In my Locust God deck, PE actually was a fair card – it was not dedicated to super fast Ramp, so it usually did not go infinite, just allowed to chain a bunch of Draw Spells. Well, I guess now I use Mind over Matter, which just happens to do that job m…

/u/bboomslang on Save your money (Dont buy from this store)
If it was through the amazon marketplace, the right way to go is through amazon. They don‘t like that kind of stuff from their stores.

/u/bboomslang on The Three Cards That Should be Banned in Modern (Brian DeMars)
I like both Faithless Looting and Ancient Stirrings, but I just can’t fathom why Red and Green of all colors are supposed to have the best cantrips when blue has to get by with Opt or Serum Visions. So yeah, if we don’t want to see Ponder and Preordain in Modern, lets get rid of Looting and Stirrings, too.

/u/bboomslang on Pauper is now an official, sanctioned format!!
Actually Merchant Scroll will be interesting to see, as will be Mystic Remora – we already play Mystical Teachings, so another tutor can see play. And the fish is just fantastic T1 for blue decks that want to go long. But the best probably will be Desert, because it has chances to hose a lot of decks, especially blue one-drops. Sadly that’s what I love to play, so I guess there is some pain in my future 😉

Yeah, I guess sideboards now go to 6 red blasts and 5 blue blasts and maybe 3 land destructions 😉

I don’t care for Golos, but where is that sweet sounding Maze’s End / Niv-Mizzet, Reborn list? 🙂

/u/bboomslang on [M20] Bag of Holding
Might find a place in [[Neheb, Dreadhorde Champion]]? I mean, it prevents Notion Thief blowouts from your wheeling, and it gives you the option to more agressively wheel, because you get the mana to get the cards back. Neheb is a bit fringe, but this m…

/u/bboomslang on New tech for UPS – replaces Future Sight?
I see your point of whiffing outside of combo, where FS does more, by also playing non-artifacts. But the forge allows to keep instants you know about on top and playing them through Urza, so I think it is still very useful with him out. Lesser so with…

Yeah, I think my Jhoira will like it a lot, it will help with storming off quite a bit and super easy to Cast.

/u/bboomslang on New tech for UPS – replaces Future Sight?
So this, SDT and a cost reducer is Draw your deck. And much easier to pay for than FS would be, and even one Mana cheaper. Goes straight into UPS, I guess, since it helps with going off with Urza, has its own combo and gives away less info to opponents…

Goes infinite with Sensei‘s Divining Top and a cost reducer, can skip at least one card from the top if it is not needed, with Paradox engine out gets untapped and so can skip more stuff and is not obvious to opponents like Future Sight and costs one l…

/u/bboomslang on Omnath, Locus of the Roil | Coralhelm Combo
You can Imperial Recruiter for Drift of Phantasm, then transmute for Retreat. Yeah, not the fastest, feels kinda janky, but hey, it’s an additional tutor line. But probably better to just use partner commanders and go for black to tutor for combo pieces, everything else will always be second class to that.

/u/bboomslang on Sultai Wilderness Teachings: real deal or meh?
If you have just one teachings, you teaching for teachings. It’s what we do in Pauper for quite a while already in UB Teachings and many Tron variants. If your deck can produce the necessary mana, Teachings is awesome.

well, I am not playing limited or standard, so that probably influences my look on the card.

/u/bboomslang on [M20] Ancestral Blade (re-upload with better image)
Interesting variant of "Living Weapon", but kinda underpowered. It could at least give some keyword in addition to the +1/+1. At the power level it is at, I would have seen this as a common.
