Yeah, I played that a bit. It was fun, but again, it wasn’t enough where I was inspired, ya know?
I do. I liked my blue and white deck enough to consider building something around the concepts there. I haven’t opened any of the packs yet though, so I’m reserving judgement.
They Might Be Giants vs. Red Deck Wins
(Red deck did not win)
LOL, this is one of my better decks and has been mostly consistent throughout the new set releases. It’s no longer viable in ranked play, but does pretty well in casual play. ^This match is one of those times the deck just popped off!
This was a better battle than the score indicates. Of course he was playing a bullshit commander (Golos, Tireless Pilgrim). I had pulled off the Urza-meld to create Urza, Planeswalker… I used his -3 to exile Terror of the Peaks the 1st turn, then Rhystic Study the 2nd. He then managed to exile Urza (asshole).
Next I got Portal to Phyrexia into play despite him having Shalia, Voice of Plenty (which gives himself and his other permanents hexproof). He played Casualiteis of War and destroyed it, my commander (Urza, Prince of Kroog), and a land.
Then he hit me with Ruinous Ultimatum (destroy all your opponent’s non-land permanents)…
I played my commander for the 3rd time. He got Nyxbloom Ancient, his commander, and a 1/1 on the field. I had my commander (Urza, Prince of Kroog) in play. I cast Revoke Existence, targeting Golos (it’s an artifact creature), then played Urza’s Rebuff (tapping his 2 remaining creatures), and then played Yotian Frontline with its Unearth ability FTW!
I gotta admit that I’m enjoying the new Achievements challenges.
Fuck this guy and his T1 Ruin Crab. Dick. I turned the tables on this bitch, though… He kept milling me, I kept killing his creatures, then I dropped Command the Dreadhorde and stole all his mill creatures from his graveyard, dropped Yarok, the Desecrated so that it & Risen Reef would do they thang!
Tales from the Graveyard #256
I just kept drawing the cards I needed. Felt good to Counterspell his Mondrak, Glory Dominus, causing him to concede.
Noticed you’ve been on Arena a lot recently. We should play a match sometime!
I’m down.
What an asshole. The guy was incredibly mana-fucked, but kept playing… UNTIL my win-con was put into play! Then he stopped playing and let all the timers run out. Fucking dick.
Another asshole who quit playing as soon as I put my win-con on the battlefield. Fucking concede if you’re not going to keep playing!
It’s as if it’s a culture of butthurt. Has taken a while but I’ve gotten to where I just laugh and mock them, knowing they’re seething inside. It’s especially satisfying when he was winning in every possible way then in one turn gets a big ole sandy vag.
If you haven’t noticed yet, the new set is amazing. Has a lot of new versions of OP cards and some new ones worth using.
This game was something that happens all the time but it still makes me smile. Dude with a similar deck, firing on all cylinders but still gets humiliated.
