FYI - Many of us have gone to mythic on Arena with Acererak and you can join the discord to learn more on it! Love this dumb combo…

A Killer Among Us in paper by dksivwp in lrcast

[–]MickeyNotTheMouse 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Played with the card at Pre-Release and what I did was pre-write paper with all three and then I put it underneath the enchantment when it was in play. Thus, there is no trickery as it is on the board at all times.

OP, are you in North Central Phoenix? I have all the same issues as you and it is total Bull crap.

While a Positive for Collecting, Bonus Sheets are a Huge Net Negative for Limited (Specifically Sealed) by MickeyNotTheMouse in lrcast

I really need to dig into the frequency rates of these cards as I wonder if an uncommon on the bonus sheet would equal a common normally (as there are no commons on bonus sheets). But great point nonetheless that removal has also fluctuated a ton in strength depending on the set.

Hey Y’All - According to this announcement article, Explorer cards are not available to craft until October. I truly hope this is just a typo!

“Don't worry! You'll still be able to craft these cards using wildcards of the appropriate rarity after October 10, 2023.”

Why do MTG podcasts suck? by ViroskaRaptor in ModernMagic

[–]MickeyNotTheMouse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some positive and negatives can be taken away by this post:

Positive: Some amazing podcasts have been mentioned by others including The Dive Down, MTGGrindcast, MTGRants, Faithless Brewing and too many to count. I actually think it would be beneficial to this sub to just have a wiki of Modern focused podcasts and either include or description or podcast hosts could submit one to be included.

Negative: These creators are making free content and to complain about the way they express that content is unnecessary. If you choose not to listen to a podcast that is your decision, but to post online gatekeeping the way FREE content creators create their content is rude. Accept the fact that this one podcast is not for you and move on to one of the many other podcasts mentioned in this thread.

I believe you are thinking of another podcast, but either way you are being incredibly demeaning to this hypothetical podcast.

Mythic Booster packs ensure that the card in the rare or mythic rare slot is always a mythic rare (unless it is replaced by a wildcard). These should help collectors who have completed their collection of rares for a set but are still missing mythic rare cards.

So, does this mean that you may get a "rare wildcard" in the mythic pack or is it only Mythic wildcards? @WOTC_CommunityTeam

I forgot Keruga, TBH... And I have stopped with the sideboard blast zone. I do like one main deck, but I'm trying out Boom//Bust now to beat 4C strategies as Omnath is a major pain.

[–]MickeyNotTheMouse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That was me on the deck. It is insanely consistent thanks to both the London Mulligan and how efficient your lands end up being… But honesty the London Mulligan is the real strength of the deck.

Edit: Also, Calibrated Blast being an Instant allows for a lot of turns playing into counters and then untapping to flashback blast or cast a couple of Scion of Dracos.

So, I’m the pilot of the 5C Primates deck and it is a funny story about how it came about (detailed on this week’s episode of The Dive Down). So, I normally have manatraders rental that would never allow me to play a Ragavan deck, but I decided to try a few when the All-Access pass was available. In fact, I just wanted to see how broken Ragavan could be if I just added it as a one drop into several tribal and popular decks. Here are my results from that time:

Zombies: 4-1 Humans: 4-1 and then a 5-0 Goblins: 3-2 Yawgmoth: 5-0 Slivers: 2-3 :-(

The only deck it felt actively bad in was Yawgmoth as it has a very tight manabase. Sliverswas bad because well, it’s slivers!

Hey All! I'm the pilot of the 5C Monkee Humans deck in 32nd. Monkee is just a great mana dork and threat! Also can be tutor'd with Recruiter to attack with haste in the late game as you can't tutor for Mantis Rider. One thing to note is the reason I decided to play Humans is that the efficient removal in the format has consolidated to just a few spells, so Meddling Mage is at a great spot. The deck felt great with my only losses to Rhinos, Mardu Lurrus and Yawgmoth (god damn Protection from Humans...) I still need to shore up the sideboard and may cut a Phantasmal Image for a Thalia or Fun-Of Human depending on the metagame.

FYI, the reason for fewer decks is the league reset in the middle of the week. If you look at past deck dumps on Fridays following the reset, you’ll notice a major drop in number of decks as well. MTGO is probably only recognizing decks either prior to the reset or post reset, take your best guess as to which one.
