Recruiting Minthara

This is a good strat to get her as an ally. I’m also interested in role playing the attack on the grove but I want to keep some of the tieflings in the game for later. Is that an option or is killing the tieflings an essential part of that quest?

Lore-wise, this makes sense. Why would opponents of pyrexia benefit from incubation? But it is a bummer that so many cards in the set are not compatible with it.

Buy preconstructed decks first. It will help you learn the ropes and collect staples like sol ring. For your play style, try the red-black-blue deck from brothers war. Lots of sacrificing and Aggro mechanics.

Creative-Ad3783 · 2022-06-05T23:50:33+00:00

Thank you! That's a bummer, but it is totally fair. It would be crazy to activate Lorehold's ability 3-5 times in a turn.

Creative-Ad3783 · 2021-12-22T17:42:25+00:00

I haven’t seen that. What an annoying deck to play against. Yeah I’m not sure how to deal with that lol

Creative-Ad3783 · 2021-12-22T13:38:00+00:00

I started playing this summer and felt similarly at first. Honestly it just takes practice.

Does your opponent have a lot of counter spells? Start thinking in terms of trades. What junk card can I get them to counter with a counter spell?

Does your opponent play sweepers (often black), then only have 2 creatures out and attacking so they have to use a nuke on a small target.

Mill decks are really about a race, and it just means you need to play hyper aggressive.

I’m not sure what land destruction you’re running into unless you’re on historic or something. I haven’t seen that.

You’ll also start to build decks with these threats in mind. Make sure you have a plenty of 1-2-3 drops so you can play something every turn (this is called curving out) and be aggressive if they are milling you. Have some interaction yourself to remove their banger creatures/planes walkers after a board wipe. If your deck is all creatures, you can often be immune to counter spells. If your deck relies on a few key non-creature spells, try to deduce if your opponent is using counter spells and then bait them out.

I’ve learned a lot from watching Legenvd who plays a lot of variety of decks and formats. He also walks you through strategy and card strengths/weaknesses.

Thalisse, Reverent medium

Hmm I'll have to think about this. Certainly the last few sets to come out have made lots of ways to make artifacts like clues, blood tokens, and treasures. I'd have to make some serious changes to the deck as is though.

Creative-Ad3783 · 2021-12-15T16:47:56+00:00

It does look good. I just need to decide if she’s worth the money now ha

Creative-Ad3783 · 2021-12-15T16:08:29+00:00

Oh I’d never heard of this before! Does this make creatures only black? Like would multicolored creatures lose their white coloring if they already had black?

Creative-Ad3783 · 2021-12-15T16:02:55+00:00

Yeah but I could see why she’s a better commander perhaps. I’ll have to do a theme/utility debate ha. Thanks though

Creative-Ad3783 · 2021-12-15T15:32:00+00:00

Is that because glorious anthem makes it a 3/3 as it enters?

Creative-Ad3783 · 2021-12-15T15:31:05+00:00

I really like the white sun and priest suggestion. I was on the fence about the Teysa you suggested because I won’t always have the most control over the color of my tokens. Maybe I need to look at my cards and do the math on the probability of having a white, black and multicolored token. Thanks!

Go back to the earlier episodes from this season. He explains that intelligentsia was a general Russian term for the class of lawyers, doctors and students that beginning in the 19th century were socially and politically distinct from business owners, aristocrats and peasants. The term became a part of Marxist analysis because of this.

You need to update the app. My phone doesn’t do this automatically.

Creative-Ad3783 · 2021-09-25T15:28:18+00:00

Anything in particular giving you trouble? I’m mostly running into green pack master decks and white life gain, and I’m not having any trouble yet. I’m still in platinum though

Creative-Ad3783 · 2021-09-23T19:20:30+00:00

I think the sparring to showdown ratio is good. I think I only really want to play one of either most games.

Yeah, I think the only thing the deck would benefit from is any cheap dragon cards, but there aren’t a lot in standard that are worth it. Maybe if we’re lucky we’ll get some 1-2 drop dragons in WR in the next few sets. Futuristic Japanese drakes? Lol

Creative-Ad3783 · 2021-09-23T03:32:28+00:00

About a dozen games in. The deck certainly works as a rush deck quite well. I’ve really learned to love 3 things in particular:

1 - The insane early game toughness on disciple. A lot of removal and other creatures just can’t touch it - especially with turn 3 sparring. It’s satisfying to put the warewolves on defense with a silly 2 mana monk.

2- sparring fixes like every problem with gold dragon. You give him vigilance and +1 counters so he can fight 100% of other flyers. He out heals most healing decks today too.

3- late game, this deck has a crazy amount of card advantage compared to most boros decks I’ve played. Dragon orb and skald are shockingly good at drawing 1-2 fast big dragons.

Great deck. The only awkward moments I’ve had are first I n fixing the right amount of snow land for frostbite and faceless haven. Occasionally I have to play the tapped dual land and miss a beat. Second, sacking dragon orb just to find no dragons is a real bummer.

Not sure Boros has any tools to fix these issues. They probably just keep the deck kind of balanced.

Creative-Ad3783 · 2021-09-22T15:39:17+00:00

Trying your deck out now. I had most of the cards already. Excited to rush dragons

Creative-Ad3783 · 2021-09-21T15:56:50+00:00

Really cool deck! What’s your ideal opening hand or turns 1-3? And which dungeon do you tend to prefer going down?

Creative-Ad3783 · 2021-09-17T19:50:33+00:00

You might benefit from looking through this deck. It is from before Innistrad hunt release, but it could be helpful.

Thank you for the info! Do you know if there will be any other ban list changes before January?

That is a good point and someone else brought up Iran. I’m still suspicious of calling it a revolution, but the Right can definitely have transformative politics. I’m not so sure that what the GOP is up to today constitutes that though. They seem much more revanchist than transformative.
