Hey. I'm here now basically

[josh, gruul fuckboy @joshthegood]

I made one finally

[josh, gruul fuckboy @joshthegood]

@gingerr45167381 @jupiterbrandos Deep Cavern Bat is the better version of this card and does not see play right now

[josh, gruul fuckboy @joshthegood]

@jkyu06 @fireshoes Exactly, was good

[josh, gruul fuckboy @joshthegood]

@JlambertlLyons @fireshoes This deck looks like it could use phlage

[josh, gruul fuckboy @joshthegood]

@McWinSauce Kaalia did get printed into modern so i think there is probably a reality where someone is trying to do this

[josh, gruul fuckboy @joshthegood]

@SonRebell If you need eddymurk crabs still I can get them to you friday

[josh, gruul fuckboy @joshthegood]

@Roaringliger1 @MixolydianMagus Dimir Excruciator and Mardu Discard are very playable

[josh, gruul fuckboy @joshthegood]

@SonRebell Colorstorm has no evasion, only triggers once off of a talent+basics loop, asks you to spend 5 mana at once to do the cool thing. You give up a lot of your equity in your favored matchups by registering Stallion in exchange for nothing basically

@gazmon48 @alsosteve @Crew3Podcast You gotta log off man

[josh, gruul fuckboy @joshthegood]

@gazmon48 @alsosteve @Crew3Podcast Blaming one designer for killing a format and implying she's overpaid isnt valid criticism

[josh, gruul fuckboy @joshthegood]

@gazmon48 @alsosteve @Crew3Podcast Making personal attacks on designers does not create a productive, friendly, or respectable space and reflects badly on the community that houses or creates those attacks

[josh, gruul fuckboy @joshthegood]

@CalebDOTexe_ Sometimes it is easy! If a deck 100% folds to a card being played then maybe the deck isnt competitively viable (or the pilot didn't play around it). Ime sideboards allow gimmicky all-in decks to exist while still having counterplay, forcing those decks to have backup plans.

[josh, gruul fuckboy @joshthegood]

@CalebDOTexe_ Also if I bring in 6 cards that hose your deck, I also need to be judicious in not undercutting my own plan, otherwise I stop you then... do nothing. It's extremely hard and one of the most gratifying aspects of the game

[josh, gruul fuckboy @joshthegood]

@CalebDOTexe_ If you compare sideboarding to say, standard or modern, there are absolutely some cards that nuke strategies, but often the decks that get nuked also get to run their own sideboard cards designed to juke or play through the sideboarded disruption

[Jacob Lambert-Lyons @JlambertlLyons]

im ready to overreact

[josh, gruul fuckboy @joshthegood]

@mosh_joscoe You need to work on your deck reg MU

[josh, gruul fuckboy @joshthegood]

@TheBoiPaulRoy @TeamMainPhase @fireshoes This was my instinct lol. I kept mulling to 5 to find threats. Is Frenzy for Boros dragons?

[josh, gruul fuckboy @joshthegood]

@GhandiflossMTGO @Basti24b @karsten_frank Has a really bad dimir matchup + vivi cauldron does more broken things with the same kit
