WEEE! How did you do this picture thingy? It is much less lag inducing than things like femme's page. I like this...

This deck sucks, but the formatting of the page is great.

Short of converting it to an exact replica of an existing archetype, how would you improve this deck?

Soo you're going to call my deck shit and move on without the courtesy of saying how to improve it. Cool.

Hey bud, how did you change your background picture of this deck?

Using CSS and Dropbox. Codeacademy has a really good web dev curriculum if you don't know CSS.

Ooh. Yes. All Is Dust was introduced as a replacement for an extra Anger of the Gods I didn't really need. I really like that... Ugin, the Spirit Dragon is a little too expensive to put in the main (the only thing I'd considered), but would be awesome sideboard.

Burn is really rough game 1 unless you get a great hand. You can't exactly race them with half the burn spells they have and half of your cards being dead draw. Every win I've managed against burn game 1 has included a Lightning Helix or Boros Charm on an Isochron Scepter.

Tron is really rough. Typically it comes down to whether or not they can find a Cryptic Command for my Ensnaring Bridge. I imagine it would be the same for control, although I haven't played against it. Cryptic Command on bounce/draw seems to be the bane of this deck.

Haven't managed to play against affinity, but I'm not totally sure how good this deck would be game 1 against such a fast and aggressive plan.

Also, I'm looking for someone to playtest with... Untap is cool with randoms, but I've played against enough tron, twin, and janky homebrews. I'd like to test against other decks. :P

Scorprix, something must be really weird with your computer/browser. Because currently, google says that my page is on average 8% faster on both mobile and on pc than this page.

Da lag... Da lag is real... Also, what's the background?

@FAMOUSWATERMELON

I think it's Arid Mesa.

@JexInfinite

Bruh, really? I've known you for a while, but that was just mean. If you criticize, it's kind of a rule of thumb to leave improvement advice.

Yeah, Defpotec, can you please remove this? Leave the css coding for profile use only. We do not want the common user to stay away from this site because they don't like/can't load the pages. Most unupgraded users (ie, the majority of our user base) does not like this sort of stuff.

@Femme_Fatale: I'm sorry, but just a few days ago you said that code on our deck pages was acceptable. I'd be willing to find whatever is making this deck load slow for some users and do optimizations... I didn't have a problem personally- I was intentionally careful and was under the impression that a fair number of regular users were customizing their decks.

@Defpotec

This doesn't load slow for me at all.

Only two people customize their decks to my knowledge, and that would be Blizz and Guardian. It's not the lag that's a huge problem, more the fact that it's simply irritating. Especially if it spreads. Profiles are fine because people aren't forced or anything to look at profiles, but decks are the basic use of this site. Making everything spancified, to borrow Femme's term, gets really annoying after a while.

Wow great HTML. if you need ideas for more, take a look at My home page ;)

This deck looks really nasty. I wounder how often do you win with it?

May 25, 2015 8:37 p.m.

Defpotec says... #23

It depends on the deck. I've won more than half of the games I've played on untap.in...

May 25, 2015 8:48 p.m.

whoah. nice name. How?

Femme_Fatale says... #25

I did not once say that code on deck pages was acceptable, and I'll never say it in my life time. You were probably confusing it with html coding for your deck description, which are things like spoilers, scroll boxes and their ilk.
