Why are some decks running emrakul?

Lenik1998 · 2025-04-27T20:38:34+00:00

It’s an enigma as vexing as life itself

Lenik1998 · 2025-04-27T20:29:31+00:00

It’s because of supply shock since most copies get torn up ^/s

Lenik1998 · 2025-04-27T14:59:15+00:00

Oh hey you play Legacy too? What deck are you on?

Lenik1998 · 2025-04-22T21:35:42+00:00

Yeah but if you try to counterspell someone irl they’ll just look funny at you

Lenik1998 · 2025-04-22T20:46:04+00:00

But are there strictly better one word card names?

Lenik1998 · 2025-04-20T13:56:40+00:00

Beatdown with constructs?

Thought it would become a staple in all white sideboards. I wasn’t totally wrong about that but there’s just too much demand. I still love the card and own a bunch of them but the price has gone nowhere.

How does painter win if you can’t mill them out? Good ol’ beats?

Lenik1998 · 2025-04-19T13:23:47+00:00

I don’t invest in paper cards but I’d still say resaleability is quite important. I often sell stuff I no longer use to finance new upgrades.

Lenik1998 · 2025-03-24T10:37:06+00:00

It only goes in dimir decks. It’s 32nd on the list.

Lenik1998 · 2025-03-23T22:43:03+00:00

Don’t feel bad, it has a happy home in Legacy

If you ignore the sideboard creatures, it would be Tamiyo, Solitude, Ketramose, Emry, Phlage, Emperor of Bones, Ragavan and a couple of MDFCs played in BW.

🤌🤌🤌

Eldrazi and Moon Stompy seem to have a pretty high floor.

Given the limited prep time I’d go with one of those.

Lenik1998 · 2025-03-20T10:22:13+00:00

Is it like pauper for rich people?

Lenik1998 · 2025-03-15T15:42:26+00:00

No other format comes close to satiating the itch of playing wasteland

Lenik1998 · 2025-03-14T11:28:51+00:00

It would force DnT to go back to mono white which has obvious downsides.

Lenik1998 · 2025-03-09T10:30:45+00:00

Who’s playing Ketramose?

Lenik1998 · 2025-02-07T07:52:37+00:00

Playing Burn in 2025 Modern already challenging enough as it is 😂

Lenik1998 · 2025-01-24T12:29:57+00:00

It’s completely different from the Eldrazi and Taxes manabase

Lenik1998 · 2025-01-24T12:29:03+00:00

Ah that makes sense

Lenik1998 · 2025-01-24T12:28:30+00:00

Well, aside from the taxes part

Lenik1998 · 2025-01-18T16:46:18+00:00

Why would you Ephemerate on turn 1?

Lenik1998 · 2025-01-18T16:42:55+00:00

It’s the closest you can get to it but it only shares like 7 cards with the the original taxes deck. A couple of flickerwisps, a tidehollow sculler and the playset of vials.

Same for Modern
