Bombed out of the Worcester open this weekend. I'm fairly new to the deck, and I wasn't playing the pact build, so that's not surprising. Even if I was, that wouldn't be surprising lol. Fun anway. Had some insane games, had teammates get kicked out of the venue, had teammates disappear for 24+ hours. Wild.

I bear a guy through a chalice on 1 the the before he would have killed me with Marit Lage. He even put it on board because he knew I couldn't touch it. Felt good.

I also had a guy scoop g1 to me because he's seen what I was playing and wanted to basically pre-side and guarantee that he'd be on the play. Got him my first turn anyway, which was hilarious.

>>52639594
Gotta go fast beep beep raise hell praise Dale, basically. But it has a lot more depth of play and build flexibility than people realize. There's RSI, the old school robots/tallmen build, which offers a solid whiff recovery and probaby the 2nd best speed. QSI, quasi SI, which is barely an SI because it almost never goes off turn 1, bu is super resilient to counter magic. There's SITES, which is a hybrid with TES, often uses a wishboard for utility, and can sometimes feel like belcher without belcher. And there's PSI, the pact build, which is a very different animal from the others. It has close to a 70% t1 win rate if uninterrupted, and uses a super weird sideboard to grind out long wins in the ass half of the match.

Skilled pilots could probably take QSI and PSI, which seem like the most worthwhile builds imo, to good tournament results. If Belcher can do it then so can the Grinch. But nobody plays it because it's tough to play well and people are little babies about their combos getting interrupted.

It really depends, there is a bigger legacy presence at my store too (thanks to my involvement with helping marketing for the store) but the decks are stuff like MUD/Elves/Dredge.

Now if you saw some rando walk up with a Czech Pile, you'd probably be suspicious. How do you even detect fakes, anyway? Are they just really obviously bad?

Do you think that it would make the cut in a legacy burn deck? I'm playing mono-red without Grim Lavamancer, I'm seriously thinking of removing the fetchlands and running him, more or less as another Eidolon.

He would also hit Stoneforge mystic, equipments, Inkmoth Nexus, but would be pretty useless against ANT, SnS or Eldrazi.
>>
>>52661728
looks cheap and at least somewhat efffective
>>
>>52661728
>>52664565
Is there a non-budget version or is this the only Worldgorger list?
>>
>>52662869
Stick him in the side and take note of how often and for what matches you bring him in for.
>>
>>52661728
I feel like any reanimator list not jamming Griselbrand is doing itself a disservice. It would afford you another target if worldgorger gets sniped pitches to unmask and draws you into the kill otherwise. I also question the efficiency of the worldgorger over something like the children/ tendrils package. Having to get your hands on the reanimation combo AND a pinger land [spooler]half of which hamper your speed while the other half only taps for and all eight die to wasteland, feels bad man.
>>
>>52656869
>>52662869

Also hits vial, so that's bonus as well. Btw, why would you need to remove fetchlands to run him?
>>
>>52665952
You wouldn't.
>>
>>52665952
It's a material of no longer needing the fodder to fuel lavamancer.
>>
>>52666141

But if he's playing lavamancerless version, why is he playing fetches in the first place?
>>
>>52666431
Huh. He did say without. Well that's red mages for you.
>>
>>52665631
If you can get your hands on only the reanimation enchantment and the dragon, you can draw the game. This is definitely a consideration. 3 card combos often aren't great, but because 1/3rd of the combo is the mana base it takes up less real estate in the deck. I'm not saying it's good necessarily, just that it can do some things. Also I'm pretty sure it's cheap as fuck. Like 100 bucks.
>>
>>52667083
>can draw the game
I hadn't realized that. I guess it really can't be stopped if you have no other targets and your opponent is a potato. I'm not skilled enough to know how or when I can leverage this to my benefit. Price point is definitly a boon and it nets one a lot of solid staples for later upgrading. My competative drive often blinds me to price. Despite everything, the mana base is really making me twitch.
>>
>>52664776
Worldgorger has some vintage lists that use blue for force of wills, you could look for those for ideas.
>>
>>52667279
Basically if you're dead on board or something, and you're missing the wincon land, you just try to jam the dragon loop anyway. The game ends in a draw and you get another chance. To do this there would have to be no creatures in your opponents grave either, but it will come up at some point. Also it's always funny when a judge gets called about it.
>>
>>52666431
>>52666141
>>52665983
Me again, sorry for the delay. I'm running the fetches mostly because I was transitioning from a deck with Lavamancers to a Rw version.
I didn't remove them because that change was supposed to be a fast process, and then money disappeared and now I'm seriously considering monoR again. I'll remove the (7) fetches, add (5) mountains.

That will let me bring 2 searing blazes from the sideboard in the main deck, and put 2 mentors in the main deck.

Actually a really good point. And for what it's worth, I'm not saying I'm care, I'm more asking about how you would even be able to tell unless it's obviously really shitty. I still wouldn't call a judge or anything.

