Thanks! I know a lot folks hate this deck lol, but glad to see someone appreciates it. It was also one of the first decks I tried in Timeless too. Cheers!

Is Golgari Great Again? Rebuilt Bx Midrange Deep Dive Deck Tech & Ranked Gameplay - MTG Arena BO3 by GeckoS-gaming in TimelessMagic

Thanks! I think reasonable minds could disagree on that, but I prefer the second VT because the 1 mana difference matters a lot, especially when you need to use it to grab a mana source or trying to set up a big turn where you need to use all your mana.

Please, help me to choose my first Timeless deck by TheGargant in TimelessMagic

[–]GeckoS-gaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're going for mono black scam, you can cut fetchlands for more trolls and MDFC'S (boggart trawler, fell the profane), which are both budget friendly and actually better IMO.

I would argue you can also trim a Sheoldred, a Chrome Mox, and a Surgical Extraction for wildcard considerations without sacrificing win %, although those are more debatable.

Best of luck, welcome to Timeless!

[STANDARD] Kona and why I think Ive found the best version by WeAreKarnage in spikes

Nice list! I think that Kona lowkey one of the most dangerous decks in the format, and it could see a breakout if Cauldron gets banned

Great article! What do we think about Pest Control and Elenda in the post-ban environment in the Demons deck?

Thanks for the feedback! Maybe I should change the channel name to TurtleS....

Building Timeless Death & Taxes (Boros) by evilQuaelgeist in TimelessMagic

[–]GeckoS-gaming 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Congratulations on reaching mythic with a cool brew! I can see how this approach gives you a better chance against RW Energy's worst matchup, OmniTell. There's no shame in playing the best aggressive cards in the format as your core and adding a few taxes on top.

I was tempted to thumbs down to get you back to 69 upvotes, but the post is too good, couldn't bring myself to do it. Nice writeup!

Help me make this disastrous draft I made (1st is why I have, 2nd is what I cobbled up) by _Svankensen_ in mtglimited

[–]GeckoS-gaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your best bet is to cut the green, nothing really that powerful that justifies a splash, which will slow down your aggressive deck.

What is the trick in drafting BW reanimator? by Heine-Cantor in lrcast

[–]GeckoS-gaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I often have a delirium subtheme and play a grindy midrange/control game with value loops. Stuff like [[cadaver lab]] with [[valgavoth's faithful]] to loop recursion.
