Magic fags of /b/ unite ITT. What deck(s) in standard are you currently running? I'm messing around with Temur dragons at the moment. Three DL Atarka, Three Thunderbreak Regent, Three Icefall Regent are the main line-up. Also running three Hunt Caller and three Shaman of Forgotton Ways. Mainboard spells are three Silumgars Scorn, three Draconic Roar, three Negate and three Roast. Planeswalker of choice is Sarkahn Unbroken. Also running Explosive Vegetation for the sake of possibly casting Atarka on turn 5.
Feel free to brag about your modern builds as well
Ideas you may have when Innistrad comes in?
All MTG matters welcome ITT!
I'm working on a Boros deck for standard that combos to swing lethal 22 damage on turn 4. It's so far very effective against tempo, control, and midrange without a ton of removal. Although against eldrazi it's useless and most aggro is 50/50 against it.
I'm running mono green ramp in standard and tron in modern
Lol standard
>not playing modern
>not playing legacy
Not about that fam
>>675188932
Playing Jeskai Black for standard. Had a lot of fun with it, and sad to see it go.
Waiting until SoI before getting back into Modern. Going to wait to see what the metas like before choosing Grishoalbrand or Jund. Have both built, but they need to be updated.
I haven't played Type 2 since 4th edition, but do have a bunch of Legacy and EDH decks.
Shadows is interesting as several cards have the tarmogoyf-like ability, which works well in Legacy.
I'm more excited for Eternal Masters and Conspiracy 2, going to be fun to draft.
>>675189276
And merfolks in legacy and modern.
Currently running monogreen Eldrazi ramp.
Turn 4 Ulamog makes for a pretty interesting game
>>675189797
I'm doing similar my ramp deck is green red with kozi return, 1koz 2ulamaog 1void winnowed and 4 world breakers.
>>675189521
Modern is currently dominated by Eldrazi and is just not good right now
Legacy is too expensive and has too few people playing it.
>>675188932
Run 4 thunderbreak, dont run hunt caller, dont run shaman. run more 4ofs stop making sloppy decks.
>>675188932
Also 4 of sylvan advocate and 4 of draconic roar should be great for this deck. If you are interested in ramp rattleclaw mystic is your best bet. also you only have like 2 weeks left for this standard season so dont go crazy
with all the new spoilers im going to run a pure red deck with 4 of the sin prodders and goblin dark dwellers. it might eventually evolve into jund vamps if i get enough good cards together.
>>675189521
Heya what's your modern deck of choice? Not too exp. with modern but I've got this Blue/Black Invisible Stalker deck that I like playing with. Dark favor and Mark of the Vampire really do help the deck, even though they're typically looked over or are just never used...
>>675189630
JeskaiB is still strong as shit, Ive lost to it at my local shop pretty much equal to if not more than hard Abzan, which is going to pretty much die when Kahns and Fate fall of.
>>675190610
Why not Shaman? I can cast Hunt Caller and Thunderbreak with just two land, and Icefall with just three. The whole "three of each" card is based pretty much around my mana base. It's not the greatest, and it would suck getting caught with an excessive amount of the same card in my hand if I didn't have those Shamans.
As far as not running Hunt Caller, should I run Dragon Tempest instead?
>>675188932
Simic +1/+1 counter bullshit
Used to be a GW player but recently have really gotten into UG, U's counters and shit are a really nice complement to green's big stompy critters. It's nice to be able to keep your board alive until you seal the deal, and draw power is certainly a nice bonus.
>>675190933
Jeskai black is going to lose Mantis Rider, Crackling Doom, Dig Through Time, Tasigur, Soulfire Grandmaster, and a few other good cards I'm forgetting.
I love the deck. Hopefully Grixis or UWR will do good in the next standard. Nahiri, Jace, and Gideon seem like they'd go well together.
>standard for stupid fag
>legacy only for Rich fags
>EDH is god teir
Currently working on WB with ayil as commander would like help if you can fags

>>675192502
Shiet nigguh, I'm building a five colour allies right now. Ayli is pretty strong
Feels pretty good to have my favorite modern deck, Living End, almost foiled out. Man that deck fucks.
>>675191760
Yeah the green Eldrazi ramp is super popular and super strong right now, its a pain in the ass. Playing temur right now at least gives me a fighting chance. I do love using counters and those simple counter spells have helped me. Blue can be a problem for Eldrazi players!
>>675192037
It's all good. Jeskai in itself I think is going to continue to stay strong. Cards like Reflector Mage and Stormchaser Mage are keeping Jeskai players hungry.
Stopped shortly after rise of the eldrazi launched
Ran an exalted weenie UGW deck.
Jhessian infilrator
Wall of denials
Cloak and daggar
Bant charm
Favour of the overbeing
Rafiq
Shit was cash. Literally. Won 200 and a booster box in 2/5 tournaments
>>675192804
She so great for life gain I swearrrr
>>675192804
Do you have post anywhere like tappedout?
You guys are building some garbage ass decks. I guess winning isn't everything, but it should at least be a goal. 3 color decks are going to die in the SOI game. We've been spoiled by fetches and Dual lands. The closest you're going to get is something like G/B colorless. But if you aren't playing white for Avacyn or G/R for Arlinn, you aren't doing it right
TLDR: Play 4 thunderbreaks OP
>>675192922
Oh you, and your shiny modern business. I'm sure it rocks.
>>675192804
5 color allies? Who you running? Drana instantly comes to mind though of course I may be wrong..
Who's finna play commander with a nice guy?
