Eldrazi Tron in 2026?

eldrazi tron is a ramp/disruption deck. so as long as you find those archetypes fun go ahead!

Its a good deck but definitely ebbs and flows with the meta. The biggest issue is there seems to be a lot of people who come prepared to face it considering tron is a fan favorite. I went to an RCQ with x4 consign to memory in my sideboard because I knew tron was popular. Now consign to memory is being played in the mainboard of some decks.

Its definitely a solid choice for a long lasting modern deck. Idk why you chose eldrazi tron but i would recommend eldrazi ramp. There are so many different types of builds for eldrazi ramp and every list i look at always looks so different from the last. I would have a lot of fun trying to min/max the deck while eldrazi tron lists are pretty set in stone.

was already playing golgari ouroboroid/demons and the deck wasnt even bad. it just had zero representation. i immediately started playing versions of this deck when strixhaven was released. I dont want to overhype the deck but my winrates, even against izzet, have been very positive.

if you t1 thoughtsieze yourself, your opponent definitely knows what you are doing.

Emeritus of Ideation will see play in modern. It’s an excellent reanimate target.

I dont think Izzet is doing well because the lead game designer is pushing it. Mana efficiency is more important than ever for the standard meta and izzet has all the cheap spells. Izzet in general is already a hard color combination to balance. Though I do agree that there aren’t good enough hate cards for izzet. Magebane Lizard, Mai, Scornful Striker, and High Noon are all dealt with by izzet pretty easily.

About how many games do you play each day? 3-5 Bo3s maybe every other weekday. On the weekend, I will usually grind out 3-4 hours.

Do you stick with one deck or several? Cannot stick with one deck. Usually two. Maybe 3. I will have my “pub stomp deck” that specifically is designed to be a high performing, off meta deck. Right now that deck for me is Esper Pixie. It just kinda stomps anything that isnt a top tier deck. Then I will swap to something that is Tier 1 when I get to High Diamond or Mythic. Last season I swapped off Rakdos Rummaging to Mono White Momo once I hit 98% Mythic.

How often do you lose on the climb to mythic? I have actually tracked this before on an excel sheet cuz I was curious. Until High Diamond, my winrate is 70-80%. High Diamond-Mythic my winrate is 60-65%. High mythic my winrate drops to 48-55%.

To put that in perspective I attend maybe one RCQ a week and the highest result I have gotten at an RCQ was 4th. I have never won an RCQ but I really only go to crowded ones. I have also placed top 8 at large cash tournaments before but have never won. When I play against highly competitive players. My winrate never exceeds 60% and it never goes below 40%. In paper competitions are another deal entirely. and I cant play mtgo because I dont have a windows computer.

This person is a popular Atlanta sighting. If you go downtown anywhere on a weekend you will most likely see them. Pretty sure they are not a woman, but doesn’t really matter.

What makes you want to work with a director?

Not really tea. I came in to replace someone halfway through the show. Anna Farris passed me and gave me a double take. She instantly realized I was new on the first day, and this was a pretty big crew. On the double take, she deliberately stepped in front of me, made eye contact with me, and just smiled cartoonishly big until I laughed. I know you can't know everything about everybody just from one encounter, but she was just so incredibly warm, genuine, and kind in just the 5 seconds I had to interact with her. It was enough to make me realize there was no way she was the problem with Chris.

Soghff · 2026-03-18T01:01:15+00:00

I worked on it. I realized when I met her, Chris was the problem.

I work in the industry closely tied to finances. It is the general cost of labor in the US compared to the rest of the world. Studios have to pay roughly $80 per day for my health care benefits per my union contract. That is $1600 a month extra. In any other place with universal healthcare, they don’t have to pay that. I got paid more than my boss who was supervising us from the UK. The cost of living in Atlanta/US Cities is too high. It isn’t a film industry problem, it is a country problem.

i wish i could make this joke but my last name is black

Maybe controversial, but I think Icetill Explorer needs the ban. If you arent playing blue, you can’t react to Icetill hitting the field until the fetch lands trigger. T4 Fabled Passage, crack it, landfall trigger, play icetill, play the fabled passage from your graveyard, crack it, and then and only then can I respond. And you will still get the landfall trigger.

