his cards which can happen even without the language barrier. You're the one who came into the thread and started calling people who use foreign cards weeb faggots just because of one bad experience.

talking about Future Sight, I purchased this monstrosity of a miscut today. got it for $85 from a guy at my LGS

>>51403801
We don't have cards hosing these decks, so naturally cards don't get printed for these combo decks to exist, or are banned.

There's a reason Rite of flame/song, Pod ( reminder that toolbox strategies are ultimately combos ), Cruise are banned anon. If you don't have cards like Daze, FoW to keep those in check, the format gets really frustrating for the other side of the table.

>>51403801
Because there's no fucking counterplay and people want to be able to reach out and fucking slap your deck off the battlefield. All the combo that has been castrated if not sent to the chopping block in Modern experiences both those problems.

Nobody can tell whether a card is fake on the internet, so yeah they're fucking up with you.

I'd advise a light test. But even if it passes the test, it could still be fake.

The best way to see this, is having a magnifying glass, and seeing if the priting pattern ( you'll see what I'm talking about ) is also on the border. If it is, then it's fake.

Anon ... as you can see, there's a printing pattern in the border. In a real MTG card, the border is plain white, or plain black.

>Dies to Doom Blade: the argument

Every 2 mana threat without hexproof dies to at least one of those cards, you drooling retards. But I guess we'd better stop sleeving up Goyfs and Bobs, they die to Fatal Push! xD

>>51406382
But Goyf doesn't die to bolt or require crew like Copter.

>>51406382
I think there's a real possibility we may see less goyf due to fatal push, but I doubt it, it does well against every other piece of removal. But the bigger thing is if goyf is your only creature it can still attack, so it's never a dead card unlike copter.
Bob is just so incredible if it lives that it's worth the possible tempo loss to removal, pretty much the only creature that doesn't pass the bolt test that sees play in modern unless I'm forgetting something. Copter just doesn't compare.

>>51406382
If you even think for a minute that smug copter even compares to tried and true modern staples like goyf, bob, delver, tasigur, Tks etc. then you're the drooling retard not me. Let's not get into how you need a creature for it to be relevant and when you crew it either dies or gets blocked by a one mana flip card and worst case they abrupt decay copter in response to the crew and you just tapped a creature for nothing. You can play your neutered standard deck in modern all you want, but it doesn't make it good.

>>51406555

It's not a Goyf, or a Bob, but more of an Anafenza or a Young Peezy. A role player in the respective deck. BW Tokens doesn't need more help against fair decks (which, I'm totally admitting Smuggler's Copter is bad in those matchups) it needs help finding the right cards against all of the linear decks in the format that can't kill it (which is about half). And you can't really compare a 2 mana artifact to Thought-Knot Seers or Tasigurs. 2 mana does not equal 4 mana.

>>51406439

Steel Overseer, Blighted Agent, Ravager, Kiln Fiend, Bob, etc. etc. Plenty of playable cards in Modern trade down for Lightning Bolt, let alone the new Fatal Push.

>>51406458

Failing the bolt test means that it trades down, not at parity. If it also casts a "spell" either entering play or when it gets bolted (Eidolon, for example) that's not failing the bolt test.

>>51405541
>they're playable in Modern no matter what you say :^)
i play them in UW Jerks.

started with two, now up to four. they're good. like REAL good.

you ever get the feeling that modern players are just chickenshit posers? kids are afraid to push the envelope because they might fail or worse they might have to face the fact that they're shitty magic players.

to quote el-p
>you don't innovate because you CAN'T innovate. it's not a choice, despite what you might tell your boys.

>>51406458
that passes the bolt test. Costing the same as bolt means you're at no tempo loss.
>>51406692
Ravager passes most of the time too because it gets value on death. Correct on the others though.

