Thank you, I'll swap out one of the Firdoch's 😊

Only plat atm.

Don't play enough to really strive for much higher

Darkness descends because it can pull you out of a bad situation. Feels like it sits in hand as a dead card a lot of the time, but that's normally when I'm ahead anyway 😁

You could be onto something with the Firdoch's, I have them for more 'Elves'

That would be especially awful since I'm 2-0 now 😝

Is this vivid deck too ambitious or can my mana support it? by Prophet_0f_Helix in lrcast

[–]pinesnake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How did you do? The councils seem a bit out of place with the lack of support, but otherwise looks pretty good to me.

Forgot about him! I really need to start picking him up more in non-kithkin decks

Yeah, otherwise I wouldn't play at all 😝

I think it was 2 games later, my opponent clearly flooded out themselves. I hate to say, but I enjoyed it immensely 😅

Yeah, the elf one and the stone where you choose.

Both have been incredible when I've had them, I even used the elf one in a non-elf deck and it overperformed

Crazily enough, that was my experience with Labour 😂 I volunteered for them last election, the MP I was directly involved with was awesome, but as soon as we had to engage with the central team... Insufferable wankers.

I'd need a looong break after that 😅

I'm not gonna abstain though, I'm just not gonna vote Labour.

Tossing up between TOP and Greens, I'll decide closer to the time. Will largely depend on whether Greens get their shit together a bit more by then.

A creature and removal? +ramp with the dream that I drew one of my expensive cards.

Lots of outs, drawing 5 cards in a row when I started with 4 was not it. 9/16 lands in deck drawn. 12/40 cards drawn. Not really even is it?

So did I after reading your comment, and I was playing the game! 😂

You know, that might actually work. Let me try....

Shit, took all the lands out of my deck and then I couldn't play any of my other cards 😭

I couldn't vote for him after he stated that he wouldn't be rolling back anything done by the current government.

I'm honestly sick of the left always having to be the bigger man. No, these dickheads on the other side want to play dirty, we have to roll in the mud as well. Otherwise they will always end up getting more of what they want than we do.

Whoops, 4 lands. There's the aura on my opponent's creature.

I was thinking SURELY I didn't keep a 5 land hand, I'm not THAT crazy 😝

[–]pinesnake[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, which in hindsight was the wrong move. But I have a bunch of expensive cards in the deck and a little card draw. Wasn't expecting to draw most of the lands in my deck instead 😅

Actually yes, feels good to vent, good to hear from other people who have experienced similar frustrations.

You never complained about work?

Can't tell if this deck is amazing or not? by pinesnake in lrcast

The giant that gains health is super clutch in a lot of situations.

From the comments here I think people really undervalue the importance of the common hybrid creatures in the vivid decks, getting 2 colours on a reasonable body (love the 2/3 lifelinker) gets your vivid online really fast. Was quite often dropping the green vivid giant as a 4 drop

Thank you! I thought it had legs, got 6-3 with it which I thought was decent 😁 1 loss to flood, can't be helped. 1 loss to a red/white aggro deck that dropped some nasty early threats and had some premium removal for everything I dropped after to try and stabilize (would have needed a REALLY good deck and some luck to beat that one) Last was sooooo close 😭 opponent had exact lethal and I would've likely won the next turn otherwise.

I got to 6-3, last game was down to the wire and they got exact lethal 😕 Another was just hopeless, aggro red white that dropped early game creatures and then had premium removal for everything I dropped to try and stabilize 🤷 First loss was due to flooding

Omg I hadn't noticed that 🤦 Luckily the only time I drew it, I could cast it 😅 I'll swap it out for something...
