Icbrgr on The One Ring

8 months ago

is Leyline of Punishment worth experimenting with against The One Ring?

I've been playtesting Caveman ungbunga pure burn lists recently and I was wondering if it seems to anyone else like a interesting tech piece to get around the Protection clase the ring provides.... kinda like using Skullcrack against somone with Kor Firewalker?

Nice build!

Having run something very similar (which now resembles this), i’d thing your burn matchup would be super rough (as mine was/is). I’d recommend some quantity of Kor Firewalker in the sideboard to help make that matchup winnable

wallisface on How to take losses better …

One thing worth noting with these sorts of decks, is that the games you win will often happen very quickly (4ish fast turns of blasting-face), whereas the games you lose often take a much longer period of time (the opponent resolves a Kor Firewalker then slowly whittles you down at their leisure).

This means that while the win ratio of the deck might sit around 50%, the actual time in-game playing a losing position is going to be much higher than this (because winning games end so quickly). I guess its important to understand that and not get discouraged by this.

Keeping a record of your games might help to let your brain know the deck’s doing better than it feels.

wallisface on Yorions gone - what cards …

So, this is my current thinking for this list - basically moving Thalia to the sideboard, and trimming some cards i’d rather not see multiples of. Also ditching Ephemerate:

Land (23)

• 3x Adarkar Wastes

• 3x Caves of Koilos

• 1x Eiganjo, Seat of the Empire

• 3x Flooded Strand

• 2x Godless Shrine

• 2x Hallowed Fountain

• 3x Marsh Flats

• 3x Polluted Delta

• 1x Raffine's Tower

• 2x Snow-Covered Plains

Creature (31)

• 3x Eldrazi Displacer

• 2x Ertai Resurrected

• 4x Esper Sentinel

• 4x Giver of Runes

• 4x Skyclave Apparition

• 3x Solitude

• 4x Spell Queller

• 3x Stoneforge Mystic

• 4x Wasteland Strangler

Artifact (6)

• 4x Aether Vial

• 1x Batterskull

• 1x Sword of Fire and Ice

Sideboard (15)

• 3x Kor Firewalker

• 2x Rest in Peace

• 3x Sanctifier en-Vec

• 1x Sword of Feast and Famine

• 3x Thalia, Guardian of Thraben

• 3x Void Rend

Looks like a decent brew. Some thoughts:

• you can probably go down to 19 lands, seeing as your curve is so low.

• Kor Firewalker is probably a sideboard card instead of mainboard.

• i’d suggest ditching the green splash, its really messing up your manabase, and white can deal with artifacts/enchants on its own anyway.

• assuming you ditch green, then you should be able to just run basic Plains/Mountains. Lands that come in tapped are usually pretty unideal.

Welcome to Modern. Your MB looks ok, so I'll give you some SB ideas.

• Chalice of the Void: Putting a Chalice on 1 is great vs DS and decent vs burn; it hurts you but you can just get around it with Cavern of Souls.

• Auriok Champion: Good against DS and burn

• Kor Firewalker: Excellent vs burn, decent vs DS

• Prismatic Ending: I know you already have Path in your SB, but you might want to experiment with this. It hits all nonland permanents so there might be matchups where it's relevant for you (e.g., opp plays Ensnaring Bridge or something) since you are a 3 color deck technically

• Torpor Orb: Great against MH2 elementals and soul sisters.

• Tocatli Honor Guard/Hushbringer: Great against MH2 elementals and soul sisters.

Fountain of Renewal better than Ajani's Mantra.

I don't think Starfield Mystic is where you want to go with this deck, since you need to play more enchantments. Staff of the Sun Magus is also pretty slow. I'd go up to the 8 soul sisters and then maybe play Voice of the Blessed Jr. in the form of Ajani's Pridemate.

Kor Firewalker for the sideboard i guess?

I mean if burn is that much of a problem, you can play Kor Firewalker if you have to. Or Blossoming Calm. (I think Calm would be better for this deck though)
