Magic The Gathering: The trading card game

[Bardoly]

Yeah, I got whipped last FNM by one of these mono-Black aggro decks.    I may just have to join 'em if I can't beat 'em.

[Bardoly]

So what are y'all playing for FNM this week?

I built a couple of decks:

1 - white/green Eidolon of Blossoms deck with all enchantments/enchantment creatures except for 1 Ajani, Caller of the Pride and 2 Ajani, Mentor of Heroes

2 - mono-black Squelching Leeches/Lilianna of the Dark Realms/Chromanticore (splash 3 Blood Crypt, 3 Godless Shrine, 3 Overgrown Tomb, 3 Watery Grave, because Lilianna can tutor up whichever color I need)

I don't really know if either of these decks are very good, so I may play my red/white/blue control deck since I've been able to get 3 of the Temple of Epiphany scry lands.

If you could post a whole deck list that would help. As far is FNM, i won't be playing this week. I am however going to a draft tonight.

Deck list please!


*Edit:  Actually, maybe I should be asking for the deck list of the 1st place winner.   :-"


Also, Last week's FNM winners were all mono-black aggro and/or fast boros burn.  I didn't see a single UW control deck, so I'm thinking that maybe I should fill that hole with my WUR contol deck and put the Warleader's Helix's mainboard for the life-gain.

The guy that took 1st place was playing mono red aggro and got double burning tree emissary and a firefist striker out on turn 2 in game 1 while I stalled out at 2 lands. Game 2- I mulled to 5 and wiped his field twice with Anger of the Gods but he eventually got a Boros Reckoner out followed by a Fanatic of Mogis. I'll try to post my rogue homebrew deck this weekend if it performs well again tonight.

Anger of the Gods exiles creatures so Athreos won't trigger.

I went 3-1 with Carpet Bombers last night at FNM to win 5 packs. My only loss was to mana issues (stalled out at 2 lands in game 1 and mulled to 6 cards in game 2 then drew a land every turn). There were a lot of Selesnya and Junk decks in the meta at my local store. I had to face the new Ajani twice.

[Bardoly]

I had to work late last Friday, so I did the 8pm J/B/T Draft instead of the 6:30pm Standard.  I ended up drafting a weak Black/Green deck.  I still ended up going 3-1 and won 2 packs, so it wasn't a complete waste, but even the rares were pathetic.  The best rare that I saw was Anax & Cymede, and I passed it.


... Still waiting on your "Carpet Bombers" deck list.
