Modern FNM Round 1: Sultai Midrange vs Mono Blue Belcher - 01/10/25

[@N1ke]

11:10. Sultai Midrange could just abrupt decay Belcher player's lotus so they would not have mana to pay for pact and they would lose instantly.

100% correct. I'm not too familiar with the belcher decklist at the moment. I know what it does, but I wasn't too sure if they run consign to memory mainboard(likely not). So I played overly conservative as if consign was the unknown in his hand to counter the pact trigger, and I wanted to save the abrupt decay for the Tameshi.

[@adrianpawela3357]

Do you have sultai decklist?

[@Chibley]

Bruh need that Sultai list

[@mikekenny1698]

Insane to me he is playing ice fang and not tarmagoyf

[@joshlyons1506]

The deck revolves around wanting to ninjitsu kaito, bane of nightmares(firm belief he is a very powerful planeswalker). So we run creatures that have flash or likely have the ability to get in without being blocked like Tamiyo, dauthi voidwalker, snapcaster, and ice-fang. We just never got one of our 4 Kaito haha

@ ohhhh okay yeah I was wondering what the payoff was now it makes sense, you could play test maybe some faeries? Spellstutter sprite would be hilarious

[@joshlyons1506]

​@@mikekenny1698 I can muster up a list with Bitterblossom, Vendillion Clique, and a couple newer flash faeries. Throw Kaito in and see where that goes.