>>52665631

>>
>>52672430
the best chinamen fakes are actually pretty good, especially ones with just the black and white set symbols (like FoW) because the set symbols are usually noticeably different. Aside from that, you can really only tell if you compare them side by side, but even then you can't be certain that its not just slightly different printings. I have real cards that are significantly lighter than average, the printing of old cards was much less consistent. If you take them out of their sleeves though, the fakes are glossier and the backs are consistently darker. They also don't pass the light test, so if you want to be certain you can shine a flashlight or something through it and you can see a pretty big difference.
>>
>>52672485
Sometimes I feel this way watching mengucci's cfb videos. I love the legacy content, but some of his plays are pretty questionable. That being said, he does a good job of recognizing his mistakes (even though there are a lot of them). Plus I feel he doesn't get enough credit for constantly changing decks and making new content every week. He doesn't really get a chance to put a ton of time into some of the more obscure decks that he plays, so it's understandable that he doesn't know some of the more nuanced interactions and lines.
>>
What fakes do you people actually run, and what sleeve set up do you use? They few china fakes Ive seen looked like shit, and the colors were fucked. It was a challice that was REALLY light, and an aether vail that had a fucky set symbol.. Im sick of playing burn all the goddamn time.

Social format. It is just an excuse to hang out.

>>52674575
But you can do that with any format. like getting the team together and practicing legacy, testing new brews, whatever. Do some whiskey shots between rounds of your wednesday night draft. No need for 100 card decks and shitty house rules.
>>
>>52674994
No scene for 60 card casual, no desire to play any tournament format.

The actual act of playing Legacy stresses me out. It genuinely is skill-testing in a way that my casual EDH decks are not.
>>
What are some weird decks? Ones that look bad and confusing on paper but work great.
>>
>>52677275
Confusing and weird glasscannon meme comboes like Oops, Horsemen and Leylines don't tend to work great nor consistent. Feel free to try cheese few wins though.

For me Nic Fit actually fits the bill of weird, bad, confusing and confusing on paper since I wouldn't expect anyone to bring such a fair, slow and durdly rock into legacy. The deck plays better than looks in my modest experience with/against it.
>>
>>52674994
In the various LGSs I've been to, people tend to play "serious", and they have decks corresponding to the metagame mentioned in the OP.

There's not much room for someone bringing some shitbrew or wanting to play casual (like my wonderful 0-7 with turbostasis at a local tournament). Next time, I'll bring a Wr parfait deck.

Brainstorm!

>>
>>52682182
I'd like to peer into the alternate universe where brainstorm was banned a year ago. It would pretty much just entirely demolish the format but I want to see what kind of meta would form for the five people who'd stil play it
>>
>>52682220
I think combo decks would suffer the least of the brainstorm decks. They'd just swap in preordains and take the moderate power level hit. Decks like delver and miracles really want brainstorm to keep their hand stocked with interaction, whereas combo decks just want to turn their cantrips into rituals. Obviously brainstorm can turn excess lands into rituals too so there would be some loss of power but I think ANT, for example, would just end up with 4 probe/4 ponder/4 preordain/2 SDT as standard cantrip suite.

not that guy but within the context of the conversation, I have to assume it's how the format is almost as expensive as legacy, but your deck has a 1-in-3 chance of being banned out of existence. Even more of a chance if you play a combo deck.

Nobody running things like Drills, Charbelcher, or Oops is worried about their decks being banned. I don't think any legacy deck is.

I'm still working to figure out if I like more of the traditional UG 12post list with Primeval Titan or the Turbo Eldrazi list that Joe Lossett played.

Turbo Eldrazi is badass - sol lands for days, voltaic key, posts, thran dynamo, and the original Eldrazi titans. It really appeals to the timmy in me.

there are many decks that run top, and the card isn't degenerate in most of them. it doesn't need to be banned.
terminus or counterbalance would be the correct ban. miracles would be the only deck hit.

>>52693762
The same goes for a lot of cards banned
>>
>brainstorm and ponder are restricted in vintage
>but unrestriced in legacy

Seems weird to me but I guess deck manipulation is more powerful in vintage.
>>
>>52693773
going in a lot of decks? sure, but that's because those cards are OP, and that's exactly why they are banned.
now, I'm not saying that terminus or counterbalance is on the same level of most banned cards, but if miracles was to receive a ban targeted only at it, those would be better options than top.
no one complains about top in general. the card is fine.

12 Post was a Tron deck before it got banned. But in Legacy you also get access to Ancient Tomb and City of Traitors so it's really more like 20 post.
>>
>>52699952
12 post runs so many land tutor effects, would they even run city of traitors? Seems like an odd slot in the lands, I'd imagine you'd want more room for basics, duals(if ub) , and fetches right?
>>
>>52700037

Alright in my defence, I often get 12 post and MUD mixed up because there's quite a big overlap in that both decks are trying to HUEG things early with colorless mana suites and MUD also can and sometimes runs the 12 post suite as well.
>>
>>52700142
Okay, that's fair, though both go off with big mana they do it in different ways, MUD has sol lands for a once or twice use to drop a metalworker and a lockpiece and then don't use the lands too much, and in colorless doesn't have access to green for crop rotation or prime time.
The twelve post suite is really broken through the abusing of candelabra of tawnos along with prime time pulling out a kill piece like eye of ugin(for oldrazi tutor) when you have 3+ cloudposts.
Do you have any deck lists for a 12 post suite in MUD?

