Ryotenchi says... #3

Tis what it is.. Dont matter anyways my version of burn destroys it.. so.. I may have to just give up til the format changes.

Guys it's decided I need to make Legacy reanimator once I finish the decks I have now

April 11, 2015 11:35 p.m.

Ryotenchi yeah I've also been taking a break from Modern. Just too frustrated with how Modern is right now.

April 11, 2015 11:36 p.m.

Canadian Is modern too one-sided right now? I find it to be pretty balanced at the moment.

April 11, 2015 11:37 p.m.

Ryotenchi says... #7

CanadianShinobi Yup. If Im not the only one frustrated something must def be wrong.. I just want to justify to myself, obtaining a MMA Dark Confidant playset.. Specially since there are played ones going for 50$.

Totally need another ADGQ to watch.. cant wait til next year for it! Watchin windwaker speed runs from 2 years ago Im so bored...

April 11, 2015 11:39 p.m.

FAMOUSWATERMELON Objectively speaking Modern is fine. Sort of. However, the metagame right now is missing Control as a contending archetype, which is bothersome in its own regard.

One of the problems I have with Modern currently is the attitude of players. From what I've been seeing both Abzan Midrange and Burn have posted similar results to that of Pod and Delver and yet no one complains about such things. We are starting to see a resurgence of Jund, and I've recently seen some Grixis Delver. However, the fact remains that the meta is large either Midrange or Aggro. Control or Tempo decks are far and few between, or nonexistent altogether. To me, this makes for a stale, boring meta and thus I take no enjoyment in playing in such an environment. Innovations seems to be stifled. Others will say that I'm crazy, or "Who cares what you think? So what if you don't like the current meta?", but such arguments could have been applied to those exact same people prior to the bans in January.

As it stands I feel that Modern is at standstill and will not move unless Wizards reinvigorates players and prints something that doesn't slot into Abzan.

FAMOUSWATERMELON i dont think there's a way for me to give you any evidence without you being able to doubt it....

just got back from gaming, and got food on the way home.

JexInfinite, what am I eating, where did I go, and how many sleeves do I have next to me right now? empty, of course.

April 11, 2015 11:52 p.m.

Well just the fact that you guys live in two different continents makes me doubt it...

Also, if this is some sort of inside joke, ignore me and my lack of comprehension of human emotions.

April 11, 2015 11:55 p.m.

.................................mno.

April 11, 2015 11:56 p.m.

Ryotenchi says... #12

Agreed, 100 fold CanadianShinobi... Burn takes a dump on my bears and Kor Firewalker doesnt help much..

...worse, burn and abzan are the standard by which I consider a prospective deck.. the only deck that has held up to those is burn.

I would honestely like to see entirely new archtypes... IE Jeskai Ascendancy storm.. I feared it at first.. now its just some deck it seems.

April 11, 2015 11:56 p.m.

sirbar says... #13

Derp, love the new name! Looks so much better and is easier on the eyes.

FAMOUSWATERMELON yes you are missing the joke. Go back about a page in jc and you will see where this came from.

April 11, 2015 11:59 p.m.

Burn has been around forever but it's made a massive jump lately. The meta is healthy-ish but it's so damn boring, everything is burn, abzan, splinter twin, and idk what else. No control, no Jeskai shenanigans, nothin.

April 12, 2015 midnight

This is when you build a rogue deck and crush the heathens.

April 12, 2015 12:02 a.m.

sirbar shaddup!

noooooooooo...... we live together.

dammit, someone get epoch in on it to help us please!

April 12, 2015 12:02 a.m.

sirbar says... #17

Were do you guys get this meta at. Besides the meta websites, which shouldn't matter unless that represents what you play against, is this reflected anywhere? My local meta has not shown anything of this and neither has untap. On untap I haven't played against a t1 deck yet. Just curious.

April 12, 2015 12:03 a.m.

This is how powerful Epoch is. He comes BEFORE you call for him. Amazement.

April 12, 2015 12:04 a.m.

Ryotenchi says... #19

Epoch, I couldn't build a rogue deck that actually works to save my life.. It always comes down the efficient options.. that once you add those.. why not add this.. then this.. and just keep doing that.. and then its Abzan..

I delete those decks... :(

April 12, 2015 12:06 a.m.

epoch, plz delete comment #16 through 19 on page 48. plz?

April 12, 2015 12:07 a.m.

sirbar it's a bit of both. And Epochalyptik yeah but I've yet to find a rogue deck that I enjoy playing. Especially since I like winning and I like control. Since control is utterly worthless I'm bored.

April 12, 2015 12:08 a.m.

Ryotenchi says... #22

That... and replace control with midrange for me... Apparently, since I keep trying to build them..

April 12, 2015 12:12 a.m.

