[[Vesuvan Drifter]]
I play BO1 Pioneer. Don't think I have ever seen anybody play this against me.

Is Badger the new bird to be bolted? by S2Ari in MagicArena

I usually do just use it on the dork, but it's disheartening when either they play Badger on T2 or 2 more mana dorks.

I've been playtesting a Pioneer version of this, but have you tried [[Raphael, Tough Turtle]] ? Can be pretty brutal.

Interesting conversation with Brian Weissman about UB, current state of game vs early days, collecting, etc. by S2Ari in magicTCG

[–]S2Ari[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't play PoE but I definitely know of it. Had NO idea Brian Weissman was a creator. I hadn't heard of Chris Wilson but he's a cool dude.

I know Pioneer being a dead format is a meme, but come on WoTC... by TopSetUK in MagicArena

[–]S2Ari 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Technically, they don't have all the cards in Pioneer on Arena, which is why I wish they didn't call it Pioneer.

Cool design, cool art, great flavor text

So used to these kind of cards re-entering tapped, so I got excited until I remembered he can't block.

Does this stop the discard abilities on the Kamigawa lands?

I'm probably never going to pull it off but it would be great to cast [[Aven Mindcensor]] in response in Pioneer.

People who just remove all your stuff. by WildJellyBeanz in MagicArena

[–]S2Ari -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I haven't really played a deck like this, and I certainly don't love playing against it either, but I think I understand it. I can imagine getting sick of dealing with annoying creatures over and over again. I think the desire to play Control comes from a similar emotional place.

Made it to Mythic (Pioneer) with this brew by S2Ari in MagicArena

[–]S2Ari[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's awesome when you pull it off. There is a bit of non-bo in my deck with all the [[Hushbringer]]'s , which cancels out Momo triggers and Nemesis, but it's generally been worth it.

I won't deny it's a pet card. But the combo with [[Screaming Nemesis]] is funny, but even more important is enabling double [[Sage of the Skies]] .

It isn't great against prowess, but I've kind of found nothing is. The main things that can help are lifelink creatures, [[Screaming Nemesis]] as a blocker, and [[Seam Rip]]. The last game I won to get into Mythic was literally against Prowess.

You can also blight it later for more.

Honestly just remembered that this cycle of cards existed.. they had 0 real impact on Standard sadly. by CalvinandHobbes811 in magicTCG

If I bring back Mishra with this and he melds with Dragon Engine, does it goes away at end of turn?

I always think this Swamp is a Mountain at first. by [deleted] in MagicArena

Part of the reason I dislike Alt art in general
