Its mostly just the precon Rakdos. I threw in Rakdos, Ob, Lili, Elderspell and Embercleave. Ob seems to be the real game changer for me. It's not that great a card, but has turned the tide a few times, especially against those draw heavy decks.
Yeah I drew up a Rakdos aggro list for the "Play Any Deck" event. Lot of people trying to play new and weird decks and I'm just trying to smash face with Rotting Regisaurs and Rankle
First was a bust sealed that I 1-2ed with because of some pretty bad luck. Second was my half of a two-headed giant that we went undefeated in.
managed to get some copies of the japanese challenger decks. i grabbed 2 copies of the nissa deck, and 1 copy of the feather. will def help me fill some holes in my collection these are the decklists and they were selling somewhere between 30 and 40 bucks Earth Awakening Deck Chanting Dance Deck
yup my wife keeps asking me how long the event is going to be. i kept saying it depends bec if i lose the firsr 2 games, then it’s not that long lol
im thinking of playing simic goose is loose because it can consistently grind out games but i think that might be a bad idea bec i’ll have decent MUs vs everything maybe tweak it slightly to add more questing beasts or something
It's really short this time. Starts at 8 PM Pacific time and only goes for like 36 hours or something. I feel like it will be a lot of midrange grindy stuff. Expect a lot of Bant Golos, mono black, and Oko/goose nonsense
currently 6-0 in Win Every Card Challenge been playing grindy games with the goose-oko deck. i didn’t want to go aggro because it’s hard for me to recover with a bad opening hand last game was a mirror that was super tense. i ended up winning by throwing a 20/21 hydra on the board, which was able to pass through my opp’s 6/7 hydra, manlands into Nissa. fun game. i feel like opp still had a shot, but he quit a few turns after he/she Oko+1-ed my hydra which made it bigger (but lost trample). pretty sure he did the right play bec then he could’ve chumped every turn. he only needed to draw a krasis to win the game
I went 1-2 with mono black. bad draws and on the play both losses. Grixis Fires is such an annoying deck
Was on a 3-0 hot streak with Sultai Flash before I had to leave for work, hopefully I can keep that going later. Haven't run into top tier decks yet though, here's hoping it stays that way haha
yea they i played against one in ranked and somehow they had negate every turn. but it’s a pretty inconsistent deck. ive had games where they were able to play fires and then nothing for the next few turns. Bolas is pretty slow vs hasted things
what black do you splash in? i fought a simic flash but was able to play through 2 quenches in 1 turn. i left the mana for the goose and only accounted for 1 quench so that was lucky lol ive been in some very tough matches i really hope the next ones are easier.
Can't remember fully off the top of my head, but I know Tyrant's Scorn and Assassin's Trophy are pretty crucial. I've seen some lists running that 6-drop serpent as a top end, I might entertain that idea.
