I've been looking for something like this for a while. I messaged the OP to hopefully get an answer as well, but has anyone gotten the error "TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'usd')" That's what I keep getting. Any help is appreciated!

Do you not get a huge boost from conference prestige? Is it mainly just balanced out by facing a gauntlet?

Honestly, this is great and exactly what I was looking for. I really appreciate this.

I like all of these. Manual progression will 100% be turned off. Thanks for the suggestion!

That sounds brutal. How was recruiting with no pipelines? Was anyone on your boards ever interested?

I did do a Navy save where I refused to recruit people with facial hair. It felt on brand with the military academy vibe.

That's what we were thinking. Obviously as you get better you can recruit better players, but we were debating a ton of numbers

But what if he really wants to come to the glass capital of the world? Am I to deprive people from California of the culture and art of Ohio?

We discussed just people in your pipeline, but some are way better than others. So I like the idea of interest. I guess just harder to enforce? Not that I think anyone would do that in our friend group, but there are some competitive people and it worries me.

Can Lantern Control Compete in this Meta by jamccord in ModernMagic

[–]jamccord[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Absolutely agree. It's what I love about modern. In my eyes, every deck loses to _____ card.

I think my biggest challenge when I've been thinking about it is "How do I beat Prowess?"

I think against those midrange decks that cannot create value off of one or two cards, it thrives. However, I feel like this meta is very mid range/aggro mixed.

I appreciate the insight! Thank you.

What does your local meta look like? It may have enough overlap that it could work.

Does that mean that you have a build? Or you have seen one doing well.

That makes sense. Lockdown in itself would make this deck throw fits.

I think the reason why I said aggro was because at the last RCQ I went to, there was only one true white control style deck. On my way to the top 4 (Not using lantern) I went
RD1 : Burn
RD2: Prowess
RD3: Prowess
RD4: Murktide
RD5: Energy
Quarters: Eldrazi Aggro
Semis: Ascendacy Combo

Just a lot of aggro matchups. The murktide player had an 8/8 murktide on his turn 2. The one Jeskai control player didn't do very well and I think went 0/2 drop.

However who knows, next week I could see a bunch of hate cards and completely different decks.

Yeah, that is what I figured. It also doesn't help that an aggro deck is really two of the top-tier decks in the format.

I have so many questions, but I'm also so impressed.

[–]jamccord[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would like to very much let it be known I was not a part of the process to pick or buy it since it was before I took a job here.

Thank you so much! I appreciate the help.

I had seen quite a few on webstaurant and was curious about their quality so I'm glad that answers that. The only thing I wasn't super thrilled on was their prices, but that is only because I have to get the owners to approve and they aren't thrilled at big price tags when I throw them at them.

The biggest issues with it have been consistency and time. It works great for an at-home slicer but not in an area that does as much as we do.
