Thoughts on basic swamp for blood moon, or is it not common enough in the meta?
@hello_newton1356Ай бұрын
I don't think it's popular enough at this juncture. Also, we only really have reclaimer to find it under a blood moon since there's no way to cast WotR (can gsz for though) without swamp.

Also, Random thought about bans. I think it would be interesting if WOTC tried restricting more cards. You could still use the card in the deck, but grief + reanimate would happen less reliably.

I think one advantage of cradle control in the current skewed meta is that the matchup against scam is quite ok. Still not fun to play, but at least not a bad matchup. The redundancy we have is annoying for them.

I think we're favored since getting scammed is actually not great against us. Entomb is the scary card.

I ported the deck to Timeless (MTG Arena format) and I've been getting good games. While we don't have cradle, had to shift to a value pile with a combo finish. Very impressed with Sylvan Safekeeper. Nat Order for Atraxa then hold up Chord of Calling for Safekeeper is a great line. Love the vid!

Hi Newton. Great content as always. Talon has won you so many games already, it has been incredible for me as well. I think in that 3rd game against grixis delver you could have pitch cast Endurance instead of hardcasting it to save your artisan after you missed binning a creature with Mortuary. That way you don't rely on GSZ.

Eladamri from MH3 seems insane for this deck. It's massive card advantage without drawing cards. I mean, just seeing the top of your library and being able to fetch the card away if not needed) is already great. The ability to put an atraxa into play from hand or the top of your library in case it lands there is the icing on top!

@@hello_newton1356 Maybe I'm missing something. But isn't fiend only better if the opponent makes a mistake and doesn't wait until the trigger resolves. If they wait until the trigger resolves the templating doesn't matter (unless you can abuse the card with the trigger on the stack), then bat and fiend work the same. They both either take the removal spell or they take the combo card, which the opponent gets back after removing fiend/bat.

The black count is low but it's doable. That said, I don't think it's worth it as FA is not a card we want to pitch. As far as matchups, the goblins matchup is favorable and I don't think it's effective against atraxa. It only really beats sneak into emrakul. Very rarely will opponent show in emrakul naked.