CRUSH THOSE NETDECKING FUCKS WITH THIS ON-CURVE BEAUT.

i uhhhhhh have some very....concerning news about modern to a lot of people, this is coming from a guy working at wotc (hey man having wotc guys at your lgs has some perks ya know) and mainly concerns modern along with investing and a hearty bit of legacy

wotc is considering completely changing the fuck out of modern, in a big big way

>what have we seen recently?
git probe banned, grave troll banned, lack of zen fetch reprints, along with other reprints like damnation

>what is the implication here?
wotc doesnt want combo decks in modern, seething song's ban hurt storm, eye of ugin really hurt eldrazi (not necessarily a "combo" deck but the interactions were pretty nutty), git probe's ban hurts blue (and is a nail in the coffin to storm along with winging infect), ggt's ban eliminates another combo deck entirely (instead of just weakening it by banning out another card), splinter twin and summer bloom are both banned (killing two very popular and powerful combo decks)

i disagree with the probe ban, and was curious about it, so i asked my acquaintance the wotc guy (we'll call him Eric) after a few drinks and a couple bowls about it

the gist of it, according to eric, is that this is the start of some major changes to modern, they want to weaken blue because theyre going to hurt other colors soon and dont want to leave blue overpowered when the changes hit, this also hurts combo decks by preventing them from getting free info against control decks and free draw against well everything and was considered a pretty much auto include in every blue deck, especially combo dekcs

so, whats to come? some crazy fucking bans, and some unbans as well, this is all going to happen either on MMA3's release or the set after

>>51407391
tappedout.net/mtg-decks/enduring-meme/
fixed the link

>>51407411
according to Eric, here is what wotc is currently throwing around

>fetchlands banned, lots of outcry against fetches, wotc has finally decided they may just be too strong for modern yet too dangerous to reprint outside of the Masters sets, khans fetch reprint was an experiment and it showed that shit is too fucking good to reprint and every deck pretty much has to include them no matter what

>as a result, deathrite shaman is no longer fucking OP as shit and can be brought back into modern (wotc didnt want to take him out since RTR was a newer set, so bloodbraid caught the first bullet, they didnt want to ban BBE as prior to DRS BBE itself wasnt oppressive). this makes evolving wilds good (i shudder at the thought i really do) and is going to reshape the mana bases for moderno

>because mana bases are going to be looking a helluva lot different in a couple months due to no fetches, MMA3 will not reprint shocks, wotc thinks that without fetches people are going to play much fewer shock lands and will opt for fast/check lands instead along with jamming things like Evolving wilds

>tarmogoyf is going to get the axe as well, they dont want to consider for a second bringing it back in standard due to fears of the price never declining and the price of the released set spiking in value compared to other sets in standard, if shops price up the packs of a Masters set, big fucking whoop, but if they price up standard packs that hurts people playing standard, which is where wotc gets the most coverage and money, and they dont want a standard set to be scarce or priced up by even a cent

>BBE will get an experimental unban during this period as well, with goyf gone green needs a slight power boost to creature value and BBE may just fit in well, however its head is in the proverbial guillotine for at least a set just to see how it plays out

>cont

>>51407482
good stuff, do you write sonic fan fiction too or just MTG?

>>51407482
>preordain may get the same treatment as BBE, the lack of fetches in the format means you cant do shuffle shenanigans with draw spells to boot, ponder is staying banned, but SDT may come back because you cant shuffle away shit top spins constantly

>theyre also experimenting with the possibility of a restricted list for both modern and legacy, legacy is pretty much guaranteed

>legacy restricted list is going to take cards to 2x each card, is going to immediately include a lot of the reserve list, including every single dual land, lion's eye diamond, city of traitors, gaea's cradle, mox diamond, and others that he couldnt remember (again, this was after some drinks/bowls), this is their "fix" for not being able to get rid of the reserve list, brainstorm is on this list too

>frontier is going to never be supported because its a cancerous version of extended and basically people are dumb for supporting it, wotc has taken into account that people "like" this format really only because its not modern and want to change modern to essentially appease these people and get them to buy back into sealed product like MMA3 (wotc is a business duh)

i have probably, oh, 4-5 thousand of modern staples sitting in a box and i am shitting my fucking pants, im offloading things like my goyfs and zendikar fetches etc, im de-investing in modern because people are going to be pissed as fuck when these changes hit, theyre mostly going to hit all at once, and there's nothing that we can do to stop this shit

this is going to badly damage modern in the short term, and reversing it may not revive the format should these changes kill it, but wotc is concerned that the format will just stagnate and die if they dont do it.

