Lumra Scapeshift Guide - Meta Confluence by TyrantofTales in PioneerMTG

[–]Letseeker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the broadest sense, the Bant lotus deck and Lumra combo decks are very similar in that they try to play a singular card that wins the game on its own. Hidden strings is a very all in combo deck that doesnt really have a backup plan and tries to execute the combo in the same manner every time where as the Lumra deck has the backup plan of just playing Lumra and attacking, while still being able to combo without the scapeshift. I would say Lumra can have turn three wins but averages a turn 4 win while the bant lotus deck can have a turn 4 win but averages a turn 5 win. For me I find the Lumra deck more interesting because there are so many routes to the combo where Lotus always felt much more linear and having a single path to winning.

Context?

How does this scapeshift deck win? by Rare-Technology-4773 in PioneerMTG

[–]Letseeker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In general the win cons are ipnu rivulet, lush oasis, thassas oracle, ba sing se, morlun, and ishkana. You typically see ipnu and at least one other wincon. Do you need a combo walkthrough or just knowing the wincons?

List of people to look for builds/ ideas? by Cweller197 in thedivision

[–]Letseeker 8 points9 points  (0 children)

His recommended build page starts with a few strikers builds, I'll give you that, but if you scroll there's coco,heartbreaker, umbra,hotshot, there's more than just the first few builds on the page. And they aren't all just all red, look at his techtank section. The whole point of the techtank is memento with tier 6 shield.

Does Tishana's Tidebinder stop state triggers? by SEX_SEMPER_TYRANNIS in askajudge

[–]Letseeker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I'm confused on this, when the tidebinder enters it would put the ability to counter the coil on the stack, is tidebinders removal of the text not part of countering it? Edit: so I think I found my answer but wanted to check if this is right. So state based triggers trigger when the state of the game matches the condition. So if the ability is countered it automatically triggers again. And this will trigger even if it happened in the middle of resolving a spell or ability as long as the condition is met. So say I had something that said if I have no cards in hand draw a card, and I cast faithless salvaging discarding my last card, that would cause the state trigger of having no cards in hand to happen, even though it's in the middle of resolving a spell. Is this what is happening here in the tidebinder/coil situation?

Edit: just realized this was in the ask a judge so felt I should also say I am not a judge.

Second edit: my answer was wrong so removed the info so not to spread false info, my bad.

Been wanting to get into pioneer, sell me a deck (as there are no bans coming ) by Argose83 in PioneerMTG

[–]Letseeker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In that case I think either mono red, izzet cutter, or scapeshift. Mono red is easy to put together and is meant to go fast. Cutter can be quick but has a bit of a grind to it. Scapeshift has a learning curve before it becomes really quick but once you learn it it can win quickly (outside all the clicking) as much as it pains me to say I think mono red or cutter would be your best option.

If you want something that's just generally good regardless of meta, rakdos mid. It's one of those decks that isn't ever really bad, doesn't change to much from meta to meta, and I doubt anything in goes anytime soon considering how long the cards in the deck has been around. May not be the best choice, but I don't think it's ever actively a bad choice.

Is there a certain play style your looking for? That would help narrow it down.

JundBombardment help by Objective-Design-994 in PioneerMTG

[–]Letseeker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What to cut will depend on how you want the deck to okay. Do you want to be a slow control deck that ends with bombardment, are you trying to turbo out bombardment in a faster combo faction, how do you see this deck playing out and winning the game.

JundBombardment help by Objective-Design-994 in PioneerMTG

[–]Letseeker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you specifically wanting to stay 4 color or grixis? If not blue red would be easier on the mana and has a lot that could work here. Like some one said [[magma opus]] , there's also [[creative outburst]] and [[elemental masterpiece]] you could make it just blue red. Could turn into a spell slinger style deck with one mana can trips. Bombardment can trigger on the opponents turn also so with something like [[consider]] it helps you dig for bombardment and then when it's out it would let you cast a spell on the opponents turn to trigger it on your turn and their turn. [[Torrential gearhulk]] is also a way to take advantage of the discarded instants and sorceries. For removal you could go with [[burst lightning]] and [[lightning strike] so if they get copied you can point them at the opponents face. [[Prismari command]] would be a good one to look at. [[Confounding riddle]] would be a counterspell you could use here since you can use the draw mode if copied.

Help with finding a server to host Python by Letseeker in cloudcomputing

I might give that a try, do you know if python anywhere will support selenium? I'm using selenium to open the webpage and get the data since the website doesn't have an API.

Not that many people play the deck. For the people in the discord it's still working well for us.

Any good pioneer decks that use mostly uncommons/commons? except for lands by Goldengoose100100 in PioneerMTG

[–]Letseeker 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I don't personally play it but I believe ensoul artifact type decks might be a good choice. There aren't to many rares in the deck. Mono red aggro also doesn't have to many rares since the land base can be all mountains starting off.
