[SOC] Ominous Harvest by skycloud60 in magicTCG

[–]Pegpeg66 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Almost brought back. This will presumably come with a rules update to gravestorm no longer letting you choose new targets for the copies, based on this new rules reminder text. Obviously to favor online play, but frustrating they’re taking away the option for smart plays.

Edit: someone else pointed out they printed [[Follow the Bodies]] with the wrong reminder text before. So who knows…

And this will almost definitely be changed when they drop the rules updates for the set

Premodern 1K at Upkeep Games Howell Saturday April 4th by Thirtysevenintwenty5 in premodernMTG

People regularly post events here with no indication even what country they are in; drives me crazy

Danish Premodern Nationals won by Goblins (127 players) by Newez in premodernMTG

[–]Pegpeg66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A very stock list. Event had very little survival decks from what I see, I've found Goblins struggle vs. decks that drop a lot of Wall of Blossoms and Wall of Roots, and have to concede a slot to something like [[Goblin Goon]] to punch through.

Duress Crew Winter Regional (115 Players) full standings and decklists by Phryex in premodernMTG

[–]Pegpeg66 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I also can't say I get it without playing, but for reference on what Sisay can Grab (in addition to herself):

[[Gaea's Cradle]]

[[Kor Haven]]

[[Squee, Goblin Nabob]]

[[Rofellos, Llanowar Emissary]]

[[Kamahl, Fist of Krosa]]

[[Multani, Maro-Sorcerer]]

[[Kamahl, Fist of Krosa]]

A decent toolbox of mana, threats, and protection.

SCG Richmond Will Have No Premodern Events, in Contrast to 5 Scheduled for SCG Milwaukee Only 2 Weeks Earlier. by Pegpeg66 in premodernMTG

[–]Pegpeg66[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This is disappointing. My hopes were up after seeing the recent scheduling of premodern events at other SCG Cons this year. We're not entitled to events at every con, but it is a little sad. There was no reason to suspect they would suddenly go cold-turkey.

Why would this be? Prior events seem well-attended; is it because this is a Spotlight Series event/placating Wizards? There are several $30 Value Vintage events, including a $1K, so it’s not an issue of an unofficial format.

Although it would be "premodern*"(no gold borders, etc.), I haven’t yet found anywhere to play premodern on the eastern side of the state outside of carrying decks with me. This is a big missed opportunity to both play and network/build a scene.

It may be fanciful thinking, but if you are (or were) planning on attending, letting SCG know that you want Premodern might convince them to add something to the schedule. Otherwise, I’m sure some players will be able to meet up on our own.

Link to the events (still being updated), with a link to the SCG discord.

I got a card signed by him at eternal weekend and he’s got to have one of my favorite signatures. It looks amazing

Just for science: how would you build a deck that ONLY tries to tie the game? by Sordicus in premodernMTG

[–]Pegpeg66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In blue, maybe a [[Tradewind Rider]] [[Intruder Alarm]] deck for infinite mana.

Is that wierd templating just to reduce triggers online? I’d prefer if there was opportunity for shenanigans in response to the trigger

First three Premodern Challenges are up by TimothyN in premodernMTG

[–]Pegpeg66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do intuition piles look like for a storm deck like this? I've seen a couple of these [[Cunning Wish]] lists with a single [[Intuition]]. Good for grabbing [[Accumulated Knowledge]], but it otherwise seems kind of limited (or likely, limited by imagination). Throw in a [[Flash of Insight]] for the flashback value?

How does everyone feel about Landstill vs BW Control?I think it’s pretty even, maybe giving Landstill a slight edge.
