Thing In The Ice Turns Phoenix Into Control Deck | SOI Remastered | Historic BO3 Ranked | MTG Arena

[@Takobyte]

Reminder faithless looting is a common in SOI remastered instead of a rare from strixhaven mystical archive. Also, BO1 ladder is a still a Kunai Exploiter scourge 💀(from my own experience, there's like 3 different people competing for #1 rank using kunai atm, even saw 1 kunai exploiter in BO3 once)

I am so sad for having spent the wildcards back then, but it was a very long shot hoping for it to be released in a lower rarity.

[@MisterManuva]

I would like to try Thing in the Ice in a UB tempo shell to take advantage of the sinergies with Heartless Act: if you cast it to remove the counters from Thing, you have a 7/8 that bounces your opponent creatures to clear the way for attacking, at instant speed! Means you can untap and start pressuring opponent's life total with counterspell and removal backup, from turn 4. At the moment I don't really want to invest wildcards into this deck, but it seems fun on paper

[@Takobyte]

That's pretty cool actually lol. Might be worth exploring.

[@GamingwithKentuckianJD]

im really loving all the variants im seeing of this deck very nice. got to get my butt to mythic next season :(

[@FullBazaar]

"Hello hello & Welcome aboard" i'll watch your vid later, i just woke up. 😍

[@heferus6144]

I want to try Thing in the Ice in a Solemnity deck. Too bad i'm poor at the moment and can't waste wild cards on decks of dubious quality,

[@Takobyte]

Solemnity control?!

[@diegoperezsommariva2509]

What are your thoughts on the pieces of the puzzle card that came with innistrad?

[@Takobyte]

Too slow! We have faithless looting which is even banned in modern! Might be what you have to play in explorer though as they don't have looting or expressive iteration

[@veegan1865]

winning streak with this deck(some changes excluding).its strong. cuz this deck can beat any deck. but i think weak by control. so need some change on sideboard.

[@LEGGOMYEGGO206]

I’ve been playing atraxia and oracle of the alpha would love to see you try it out or anyone for that matter. It uses a reanimater shell like everyone is use to

[@Takobyte]

Seems spicy, but I think im atraxa'd out for now with arena championship reanimator decks running around 😅

[@xdkurt]

hello dear Tako, may I ask you a serious question? I'm tired dealing with izzet wizard/burn((H BO1)), is there any deck on your mind that is ez win against it? I really need an answer to beat it, no matter the cost (no matter how bad in other match ups) I just wanna teach those izzet wizards some lessons, help me pls, thank you!

[@Takobyte]

It's got to be rakdos/jund mid.

[@xdkurt]

@@Takobyte RB mid is good in Explore since value cards can snow ball well, but in historic there are few upgrades for RB mid, not as much as other decks do. usually the vampire cannot survive another upkeep, even if,-2-2 is not enough to kill any wizard, as well for bone crush giant 2 dmg. only 4 push is not enough. You can try RB against wizard your self, I don’t think it works well, or do you have any special list?

[@dkorb2739]

That’s crazy so many are trying to compete for #1 with kunai They probably made alt accounts for it or something

[@Takobyte]

So sad 😔