This is what I'm using currently in paper but i've ported the deck to Xmage. Bear in mind I literally haven't bothered to tweak and update this deck in a while.

Turns out that I lose pretty hard to a turn 1 Sire of Insanity against Reanimator decks. That's my own fault for not playing a deck with Force of Will. Maybe I try and next level with a bunch of Wilt Leaf Liege's like how some people do with Ashen Rider against Show and Tell decks.

>>
>>52700878
Dredge actually, but keep thinking top+CC is broken and not superwrath for 1 mana at instant speed, proving more and more that you're just a very angry and cucked modern player, now go along and run to play your joke of a format before wizards decides to ban something else because your baby fee-fees are hurt again.
>>
>>52700953
>Cannot prove why baning top is not the correct choice
>Better go ad hominem, this will teach him xDxDXd
>>
>>52700973
Alright, here I'll explain it to you but even then your microbrain won't get it.
1. Top only enables a broken thing: superwrath which is why there is no fucking aggro that isn't balls to the wall retarded, because 1 mana wipes your board but even worse, it doesn't even feed your grave so even then you don't have recursion or on-dying mechanism to come back (no undying, no delve, etc...)
2. Banning top also hurts other decks and decreases the general skill of the format (which again a memedernette would love, you retards can't play for shit and cry when you lose)
3. CC+Top has always been a meme-tier combo specially with fucking decay around
4. All top does is "pay 1 get better card quality", it can go into pretty much any deck that can afford the mana, only miracles via terminus makes it broken since it's a 1 FUCKING MANA HYPER WRATH that pushes all aggro out of the board. Did I mention it also hard counters any combo deck trying to win via creatures or attacking?


TL;DR: 1. l2p 2. >>>/tg/modern general/
>>
>>52701172
>Banning top also hurts other decks and decreases the general skill of the format
But when asked about that you could not even say any other t1 deck that uses it, worst you don't even cared. so top is only really used on miracles and whatever other deck that uses does not even matter,
> CC+Top has always been a meme-tier combo specially with fucking decay around
A meme combo that has keep miracles the top dog deck for 4 years. yeah sure, miraclesfag,
>All top does is "pay 1 get better card quality"
Yeah, sure, and treasure cruise is only a pay 8 mana to draw 3 cards, and is banned, and mental misstep is just pay 2 life and counter 1 cmc spell, and still is banned. wew why not unban those things then?
>>
>>52701331
CB+top existed long before miracle cards or abrupt decay were printed. Then, it was neither oppressive nor fringe. It was fine. Miracles the deck's meteoric rise coincides with the printing of the Miracle cards. The only one of those that is played as more than a 1-of is Terminus. Conclusion: terminus is responsible for miracles the deck being a powerhouse.
>>
>>52701331
What would we ever achieve by banning top I ask? So what if miracles is most played deck or deemed the best? Counter top was never a problem to anyone before they printed terminus to destroy any boardstate faster than you can say fuck.

If you want to see banhammer every update, play modern. Getting your deck banned gets old really quick.
>>
Why don't they just change the rules of miracle cards specifically? They clearly didn't intend for them to be cast at instant speed. Terminus is a sorcery, there's no reason you should be able to cast it when it's not your turn. Seems like a loophole to me.

Miracle cards where crafted during a time when Legacy was still a pro tour format. They where quite aware of the possibilities. Its a feature. not a flaw.
>>
>>52704202
>We don't test for things outside of standard and limited
>>
>>52704265
However, they were designing cards at a power level high enough to potentially find a place in the then premier format. Inistraad and the previous two blocks introduced, Stoneforge and friend, Jace, Snapcaster, Griselbrand, Delver, and phyrexian mana for example.

>>
>>52704475
There are no control decks, Miracles is prison-combo, Delver is aggro, Leovold.dec is midrange. Fow is in every blue deck to go toe-to-toe with combo g1, not because the decks want the game to go long.
>>
>>52704475
Dredge is in bad spot in big tournaments, because DRS decks wear it down in a long run. Also why it isn't seen much in top 8, but it still can win FNMs.

Legacy European Championship 2017, 5-8 Burn.
I mean aggro has it tough, but for example Shardless BUG can't win a goblin deck. It just doesn't happen, it's impossible. Hence why roguedecks can sometimes put out results, because they happen to have amazing matchups.

Also
>Talking about archetypes
>In a format that has it all mixed together
Grixis delver is kinda midrange. It's kinda control deck, but also playing first turn beater in it's main game plan. Is DnT midrange or control? It can also take aggroish route by playing Stoneforge into Batterskull.
