Every... Single... Time I have played Black I have lost. Black is so hit and miss, and the best creatures you can get on a regular basis are uncommon and the best creatures are rare. The commons are so weak it's sad.
I only play on PS3, but I was just joking around, although MW3 is a great game.
And I am so damn angry. I stayed home tonight to watch Velasquez vs Dos Santos, there was 30 minutes leading up to the match, and what happens?
Dos Santos wins in 0.55 seconds. You know what? I don't know what is worse. Ruining my Saturday night for a .55 second fight, or the MTGO shuffler?
And I have never played Kindercatch, but it seems like a solid card. I mean only 6 mana, hard to kill unless you want to use Smite the Monstrous, or waste a Rebuke on it. I think on my list of commons, and everyone has a list, for green it reaches the top 5 behind Gnaw to the Bone which people forget in limited can win games on it's own.
And I'm not lucky like you. I rarely, if ever, have picked up a Bloodline Keeper. I guess when we are issued packs, you get my Bloodline Keepers and I get your Parallel Lives or other $0.05 rares.
I would rather open a pack with any non-black rare than open one with a black rare. The removal is situational at best, and the creatures are weaker than any other color. I mean White has Rebuke and Bonds of Faith, But also what makes black so poor (In a set about horror btw), is the amount of double mana cards. I like single mana cards because you get mana screwed 99.9931% of the time, and I like the flexibility of a single mana card than a double cost card.
Although I see black being really strong in the next set. There are a lot of Zombie Enablers in this set with a lack of black zombies, so I would expect the next set to have another black Planeswalker (Sorin) and a lot of STD playable Zombies with White becoming weaker with some extra humans.
Oh and they have to add a Jace. If they don't there will be a lot of crying by the people who need counterspells and Jace to make a deck.
Hey Alternate, no offense taken as that was my 6 year old son playing, not me :S Hit me up anytime for some games, I am no scrub (no, I'm not rocking 70-9 games in dom, but I am a pretty fine player when wearing headphones).
(btw for anyone interested - my xbox 360 gamertag is bigdogarita - ignore the KDR etc as my son plays about 75% of the time :x)
I appreciate the input, is black really that bad? I tend to rip the 3/3 vamp token maker dude a lot, and almost always go to heavy black when I do. What about the removal?
re: Kindercatch, I will give it a shot. Vanilla 6/6 for 6 is nice, but GGG always seems so rough for a vanilla crit...
Wow, great analysis. I can take a crap pile of commons in most formats and get by on simply knowing the format. I swear it feel as though every time I play an ISD draft I get ok to mediocre cards, build with synergy, and immediately face a guy rocking 3 colors with 22 bombs....
What do you think about blue in the format? I have been wondering how many people the color can usually support, as the times I play blue it is either me with a fistful of bombs, or we are all fighting for table scraps as there are 5+ blue drafters...
Thanks for the comment A_New_Hope, much appreciated!
TwoHands you are a stud, as always. Thanks for the well thought out response - I was REALLY considering grabbing the Travel Preps, funny you say that :)
One of these days I will get ballsy enough to make a burning vengeance deck... I'm just not there yet.
The first draft I recorded this week was stellar man, RB vamps and each of my three rounds I played against guys with WAY bigger/better bombs, but I grinded into a 3-0 (2-1,2-1,2-1)
Thanks as always bro, I shall consider the BV route!
I waited on line at midnight also, and after an hour and a half of waiting, finally got home and played the hell out of MW3 which is INSANE. But no offense, you would need to get on my level bud. 3.0 K/D and the ACG is the greatest gun ever made. Makes the FAMAS look like a Pea Shooter.
You should have ran a Kindercatch (Don't know why people don't). It's a Spirit and also should have run some Forbidden Alchemy. If you can get that Spirit in your graveyard early all your creatures get a very fast +1/+1.
And most people don't know this, but the first commenter used a quote from the South Park Underwear Gnomes.
But this shows exactly why nobody should ever play Black in ISD Limited. I don't care when my first pick is Olivia, I always try to get into W/G, W/U, or W/U/Garruk.
