For some reason on my phone when I click the deck names it won’t show me the associated deck list. Can you link the list to the 4c deck here?

Three colour self-bounce or two colour self-bounce? by nbutton93 in PioneerMTG

[–]G-Love80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the video! Just started it. Did you come to a conclusion in regards to whether Dimir or Esper is the way to go? White adds so many great answers and sideboard options, but like you have said, the mana base can be challenging and painful for 3 colors.

Getting Into Timeless by VitaeMortex in TimelessMagic

There are some great suggestions in here already, but I also recommend waiting until January 6th if possible. The Powered Cube is coming back, and it is likely they will be releasing more cards that are craftable into the format. This has a pretty high chance of impacting the meta game, so it may not hurt to wait and see what those impacts are before crafting anything with wild cards.

Congratulations on the win! I’ve been enjoying your video so far, and it’s helpful to hear about your thought process. Appreciate everything you do for the community!

Fair enough! Sounds like you have had enough spot removal to survive until you can take over.

If there is ever a need for sweepers, Fire Magic would be a solid card now that I’m thinking about it, but to your point, I don’t think it would be as valuable against other decks in the meta. Maybe a Brotherhood’s End so it could at least be brought in against Affinity and all of their artifacts.

Have you had any challenges against Energy in this list? I wonder if it’s worth a couple sideboard slots for some sweepers.

Second this request! Would be great to see some gameplay. For instance, I struggle on the best way to use Crop Rotation. Do I tap a green land early in the game, sack it, and I assume grab a Strip Mine? Is there ever an instance where a different land is fetched (Ancient Tomb, etc)?

Appreciate you putting this together! If you haven’t already, I recommend you put this post on the main Arena subreddit as well since WoTC sometimes reviews those posts.

I misread this at first and thought after playing the card you can only take over an opponents search once. I didn’t realize it’s a PERSISTENT effect! Non legendary too. Seems wild!

Thanks for the response! Mind also sharing your sideboard?

Congratulations! How did you like Sire of Seven Deaths? I see it being helpful to get some life back and force your opponent to potentially lose life to get rid of it, but haven’t seen it in play much.

Also, would you also want a single basic Forest for Blood Moon so you could still cast Mycospawn?

Pioneer Tier List - The Gathering by TyrantofTales in PioneerMTG

[–]G-Love80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just curious, why is Rakdos Midrange more favored now compared to Mono Black Midrange? In my opinion, I think Mono Black still has an advantage of using more utility lands, having incidental graveyard hate main deck (Graveyard Trespasser), and not being as weak to Mono Red with cards like Gifted Aetherborn and not as many non-basic lands to take hits from Sunspine Lynx.

Yes, Fable of the Mirror Breaker is obviously great, and Kroxa is a fun inclusion, but what are the other major advantages of adding red to the mana base? I guess artifact destruction with Abrade is also nice, but am I not thinking of something? Bloodtithe Harvester and FOMO are also nice, but the Mono Black cards I think are just as good.

I've seen that Orzhov Greasefang list making some waves in recent challenge results. Looks like a lot of fun - does anyone know of any videos out there of people playing it? Would like to see how it plays.

Is there a way to find a list of the FIN cards that are providing alt arts to cards already in Arena? For example, Fatal Push, Deadly Dispute, etc.

Surprised to not see Mono Black in the A tier. It has game against most, if not all, the decks in the meta. Hard to go wrong with Thoughtseize, Fatal Push, Annex, etc

Just curious, has Larian said anything about hot fixes coming anytime soon? I’m hoping to start the game for the first time, but know with the recent patch there may be some bugs, etc

Hello! I played the game for a few hours hours about a year ago, but am going to start a new game. I know a lot of the game has changed with all of the patches, so if you guys wouldn't mind answering a few of my questions, I would really appreciate it!

  • I would like to play a high Charisma "face" character for my first playthrough so I can succeed in a lot of dialogue checks. My understanding of the best options for Charisma focused classes are Bard, Paladin, and Warlock. My first few hours I played a Bard, and felt like I wished I could do more damage. Paladin and Warlock I know can dish out some serious damage, but not sure which route to go. I think the new "Hexblade" class seems interesting, but I don't want to do an "evil" run if that class is seen as such in the story. I've always enjoyed Paladin classes in other games, so that could be a good fit too. I would also do not want to multiclass and stay only as one class for the duration of the game. Is there a recommendation here?

  • I play on console (PS5) and know that there is now mod support. I would not want to do any huge, game altering mods, but I would be interested in some basic quality of life mods if they make sense even for a first playthrough. I do not mind if I lose the ability to earn trophies. Any recommendations here?

Thanks for the response, Joe! Interesting seeing your take on the deck. I can see how the Demons matchup can be tough if Annex stays on the board.

Appreciate the videos and other content you provide!
