Miscellaneous Discussion Throwback format, which year would you pick?

4 Upvotes

Me and my friends want to play some proxied legacy. Current legacy looks unappealing to us especially because the meta shifts every three weeks due to some new busted card, so we're going to do a throwback format. What snapshot of the format do you think we should we play? Somewhere from 2011 to 2017 is the ballpark we're looking at. We're looking to put together 8 of the top decks at that time to play against each other for endless fun.

Legendary Creature - Human Warrior

When ~ enters, you may sacrifice another creature or artifact. If you do, draw two cards.

You may cast ~ from exile.

5/3

Food chain always had the issue that it was a 3 card combo in a world of 2 card comboes. Now that your misthallow griffin also draws most of your deck with either a squee or half your deck being creatures it could revitalize the deck.

Deck/Matchup/Tactics Help Is Red Painter Dead?

With the printing of sewer-valance cam, is painter just an izzet deck now? I’ve seen some 5-0s lately with red painter, but is it as competitive as it once was, or has the community moved on from it?

Eternal Weekend EU registration

8 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

I’m really excited for Eternal Weekend Europe this December! However, I seem to be having trouble purchasing anything for registration. The website says that ticket sales went live yesterday, but I can’t purchase either a badge or tickets for any of the events.

I’m also a little confused about how the badges work. Do I need to purchase a separate badge for each tournament (Modern, Legacy, etc.), or does one badge cover multiple events?

And one last question: have the playmats been revealed anywhere yet?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Show and Tell is the hardest part of the deck, but there's still plenty to learn about the subtleties of mulligans and sideboarding beyond the obvious.

Is the deck good? Not really. But boy is it fun to play. I love value and having a flush life total, what can I say?

If you're a fair gamer who is tired of being beaten by storm watch round 1.

If you're into MTG salt round 3.

Deck/Matchup/Tactics Help Help with Minotaur decklist

6 Upvotes

Hi all!

I'm new to legacy but relatively experienced with Magic and I'm looking on some advice with the list I'm running. So far, it's done really well against my pods Boros energy and Sliver decks, but has stumbled when going against cradle control and aluren. I'm not trying to put together a tournament winning list or anything, but I also don't want to severely handicap myself while learning the format.

Here's the list: https://moxfield.com/decks/oT-hATqukH2HPrtWwqzlBQ

Any and all advice is appreciated!

Deck/Matchup/Tactics Help I'm building Dimir Reanimator and I can't decide what else to add......

10 Upvotes

So I'm basically going for something a bit different than the traditional Rakdos/Grixis lists, but I've come across a bit of an issue where I'm only 4 short of the list being done. I haven't added Ponder or Brainstorm in it, but to keep it at 60 I only have room for a playset of one of them.

I'm a bit newer to Legacy (switched over from Modern back in March) so I figured I'd reach out for help with this one.

Here's the list https://deckbox.org/sets/3922466

I'm also open to any other feedback to the rest of the deck. As long as I can keep Force of Will and Dark Ritual 😛

Just for Fun What would a card like this do to the legacy format? I made this for a custom legacy loam deck I’m creating. It’s a lands.dec version of up the beanstalk

“Fitness of The Forest”

As long as Fitness of The Forest is in your graveyard, you may play an additional land on each of your turns.

When Fitness of The Forest enters the battlefield and whenever a land enters the battlefield under your control, draw a card.

New Players Most important meal of the day

16 Upvotes

Hey there!

Newish to the legacy format. I’m a relatively enfranchised modern player and have been slowly moving into legacy. My initial introduction to the format was on UW Control, but I’ve put together Cephalid Breakfast to look for something a little different than I’m used to playing.

Is there a dedicated space out there to deep dive into the archetype? I understand the deck isn’t exactly in the best place, but I really like the combo and am interested in deepening my understanding of the deck.

Deck/Matchup/Tactics Help How Is Sneak and Show Positioned Right Now

14 Upvotes

I'm considering getting back into Legacy and playing some MTGO again. I've been looking through the current metagame on MTGGoldfish, and the format looks pretty balanced and healthy overall, at least from the outside.

I primarily played Sneak and Show when I was active, and it's the deck I'd most likely pick up again.

I'm particularly interested in hearing from people who are currently playing Sneak and Show. How does the deck feel in today's metagame? What are its strongest and weakest matchups? Is it still a competitive choice for Leagues and Challenges, or has the format become less favorable for it?

I'm less interested in theoretical assessments and more curious about the experiences of people who have actually been putting in games with the deck recently.

I'd appreciate any insight from current pilots. Thanks!

Hello,

I am new to the format. I am looking for combo decks with alternative win conditions (mainly combat) either in the main deck or sideboard.

Prepping for Eternal Weekend? I made a free tool to create and manage sideboard maps

Thumbnail
badcardsout.com
37 Upvotes

Hi all, since it's Eternal Weekend season again, I had been following my usual process of filling out sideboard maps in spreadsheets, and thought I'd give creating a website to do the job for me a shot.

https://badcardsout.com is the outcome of this - a site where you can upload your decklist, have it generate a sample metagame for you to curate, and present a matrix of ins/outs for you to fill out. You can then print your guide out, either on a standard page, or as a foldable booklet that should fit into your deckbox as a divider.

There's an accounts system which you log into with your Discord login, and you can store all your maps there, as well as follow those who choose to make their maps public for others to view and print. Logging in isn't required to view public maps, though, so you can see what the site has to offer in part first.

It's free to use, and I'd be keen to hear feedback on the site if anyone gives it a try. There are already a few public maps available to browse, so check them out - the sideboard map, deck list and also the matrix for each (read only of course, unless you want to save a copy to your account to edit).

Please don't judge my bad sideboarding habits too harshly(!) here's a Legacy Cephalid map as an example: https://badcardsout.com/m/MLRb2FWrMyvk

I hope this is helpful, and makes the process of creating and managing sideboard guides simpler.

Thanks for reading.

Francis
