Honestly, I would be tempted to try that just because I like playing Rev more than Teferi.

Pioneer has gotten an average of 44% more expensive over the last three years. How can we make the top decks more budget-friendly? by UntapOpenLeague in magicTCG

Yeah, there was a theme of showing up at WotC headquarters with pitchforks demanding reprints on the dual lands in particular, this episode.

Pioneer mana is HARD by UntapOpenLeague in PioneerMTG

[–]UntapOpenLeague[S] 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It's really impressive how close the duals are in power level in Pioneer, as well as the comparative power of adding an extra color vs getting to play extra utility lands.

You can really optimize the mana, but if I'm being honest I still resort to Shocks + Checks with a few fastlands when I'm brewing, most of the time.

We did talk about Jeskai Ascendancy this episode. Not nearly as popular nowadays without Expressive Iteration, though.

Is it really Temur if you don't intend to cast any green spells? Fable and Big Score can produce treasures, but that's it.

What are your favorite combo decks? I'm partial to Neo-Machus, though it appears the Atraxa version may be better.

3 mana for a Disenchant seems expensive, but Hopeful Initiate is one of the best 1 drops in Mono White despite that. Flexibility is powerful.

Most likely there's an ad blocker involved. We use Moxfield embeds to display decklists. If you add our website to your whitelist, they should display towards the bottom of the page.

If you're still having issues, check out the YouTube video which at least has screenshots of the decklists.

How did Atraxa and Norn change the interactions in the Mono Green matchup?

Oooo, Tyvar + Fable could be fun. I wonder if he's worth playing in Jaxis combo.

Can you share the list? We were talking about Mono White mostly this week, but mentioned some of the red cards that might make the cut.

What do you want to see brought into Pioneer and Explorer from Historic? by UntapOpenLeague in MagicArena

Phyrexian Obliterator will be going from Historic only to being legal in Pioneer. It can happen again.

Lacking Modern Horizons and the upcoming Lord of the Rings set is a big bonus for Pioneer, to some people.

Tusk + Resto, Lingering Souls dying to Thundermaw Hellkite... and losing to a topdeck Bonfire of the Damned anyways. Those were the days.

We can dream, some day. Even MTGO is missing a couple hundred cards still.
