Spinny Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 Was planning on making a modern BG or BU control/discard focused modern deck with this set (Still trying to do something with these waste nots) , with how good some of the black, blue and green is looking, hopefully it will work.

.Rai Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 I was counting on someone bringing up those two cards :p. They don't quite count because of the block they're in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixty Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 Sword of the Animist will be an EDH ramp staple, among the ranks of Solemn Simulacrum, Burnished Hart, and Journeyer's Kite. I'm gonna have trouble figuring out which red/green spells and red/green spell support (Pyromancer's Goggles) are gonna make it in Wort. I'm also going to have trouble finding spots in other EDH decks of mine for a lot of other cards in this set. Lili is probably gonna make it in Sek'Kuar, hope I can snatch a black-on-black promo.

Airride Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 Pyromancer's Googles are literally Pyrovision goggles. Set is good, at least for me. Lots of neat blue stuff, and plenty of good counterspells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 > red card with reach ooooh that's new See, the funny thing is, I think red is supposed to be secondary in Reach, or at least supposed to get once in a blue moon. The fact that they haven't actually done anything with that was always the odd thing. Hopefully red will be getting a little more. Anyway, the WU gold card being a perfect addition to my WU fliers theme for my cube made me very happy. Side from that, Gather the Pack seems really good (at least for what I want to be doing in standard decks) and Read the Bones coming back is sweet. What I find interesting is I don't think Lili's brother or the Ravenman actually got cards that used that art. I mean, I could have missed them, but I didn't see them.

Red's not secondary in reach, as far as I know. Green is primary, there are no secondary colours, and white is tertiary. The absence of a Raven Man card is incredibly conspicuous. They definitely have their reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The absence of a Raven Man card is incredibly conspicuous. They definitely have their reasons. I feel like Maro once said it was at least tertiary. Meh, could be misremembering things. White being tertiary wouldn't make a ton of sense though since it already has a ton of flying creatures to block opposing fliers. Agree. Even back during the webcomic days he was important so he going to have to show up at some point. Also, since we're on the subject of flying, really weird that Orchard Spirit is back. I know Maro doesn't like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Maro doesn't like it. I think MaRo mentioned white being tertiary in reach on Blogatog shortly after Hundred-Handed One was spoiled. They also played with the reach variant in Dragon Hunter. Don't have a source on me now, but it's more likely than red having reach (although that's changed now, by recent Blogatog posts). Orchard Spirit is probably just one of those things that slipped through MaRo's gaze. He can't stop every distasteful colour pie decision. Being a reprint also probably means that he had a smaller hand in it than usual as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just check Blogatog and it was brought up. http://markrosewater.tumblr.com/post/123147648273/reach-feels-a-little-strange-in-red-as-a-purely Orchard Spirit was also brought up. http://markrosewater.tumblr.com/post/123147705358/the-green-tyranny-needs-to-be-put-to-a-stop-maro Its funny how well people know Maro.

Just Crouton Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 I so want to build some really cheap RG deck with this set. Holy crap all the sexy low drop Red and Green stuff :O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bury the year Posted July 4, 2015 Report Share Posted July 4, 2015 I want to build Nath EDH now. I tried it (my first EDH attempt - glad I did, now that Heritage Druid's $20+), and he's honestly not that good as an elf-tribal general. Better suited for stax. If you want Golgari elves, try Rhys the Exiled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
