I forgot about Sowing Salt. I know there's a Tron deck running around here and there. The guys at my store have pooled together money to buy two playsets of every modern staple, so they change their decks every week. It's pretty difficult to keep up with that. My second modern deck is Tron actually, and the Ghost Quarters hurt me the most. I'll give Sowing Salt a try.

Lol I wish I had friends willing to delve into Modern staples like that.

I'm on my own on that front :'(

Manabase is a bit wonky. Always two Overgrown Tomb, 1 Blood Crypt, 1 Stomping Ground. I might try a Treetop Village over a Ravine or two, because being cheaper to activate is very relevant in the mirror.

For the sideboard, I'd advise looking at as many lists online as you can to get an idea of all of your options. Some gems are hidden all over the place.

As for the maindeck, I'm a fan. I like a Grim Lavamancer in the maindeck and possibly a Go for the Throat over a Terminate because vs. any aggro deck except Affinity the easier cost is great.

Yeah, the manabase was the part I was just kind of struggling with.

I think I'm going to give 1 Treetop Village a go for right now then perhaps switch to two once I better understand my LGS. I'm probably going to leave Grim Lavamancer in the sideboard because I like how the mainboard looks for right now, but I'll probably end up replacing one Terminate with Go for the Throat.

Thanks.

I'm wondering why Combust is the featured card.

This was my Naya Burn deck. But I think Combust is a goofy looking card. I might change it to Tarmogoyf since this deck's namesake is Tarmogoyf.

NoPantsParade Man, I was wondering what happened. I never remembered following a Tarmogoof deck. Hahaha

Sorry about that. I was on my phone at the time and didn't feel like getting fancy, so I just changed it.

I guess that means I Tarmogoofed again.

"Oops, I Tarmogoofed again."

THAT TIME IT WAS NOT OK.

GO BURN IN HELL YOU SICK BASTARD!

:(((

lol

Welcome to the family.

I said something along the lines of, "Goyfs are too expensive for a fucking MTG card." Then my tax return came, aaaaaaaand it went.

This is my little farewell to buying Magic cards since I'm starting college. I'm two Goyfs away from the set. I've been a part of team making bad financial decisions since freshman year.

My wife stopped caring on what cards I bought once I started bringing home wins. I recently sold my standard cards and some modern cards that I won at my LGS for around 600 in value. Add that to other monetary wins and she realizes that goyfs and MTG in general is a pretty sound investment. Bad decisions be damned!

It wasn't until after I sold my random cards, that I still had a bunch of crazy value in my binder still hanging around that she started buggin me about getting my cards insured. Lol.

Damn, hopefully I'll bring home some wins during college. The money would be nice.

Also, you said you live in or near Chapel Hill, right? Maybe I'll see you there at Atomic Empire, if you're still there.

Are you going to the modern PPTQ in Raleigh? It's on Saturday. I am going.

Nope. I'm still here in Charlotte. I move into my dorm August 13. I've got work and don't have time to drive up there. Wish I could though.

Damn. I will be in NC until January, then I'm off to Korea. So hopefully I can make it your way before I go, or vice versa.

Well that's a pretty damned long way from here. Hopefully I'll be able to make a couple tournaments and whatnot during college.