One little request, if you had some sort of seperator for the twitter feed, it would have made that part a bit easier to read (indent, font change, bold/italics, or ruler lines)
Well you probably did plenty wrong but mostly it's just that this is one of the worst limited formats for getting an edge with skill.
At first glance the format looks really skill based with all of the interactions and synergy being more important than individual card power. Well it turns out that all that synergy winds up creating a lot of high power and high variance.
I recently drafted a deck with 3 invisible stalkers and 3 butcher's cleavers, the nuts right? (wasn't bad otherwise either), yet went 1-2. Why? I only drew one of each in 2 games the whole draft. If I had drawn them 6 times I probably would have won the draft. There are a number of fairly high power cards that are insanely disrupted by other cards in the format. Like stitched drake or makeshift mauler or skaab goliath, the flashback unsummon just wrecks these cards, but without some way to stop them can easily run you over very quickly. Draw your enablers and not your enabled cards and you often just lose and vice versa.
The transformers are also super annoying at increasing shuffler variance. If you draw a bad curve and they land reckless waif, another dude and follow up with brimstone volley its just game over much more than a bad curve drawn in other limited formats. There is also the butcher's cleaver and I've found spectral flight to be insane when they dont have an answer for it since it tuns anything into a hasted dragon.
It's a fun format, people will think theyre great deckbuilders with all the synergy theyre using but in the end the format is awful awful awful if you want to do well consistently. Bad players will ranch you all day long.
So I realized today that some of the combos people like to use with kiki jiki can also be used with Tariel. Namely, getting a thornbite staff on her and having certain sac outlets can let you go infinite. I think I may have have that as a possibility in the deck.
Only had a chance to watch Draft #3 so far, here are some notes on that one:
Pack 1:
P2 - Moan has gone way up in my estimation ... especially if you want to play your first pick, black is WAY better than white (what white instants do you want to replay?), too. Worth considering.
P3 - Since you have the Fiend Hunter in your pile and the pack is pretty blank, it seems way better to take Travel Preparations to stay "open" to one of the best archetypes - Bell Ringer will suck in almost any R/W deck.
P4 - Vengeance tables a LOT, and Geist is that good ... I think you have to take Geist here. Also Vengeance kind of sucks with Charmbreaker Devils, they work at opposite goals. (also, you say "I can shape the draft around BV" then never take the flashback card, even late!)
P5 - Sentry is best if we're still in white, and pairs well with red (because you trade so much).
P8 -
Step 1: Take Vengeance.
Step 2: Take Traitorous Blood over Bump.
Step 3: ???
Step 4: Do not profit.
P11 - I looooove Weevil here - he's actually a sick morbid enabler, should you wind up with a Banshee or Reaper in your pile. Would have been a good speculative pick.
Pack 2:
P1 - Interloper > Heir in every vampire deck - and Heir is likely to table here.
P6 - This is the deck for the Demonmail!
Awesome article though man, thanks for getting a TON of awesome vids out, and for not cherry-picking the good ones. You're the king.
I enjoyed the article as I am a huge sports nut ( Go Buckeyes!). Having said all that, I agree with CB's post. In order for a celebrity thing to go down it better be celebrities with brains. Do you really think AP would want to get destroyed by a zit faced young kid? I don't think that kind of exposure would benefit an athlete like him, nor would his agent recommend it.
I think him promoting the product would be more than enough pull for the game to market to people other than your typical magic player.
After all, there are normal, family guy, sports addicted nuts that play this game (like me!).
We have some special events coming up in December (beside the 12/3 Endangered Species) where the Wurm deck wouldn't work:
12/17 - 50th Anniversary: Elves vs Goblins
Each player will need 2 decks: an Elf deck and a Goblin deck. First player listed in pairings plays Elves, 2nd player plays Goblins.
Other bonuses may be presented.
No Most Endangered prize.
12/24 - Christmas Special
Each deck must contain W, R, and G cards only. Muticolor & hybrid cards count towards each color on the card. For example, Wild Cantor or Sprouting Thrinax would towards both R and G. For the purposes of this event, Transguild Courier is colorless.
Presents for all! And surprise bonus plays!
