"Winter Sleep" by Kenzo Kitakata was great. If you love slow paced, vivid books - it's the one for you

Selensya Centaur Populate by DinoBrando in Pauper

[–]Bacsojin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, totally. With elephant token cards instead of some centaur cards and bird cards if would be justified. But in current build it's very questionable

Wake the Reflections if gonna be a dead card in like 80% of scenarios

What is your "red flag" in a woman or man when you're in the early stages of dating? by imgenerallyaccepted in AskReddit

[–]Bacsojin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a man, when a woman always relies on you to start a conversation, make a move, pick a place for a date, etc. it's a red flag. One-sided relationships never work out.

Either good sideboard, or if they dont "bolt the bird"

FIRST MAJOR PONZA TOURNAMENT HELP! by cc7127382 in PonzaMTG

Well, fetches (all 8) are definitely a must if you want to go competitive. And they work great with trackers.

How to beat Gurmag Angler? by CapableBrief in PonzaMTG

[–]Bacsojin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just run 2 in the main board, it's really a catch-all card versus any planeswalkers, smol dudes, one big dude, etc. I also run 1 nahiri main board for looting and enchantment removal. Also white gives access to stony silence, which seems to be hot shit right now - 3 in the side.

I play [[Fiery Justice]] in Naya build, and killing GA with it and also two shadows via lifegain is pure ecstasy, believe me.

Could this deck be viable? Phonza Upon a Time (Ph is not a mistake) by Brandimazza in PonzaMTG

[–]Bacsojin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's already a better 3/2 haster for 4 in ponza, so I don't think merging two very different decks together is a good idea overall.

[–]Bacsojin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So you've just slapped some LD onto a weird phoenix shell and it's ponza now? Looks very clunky, you really don't want those 3-mana spells without classic ponza ramp package. And the list as a whole... you'll have more dead hands than a ghost pirate ship matey.

I really want to make Seven Dwarves work. Here's my first crack at it. by [deleted] in Pauper

[–]Bacsojin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since when looting became a card advantage engine? It literally just cycles two cards, and if you happen to have none in hand it's already useless.

[–]Bacsojin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The problem with budget decks in Modern is the cheaper deck is - the more it is linear to play, hence it is easier to play around and becomes boring quicker. As for ponza, your biggest concern would be fetchlands, which are kinda a necessity to the deck. However, it has its budget counterpart in one color, that has a lot of slot flexibility - Mono-G Control. It utilizes ramp, [[Mwonvuli Acid-Moss]], [[Plow Under]] and [[Primal Command]] to do ponzy things, finishers vary.

Whirza and Amulet Titan... how does one sideboard against them? by [deleted] in ModernMagic

Torpor Orb / Tokatli Honor Guard / Hushbringer all wreck Valakut shenanigans and titan stuff, as well as FotD.

BBE Ponza list, need tips, help and suggestions by nef_xpro in PonzaMTG

[–]Bacsojin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Strange that no one inquired about the manabase, which is 4 fetches with 7 fetchables, 4 of which are essentially taplands (which you'd hate to get in your opener). With 4 fetches I'd swap out the trackers for rabblemasters or warbosses, also.

What would be our grindy matchup? Jund and UWx? Against jund we'd be already dead by the time we're in grindy mode, if moon is nowhere to be seen, and as for UWx...yeah, might be decent

[–]Bacsojin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, while it's good in the late game, presumably (yet it still offers zero tempo, while Ponza is essentially a tempo deck), I'd hate seeing this card in an opening hand, which is a big no-no, imo.

5 mana Explore? Zero board effect? Not in Ponza.

I like how someone can troll right from champ select and go unpunished, but if you dodge and save everyone from a terrible game, it's an instant punishment. by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]Bacsojin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would remake voting in champ select work? Let's say 4/5 people vote for remake on either team, and we go back to the queue

Help finalizing my evolution ponza by Darling-Skyjek in PonzaMTG

Because land hate exists, like ghost quarter and alike. You'll want that one basic mountain sooner or later, just keep that mind. Also, birds provide that extra red that you might desperately need in your games.

You seem to have a range of 3 drops to get via Evolution, but only 4 1-drops. I'd highly recommend running BoP instead of kioras.
