It's crazy how long this town flew under the radar

Honestly so true

Damn, that sporadic infection 1 off is put to great use in that last game. Gonna craft this one and try it out.

I saw a recent list on Reddit running Lunar Insight instead of Entity Tracker - more often than not it's a draw 2-3 although it's sorcery speed. It just feels bad flashing that tracker in to have it die to removal instantly and you get no value. This is their comment below on the difference: "Tracker drawing three cards feels like winning the game, and that's not because the 2/3 body matters; why not just draw three the easy way instead? (This is hyperbole; Tracker will sometimes be better than Insight ever could be, and Insight can also falter in the face of e.g. Lockdown. But I've truly been impressed by it.)" Anyways, just wanted to get your thoughts on it.

I haven’t tried lunar yet and I’ve been wanting to. It’s one of the spoiled cards that I’ve been excited for. I just have not been able to work it into a deck quite yet. I tried a different version of dimir for today but I will look to try the lunar card next time. Some insight on my thought process on the card differences. Tracker is easily removed, however the way the game is “suppose” to pan out realistically to remove it should be their last card or close to the last card based on the hand disruption we have been trying to force. Beyond that from my experience the flash part is everything. Being able to hold up nowhere to run, get out, other counter spells if running, this town isn’t big enough, means that if they don’t do anything you can flash it in and never go shields down. Lunar is great or effects like it because yes we use it on our turn and at a sorcery speed, but it’s instantly gives us value and rewards us for our early game plan. The hand disruption should give us an opportunity to cash in on this type of effect as well. The main downside is using our mana on our turn agains a pretty aggressive meta Lunar is sorcery Tracker is removable I would argue tracker is better but I also haven’t tried the other so who is to say.

This a cool dimir build to try. I hate that pet so much, can you turn it down at all? It's as fun as hearing my neighbors bored dog barking through the walls.

Not going to lie I thought i had it muted I’ll double check though. I typically play with my game muted entirely so I didn’t notice
