Haste for its aggro style decks
Phasing for midrange and control decks at instant speed with card draw attached to creatures
Counterspells or at least spell exiling with HARD taxation like 4-6 extra mana, none of that little ass 2 mana shit.
And just pure value like every other color gets now.
It’s only fair.
Also bring back balance effects to nuke greedy boardstates

if you're 6-X you're probably only going to get paired into other people who are at 6-X
so the pool is naturally at its smallest and you can get paired up and face some wild decks.
also the funniest way to stream snipe if you luckshit an insane deck and camp at 6 wins waiting for a streamer.

First 7 win deck, made it to Plat. Yay.
Was not sold on Trystan until now. I mean sure, at its base it's a solid card. 3 mana 3/4 with death touch. That alone is solid. I was always skeptical about milling 3 cards a turn but the 2 damage actually won me a game. Thank god its optional, one retard i played against actually decked himself with it, kek. Thank God I never milled my Bloodline Bidding. 2 losses were to Kithkins. One guy raped me with Kinscaer Sentey on the play, and the other was >>97632050
Overall? Fuck Elves. Elementals are the best.
/blog
>>
>>97632126
Told you anon, it was a solid list. Elves have real good synergy this set, bidding is actually A tier with them. Elementals are pretty good too, but I found you're reliant on specific cards for fixing colors, like flamebraider or the treasure guy. Just going UR isn't enough imo, you gotta be splashing in the vivid elementals and bombs to really make it work.

It's a 5 mana chupcabra with a 4/4 body that also pushes for some extra damage. It's really good. Possibly the best limited card in the set. Or compare to circuit feeder in EOE, which was a great card in that format. 1 less mana, much higher count thanks to looking at the graveyard, and just a more easily included type. The only loss is the lack of flying.

It's the best it's been since MH3, but unbanning Magus/Harbinger and FoN was a mistake. It's a lot more like Pioneer now where you should expect to get Thoughtseized basically every game. Symmetry Sage, Ribald Shanty, and the Alchemy ninjas are still retarded.

I had the quest "destroy 15 creatures" so I made a mono black deck with nothing but -x/-x removal and 'destroy target creature' - but no win strategies.
First person I went against ragequit after the 5th round of me just removing his creatures and doing nothing else.
If one of you is that guy, I just wanted to say I'm sorry. You could have won in the long run! You shouldn't have gotten discouraged!

Happens to the best of us, 3-3 is still decent enough. On the plus side, Strixhaven 2 is coming real soon because they've crammed so many sets in this year, prerelease is April 17, just about 7 weeks from now. Fuckin insanity.

Ya, guess its an excuse for me to stockpile gold again. Im actually up raw gems by thousands because I saved tons of gold over spiderman and avatar. Im enjoying standard well enough with my spellmentals deck. Ive never been higher than diamond so maybe this March is the month I finally grind out my first mythic. Ill do 1-2 drafts of turtles then save the rest for strixhaven.Then the real nightmare of marvel...

Got a collector booster for going 3-0 at turtles prerelease. Im a former UB giga hater who came to accept it and sucked it up and went. It was fun. I didn't know any of the characters but I liked the art and the cards were fun and flavorful. I weirdly kind of like the aesthetics too.

izzet affinity and dimir mill are the new 4 turn clock decks if you dont have the right answers
rackdos monument, which was already insanely fast on a perfect draw but prone to running out of resources just as quickly, got some extra reach and 2 really strong refill cards
white weenie stuff with voice of victory just got a pretty good 2 mana create 3 1/1’s tapped and attacking sneak card
overall izzet affinity and rackdos monument probably have the highest chance of actually being meta relevant

There's ways to do it, you basically just need fast mana and something like flash + protean hulk to cheat out a bunch of creatures that combo out the game.

>>97642693
now imagine you didn't need mana to cast any of your spells and everyone could play that combo in Standard instead of just kitchen table magic.

>>97644667
Only if your opponent doesn't have a big board already. Otherwise as of that pic, daydreamer just dies to blockers even if it gets to use a removal spell. Plus once daydreamer is out you can't even double cast removal or play combat tricks.
