Stale Pro Tour???
Standard forum
Posted on Feb. 3, 2017, 2:10 p.m. by Zaueski
As I was watching Pro Tour AER everything seemed extremely stale. The same 2 decks showed up 9 out of the possible 10 times: Mardu Vehicles and B/G Snek Counters. Does anyone know if the cooler and more interesting decks are just off screen or is the format really just that stale? Even Saheeli Twin barely saw camera time. I hope day 2 brings better decks and the pros haven't just written this format off as solved.

I said sulk, not suck.
You're entitled to your opinion no matter how ridiculous it is, I'm just saying hold off judgment for awhile. Half the decks from pro tour Kaladesh top8 vanished right after the tournament and I'm just saying if you really want to beat Mardu vehicles you can. But you refuse to see that and prefer to whine.

I just read argeaux's game day report and it seems like there were a variety of decks, mostly brews and no Mardu vehicles. So standard might not be completely broken.

pumpkinwavy hhahhahah you are doing it again ... ''You're entitled to your opinion no matter how ridiculous it is,'' It is not ridiculus, PLUS, i have the answer to every deck you can think of... The problem in standard are the prices and the lack of creativity.
It is a dead format, because of all the net-deckers and the powerfull cards that favor particular colors.
I AM A STANDARD GUY and all my friends have given up the format, because of the prices, soooo, don't go around telling std is thriving, cause you lie to yourself

You can't just keep asserting "standard is dead, standard is dead" without backing it up with anything other than useless anecdotes and hope it suddenly becomes true. What actual evidence do you have of standard's demise? And for deck diversity, well at the local fnm level people are clearly still playing their brews and we'll see about the top8 of the standard GP going on right now.
I just looked at the twitch stream of the GP and it's grixis control vs sultai delirium. Seems diverse to me.

pumpkinwavy I am just stating the fact, that i have seen MANY of my friends, give up standard. In addition to that, the only people i know, that play standard, are people that throw money at mtg.
Also, you want a fact, that standard is dying? look up for standard showdown drops mic