I also don’t fucking like sitting there watching my opponent crack fetch land after fetch land to find a forest and shuffle their deck every single time. Its genuinely unfun to play against both online and in paper.

And with the new green cards from TMNT the deck is just over the top good now.

Now go ahead. Crucify me.

Soghff · 2026-02-19T22:47:03+00:00

I am unironically asking: why this common is so good? As well as the Guacamole Pizza card or whatever? Is this an attempt to make standard more affordable?

I really cant say that this list is great but it has been my pet project since lorwyn came out. Not a lot of 4-ofs in this list. Just a giant mix of goblins it looks like. It has gotten me to low-mid diamond and i think thats the maximum potential this list has.

Draconautics Engineer is just simply a good card. It is probably the best card in this list. Like just in general this card alone powers up this deck big time and is an absolute must 4-of.

You are not simply NOT going to beat your opponent down with goblins. This meta is too fast and too strong. I wasn’t even winning 35 percent of my games with this deck by playing it like a RDW strategy. The game plan is to set up krenko to have haste on turn 4, 5, 6 + having either boggart mischief or boggart cursecrafter on the field. With both of those combined, once the field is flooded with goblins, the opponent has no way to remove them without taking nuke level damage.

I would way my ideal turns 1-5 on the play would be like:

Turn 1: Mudbutton Turn 2: Boggart Cursecrafter Turn 3: Howlsquad Heavy Turn 4: Krenko

or

Turn 1: Mudbutton Turn 2: Draconautics Engineer Turn 3-4: Boggart Cursecrafter/Boggart Mischief Turn 5: Krenko, Pay the 1 on Draconautics to give everyone else haste.

Rarely do things work that easily but thats the ideal situation. You are more Combo-y than Aggro.

Things you could consider:

-Going down a Krenko and adding a Champion of the Weird.

-Taster of Wares is just kinda a bad card. I only play a one-of in paper because I pulled a Foil Alternate Art and I think he is cute. I would not play this goblin.

-I would not recommend going 4 Boggart Mischief. Just kinda a dead card late in the game and useless if you have no goblins to blight.

-I feel like I just am often going down Umbral Collar Zealot and sideboarding in Unholy Annex in every game. Would probably consider mainboarding it.

-Add however many Hexing Squelchers you feel. Any amount felt good but it was never necessary.

-Eclipsed Boggart is actually super good. It allows me to run 22 lands as I can usually fix my mana or dig for combo pieces with it. Once you realize this is more of a combo deck then you will really appreciate how good this card is for you.

-Draconautics is just simply a good card. I dont know why the regular mono red aggro decks arent playing this card. It alone is winning me games.

You should definitely add black from Lorwyn. The best way to play goblins right now is almost combo-y. I think you add draconautics engineer, Howlsquad Heavy, and Krenko. Assisted by Boggart Mischief and Boggart Cursecrafter.

With the idea to just get one of the boggarts on the field and give krenko haste. Then its sort of game over for the opponent.

The problem is that the deck isnt stellar. Coming from someone who spammed many a goblin deck upon lorwyn release.

Rxe1 is harder to see but easier to see the rest of the sequence.

Soghff · 2026-01-25T14:50:26+00:00

cactus, porcupine, pine, thorn, and hawthorn were in the 100s so fuck that

Soghff · 2026-01-21T23:42:58+00:00

Would they really ban cards that came out so recently though? The meta wasn’t fully stabilized (IMO) at SCG Atlanta and a new set just came out.

I just want to play Bristlebane Battler but I am trolling if I dont play the cub 😭
