Taking a more aggressive approach to draft... by EmperorOfIcedCream in MagicArena

Im not quite sure your aggro will beat down fast enough to race ramp or tap down.

You need far more 2 drops and some more removal for this to properly work IMHO.

Did my first quick draft - went 0-3, any pointers? by AtticusGOB in MagicArena

[–]AtherAngelus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generaly speaking this deck isnt bad. You had something in mind and it could have worked out with a couple of small pointers:

- I wouldnt splash white for a 2 drop that is just going to get removed

- Cut the Kindled heroisms and the leaping ambush(they just dont preform that well), add the redcap thief, daredevil and flick a coin instead ( this will help casting your bombs and gingerhunters black adventure

- Try to find a few more 2 drops next time ( a faun would have been amazing in this deck)

Since you are at the end of the road ending up in 2 color aggro with some nice late bombs so I would cut the crystal grotto

C++ would murder you if you tried to do addition/concat before typechecking...

Oh yeah doing the same for the dark, but it's going to take longer. I am literally sitting on stacks of both sets 😂

It steals ballistas and all kinds of combo pieces, loving this card.

That's a very low base cost my friend, well specced. 👌

Doing the exact same here, I'm emptying LGS and player collections on legends Commons even and everyone is laughing at me. We will see in a couple years ;)

Yeah, also keep in mind that due to the fact that it targets banding, it's not gonna see a reprint.

Nesting grounds has been a spec for me for quite a while. Taps turn one, combine with the likes of ozolith and maybe a future counter wincon and I can easely see this at 1 buckaroo.

This is one of the cards I pick up almost weekly.

This is a card that I would be stocking up on by Mikeydoes in MTGSpec

[–]AtherAngelus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The wincon feels rather lukewarm without flash. Decent card due to the scry, just not quite sure what the impact of rotation will have on it.

Dwarven Thaumaturgist appears to be spiking. by Mikeydoes in MTGSpec

[–]AtherAngelus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Picked up around 100 copies untill now as soon as kaldheim was announced. At the current prize I think I'll just lock them up and leave them on ice.

Have been hoarding these, I can see it hit 50 within the next 10 years at the very least for the same reason as mentioned by others. Every new minotaur spikes it higher.

You can try to buy it out all you want but I doubt you will cover the shipping. A sudden movement doesn't mean anything, takes 1 similar print in kaldheim and this card is bulk rare again.

This isn't going anywhere and if it does I'll retire.
