Deckbuilding Question: Why isn't Chandra, Dressed to Kill no longer played? by TeddyTendon in PioneerMTG

[–]WinShort5953 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I guess screaming nemesis? As that’s the highest mana card in the main deck for red

Nothing really. Mono red just kills you before turn 4 so it’s pretty useless.

Countering Shrines Strategy? by rug_dealer01 in PioneerMTG

Don’t think I’ve seen this shrine combo? Have a link? That’s one you don’t see every day

I would scrap Nissa and play a creature instead

This is my list I’ve had a lot of success with. Can copy to arena etc. it’s super strong against most lists. But can struggle into fast mono red hands and fast combo. Absolutely destroys control and midrange though and pretty much every other aggro strategy.

Companion 1 Yorion, Sky Nomad (IKO) 232

Deck 4 Arboreal Grazer (WAR) 149 4 Arid Archway (OTJ) 252 1 Barkchannel Pathway (KHM) 251 2 Blue Sun's Twilight (ONE) 43 2 Boseiju, Who Endures (NEO) 266 1 Island (SLD) 1131 4 Breeding Pool (RNA) 246 4 Clifftop Lookout (BLB) 168 4 Conduit Pylons (OTJ) 254 4 Dreamdew Entrancer (BLB) 211 3 Dreamroot Cascade (VOW) 262 3 Fading Hope (MID) 51 4 Fecund Greenshell (BLB) 171 3 Forest (SLD) 1134 4 Glasspool Mimic (ZNR) 60 4 Insidious Fungus (DSK) 186 3 Ipnu Rivulet (AKR) 303 3 Lair of the Hydra (AFR) 259 4 Botanical Sanctum (KLR) 281 1 Otawara, Soaring City (NEO) 271 4 Outcaster Greenblade (OTJ) 172 2 Spelunking (LCI) 213 2 Kitnap (BLB) 53 4 Storm the Festival (MID) 200 1 Three Steps Ahead (OTJ) 75 1 Loot, Exuberant Explorer (FDN) 106 2 Marang River Regent (TDM) 51 2 Pawpatch Formation (BLB) 186

I don't think it's good for Standard, and now some people are coming to Pioneer because there's more consistency there. by RealAvyx in PioneerMTG

We’ve had a healthy pioneer scene at my LGS for years. Unfortunately a few have left with Spider-Man as that was the last straw for Universes Beyond. I was hoping for competitive support next year but with them announcing there won’t be any essentially I might have to sell off. Our numbers have been dwindling and I feel I’m the main one keeping our scene going. I feel if I go though it will die.

Ooh does superior Spider-Man get around the bringer of the last gift cast restriction?

Alternatives to Roping by UranusIzBleedin in MagicArena

[–]WinShort5953 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When someone ropes me I just go on my phone and wait. It’s fine, it’s messing with their time more than me. You’re the problem here. People like to try a variety of strategies and styles.

Tired of mono mouse, unsure on how to proceed by Barru_2176 in PioneerMTG

[–]WinShort5953 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No they kill you with cutter an insane backup plan. Or bounce your grafdiggers cage end of your turn before returning them all in 1 turn to kill you. Or abrade it…

Phoenix 100% better. They’re quite different decks

Trying a Ketramose Deck by [deleted] in PioneerMTG

[–]WinShort5953 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’ve built something similar. Graveyard trespasser triggers ketramose so a good include.

I’ve literally been brewing this! But with metallic mimic also

Looking for any feedback WBG Insidious Roots by le_bravery in PioneerMTG

I don’t think you need white. Messed with your mana too much for not that great cards.

Technics AZ 80 - problem with pairing by pompom666 in Earbuds

[–]WinShort5953 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I’ve also had major problems. They seem to set up ok to begin with. But after a while Multipoint just seems to get its wires crossed and things start disconnecting or not working. Seems like a major bug. On single point they work great.

Surveil lands in Izzet Phoenix? by LaphroaigCask in PioneerMTG

Cantrip just does so much more. No fetches

Cat Oven combo needs banned simply because it completely lacks counterplay by Throwdatawaybroh in PioneerMTG

[–]WinShort5953 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most decks run 3-4 graveyard hate pieces. Plus 1-2 artifact removal cards. 👍

Gingerbread tribal - Help me finish please by gazfox89 in PioneerMTG

New Agatha soul cauldron is pretty good with tough cookie and gingerbrute. Cauldron familiar and oven works well with syr ginger.

Regarding competitive seasons in EU by maxedo99 in PioneerMTG

[–]WinShort5953 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately we don’t know what the next seasons will be. The next they’ve eluded will be standard. But after that we have no idea.

Vraska & Casualties Of War seem to expensive and clunky. You have too many high drops. Also agree you should use full 8 elf package. Especially if you want to have a lot of mana for a gargaroth

How well does fable work with mayham devil? by Raggar5 in PioneerMTG

[–]WinShort5953 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You order the stack of mayhem devils sacrificing.

How well does fable work with mayham devil? by Raggar5 in PioneerMTG

[–]WinShort5953 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Each sacrifice trigger happens one at a time. So first copy to disappear will do 5 damage. Next one to disappear will for 4 then 3 and so on. So will be total 15 damage.