>>675190099
I'm running almost the exact same thing. I threw in some Atarka's commands and some hangerback walker.
Not playing standard, but I just finished my Scheherezad deck.
>>675191562
Dragon tempest is super bad pls no. look at some dragons lists online.
PSA for WoC:
PUT OUT SOME FUCKING 4 COLOR LEGENDARY CREATURES
I lost it after Oath. All I know is that eldrazi are dominating everything ATM. Please correct me
>>675192422
I'm running a Kami of the crescent moon EDH
>>675193989
Alot of people have been saying the three-color interest is going to die. The land situation is going to favor two colors, I do not disagree. I'm sure as hell aint dropping blue though. Take out the green then eventually? Idk.
>>675194531
Kami such a dickkkk.... Hate playing against it. Fucking wrecks my mono black every time
>>675188932
Collected Bant and Abzan midrange. Expect Jund midrange out the fucking ass in Shadows block rotation.
Thinking of getting a Magic deck.
How would Red/White fair in casual play (most likely just the local comic shop)?
The only experience I have with MTG is Planeswalker 2013, and I dig the Peacekeeper white and Goblin Gangland reds they offer.
>>675194833
Play standard, look up budget builds and pretty much just git gud, took me two years to play on a competitive level, but I mean I've won GP's so like idk man it's different for everyone.
Working on my scion five color storm edh deck with eye of the storm.
>>675194833
I think green would probs be best to start off with and learn to play, its the most straightforward color and easy to play.... Basically plays itself
>>675194305
I have. And Hunt Caller isnt necessarily a stranger in some of them. Being able to attack with an 8/8 FT on turn 5 or 6 isn't really a bad thing. I may just be stubborn idk. I like Hunt Caller, and as far as the Tempest, it was a genuine question. I mean, I dont NEED the whole Haste concept, but its enjoyable when I pull it off.
>>675194495
Youre not wrong. Eldrazi is indeed super strong right now, though of course, Innistrad is going to be coming out with some type of answer...I hope.

Currently have an infinite bees CoCo deck that I want to try. No idea on a sideboard though other than reclamation sage
>>675194833
Play standard like the one anon above me said, it definitely won't hurt as far as just testing the waters. Play mono-color to start, green probably. Maybe black...
>>675195810
NOT THE BEES!!!
>>675194009
It's an EDH deck, should've said, I ran a naya agro allies deck a dew weeks back in standard. Centered around zada and combat tricks.
>>675189797
>>675190099
i hate you boring fags
If you are new to magic as soon as Innistrad comes out in a couple weeks do the pre-release and then some drafts and slowly work your way into a standard deck. Look at sites like mtgtop8 to get ideas for designs and slowly build into the standard deck you like most.
>>675196477
Zada is a great card. His ability is nuts, which is why I suppose it takes five mana to cast him, which is still a tiny bit high. I havn't seen Zada face to face at my local shop yet, though I guess I should be a little worried if I do.
Not sure how I feel about him being a Commander, though. Then again Im extremely inexperienced when it comes to EDH gameplay. >>675196477
Not really into standard, mainly play EDH with my rakdos deck. Had it about 2 years, it was my first edh I made, been tweaking it as I learn more about the game. Love it. When Fate Reforged came out, I got the rare Ugin in my prerelease pack (got last place but feel like inwon regardless, there's only what 2, 500 of those?) Been trying to fond a way to use him in a demon deck
>>675197092
C'mon anon...dont be like that. There's been a MtG thread on /b/ like once a week, if not less. Better than most of the threads active right now, I'll sure as hell say that.
>>675188932
>Standard: None
Haven't played standard since Return to Ravnica rotated out, just didn't seem fun, and looking at decks surpass $700 just astounds me.
I've been playtesting Esper variations in Modern, not great but really fun, as esper's my favorite color combination.
Legacy looks fun, but honestly it's just not something I see myself getting into
EDH is my main format, I love chilling with good friends playin some commander.
I also greatly believe that a person's favorite commander deck can help signify with their personality, so that's always cool
>>675197517
Are you running Lord of Riots? I'm sure that was a silly question. I havn't seen a good Rakdos deck in a minute.
>>675197943
There's always atleast one faggot who wants to play mod though
>>675198261
That's actually the only incarnation of Rakdos I don't own, though I am getting it soon. I'm using defiler as a placeholdergeneral at the time being, sometimes ill switch it with Malfagor (sp?)
>>675198217
Standard decks nowadays are expensive. Winning decks, anyway....shit can be ridiculous. I like commander too, though like I said before I'm not experienced with the game style. If I were to build a commander deck it would probably be mono colored. Black, most likely, though mono white seems like it would be fun too!
>>675196292
YES THE BEES!!!
>>675198782
Defiler is great too. Lord of Riots I'm just biased towards because its like....a fucking 6/6 flyer on turn 4 second-main phase, in addition to his actual ability which is pretty much just an unnecessary bonus.
>>675198844
Yeah, if new to commander, I suggest either a pre-constructed commander deck or go mono-colored as both save you quite a bit of money. Mono-colors save more simply because the lands are cheap and easy.
My friend has a relentless rats EDH deck that is actually really spooky when none of us have a boardwipe.
My other friend has an Odric, White Weenie edh that is really fun but not too great.
>>675199503
Oh I know. I want it
>>675198451
Just being honest, anon. My apologies. Mods are sleeping anyway, right? Post some sinks!
I'm getting back into standard just because of new innastrad. Im so exited i almost came
>>675200582
I'm excited to see EDH playable cards in SoI, I couldn't give less fucks about the standard playability of those cards