im basically selling everything that isnt my burn deck and isnt going to get unbanned, this is also really going to hurt legacy, prices of reserve list cards are going to take a good hit in their prices int he short term

>cont

>>51407482
if the shops price up standard packs any competing store will just buy more. standard sets are unlimited print run, stores can buy a literally unlimited amount, as long as they're willing to pay they can order as much as they like.
this is all fake as fuck but at least try not to be a retard about it

>>51407566
but because reserve list the prices will climb regardless

tl;dr

>fetches banned, goyf banned
>DRS is back baby, maybe BBE
>restricted lists for both legacy and modern, might bring SDT back to modern, lots of reserve list cards geting restricted in legacy

>>51407541
whether or not you chose to believe me is up to you man, this guys given me a good amount of info in the past on bans and everything along with reprints and the expeditions/inventions so i have no reason not to believe him

everybody local is being super tight lipped about it because wotc employees could be sitting right next to you while you play/trade and we arent trying to get Eric and anybody else who is leaking this shit into trouble, but hey because its anonymous here there's zero risk for me to say this shit

>>51407574
>competing store will just buy more
even shit that doesnt have a limit during its run has varying prices depending on stores

>standard sets are unlimited print run
their run does end, and the concern is that should goyf be in a standard set that they wont be able to keep their distributors with product in hand, its not liek the shit appears out of thin air

>stores can buy a literally unlimited amount
not fi its out of stock

>this is all fake as fuck but at least try not to be a retard about it

i tried to give you guys a hand but if you dont want it, fine by me, i lose nothing from you guys eating a huge loss on cards

really your best bet is to swap to legacy, goyf will still be legal there, and shocks might just be half decent with duals on a restricted list

Remember when you could get tier one decks for about 200$? I absolutely loathe speculants and proffesional secondary market companies, especially scg and channel fireball for gouging the prices. Now we are looking at 500 on a good deal and average of 700. And wizards themselves arent helping the situation. They play stupid, but look at the pattern of rarity in new sets. Distribited to ensure that as few as possible cards will be modern viable, all of which rares or higher to make them as expensive as possible.

>>51407630
It's in print for 6 months, goyf is going to be cheap as shit if it's ever in standard again. Far cheaper than flip jace which didn't see significant play til after origins was out of print.
>>51407630
>its not liek the shit appears out of thin air
oh yeah, I heard the world supply of cardboard is super low, they won't be able to literally print them off by the thousands.

>>51407630
>>51407703
to expand on it a bit more, lets say goyf gets into a standard set, that set gets marked up to $5-6 a pack (shops will gladly make more on packs cuz their margins are shit on em and they have no reason to undercut other stores when they can make an extra buck off a packthat will still sell at an inflated price), demand will still be stupid high for that set, next set comes out and has nothing comparable to goyf, so people dont buy into it, and rightfully so cuz the other set has fucking goyf in it, but they want to push the new set so their distribs have a ton of the new shit and nothing of goyf set because it all gets bought out instantly

goyf price is going to get hurt, but now its going to be played in standard, the modern ban definitely hurts the price a good deal, but its still goyf, will still be played in legacy, and will see play out the asshole in standard

>It's in print for 6 months, goyf is going to be cheap as shit if it's ever in standard again. Far cheaper than flip Jace which didn't see significant play til after origins was out of print.
there is absolutely no way in hell that goyf will be cheaper than flip jace for long if at all, inflated price of packs will help to bolster it, same as the masters sets in that regard

>oh yeah, I heard the world supply of cardboard is super low
not nearly as low as yoru supply of brain power

>>51407741
there will be no inflated pack prices. They have massive reason to price competitively since they'll not only not sell their current packs but lose their player base if they go to another store, who will be happy to meet the massive demand at MSRP. You simply have no understanding of economics if you think otherwise. Didn't read your stupid post any further.

>>51407788
>there will be no inflated pack prices

do you really have such a short memory that you dont remember the hefty inflation on the Masters sets? look at the crash in pack/box prices once wotc announced a second run of ema, look at the inflation on commander sets (which have a print run for as long as product is selling), why undercut when nobody else it? not to mention a lot of stores (especially in the seattle area) base off SCG prices, i cant imagine seattle is unique to that so this isnt going to necessarily be a locality thing

>but lose their player base if they go to another store
and that other store is going to have similar if not same pricing on those packs, with goyf being a regular print along with a masterpiece/expedition print in the set (wotc sees these as a huge success and they arent going away) players will absolutely pay for the new pricing

enjoy your cucked budget deck buildilng, im gonna go off my modern shit and not lose a ton of money on staples (which you probably dont own in the first place lmao)

>>51401727
You have to play the good old Proteus Staff/Manland deck.

