Reanimator Meme Dream at the QUALIFIER | Foundations Sealed | MTG Arena

[@aegis3350]

my opinion on the pool: - i like going for the big combo with koma, but imo its too clunky. you need to get 2 combo pieces(both one-offs) in a match and have opponent not mess with your grave. also draw them at the right timing. for example sometimes the best play is to revive conquerer or even a dreadwing, instead of waiting to find koma. and there is a chance that koma is a dead card(even with so many discard effect). for example if you used zombify already, have koma in hand, then use refute, discard koma and draw a land. if you have a playable instead, you could discard the land. its hard to splash too with double green and without it you could cut campus. -id probably play elementalist adept and leyline. a flash creature would make the counters a little bit more flexible. also decent stats for leyline axe, if you play it. (and as a little bonus makes epiphany cheaper). while leyline can be a bit slow, it usually is a powerhouse in my experience and sometimes completely steals games when its in the opening hand. also it might be better in sealed, where sometimes people just have pools with bad/little removal to prevent some puny 2 drop from axing them heh. - i kinda like 1-2 erudite wizards. there are actually some solid ways to draw 2 in this deck(strix,dreadwing,epiphany, archmage, maybe buccaneer). i definitly prefer it over blight-priest. (and makes epiphany cheaper too). - id play self-reflection instead of koma and zombify as graveyard play. 4 mana copy is solid+value. or play it twice in late game as finisher. - i also would play fake your death. while it can be clunky when opponent has open mana, there are usually situations where it can play out well. your deck has a few etb triggers too. <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="60">1:00</a>:50 though i gotta say the koma was worth it for that play alone lol <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="72">1:12</a>:20 flash arbiter is cool, havent seen that before.

Thanks for the detailed feedback. Really appreciate it! I see where you're coming from regarding Koma. One thing I’d add in its defense is how easy it was to discard it in this pool, which made it feel pretty free to include. I actually debated not running any green sources at all - even though, in the end we cast it more often than we reanimated it. I think it’d be interesting to break down the %s on the actual odds of it becoming a liability. There definitely were some risks, so I totally get your perspective. All the alternatives make total sense. 🙏

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="60">1:00</a>:56 This is hilarious

[@dafore_]

Koma was well worth it for that one moment alone 😂 i'm glad it didn't go unnoticed haha

[@lmrbeerbellyl]

I played 7 sealed going 3-1 like 4 times. Brutal.

[@dafore_]

Sealed can be rough. I'd suggest going for bo1 play in-s next time. Extra losses are so much better EV on time imo.

[@lmrbeerbellyl]

@dafore_ i played a qualifiers a few weeks ago and it was bo1 6 wins before 2 losses. Not sure why I'm not seeing the 7 win before 3 losses que anymore. They are so greedy, lol.

[@nbrisendine457]

At least that's 6000 gems positive.

[@samgould100]

I'm tilted

[@whattupmang]

[@dafore_]

[@aminqasim9150]

I went 5-3 super sadge The only highlight was maining hidetsugu second rite thu

[@michaeljonathanblack]

Axe not making the cut seems insane

[@dafore_]

It's only passable in opening in this deck imo. Too big of a downside with creatures that don't carry it well and a plan that's stricly defensive. Even tho I was debating to include it, in hindsight i'm convinced it was the right choice.

[@dafore_]

I'd need to build it differently is what I'm saying. Which is a valid argument if you had that in mind.
