Awesome list! I’ve been working on a similar idea first starting Jund and quickly realizing it’s too much. I’m wondering if you tested Violent Urge and your thoughts on it in the deck. It seems insane if on a trample creature with FOMO, but maybe it’s too narrow of a situation to include. Or the pump spell that cares about # of itself in the graveyard. Good luck in the Tourney with whatever you bring!

I wonder if invasion of ergamon would be better then ixalan the looting is really nice

Maybe, maybe not will get to see you there. Safe travels.

They can’t stop us if we all play Amalia

Fear of Missing Break Out

I'm kinda bummed that all my decks are kinda ass, hopefully something cool pops up in these round of regionals before mine at the end of month lol

How about spirits, is really good against control and i had some success against rakdos with the enchantments

u/b control ez win

I would suggest to you to replace black colour on your metagame's wheel percentage to white or just about any other colour as black blends with background.

In terms of deck recommendations for DC? Its important to go with data aswell as personal playstyle so that being said, for you, I would definitely recommend Azorius Control with a single copy of castle ardenvale as a wincon.

Hot take 🔥

Delirium scales let’s go!!

I miss the head in the middle of the pie charts :(

Just play humans, you shouldn’t lose a control or lotus combo matchup 😂

I’m going to DC and will be playing Abzan Greasefang.

Thanks for the vid, had to go to the first challenge and make sure monowhite angels was not a typo. Can't believe I had missed that list

🥷

Funny how phoenix hasn't become the dominant meta monster that EVERYONE swore it would. Format seems to have evened out and is actually in a pretty good place, lots of things are viable.

I have 3 possible Decks i would consider. But Ygra BG is my favorite: More Rock-Style with Combo Finish. Don't focus on fast Combo, play more removal and Discard fits the current Meta more

I ran into the Bloodletter Slasher combo deck a while ago on Arena while I was playing a pile of jank, some badly tuned reanimator pile. The deck folds to removal so hard, I just kept their stuff of the board and won, and my reanimation target was Shroudstomper. I also don't think I was playing any of the new good reanimation spells, it was like Bond of Revival or something

Just go with mono Black Twin XD

Rogues in Brazil RC whooooooooo

you should register legacy show-and-tell for DC (: it’ll go over hilariously, though not well

The slasher decks are really sick, getting a turn 4 combo without having to play any truly bad cards.. given that a gripful of duresses is pretty good against both UW and rakdos Prowess, I'd genuinely spend some time trying to optimize those

I play RB Midrage and in my opinion the uw kontrol match up is not as good as you think

My favorite new card from the set by far is Oculus alongside the core self-mill package/insane value train synergy cards that are Founding the Third Path and Picklock Prankster. I've had success with both Dimir (alongside Balemurk in case we mill over it) and Azorius (alongside the Monastery Mentor/Helping Hand reanimator package).

You should play 4 copies of Caretaker's Talent and some lands.

Playing greasefang! Feel like its in a really good spot in the meta right now- good MUs into UW, Jund Sac, Rakdos Midrange and Lotus Field, feeling pretty okay about the rakdos aggro MU and i think my sideboard plan for phoenix makes that match up closer than it has been in a while! Good luck in DC no matter what you chose play!

The way I see it, you want the aggressive fliers plus disruption elements of the Azorius Spirits archetype. But you also want to play the unholy triad of black power cards. Merging the two together, you want... Dimir Faeries. Bounce their things with Brazen Borrower. Flashback Thoughtsieze with Halo Forager. Picklock Prankster becomes basically Demonic Tutor. No one will ever see it coming.

if you're using this data to prep for DC, i would prep for everything in the final pie chart that had at least 10 copies across the weekend. there's a reason that many of them did well

Play what you feel most comfortable with, on top of what you find to be very consistent. I considered switching to another deck at one point when vamps and amalia seemed incredibly difficult for my deck to beat, yet I ended up sticking with my aggressive deck. Not only did I beat vamps as my first match, but also managed to win the rcq.

Uw spirits is looking tempting. With new hexproof enchantment, the curious obsession build becomes boggles with flash and countermagic.

What about ur pheonix splashing black or green for sideboard cards against high noon decks. Or go way up on spell pierce

As a convoke player these meta watch are depressing, even more than trying to win games in this meta were everyone pack more small sweepers than target removal

I'm not going, but Quintorius will always be my favorite pioneer deck!! So that's my vote!! 🤣

Will be playing Orzhov Humans, although at Calgary, not DC, a few weeks later

for what its worth, if the boros prowess is playing virtuoso, then you have an easy way to discard the awkward topdeck leylines. rakdos doesnt have that privilege

If I had to guess, the reason the prowess decks aren't playing the leyline would probably be that it makes the mulligans to greedy and too susceptible to early removal. Haven't really played either variation of prowess though, so take this statement with a grain of salt

It's 7, half times 2 is 7

If enough of us say UW will you be abstaining 😂

Companion revealing answer - technically if your deck is 80 basic lands you can theoretically chose any companion to reveal from your sideboard. Never said the deck had to be good, just that you could do it. Edit - Nvm... it got answered 1 minute later, I'm sad. I felt smart for a second...

Hi, may i please ask for a suideboard guide for rakdos prowess?

Sorry if this is a silly question but I am looking everywhere for the answer, hopefully someone here will see this and be able to help. I am trying to wrap my head around the "Sacrifice this creature: add🔹." part of the Broodscale. When I sacrifice and add the mana if i dont use said mana will it burn me at the end of turn or fizzle as its not added to mana pool?

I love this deck it goes over the top of most fair decks super well in my experience. Kenrith also goes infinite with two Lumras and a lotus cobra.

When zendikar rising came out I was messing with valakut exploration. Thinking that Valakut would be an insane finisher and card advantage in a deck like this

Phoenix is barely tier one anymore funny seeing the intros

Gotta love d00m worried about missing land drops in his 38 land deck

Tried this in Arena, really fun to play. I included 2 Ornithopter on main instead of the 2 prowlers and 2 Spell pierce for 2 Disputes in the sb.

Before the MH3 meta change, I used to main UB Ninjas in Historic on Arena. Such a fun deck to play.

Pretty sure that the deck would flow much better with 4 copies of ornithopter,especially since we got only 4 one drop creatures.also improves satoru drastically,as well as our next ninjutsu turn
