3 Card Blind - Meta Snapshot - June 2024 Results

[@magicthegatheringlover4277]

I think you were incorrect about why Phelia+Phantom beats flute+Idol. It is not that they can blink the tokens (the idol player can just activate in response and block forever). It is because Phelia allows you to blink flute until the end step and then play Phantom, getting rid of their land.

I'm so mad I did not notice disruptor flute, cause I submitted stingerback terror + city of traitors + simian spirit guide, thinking it would have been the same as mox ruby so "hehe monke" but actually had I submitted mox ruby it would have been win/lose (on the play they name the mox, on the draw can pay for the extra 3 if they name the dragon) instead of lose/lose (if they flute the dragon, can't pay for the 3).

i forgot other sol lands were legal before i submitted

i did not decide to be clever or unique 😔

1. Lol 2. Subnova has pointed out that he considered running it so that he can gain a win on the play vs storage + web of intertia by exiling crystal veins from graveyard to attack the 5th time.

[@davispo7550]

Burn the City down! Also, my gripe with White Orchid Phantom is that on the play it defeats all storage/depletion decks. Like Flute it can be an auto-win button (Though a T2 one unless you run Mox Pearl). Any viable land destruction has this effect, but Phantom leaves behind a significant body that's both a great clock and blocker. If Encroach or Alpine moon made a 2/2 First Strike Flier for an extra mana I'd be worried about them too.

yea I feel the flute super has to go. I think such targeted disputation has shown to be very dangerous in 3 card blind as it really seems to just knee caps alot of decks. Scion I was kind of fine still you brought up alot of its counters are ban, so I do feel it may be too restrictive of a card to counter (just because a counter exist doesnt make it health for the meta). And I think City of traitors should be an easy ban. I personally wouldnt ban Idol of the false gods at this moment, but if it painful one more meta, i vote heavily against it.

I think this was the first month I got 1st place in a pod, even if I tied for 1st...

[@MrTHEHANSFORD]

Thanks again for doing this! Ill join one of these months for sure.

[@danas8194]

Join! It’s fun

[@moonmist1390]

Idol completely solos ties decks, but despite that I actually did my 3rd best this month with the classic tabernacle force of despair unmask deck.

[@micahhonig1575]

If we ban city of traitors idk how good idol is gonna be. I'd like to see how it performs with double mana source or ancient tomb.

[@tylerowens]

Don't ban the mana source when the idol and especially the flute were the real problems.

[@yugioh1870]

Id like to see another no bans

[@davidhowell1415]

growth is nice

[@gkeuler]

MH3 shaking the whole thing up

[@Reluxthelegend]

Lots of MH3 cards it seems.

[@telph3223]

I'd like to see another month with no bans. Many people just submitted MH3 for the new novelty factor. I'd think diversity will be better next month even if no bans happen.

[@namesubjecttochange7781]

Flute idol is pretty tough to beat

[@Jesin00]

I submitted Disruptor Flute not because it was new, but because it was so hard to beat. I'm voting to ban it.
