      I mean, its a control deck. Countering a turn 3 ramp + removing the future adventure with negate is the right move, especially since LVD was playing a creature deck. Negate's future usefulness would have been in doubt for the oppo, so its best to run it out there.@@merke323

    Blink decks are my favorite archetype ever since Reveillark combo back in the day, and I'd been kicking around the idea for a new Standard one for a while when developing my pet deck gets to be frustrating, and I completely missed the Prototype creatures in my Scryfall searches.

    I really wanna see an Esper build that uses Virtue of Knowledge, Elesh Norn, Mondraak, Twisted Sewer-Witch, and Warehouse Tabby.
    Witch ETB on stack x3
    First resolves, create two Rats bc Mondraak. Create two Wicked Roles on each Rat.
    Only 1 Role per creature, two Roles fall off. Opponent loses 2 life.
    Tabby makes 2 Rats per Role that goes to Grave bc Mondraak. +4 Rats.
    Witch ETB 2 resolves, creating 2 Rats. 2 Roles per Rat.
    10 Roles fall off (2 each on the original two Rats, 1 each on the remaining new 6) Opponent loses 10 life, Tabby makes 20 Rats
    Witch ETB 3 resolves, creating 2 Rats (30 total) and 2 Roles per Rat.
    38 Roles fall off (1 each for the new 22 Rats, 2 each for the previous 8) opponent loses 38 Life, if they're still alive somehow, make 76 Rats (106 total)

      Budget decks on Arena usually equate to monocolored aggro decks.
      Monoblue is probably the best Standard deck that can be built with the fewest rares.
      I've covered it a while ago and the deck hasn't changed much since.

    Ngl. I was thinking of something similar-ish myself. In particular, i think the twins are highly underrated. When combined with Steel Seraph, you have 2 potent flying threats that can cause a lot of damage. Most decks cant handle fliers that well, allowing you to push past stalls. And since both are (potentially) vigilant fliers, it makes them even harder to deal with.

    I think it might be worth it to splash some green for Lagrella. Exiling your own prototypes and then flickering her is insane value especially with combat thresher since it just turns into a 5/5 double strike. She might provide that extra oomph to close out the games a bit quicker.

  • @roanmizzy3774
    @roanmizzy3774 Před 10 měsíci

    I've not seen anyone else try this yet, so I'mma start by asking you. Have you tried a multiplied burnout strategy with Phyrexian Vindicator yet? Where you try to get cards like City on Fire, and Solphim, Mayhem Dominus on the field alongside Phyrexian Vindicator. Then you can your opponent with a lightning bolt.
    Lightning Bolt, hits Vindicator x3(City on Fire), then turns around and multiplies x3 again as Vindicator's ability aims for the opponent or something on their field, with another x2 if there's a Solphim on the field as well. Like that.

      @@1who4me its called anti-consumer and poor assbagery. Mythic rare was supposed to be their cash cow cared but they have made so much over powered junk and then stuck a rare on it all because you can buy mythic packs from the store. Arena is a joke and just used to nickel and dime either customers. There is no love and passion or fun in magic anymore. The rewards you get for playing a free to play game are so meager its insulting, their anniversary gifts where just an op to get new people to buy old cards. You have to pay a ridiculous amount of money to enter any kind of worth while event for cards that Wizards in guaranteed to make obsolete when they inevitably release arena to with no card porting function. Call me it what you want but wizards suck and there are other ways to make a business without literally scamming your customers.
