I drafted a couple sweet Izzet decks yesterday! First deck was pip central in TLA and went 3-0 6-0. Second deck was Memnarch midrange in chaos draft and went 2-1.
Big thanks to @MeatMTG for the raid! Appreciate the MTGO camaraderie 🤝
This week, I tied for the OTJ trophy lead with a 77% win rate (the same % as my trophy leads in AER and RIX), but my win rate in IPA was 3% higher and I had more than twice the sample size!
Let’s review my IPA trophy decks and color stats! (The quoted deck is trophy #6.)
(1/5)
@TaJoordan@CooperFrye Given the matches I've played and screenshots I've seen, it seems like you and I are some of the only people drafting decks like these?
My best color combo was Jeskai (Raka) at 14-1, closely followed by Mardu (Dega) at 14-4. Of my 13 trophies, only 2 were nonwhite and only 1 was nonred!
Finally, here’s a typical base-RW trophy deck à la @mtg_ds—just slot in the 5 blue cards or the 5 black cards! (5/5)
Fun stream today! After making some autopicks for this BG chaos deck I didn't have high hopes, but I went 3-0! I'm only 1 match in with this RW deck, but I'm 1-0 and this time I do have high hopes!
Thank you to @barczeek for the raid :)
I had a blast on last night's stream! I started with a very fun UR spells in chaos draft, which went 2-1; I ended with a strong BR dudes in a single elim, which trophied! Big thanks to @SystemMagicMTG for the raid :)
I've got no Fear of Being Hunted—come beat me in the @Amaz Cube to win my respect! Oh, and 120 playpoints. Thanks @MagicOnline!

@Intrepid_Tautog Definitely feels like there’s less interaction to start (a product of more or less starting over follower-wise), but it/its users have a much nicer vibe imo!
And fwiw, I’d enjoy seeing your posts over there :)
Imagine drafting a 1MV cube at a high volume. Would that cube be most fun to play A) without Ocelot Pride, B) without Guide of Souls, C) without either card, or D) with both cards?
