>>46465506
I bought some on MTGO a while back for Shardless, glad to have them now. Same with Sword, bought a set just because they were like 50c ea or whatever.

Wish I had bought some in paper but I'll hold off until it's proven to be decent in a deck.
>>
>>46465415
nah not even that, thopter sword is simply a great ass deck if people actually threw enough toolbox things in there, thats how the deck was always played.
>>
>>46465358
>>46465513
This. Milling for 22ish T5 with Forgotten Creation + Sphinx's Tutelage and then casting Startled Awake means the enemy is gonna be down around 41-27 cards. That's half a deck or more.

And by that turn the opponent has drawed 12 cards, so he should have around 10-ish cards left in his library, so even the slightest mill would kill.

Maybe Mesmeric Orb would be enough to do the job.
>>
>>46465415

>Wild Nacatl
Literally no one bitched about this card getting unbanned
>Bitterblossom
Niche decks galore

No gave a shit. If it were Dread Return it would be a different story, and even if they unbanned DR, it would only make a meme deck like Esper Rally tier 2.5-2
>>
>>46465715
It's shut down by Abrupt Decay and Scavenging Ooze while destroying decks like Burn and Affinity post-board with cards like Lingering Souls and Stony Silence. I'm hoping it brings fair decks back to life.

what are the meme decks in modern
>>
>>46465752
Yeah that's kind of my point; that most of the ban list shouldn't be banned in the first place. Why not ban Rakdos Cackler while we're at it?
>>
>>46465782
All of them anon. Every single last deck is a memedeck because Memedern is the memest of meme formats.
>>
>>46465782

Emeria Control
Jeskai Ascendancy variants
Eggs variants
Esper Bridge
Dredgevine
Taking Turns
8whack

>>46465827
what are some other meme formats
>>
>>46465770
i just hope it drags control back out from the depths of hell.
kinda hoping this dropkicks faeries to stop being shit as well, between thopter sword, bitterblossom, clique and a whole horde of countershit it could get really good.
>>
>>46465869
Pauper, where we pretend that Delver isn't busted.
>>
>>46465881
The problem with Faeries is that it isn't a control deck, it's a tempo deck. And if you want to play tempo, why aren't you playing URx Delver?
>>
>>46465869
well theres MemeDH and Pauper.
also legacy is hands down flat the best format.
>>
>>46465885
Dies to chainer's :^)
>>
>>46465796

Wild nacatl is actually good in modern though, not crazy but he goes in a good deck

Bitterblossom not quite as good but still goes in a deck

Grave troll on the other hand was just a stupid unban because it doesn't do much without dread return also unbanned

yes none of these cards should have been banned but no people aren't stupid to think thoptersword might change up the metagame for the better

Currently not running any bridges, cause I like my counter spells and it doesn't work with Thirst for knowledge. I will be trying another variant with Liliana, discard, and bridges, and I'll see how that goes. For the momebt, the 3 main deck skites, 4 chalices and counters have been buying me plenty of time against infect, burn and zoo, the deck is really sweet, and if you just have the 2 combo pieces and you're on the play you can just gain life like a mad man. Also Chalice and the counters make it pretty dang solid against combo. Tolaria West it great also.

Ancestral Vision helps fairies a lot, but I don't think the deck has room for Thopter/Sword combo.

Also, Faeries will never be a good control deck. It's creatures are too fragile and aggressive. It's more like a big tempo deck. Midrange-ish, but trading grind power for more disruption and flexibility.

Do people not understand that control is not a real thing anywhere besides standard?

This is the easiest way to spot a small minded newer player, control can only exist in a format where you can accurately predict the meta game and run counters and removal specifically good against that meta, formats like modern and legacy are too wide for a real control deck to exist in almost any capacity.

Control? In Modern? Impossible.

Semi-serious question: having read several of the /tg/ threads on the matter, was there anyone that DIDN'T see the Eye of Ugin ban coming from a mile away? Because if there was - especially if they're some bigshot pro tour player that denied it on their blog or something - I want to go and laugh at them.

