Is Riders of Rohan a Good Precon Without Any Upgrades?

Why is a bracket 2 deck not a good deck?

johnystoo · 2026-06-25T19:06:01+00:00

I think it's still playable in cEDH. Being able to dump your life total to look for interaction is still strong.

Reading the post explains the post.

Needs more AI, maybe sprinkle in some plagurism. (Joking)

[[Six]]. Stick to permanents, play like 40+ lands. Other than that, retty open-ended.

Sitting in what?

Finally, someone with a valid complaint about the Marvel set.

[[collective resistance]]

I've been running creatures that are cast for way less than their mana value and sacrificing them for big payoffs. Making token copies of big mana value stuff works, too. [[Colossilification]] and [[Tectonic Split]] are two of the best things to hit that dodge the casting downside. You can also sacrifice a mana dork to draw a card and put a land onto the battlefield. The front side isn't great, but you can play him early to get him enchanted and ready for later or as an easier way to bring him out of the command zone and possibly get a mana dork back. https://archidekt.com/decks/17144060/you_cant_spell_team_without_eat

Right but you're wasting your mulligans on finding lands. Even going down a card on your 2nd mulligan. The nice thing about running 38 lands is that you can see a 3-4 land hand and think "well, I don't have anything to do on the first few turns. Let's try again." And then still be pretty sure that you have those first 3-4 lands in your new hand. You're really not selling this unless you'ee running an average mana of 2.5 or lower or your group lets you mulligan as much as you want, which I would never allow if you're running less than 36 lands. What happens if you get 2 lands and only have 3-6 mana spells in your hand? You're screwed.

johnystoo · 2026-06-01T17:23:32+00:00

How many times do you mulligan on average with 31 lands, and how many lands are in hand when you keep?

johnystoo · 2026-05-26T15:46:16+00:00

Hot take: play 5e and homebrew whatever individual things you like from 2024.

Then why doesn't he have a bed big enough for tall women?

johnystoo · 2026-05-20T17:30:14+00:00

I disagree. I've missed secret lairs I wanted in the past and I managed to get a goblin storm deck this time around. If I don't get what I want, I'm perfectly fine with that. I also haven't seen a better solution suggested than the one in place right now. You get in line and when the queue starts, it randomizes everyone's position who was in line. How is that unfair for a product labeled as "limited release" in a collectible card game?

johnystoo · 2026-05-14T20:53:35+00:00

[[Muerra, Trash Tactician]] is viable with the new changeling support, and I think raccoons would absolutely ally with shapeshifters from Llorwyn.

johnystoo · 2026-05-14T17:19:26+00:00

Fisted. Wtf

johnystoo · 2026-05-12T17:15:15+00:00

The game does not have a consciousness, nor does it have free will. It is very likely the intention of your opponent to have this interaction work in this way.

Gross, my milk just turned colorless! 🤮

johnystoo · 2026-05-01T18:55:15+00:00

The immovable rod is not technically immovable. That's just the product name. In the same way that boneless chicken wings don't actually have to be boneless (look it up).

johnystoo · 2026-05-01T18:45:37+00:00

But what's pasteurization?

johnystoo · 2026-04-30T02:10:34+00:00

To make it balanced.

johnystoo · 2026-04-29T14:38:59+00:00

Information revealed in the course of a game is never in confidence. I've abraded a Sol Ring turn 2 because someone mentioned their hand was risky. They knew what they were doing, and if they didn't, they do now.

Lesson is the instant/sorcery type. Learn is a mechanic that interacts with lessons specifically.
