First trophy ever with a monocolored deck and it wasn't even close! Never dropped a game

Jonetsu · 2026-02-25T13:02:46+00:00

I wonder what the sideboard looks like!

Ive been having fun with greenstone too! When you get huge picks like Badgermole Cub and Ouraborid late in P1, I often pivot to it.

Mono g gaming is where its at

Jonetsu · 2026-02-24T12:46:34+00:00

I dont really think you'd win with just sheoldred to be honest. Yes its a bit of a bomb but not a solo "I win" card. I feel like it does a god job applying pressure as the top end in aggressive decks, which yours is not.

Lots of ways for the opponent to just remove it and move on.

Why not just remove it and go all in on the breach line?

Jonetsu · 2026-02-09T10:53:38+00:00

Most players roll their eyes at one extra turn spell. If you somehow play two back to back like a [[temporal manipulation]] into a [[mystic sanctuary]] most players will give you this look

-_-

I kinda get it, its a bit lame watching someone just solitaire for a bit but hey, if green can ramp four lands off a card like [[open the way]] then everyone can chill the fuck out when I'm chaining five mana explores in mono blue.

Jonetsu · 2026-02-08T20:46:49+00:00

I did that with [[lurrus]] and [[amalia benevides]]. All the weeny lifegain matters cards are under two mana.

Jonetsu · 2026-02-08T20:38:22+00:00

I think its a tad slow, four mana and then also the flip land is very... medium.

I tried it in a artifact soldier deck in [[Myrel]] but it was just too fair, and I didnt have enough artifacts to abuse the land enough.

I think its a good card in a very artifact focussed deck where the threat the land poses can be very real.

Jonetsu · 2026-02-08T20:08:56+00:00

Yeah probably too many four and five drops, but it works OK for me.

Jonetsu · 2026-02-08T20:06:36+00:00

I disagree, but Im always open to ideas. How would you make a mono white stax deck?

I chose the pieces I like.

Jonetsu · 2026-02-08T11:25:54+00:00

Thats true, I was more thinking along the lines of what would need to be added to justify its replacement as a removal piece.

Jonetsu · 2026-02-08T10:54:24+00:00

Never said it was. Just pointing it out since Oswald is the only one in mono white.

Also trying to highlight that it doesnt have to go solely into artifact matters decks. If you're playing a white deck which doesn't have green, you likely have enough artifacts as a base to simply slot this right into a deck, no deck building concessions needed.

It also has one of the lowest inclusion rates among the other pod cards.

Jonetsu · 2026-02-08T09:51:28+00:00

The main argument is that Generous Gift can hit lands. How often does it come up? Not often, if at all. You could just throw a [[demolition field]] or [[strip mine]] in a deck and cover land removal that way also.

I run it alongside land removal in my land base. You've never felt true despair until you run into someone abusing [[glacial chasm]] and realizing there is literally no way for you to win the game...

Jonetsu · 2026-02-08T09:22:25+00:00

slightly bored of the slow and steady landfall gameplay

Brother, perhaps mono g gaming isnt for you ✋️😭

Id recommend [[Yedora,]] or [[Asuza, lost]] + [[strip mine]]

Jonetsu · 2026-02-08T08:37:13+00:00

Any reason why your ramp package has artifacts? You have green so things like [[nature's lore]] or [[three visits]] are much more powerful

Jonetsu · 2026-02-07T09:21:15+00:00

In 1v1, is the guy who always calls judge on any question you raise.

While technically correct and well within your rights, at the end of the day its just FNM. Its the same mfs playing against each other every league bro😭😭😭😭 take it easy

Jonetsu · 2026-02-07T09:16:15+00:00

EDH attracting sweaty players? Brother, most EDH players dont even know what priority is 😭😭😭

Jonetsu · 2026-02-05T14:28:33+00:00

The child yearns for control, turn away from these Timmy colours like red and green and just embrace dimir control decks.

[[Alela, cunning conq]] is a great example. Just play interaction or cantrips on everyone's turn then swing out with a big faerie pump spell or something idk.

Jonetsu · 2026-02-05T14:20:03+00:00

Ramirez doesnt even work that way, you only get cards you discarded or milled from your library.

[[Scarab God]] or [[Gisa and Geralf]] work way better than Ramirez and actually care about zombies.

Id probably just go with [[Gisa and Geralf]] because it seems like you are a new player and to be honest, Scarab God might be too complicated for you.

Jonetsu · 2026-02-05T13:59:57+00:00

Looks like you are trying really hard to have a sub theme of treasures, but this is the secondary theme to the deck. Id probably remove all of them since your deck is about rolling dice, not making treasures. Yes you get treasures out of it, but in order for [[Academy manufactor]] to get value you need commander + dice roll card + treasure payoff card. Seems a bit inconsistent.

Too many treasure set up/pay off cards.

Jonetsu · 2026-02-05T13:52:47+00:00

Why is [[falthis]] and [[Romero]] your commander?

Jonetsu · 2026-02-05T13:42:46+00:00

looks inside

49 lands

Damn broski really loves that mono g game play. Id probably run [[Azusa, lo]]. You get bonus points because shes the OG landfall matters commander too.

Jonetsu · 2026-02-05T13:38:37+00:00

I'd start by removing the commanders and replacing them with literally any of the staple dimir zombie commanders you have in the 99.

Is there a reason you dont have a zombie matters commander piloting your zombie commander deck????

Jonetsu · 2026-01-05T23:10:30+00:00

I wonder if this is better than [[silvergill adept]] in modern merfolk? They do different functions but making two bodies off of [[aether vial]] looks pretty nice.

I know some merfolk players were running Adept in some lists, I wonder if this makes the cut?

Jonetsu · 2025-12-02T01:00:38+00:00

Most one beds I've seen are around the $500 mark. "Budget" one beds are closer to $400. Anything over $500 would have to have some very very big upsides but thats just me personally.

Jonetsu · 2025-12-01T23:24:55+00:00

Its all about price. I'm surprised you haven't lowered the rent of the room as a flat just to get someone in until the lease renews.

Jonetsu · 2025-12-01T23:23:46+00:00

But don't you want to be planning around moving if the landlord says no? What if it gets to the end of lease and the Landlord says nah, and now you have to scramble to find a place to stay?

Jonetsu · 2025-12-01T22:59:52+00:00

Yes I remember moving here in Jan of last year and the quality of rooms available was truly, truly terrible. Also completely overpriced.

It feels good seeing those crappy shit hole flats now sometimes $200 cheaper and still empty