It's a fucking midrange/the rock type deck.

There are no counterfeits that would pass inspection by a judge on the market as far as I know.

Should I keep my foil Zen fetches though due to foils being more in demand in Legacy/Vintage?

>>51407482
>banning fetches
Wizards is not that retarded desu, if they want to save modern they just need to take a more hands off approach and only intervene when it is absolutely necessary.

That's what happens when you buy real goyfs to kikes instead of fake chinamen cardboard that you didn't even noticed it was fake off of a sleeve.

If the want to save modern they will need to uncuck themselves and reprint counterspell and daze. and players will have to uncuck themselves and stop crying about counterspells being unfun

>>51407630

>fetches banned, goyf banned

They better ban lili or my bogles deck is completely fudged.

>>51406547
Depends on how afraid of Stony Silence you are.

>>51409049
>From matchup
Draw needles and win, although that matchup can just be a straight up coin flip at times. Also ghost quarter surgical in the main to keep them off of tron is nice.
>valakut decks
I only have experience with the RG titanshit but this one always comes down to getting a valakut in the graveyard and extracting it or getting bridge down early to stop Titan from dicking me.

The deck is tuneable to Tron and I'll probably need to do more testing on valakut decks. I'm more worried about burn/jund/abzan, but there was a list recently that ran leyline main board to improve those matchups and it went 5-0 so I still have hope.

>>51409104
Daze and Jace, the Merfolk Looter might make for a really powerful Delver deck. Bounce a land you didn't really need then ditch it to basically draw a card for free, then flip Jace and Bolt your opponent. Actual value plays.

>>51407823
I guess you forget Walmart and Target sell packs too, and won't be raising the MSRP?

>the term watcha is something something hurr durr
Y'mean watcha as in 'watcha doin'?

If so then no, that's normal talk and you are the autist.
Anyway

>best deck in Modern right now?
Lantern, RG Breach, Tron (Notice none of them are affected in the slightest by Fatal Push.)

>What do you want to build right now?
A Jund or Grixis that isn't shitty.
Sultai would be nice but not holding my breath.

>What deck will get the next ban?
Any remaining 0 cost fast mana stuff.
Mox Opal, Simian Spirit Guide, Lotus Bloom.
Possibly Eldrazi Temple.

>What are you playing and hating?
Hating the combo shit floating around.
Grishoalbrand, Ad Nauseam, Living End.
Too many non-games.

>>51409327
Yeah this - the rest are supplemental which have tiny print runs comparatively. No standard set has ever had supply issues for the simple fact that toy stores sell packs to casuals on a scale far beyond the rate anyone sells to anyone that knows what an lgs is

>Zendikar fetches at rare
>Gigantic print run
>Regular RRP
Oh look I just saved Modern and made Wizards a shit ton of money.

>>51406488
That looks pretty fun, are there really no other playable vehicles? And fuck everyone shitting on you, of course you know it will never be tier 1 who gives a shit

Is it worth running Ruinous path sideboard as 8rack?

>>51410021
What are you afraid of? Planeswalkers? Just play pithing needle

>>51409941
We have to wait until they peak and then scg and channel fireball can sell them all out before they reprint you stupid fucking goy.

>>51400449
"Red Deck Wins" is not burn. MtGTop8 has always just called it burn.

>>51410410
RDW and Burn have always been the same thing. Just because it's now splashing white for a single card doesn't mean it's not RDW at heart. Pedantry just makes you look like a dipshit.

>>51410021
Awaken isn't worth it being sorcery speed, hero's downfall is better

Why is it so fucking hard getting some sideboard/mainboard commons?

It took me 4 months to get playset of Nature's Claim and I'm still looking for 2 Delvers and couple of other commons like Funeral Charm, Geth's Verdict, Raven's Crime and Rite of Consumption.
