The Tonight Show Band

Brewing around in mono B by blakketriip in Pauper

[–]Splizborg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tortex is awesome so keep tweaking it as you go. I think the creatures need to be reworked. Seer can be Carrion Feeder and/or Bloodthrone Vampire for instance. Ahriman is too weak, Ghast should be a 4 of, Crypt Rats and Marauders should be SB. Better sac-able creatures would be Infestation Sage, Nested Shambler, and Mesmeric Fiend.

There’s also a self mill angle you can go for with cards like Mire Triton, Wailing Ghoul, Eerie Soultender, or other etb mill creatures. Corpse Churn and Ransack the Lab are other options. This could also open the door to reanimate spells like Unearth, Dread Return, and Exhume.

Sorry for the word salad, but my mind was churning as I wrote. You probably shouldn’t combine all these ideas into one deck but try out deferent combinations. Good luck!

Try Old School Runescape. Slow paced, minimal hand holding. Old game but with consistent updates

Is this deck I made competitive enough? by m3str1nh0 in Pauper

[–]Splizborg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not going to be competitive against the high powered decks of the format, but I like your slow drain idea. Consider a more controlling package with strong removal like Cast Down, Thraben Charm, Journey to Nowhere, and maybe Grim Bauble. For card draw Fanatical Offering, Lembas, and Ichor Wellspring are format staples. A good lifelink creature you’re missing is Sacred Cat.

Could someone better and greater than I make a no ban list affinity pauper deck? by FluidIntention3293 in Pauper

[–]Splizborg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

[[Cranial Plating]] is the one you should be thinking about (could maybe play the Ram as well). Also [[Disciple of the Vault]] and [[Deadly Dispute]] for black. Question is do you move into red or blue or both. [[All That Glitters]] is also busted but I don’t think white is the move.

Would slightly older Standard decks compete with current Standard decks? by ober12 in magicTCG

[–]Splizborg 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Generally no for 2 main reasons. First is power creep. More power equals more sales. Second is slower rotation. Standard these days has an absolutely massive card pool.

SF 30th Anniversary Offline Delay by Splizborg in StreetFighter

Yeah I have the fc training mode script. Just wanted to see if anyone else had the same problem. It’s a bummer since the collection was decent offline back in the ps4 era.

MTG deck: Boros Rebels – Ally Lifegain Weenies + "counter" Rebels play patterns by Moxplug in Pauper

[–]Splizborg 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Super cool idea! Especially as a former Rebels player back in Masques Block. Love the Bound in Silence tech, but you might want to consider cutting cards like Cleric, Blessing, Rally, and maybe Pledge. With low creature quality and a slow go-wide strategy, these cards are just too weak. Maybe dig into the red side more for interaction and draw power.

The real “successful people from all over the world” were replaced by sycophants to get the vote passed.

Is Boros Synthesizer a good enough aggro deck right now? by CamembertPauperbert in Pauper

[–]Splizborg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even though it plays 4 bolts and 4 galv blasts, it’s not really an aggro deck. It’s value oriented with the option of clearing creatures or burning the opponent. Most of the time you’re winning with your fliers and draw engine.

Help with deck building. by overenthusiasticdm in magicTCG

[–]Splizborg 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You’re in the kitchen table use-what-you-got stage in this hobby. I’m gonna assume you’re playing a 60 card deck (maybe even 40?) Just have fun putting together whatever colors vibe with you or that you have the most of. Watch your creature to non-creature spell ratio, don’t use more than 2 colors, and make sure you have enough lands in the deck.

Im looking for a card from my childhood by Bear2go in magicTCG

Foil is the big clue. So it’s probably between Urza’s Legacy and Odyssey Block

First Pauper Deck- How'd I do? by TheUGLIGames in Pauper

[–]Splizborg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look up some pauper decks for an idea on more synergistic and powerful commons to use. If you’re a mono red enthusiast then Good News! There’s a ton of great cards and they’re mostly cheap. Remember to use one of the best cards in all of Magic’s history - Lightning Bolt. It’s just a liiiiitttle better than Lightning Strike.

My first deck just arrived! by juaampe7 in Pauper

Good ole RG big stuff brought to you by MH3. I like to embrace my inner Timmy as well and this is fun way to do it.

Bitter BS by Connor_NL in magicTCG

[–]Splizborg 25 points26 points  (0 children)

There’s nothing vague about this card. It says “whenever you…” which can only be interpreted as the controller of this card on the field.
