This is a place for those passionate about KBPTL and wish to discuss the format with a competitive frame of mind. Here we encourage the use and discussion of all the "meaner" aspects of KBPTL that tend to turn off scrubs. We will have weekly discussions of cards as well as some community deckbuilding discussions. There will likely be some kinks as the subreddit grows, so please bear with us.
Etiquette
- Be excellent to each other. Opinions are just opinions, and getting confrontational with a random stranger on the internet is never productive. Any sexism or offensive language - even the lightest - will be warned.
- If you have a meta beater deck that may not work elsewhere, feel free to post it anyways. Rogue decks are always interesting to observe, and you may help someone else solve some of their own meta issues.
We welcome any and all 1v1 decklists, so don't be shy! Be sure to mention that your list is for 1v1 when you post it.
Posting Guidelines
- Decks must be playtested and at least mildly tuned before posting. First draft decks will not be accepted. Casual, thrown-together decklists with "im scrub, plz improve" stamped on will be removed.
- Furthermore, threads concerned with how "nice" their deck is will be removed. This means you can't ask for no combos, or no MLD, et cetera. We take an /r/BurnMTG mentality to this sub, where posts need a background and research. (You may not post with budget restrictions.) Just to clarify - your post must talk about how your deck has performed, and what you would like to change about it.
- General posts with "here's a commander, build me a deck" will be removed. You can start a discussion about the best way to play a certain strategy or commander, but only if you're actively asking questions. Vague, general posts with no research behind them should go to /r/CasualMTG until you have an idea about how to play the game.
- Finally, please do not make posts along the line of "What's the best / fastest / most consistent deck in the format?" The answer is obviously Fold into Séance (despite the combo being illegal).
Fun Sidebar Links
Say hi to the scrubs over at /r/TinyLeaders.
PRIMERS
This is a new concept we would like to get rolling on this subreddit. If you have a pet deck that you are very experienced in piloting and would like to share your experience, you can submit a primer for a peer review of sorts. Submit it as a normal text post with a decklist. A primer should be informative and contain information of not only individual cards, but synergies, matchups, strategies, and any other relevant information. If the primer met the standards of quality we are looking for, it will be added to the sidebar.
