I have decided to keep playing with this deck

IzzetFanatic Thanks a lot for the channelfireball article. It was really helpful and made a lot of good points. I updated my deck quite a bit and i'm going to be testing it this weekend. I'll see how it does but it should be much better. Thanks again!

car if you want to take a look I just updated my tron deck to better reflect the article. I agree with a lot of the changes (though I did put my own spin on them), and I even dropped Emrakul, the Aeons Torn. I'm a bit sad about that one because it was always amusing to see the sheer terror on peoples faces when I dropped that. Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger just doesn't have the same effect, though it is still great.

If you want to take a look why I updated the description of my deck which explains all of my choices

IzzetFanatic says... #5

I got a good idea. what about primeval titan? i can use it to get eye of ugin and more mana. that way i can beat down much harder each turn and remove the chance of getting a land. also,they are 8 dollars each so together they are less expensive than 1 spellskite

ya maybe. it seems like an ok idea. the fact that its double green makes it kinda hard to get but it might be an ok idea. playtest with it and see if you like it or not.

what do you guys think of void winnower and conduit?

January 9, 2016 9:58 p.m.

Jack-Frost says... #13

Void Winnower isn't worth it. by the time you get to 9 mana you should be dropping Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger. It slows you down a turn when you should be finishing the game, and honestly doesn't do enough to be worth while.

I've tested out Conduit of Ruin and while it's pretty good it just isn't good enough. It may save me a turn, but at the cost of dropping something out of my deck and every card is essential. Go ahead and tell me what you think, but I ended up not using it.

Eldrazi Noodle...... that's hilarious

I actually got the Alaskan Bull Worm joke from Corn Liberated.

You should have Oblivion Stone instead of All Is Dust, but cost is relevant.

We discussed All Is Dust vs Oblivion Stone before he last updated the deck and comments. He wanted to put his own personal spin on it and he also liked all is dust.

January 10, 2016 11:58 a.m.

Aah. Whatever works!

the main advantage to it is that i can cast it t3 before they win on t4. against aggro that makes all the difference.

To go to a GP, you pretty much will want a stock list. This means you'll need Oblivion Stone and a stock sideboard to match the meta.

Most GR Trons that I'm seeing are running 2 Newlamog and 0 Spaghetti. Just an observation, and I honestly don't know tron well enough to know the exact reasons.

2 Ghost Quarter in place of 2 Forest isn't a bad idea.

One last thing: in order to take this to a GP, you have to have cool looking basics. Dull basics are not a good start to top-8'ing. Forest is a popular choice, as is Forest. Forest and Forest are also popular. You really can't go wrong with Forest either. If you want to be really classy, paint your own altered forest, which will gain you respect from every dignified magic player in the room.
