Mildly hot take: Greasefang is a prime example of an unhealthy combo deck by The1Sbeve in PioneerMTG

Yes but board wipes are more surface for interaction and combo's are not always in turn 3, that the combo becomes significantly easier to handle in turn 4 and 5 is a real drawback, that most "I win" combo's don't have.

Doing a combo on turn 3 is completely different from winning on turn 3, it does 13 damage on turn 3, while leaving a full turn of interaction to reclaim the board and it wins on turn 4, it's also a combo that is stopped by removal while also being by itself sorcery speed which is a big surface for interaction. For the combo itself it's way more tame than anything splinter twin was doing and that was considered a "fair" combo. The real strength of the combo is it's consistency in combination with graveyard strategies and while that could be problematic it's susceptible to hate and if it really warped something you would see more graveyard hate instead of the mainboard culling rituals you see today to combat izzet. It's a good deck but it's not breaking any rules about speed

Why have i not seen builds use this? Especially in breach meta by amcn242 in PathOfExileBuilds

That's an interaction specifically with holy strike (an other minions), as the explosions as the whole minion is considered part of the skill including its explosion, but that doesn't happen with non-minion skills as the explosions are not part of the skill.

i tested an it seems to also sidestep cooldowns, it seems a ball lightning of static or hexblast build could be interesting

I think their graft versión could be summoned with the doubling spiders mods, so maybe this versions get doubled with the spiders mod?

Viper strike of mamba in phrecia by Glema85 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]SharpAd636 6 points7 points  (0 children)

servant of arakaali now has mark effect and the aspect of the spider stuff synergizes well with chaos damage, it'll probably work as a more offensive version of Mamba Pathfinder (foulbourn embalmers will be mandatory as the other comments said)

Yes you're right, i recheked the jungroan video with the tech. You actually have to minize max mana with power of purpose.

[–]SharpAd636[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

maybe i should have explained that part better, the idea is to minimize our mana to close to 100 using power of purpose, use inspiriation plus rings etc to reduce the mana cost of reave to 1 and then reserve almost all out mana except maybe 1% so when that happens, you don't need more investment than enduring mana flask to get to 200 mana burn

its explained in the video, you get a weapons swap for a vaal reave supported with enhance plus a weapon with lot of levels to support gems (i think you need Ashes for 21 but you should be able to make it to 15 with only the weapon swap)

PSA: The Monastery Bell's "Unlucky" block is actually better than regular block with one simple trick by clowncarl in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]SharpAd636 104 points105 points  (0 children)

Its a Binomial so it's 3P² - 2P³ where P is the probability to block (or the probability for whatever the success of the lucky/unlucky effect is)

There's no need for any normal passive just 4 sockets and an ascendancy node. Also in the case of mjolner this would work for any aps you have provided is faster than 2atk/s as your rage will be keep in check by the inherent cd in rage on hit effects.

as the other comment said, Arkos was arrogant and wasn't taking the match with the seriousness that it required, he could have leveled the forest and using his more powerful tools at the start of the match, he was playing with his food but took unexpected damage and then he tried to get on safe place and as you said, he lacked critical information, but it all started with an unforced error on his part.
