U Tron

Deck Help forum

Posted on Jan. 24, 2015, 2:25 p.m. by 21

How does Ugin sound in mono blue tron? I wanna play him in there but everybody I know says that it's bad in modern but I say that it's decent and also I play casual so I don't care.

+2 Ping off a creature

-X Board wipe and swing w/ wurmcoil, sad robot, sundering, etc.

-10 If I really need to I will I guess

But whatever, what are y'all's thoughts on this?

The big counterargument is that you can't tutor for him, to which I reply, I'll run two then.

I honestly don't know if he's gonna stay in the deck, but I'll definately run him for a while. So far I can't say if the deck is stronger for it, but it doesn't seem to be weaker.

I've been running a single Ugin and its extremely hard to lose once he hits. I've replaced the Plat Angel with him for now and its been working well. I've even had people scoop once he hits.

For the record I replaced my oblivion stone and dropped from three to two sad robots to fit them in.

I run a 2 of too, just for the consistency. For me I really don't care about tutoring for him so, meh. And most ppl say that he's easily counterd or vampire he mage but I'm running the core

4 Condescend

3 Repeal

4 Remand

and 1 Spell Burst

And I dropped the o stone too, and one talisman from 4 to 3

Planeswslkers all die to hexmage, so that's hardly an argument. As far as countering is concerned, ugin isn't as useful a tool against control anyhow, but if you really need to resolve him vs. tempo decks, u-tron is usually in a better position to win counterwars.

Yeah I know that they all die to him, but I'm just sayin thay all my friends always bring it up like EVERYBODY in modern plays it. And yeah I'm not talking about vs control, just like aggro or combo decks.

Oh ok got it thanks!

I built a Simic tron list to get into modern with specifically because of ugin called Ugi-Tron and so far I have 0 complaints. Aggro hates him turn 4. I drop him -3 I just wiped their board. The only matchup that he isn't that awesome is control only because his -X is usually irrelevant to them. But pinging control for 3 damage every turn can be pretty crippling.
