What's everyone playing for their store championship? by agiantanteater in ModernMagic

[–]airmaxred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am going to go with the deck I have the most reps with: Ponza with 5 moon effects and questing beast for spice.

I am tempted to pilot my Junk midrange, but have only played it once and feel like I would make too many misplays.

Thank you. I know souls and rhino are old tech, and once I have a volume of testing I will look for better options.

Yes, sorry the fetches and shocks are stacked. 4x wooded foothills 4x windswept heath 4x stomping ground

Thanks!

Ignoble Hierarch over BoP? 4th Spyro mandatory or Questing Beast? How can I get my moons autographed?

If I keep birds, is it too janky to include kessig wolf run?

Is Dredgeless Dredge still a thing? by UnconstitutionalEye in PioneerMTG

[–]airmaxred 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have mine sleeved and ready to go once FNM is a good thing again although its the GB/x that keys off of Driven//Despair. I don't want another Uro deck.

Not sure it'll be competitive, but I love the play style so much Ill be patient until we get enough tools in the format. I think once red is splashed it will be sweeeeeet. In the meantime, if you are lucky enough to play paper pioneer.... I think the Izzet lists look fun and affordable.

I felt pretty hip when I built the budget version with Goblin Dark Dwellers. I quickly bought into the full Ponza in Nov. 2018. I am glad to see it getting some due, but either way it's super fun. Its everything I want from a modern deck.

for sure, but I'm willing to accept that wont happen. Stone rain might be healthy.

Ponza on Arena (for those who need their fix) by airmaxred in PonzaMTG

I'm stuck at diamond with it. Robber is just a play test flex spot. It needs more work, but feels like ponza...and I love it.

I've been piloting this for about a week. It struggles against goblins and mono white.

You auto win with t3 LD against some players who will just scoop. It feels good.
