I need to do something else. So I'm selling most of my tix. If you want to buy, contact me via whatsapp/FB/IG/Wechat, thanks.

This is probably the best infinite limited deck I have built. The interactions between cards: Vizier of the Scorpion  + Domri / Band Together Sorin + Aid the Fallen +   Spellkeeper Weird = Infinite Finale of  Eternity Massacre Girl + Aid the Fallen / Sorin = Wrath whenever I want to have #warofthespark #MTGo #MTGA #MTG

Against Control - the kind of control doesn't seem very strong in the current meta nor the new meta, we got several cards, all Gruul. Cindervines pressures an opponent's spells casting, directly shut down Izzet Phoenix. Its enchantment removal effect neutralizes Conclave Tribunal type cards. Rhythm of the Wild makes both conterspells and sorcery speed removals effortless. Gruul Spellbreaker provides a more solid way against Settle the Wreckage. So, control is totally ruled off in a meta full of Gruuls, if the meta IS full of Gruul. Let's look at the decks a Gruul facing: 1. Aristocrats A wall of Indestructible, Lifelink and Deathtouch, how do your Nullhide Ferox pass through it? Even with a Carnage Tyrant, the best it can do is just a few damages recovered easily, then it dies to a blocking Pontiff. 2. Mono Red After casting Rhythm followed by a Gruul Spellbreaker, it eats a Lava Coil the next turn, your life downs to a horribly low level, thanks to...

Izzet Drake with Thud After a few Goblin Ramp testing, I forsook it. It's just too casual to win any game after Bronze rank. Instead, I netdecked Izzet Drakes from MTGOLDFISH lists.  With a pinch of innovation, besides moving Fight with Fire and Banefire into the new deck, I added Thud. Why use it? 1. Surprise Playing against Drake decks, your opponent always counts damage range when determining whether to hold a removal in hand or just cast a planeswalker/big threat main turn. For instance, you have a 7/4 Drake and the opponent's at 15 life, he or she may choose to cast a Carnage Tyrant main turn rather than holding Vraska's Contempt if the damage from Drake doesn't feel like lethal the next turn.  But if you draw a Thud, your hit range doubled and the opponent won't expect that to happen.  2. Low cost Let's say you have 5 lands on the battlefield, 6 spells in graveyard on turn 5. You cast Maximum Velocity on a drake in you han...

This is my first try. Game Plan: 1. Ramp up mana and deals 10 damages in the early stage. 2. Kill with a Kickered Flight with Fire or Banefire. Ramp cards: Skirk Prospector Runaway Steam-Kin Finisher(?) Flight with Fire Banefire Video here: Version 2: Warchief is replaced by Warboss More videos will be added(need to play it against mainstream decks).

Followers, readers, friends, strangers! I am back! Besides deck building / MTGO trading, my blog will include more limited/competitive event topics from now on. I stream everyday: Twitch channel name Lotus_ring Streaming time 6:00 - 9:00 (PT) 14:00 - 17:00(UTC) First of the first of the first...... Some people believe MTGO is dying. It's not true, please. As long as it holds official events and the prizes are surging, it is very safe. What will happen to card prices? Keep dropping. They are controlled my Treasure Chest content, which is directly monitored by WOTC. So, they want cards to plummet, no one can do anything against it. Reasons behind their decision? I probably got a handle of it but won't tell here（It's related to the MTGO profit model）. What should players do? Enjoy the game! You can build more decks with cost lower than ever. The prizes is biggest in history. What's so bad? Next article is about my Dominaria draft adventures o...

I don't think an aggro deck needs 4 drops, not to mention cards like Immortal Sun. Aggro, used to be called "Weenie" is all about speed. But the biggest problem about tribal decks is the mana fixing. If I want to play a fast deck in a secure way, I shouldn't expect much from the 8 fixings we get in this standard. A deck needs to be nearly mono color to survive at an early stage of the game and escalate pressure on the opponent. So we first choose black or white as the main color for our Vampir deck. The white side: The black side: Removals: Support cards: Realized what you just saw? They are just TOO SMALL compared Merfolk or Dinos. I stopped here and gave up the plan to build a Vampire tribe...... After testing, I gave up. Sorry. Vampires can be good, but not in this Standard. Going to test more Midrange decks.
