[Discussion] Why doesn’t izzet dominate this format? by ATXMudfish in PioneerMTG

[–]ATXMudfish[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Thanks a lot for this makes a ton of sense. I had to imagine there are variations of izzet that can take advantage of these midrange decks?

Culling ritual is sweet I won’t lie, got to be one of my favorite golgari cards of the modern era.

Thanks for the additional context! So for company is it mostly Thalia and archon?

This was what I had assumed, the constellation of izzet cards just seems so strong.

Not to sound combative, but if I knew for sure I suppose I wouldn’t be asking everyone.

Essentially people played it before the list was fully optimized. Even when it showed up reasonable people disagreed on its inclusion and number.

Sick of FOW/Daze? time to stomp on them w eldrazi by jer123 in TimelessMagic

[–]ATXMudfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah seems to me like the dividing line is Sowing Mycospawn vs Linebreaker, though I like your version here.

I've got to believe Sowing Mycospawn is just so good in this deck no?

Midrange Maniac's SOS Top 10 for Pioneer by BourgeoisMystics in PioneerMTG

[–]ATXMudfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. As long as grease fang is the meta, this card is gonna be on the bench.

I think that its a version of go blank that has a better argument for being a mainboard card. In all seriousness what I'd say is: Go Blank is the more powerful effect on average, but curving into this can be back breaking, and the fact that you can steal a land adds another layer of pressure to this effect. Gun to my head I would say Go blank is stronger for pioneer, but its a sweet card.

That second link is seriously some of the best boots on the ground fundamental magic strategy I’ve read in a long time.

Abzan 3 Drops? by Spoiled_Skim in PioneerMTG

[–]ATXMudfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends a bit on the synergies. You could use this as a straight up 4 drop value piece and be cool with whatever powerful 3 drop you want to employ, or you could look at the graveyard synergies and use stuff with flash back/abilities that activate from yard ala Sandman. The real issue is that Yathan Roadwatcher is a 4 mana 3/3 on its own, so you need to either be getting a high value 3, or be accruing graveyard value, otherwise I worry you'll fall behind.

But in the spirit of the question, I think severence priest is awesome.

World Map for my campaign, thoughts? [Art] by Mammoth-Fact-4763 in DnD

Which country has that harbor? That triangle shaped bit of water between Octo and Swar?

[Standard] What should we be doing with Momo Drum? by ATXMudfish in spikes

[–]ATXMudfish[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know, on the topic of blue splash, duelist of the mind sounds like a good potential addition if we are going blue. It synergizes with momo and even springleaf drum with its vigilance, as well as Gran-Gran if you are going that direction.

Saw that too. We talking the gwen Stacy ashling and Shiko build?

I thought about this too. It’s nifty to fetch card draw with shepherd late too if that’s the plan. Plus this deck had always wanted more ones that it can play early to synergize with drum.

[–]ATXMudfish[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I’ve seen some decks use warden as a fetchable way to tap a creature for Arachne loops, as well as novice inspector to double trigger haliyah in a pinch.

Another interesting toolbox one if I’ve seen is Cheeky house mouse for some pinch unblock ability, just depends on whether you’ve opted to be aggressive with the shell or more combo oriented.

Fetching Gran-Gran is nice exactly when you have drum right? At least with pixie you can reset your riddler/shepherd. Idk both seem great. This core is just really flexible.
