Two Good Games — April 11, 2015

Edit

Got a lot of information from two really solid 3-man games last night. Added Mana Flare and Heartbeat to the maybeboard because my opponent played Mana Flare, which resulted in a double Banefire for 69 damage a piece. I can only imagine that this will not only help me cast and re-cast Wort, but also get really big with damage, provided I play them once I'm able to ramp and use it first.

Was really impressed with Decree of Savagery. This was a card I wasn't sure was going to stick around, but Conspired at Instant Speed and coupled with 3-4 creatures, this thing turns even the 1/1s into reasonably sized beaters/blockers, enabling you to get into burn range. I'm considering even Strength of the Tajuru now, just cause I have such a fixed floor with Wort and her underlings being removed, and a high ceiling if I can pull it off. This card shifted the tempo and helped me knock out a pretty strong Darigaaz ramp deck.

Boundless Realms- basically an all-star, and I never Conspired it.

Most of the cards were very relevant at every stage, so I don't foresee a lot of cuts in the traditional sense. I'm entertaining the possibility that I can just rotate cards in that I want to play and take out ones I don't. I only lost my second game because I drew into about 9 straight land after I'd knocked out another player. Considering dropping 1-2 lands, but I want to get more games in before I do it. I'm fairly certain any non-Ramp, non-land card I would've drawn had the potential to win me the game, and I knew card draw was going to be a bit of a weakness in the deck anyway. Replaced some of the other noncreature permanents with spells, and added Into the Wilds to help negate this problem. Goldfishing it with the changes today have been good.

Still loving the basic mana base. I'd love to come up with a Loam Cycle/Draw Engine, but I'm really not interested in playing non-basics yet. Maybe that will change down the road.