This is motivating me to make some modern deck... I'm not sure what it will be, but I WILL MAKE IT!!!

...but not right now, cause I'm exhausted. Plays will do that to you. Bonne nuit.

April 12, 2015 12:15 a.m.

sirbar says... #24

Would I be right in saying that many problems could be solved in wizards printing a decent card draw spell without delve?

April 12, 2015 12:16 a.m.

Ryotenchi says... #25

Wish my pc could handle emulating Windwaker.. :( I go into combat and fps drops out.. Swear I got more than enough pc for it.

April 12, 2015 12:18 a.m.

god I love windwaker. has anyone watched the gamegrumbs play it? iz so good!

April 12, 2015 12:19 a.m.

xzzane says... #27

Man, windwaker was a blast. Such a great game.

April 12, 2015 12:25 a.m.

Ryotenchi says... #28

Derp.... Old version of Dolphin.. seems fine now..

April 12, 2015 12:27 a.m.

sirbar potentially, though there are other problems, such as Control can no longer effectively counter and remove the threats being played. I would say there needs to be a 3cmc instant that allows you to draw 2. Such a card is not unfeasible since Esper Charm does thar, but esper charm is really mana intensive due to needing all three colours.

April 12, 2015 12:29 a.m.

what? old version of dolphin? the hell are you talking about.

anyhow, whats ur favorite part? Personally, I LOVED the colors. it was fucking beautiful, esspecialy the first part b4 the shit hit the fan.

April 12, 2015 12:30 a.m.

sirbar says... #31

CanadianShinobi what do you mean by not being able to effectively counter spells? And yes that would be a good card for modern but we will have to wait until control gets much worse in standard I feel.

April 12, 2015 12:35 a.m.

Ryotenchi says... #32

Derpling, Dolphin Emulator If yeh got enough pc, yeh can emulate old gamecube games... Only reason it seems yeh need a good pc: the emulation isnt perfect.

April 12, 2015 12:37 a.m.

sirbar a Control deck needs to do a lot of things. It needs counters, removal and a win con. But that requires an incredible mana investment. One of the reasons Control is terrible against something like Abzan is that Abzan can field more threats than control has answers. And that's the problem. Control decks, due to a lack of efficient cards and means to maintain counters and removal, is currently under performing. That's why Dig and Cruise were godsends, they provided the fuel control decks needed.

April 12, 2015 12:41 a.m.

okay THAT makes a lot more sense.

April 12, 2015 12:42 a.m.

sirbar says... #35

AHHH that makes more sense.

April 12, 2015 1:04 a.m.

Ryotenchi says... #37

Heard hes got some sort of warrant in his home country again... Hope it sticks this time..

April 12, 2015 1:34 a.m.

Ryotenchi says... #38

Argentina.. W/e.. I have my reasons for hating people like him.. and the shame they bring on people into what I am...

Femme, should I just give up on that deck?

April 12, 2015 1:37 a.m.

so... lengths? mine is 8 inches.

April 12, 2015 1:42 a.m.

sirbar says... #40

wat?

April 12, 2015 1:47 a.m.

whut u mean what?

the lengnth.

April 12, 2015 1:48 a.m.

sirbar says... #42

length of what?

April 12, 2015 1:49 a.m.

Ryotenchi says... #43

Since Im assuming.. 3.

Cause I dont know about you.. but Im not watching lewd things while I talk to peeps over the interwebs.

No idea who even mentioned length of anything though. o.O

April 12, 2015 1:54 a.m.

well, I was the one who mentioned it.

sirbar isnt it obvious?

April 12, 2015 1:55 a.m.

Ryotenchi says... #45

Lol Derp. XD I like how yeh dont even deny the accusation of watching lewd things.

Im going back to the PG side of things. :P

April 12, 2015 1:59 a.m.

Femme_Fatale says... #46

Men, I hope you realize that length doesn't have anything to do with pleasure. Sure some girls like length, but girth is more important in terms of size. And on top of that, skill and technique. Finally, more girls will and have consistently in the past orgasmed more from cunnilingus than they ever will from the regular P in V.

(dislikes men talking about length)

April 12, 2015 2:01 a.m.

Ryotenchi says... #47

To be honest, length dont mean anything if yeh dont use it...

I only derive pleasure from card board crack and another thing I cant have..

Its like all I do... yeh think I would be good at magic..

April 12, 2015 2:06 a.m.

Femme_Fatale just chaeckin, r u a man or woman?

anyhow, I was tlaking about my eel you creeps. I have a pet eel.

seriously, what the fuck is wrong with you people?

April 12, 2015 2:14 a.m.

can someone help me? it wont show.

April 12, 2015 2:19 a.m.

Ryotenchi says... #50

Nothing, your the one who intended us to think something dirty.