Bonus for highest placing Snow deck. (A Snow deck is considered all Snow permanents)
While none of the sanctioned events have fired, both Overdrive! & Eurodrive! (1v1 Modern single elimination PREs) are alive and well, and going great guns... :)
I remember seeing that thread, but since it seemed like everyone was focused on themes, I stopped following it. The Landfall/Infect decks are more what I'm after and they look really nice.
Good suggestion on searching the article library. I was still thinking about how I would wade through all of the deck lists that I didn't think about searching articles. The articles would provide context you won't find with just a decklist, so I think I'll start there. I can always search the lists once I have a couple of decks built to see if there is anything fun that I've missed.
I am not a sports fan (like at all), but I think you have made a good point here. Celebrity Invitationals. I personally would want to kick the entire Stoopid Monkey production teams' asses if I had a choice (I AM GUNNIN' FOR YOU, SETH GREEN!!!).
i'd understood if one went blank but both of them? before modern was introduced legacy fired consistently. modern was firing all the time as well. so what happened that both of them died at the same time. i just dont understand.
Hello Lord,
Thanks for the quick response. I've been testing the above decklist on MTGO with pretty good results so fa. I will take your suggestions and see how the blend in with the rest of the deck.
If you notice in the decklist supplied, there is two copies of Elesh Norn already? In regards to Adaptive Automaton, he's in there to help buff the other humans, Mirran Crusader and Grand Abolisher, and the one copy of Hero of the Bladehold. In regards to those cards they are mostly 3 drops with helps, Sun Titan re-occur them.
I will wait anxiously for your article on MWC. Will it be just block related or will you do one on M12,SOM, and ISD combined?
Hi bocco, I will write a very detailed article about mono White within a few weeks. So as of now, I haven't fully concentrated on this deck so my suggestions below regarding your deck are all untested.
Archon of Justice - If you pay five for a card, make sure that it's either Batterskull or Gideon.
Adaptive Automaton - Yours isn't a tribal deck, this isn't needed.
Fiend Hunter - This is one other of those "perfect in theory, horrible in practice" cards. Drop it.
Grand Abolisher - This should be played only if you are aiming for some Angelic Destiny and/or Swords actions. Otherwise drop it.
Solemn Simulacrum - Should be at least 3. Even 4 is good.
Elspeth Tirel - I wouldn't play her. Gideon and Batterskull are much better and you really don't want to clog your hand with too many five mana cards.
Ichor Wellspring - Make it 4.
Hero of Bladehold - 1 isn't going to do anything. Either remove it completely or make it 4.
I would also recommend these cards:
Elesh Norn - 1 copy should be considered. Kills those Inkmoth Nexuses the moment they're activated. Good stuff.
Timely Reinforcements - 1 to the main and 3 to the side maybe?
Dismember - You have Wurmcoil Engine and Batterskull, so you can gain life. So why not add at least 2? You also have the BW dual land in deck, so maybe even 3?
Mycosynth Wellspring - With Solemn Simulacrum, this one and Ichor Wellspring plus Phyrexia's Core, you will be thinning your deck in no time. Which is a good thing, no?
Celestial Purge - Maybe 2 to the sideboard?
As I said these are totally untested ideas, so use them at your own risk!
Thanks for the help and the game the other day. As I mentioned, I would like to build a Mono White Control using M12, SOM, and ISD.
This is my decklist. Please tell me what you think and also give me any suggestions on how to made it better.
Thank you

wow nice Rob "the whole effing show" van dam a ECW legend plays magic that was a shocker to me. And yes it would be bad ass to play a game against one of NFL greatest running backs Adrian Peterson. I do not like the Vikings at all but AP is a top rated RB. And I do agree MTG needs to get on the advertising side again and respark MTG. I remember years back when I was going to school espn would show Magic worlds event and stuff and than all of a sudden it just stopped. While games like yugioh are offering bigger prize payouts with game consoles and IPODs and all kinds of other stuff for their tourny winners.
I'd be glad to, but my schedule is rarely open at the time the events fire. :( Anyway I'll be sure to check them out if I ever happen to be at home at the right time. :)