Only retards who didn't want eye banned are RG Tron fucks who think their inevitability isn't ridiculous

There were some dumbass Tron players who thought they were too special to eat collateral from Eldrazi's punishment, but I can't think of any real players who claimed this.

>>46466538
I honestly think banning temple is worse for Eldrazi

>>46466409

I'm pretty sure control is a thing in vintage

Vintage has the widest card pool, but the meta is fairly narrow so maybe you're right maybe that's the perfect place for control

So we are back to a semi stale meta? Good, let's have something fresh, like a fucking new set full of nostalgia.

Eldrazi tron is looking good so far. The tron lands compensate for the eldrazi deck as it gives them a consistent way to get mana and eldrazi temple compensates for tron's lack of inevitability by giving it more late game creatures which are effectively immune to counterspells.

This. It's taking years between potentially relevant unbannings. How is a game meant to survive when players are expected to play a dull stagnant format for a year at a time? A year is more than enough time to quit playing.

>playing wurmcoil or ugin in eldrazi tron
Eldrazi tron plays karn 5-7 with worldbreaker and gets a better eye of ugin with conduits. It also plays thought-knot seer for early game support and eldrazi temple ensures you at the very least get a turn 3 thought-knot even if you haven't found your other lands yet.
>>
>>46466593
>>46466599
Funny thing is, I'm a (somewhat casual and rather budget) RG Tron player, and even I knew Eye eating banlist was inevitable.
>>
>>46467586
It's quite ironic to read that seeing as my girlfriend and several of her friends were very eager to learn the game. My gf even went on and joined the Legacy master race because she didn't get any shit she used to get in Standard and Modern. If you play EDH you should notice playgroups also tend to be pretty even, genderwise.

But anyway, you're right. Maro's market research is bullshit because someone on the internet told me women can't be possibly interested in card games. You probably know these things better than Wizards.

Oh I'm not saying that I don't run eldrazi, I have both seer and smasher in the side. But I have never wanted to ever draw into nothing but an urza land.

My anecdote was merely a response to the "if you disagree you must be a virgin"-tier implication. The core of the argument has always been the internal market research statistics as reported by Maro.

Control will never be a thing in Modern until it'd get something like Force of Will or J:TMS

Nah, Legacy is chill as fuck. The high barrier of entry is the best part since it lets long-time players enjoy the cards they've owned forever and prevents mouth-breathers from joining in

The real problem with Eldrazi was that standard players only had to spend like $150 to get their deck modern playable which led to a ton of standard players fucking up the already fragile Modern

Was playing Eldrazi before the ban, and I don't mind the Eye ban, will just replace the Mimic by other creatures, same for Eye, will be replaced by some other utility land.
Eye into lots of Mimis was rare. What was not rare was playing turn 2 TKS into T3 Reality Smasher and that what was busted, on the play, you just took 9 damages and it's your turn 3. I threaten lethal with another Reality smasher on turn 4.

Without temple the deck cannot do that, sure i can shit 4 mimics on turn one, but without temple, I don't have any follow up and can just concede to pyroclasm.

So yeah in my opinion, and having played the deck for the last 4 months, temple was busted.

Just look at this :
Temple, Temple, TKS, Smasher, Mimic, Mimic, any land
is waaaaaay better than
Eye, Eye(or any other land), TKS, Smasher, Mimic, Mimic, any land

First hand you curve Mimic, TKS, Smasher
Second hand is double mimic turn one and then nothing turn 2.

So, since you're a pro player, which one is more busted ?

>funnily enough, this is what everyone on every forum and podcast was saying about the eldrazi.

The Eldrazi of BFZ/OGW are only powerful because of lands that were released 4+ years ago. If there was no Temple or Eye, it's quite likely that nobody would play Eldrazi.

If Eldrazi would still be playable without Temple or Eye, neither would've been banned. The fact that they only banned Eye shows that the deck wouldn't have a leg to stand on without a Sol Land to accelerate its creatures.

Now to saw that BFZ/OGW as a whole haven't impacted Modern, that's false, but the Eldrazi in particular were powerful in spite of their design, not because of it.

I could see the Heartless Summoning builds come back in vogue
