@Nef & DERPLINGSUPREME: You know, other people would like to participate in this thread, too. This isn't your private Facebook chat.

Deathrite shaman is mana acceleration, some end game damage and a little bit of sustain. Stoneforge mystic is a tutor that also cheats things into play. The power level isn't even comparable. Stoneforge mystic is so much more busted than drs. Drs will never see an unbanning, and as stoneforge mystic is purely better, I seriously doubt it will either.

In other news, as long as we're doing this whole thing about not advertising, I'm one vote away from triple digits on my top deck :)
Nah, just kidding. Just wondering though Lama, do you ever go to sleep man? It's like two in the morning there.

It pertains to you two because you eat entire pages just having a back-and-forth with one another. If you really want to do that, post on one another's walls. This is a community chat.

I want Mother of Runes too.
But at the same time I don't. Why? Because Abzan will use it.
April 25, 2015 8:20 p.m.
Whatever comes into the format as an Abzan killer needs to be at least part red or blue so that they won't likely use it. That's just my opinion, but printing Abzan hate colors in Abzan colors seems counterproductive.

Junk has all the goodstuff. Funny how that works...
April 25, 2015 8:21 p.m.
Yes... Fuck Abzan... Im building a burn deck geared completely against it.. (Voice of Resurgence...)
(Mostly cause people kept calling my jank bears mirror match... He was playing Little kid junk.. >.<)

NOT abzan, its junk.
normal, insane, unbeatable junk.
its way too good though. it beats almost EVERYTHING its paired against, save for a super fast burn deck.

Am I the only person that has wanted to run Guttural Response in a sideboard.
April 25, 2015 8:27 p.m.
DERPLINGSUPREME says... #19
no, iz a good card. just not against abzan for obvious reasons.
April 25, 2015 8:28 p.m.
FAMOUSWATERMELON says... #20
Nef NO!!!! I RUN IT!!!
Although only in Jeskai Ascendancy storm. Not as a regular sideboard.
April 25, 2015 8:28 p.m.
I'm pretty sure it hoses abzan. Your abzan metas don't run counterspells?
April 25, 2015 8:28 p.m.
Ow... Inhaled my coffee when I read that Nef..
They should run blue.. xD
April 25, 2015 8:32 p.m.
Someone please make an abzan midrange deck with that... thing in it. (abzan splash blue that is)

Seriously though everybody's like hey Abzan hate cards.... in Abzan colors! That's a good idea right?
April 25, 2015 8:35 p.m.
Hey lama and Ryotenchi, maybe I should add blue to my junk deck... :D
April 25, 2015 8:37 p.m.
ThisIsBullshit says... #30
Burn is doing pretty well, actually. It's blue that needs new stuff.
April 25, 2015 8:38 p.m.
Sad part is.. my janky combo casual deck is basically abzan with a blue spash.. but not for counter spells. :(
"I was doing it before it was cool..." -Or so I wish I could say... <3 my 3 Foil Thrummingbird.

Outpost Siege is a card that poops on abzan that they can't use...
April 25, 2015 8:39 p.m.
Find a way to make Cryptic Command work Scorprix. :3 Thatll be a challenge right?
April 25, 2015 8:41 p.m.
VampireArmy says... #36
Yep and gives you straight up card advantage that they often can't do shit about :P

ThisIsBullshit But if the big Y has stopped us from coding, I can't get as many points on my awesome decks! PEOPLE LIKE MUSIC AND BACKGROUNDS!

DERPLINGSUPREME says... #46
you have a sort of.... sad way of getting points.
April 25, 2015 9:13 p.m.
ThisIsBullshit says... #47
I don't. I don't ever listen to the videos in deck descriptions unless they're deck tech and even then, rarely.
And backgrounds fuck my phone up.
Also derp: the creatures aren't the problem.
April 25, 2015 9:16 p.m.
DERPLINGSUPREME says... #48
what?
what creatures arent the problem?
did I forget a conversation I had with you?

@JexInfinite: I'll mention that music and backgrounds piss me off. They increase load times and too often make my eyes burn (how many people here are actually implementing tasteful backgrounds?). Also, NEVER set anything to autoplay.
