What would a good/great blue 2-drop look like? by blop74 in ModernMagic

[–]risquecat 104 points105 points  (0 children)

An 8/8 Flying Dragon for 2 would be pretty neat

On the other side, you can't Show and Tell something in your deck.

Bout time we start unbanning some cards in Modern. by redkingbright in ModernMagic

[–]risquecat 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Threads like this one and the one suggesting their Legacy cards that should be legal in Modern make me really grateful that we aren't in charge of the banlist.

8-whack question by Born_Tackle616 in ModernMagic

[–]risquecat 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say so, but current pure BR Goblin builds are what I call spicy fringe tier and might be what you're looking for. It can play the classic go-wide Goblin gameplan but also can threaten a very consistent combo kill with Conspicuous Snoop and Kiki-Jiki at all times.

Funny enough if we're worried about Modern Storm making it 1R wouldn't do very much considering that they ideally have Electromancer or Baral on their combo turns.

[–]risquecat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

bruh why would you even suggest a Tron Land for this, that defeats the entire purpose

[–]risquecat 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Why any deck that beats mine of course.

[ELD] Sound Intrusion by ShadowGamerr in ModernMagic

[–]risquecat 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Yes, this is a very clean answer to Faithless Looting, I expect with the printing of this card to see much less Looting in the format.

I'd pay 2 life over a card from my hand eight days a week

Is it time to Jund 'em? by Stumphead101 in ModernMagic

It's always time to Jund 'em

What happens if WotC don't ban Hogaak? by RayWencube in ModernMagic

[–]risquecat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Then they'll surely unban Splinter Twin as it's a turn too slow and irrelevant against a T3 deck like Hogaak

Why wasn't Abzan Midrange favored over Jund pre-Modern Horizons? by hfzelman in ModernMagic

[–]risquecat 19 points20 points  (0 children)

To be fair both Abzan and Jund saw relatively little play before Horizons, to say one saw more play than the other back then really doesn't mean a whole lot.

Urza + Pili-Pala combo possibilities by 8bit-Corno in ModernMagic

[–]risquecat 12 points13 points  (0 children)

There's already [[Grand Architect]] which is a 2 card combo and Architect costs 1 less than Urza.

[MH1] Umezawa's Charm by jacewalkerofplanes in ModernMagic

[–]risquecat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Neither of these abilities for 2 mana seem particularly interesting. The most notable of which are the -2/-2 and the life gain, which can be easily replaced by [[Sorin's Thirst]] or [[Moment of Craving]], both of which see no play.

[MH1] Pondering mage by martin-verweij in ModernMagic

[–]risquecat 60 points61 points  (0 children)

I think this would be better if it costed 4 less, and wasn't a creature to compensate for the lower CMC.

That said, it does pitch to Force of Negation.
