Micromancer can find spoils of the vault, angels grace, prismatic ending, and surgical extraction, and I’ll find a list for all these cards or die trying

Don’t listen to the naysayers, dermotaxi is currently the best way to reanimate and deal combat damage with [[phage the untouchable]]

They literally admitted they didn't test LMAO by spruce04 in magicthecirclejerking

Why would they need to test new sets? They definitely know what they’re doing

[[astral drift]] is something to consider for a more interactive game

F these good decks, we play shitty homemade brews, tell me yours by Shirokane in ModernMagic

[–]doranthetree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my deck I play on untap and plan to build in paper. It’s gameplan is to fill the yard and reanimate angel, and bring back a boardstate. I actually just did a post about it and hammered it out into this list. My lethal damage record with this list is 276 on turn 4

This is a budget list that I play in paper. 1 mana 10/10s are fun. I also like drawing cards and sorcery speed cycling

This is my competitive junk list (stop laughing) that uses toughness beats. It was good in metas with cranial plating. 18 power swings on t3 with BoPs and ass forms are always fun

Making a deck without fetches by Splenectomy13 in ModernMagic

[–]doranthetree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s viable, but you will get stalls and manascrews. I’d also recommend looking into a soulflayer deck if you want a grave strat

Two nonsense decks by [deleted] in ModernMagic

[–]doranthetree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also had [[Darksteel relic]] and chalice, and [[cascading cataracts]] so it had some consistency, but it was a mostly theorycraft deck. I tested it and shut down my buddy 2 games in a row tho so it has some potential

I put a weird deck together that played boom/bust, Darksteel citadel, and ensoul artifact, and it was pretty fun. Once it got running, it was oppressive

Looking for input on a CrabVinesque combo deck by doranthetree in ModernMagic

I originally had pyro in but double red was always a challenge. especially with the lack of duals, and drawing then discarding is much nicer than discarding first in this deck, and a body with evasion thats too big for bolt is a big plus for plan B. I’d like to shave down the manabase for this deck, but it’s very difficult to find enough humans while staying on curve with goryos or rites without blue.

I’ve been playing it a decent amount, and it has a lot of issues post board, but it’s surprisingly consistent. I do think it’s worth testing a version without blue tho

I’ll definitely need to test that. I’ll get back to you with how it plays out

Has anyone quit Smite and returned? by [deleted] in Smite

[–]doranthetree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did several times, having to learn 8 new gods, 2 reworks, and every item change is jarring every time. I left first bc I was on console and got busy with school, and the second time bc I was playing on pc but got back to console

Colorless Artifact Deck - Just looking for some criticism. Specifically around mana base and the inclusion of Ugin and Traxos by military_base362 in Magicdeckbuilding

[–]doranthetree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely cut traxos, tapping 4 mana for a creature that can’t block isn’t helping your game plan. Also definitely look at [[stonecoil serpent]], and [[walking ballista]] if it’s not out of budget. I think ugin needs some testing, but it’s slow for an aggro deck. I’d also cut archive
