Don't you just love the enthusiasm when a new set is about to drop?

okok, I'm happy to share this thing I put together. I call it 0045 Ways to Leave Your Lover


4 x Insolent Neonate
3 x Bloodrage Brawler
3 x Harnessed Lightning
4 x Fiery Temper
2 x Lathnu Hellion
1 x Hazoret the Fervent
2 x Heart-Piercer Manticore

3 x Exemplar of Strength
3 x Defiant Greatmaw
2 x Mouth // Feed
1 x Rhonas the Indomitable
2 x Honored Hydra

3 x Voltaic Brawler
1 x Arlinn Kord
1 x Samut, Voice of Dissent


Not sure about this land, I should probably get DJ to take a look:
3 x Aether Hub
2 x Cinder Glade
2 x Rootbound Crag
9 x Forest
9 x Mountain

10+ hours maintenance pushing into the depth of night.
Not sure if it is enthusiasm alone that would keep me awake until then.

Mostly it's the vicious desire to witness game breaking/account wiping bugs upon release, such as with Origins, SOI and AER.
That's the actual thrill.



Screw that Feed. Let the Mouth Starve.

First thing I'll do is to Fling some stuff on release.

Fling and 101 other ways to misuse Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger

I'm so happy for Barney for finally building his own deck.

Where is this mythical DJ0045 decklist with crazy win percentages?

Thanks Gem. It feels good to finally build something I can call my own.

I played DJ's deck in game two against Vert in the finals. Win percentage is just north of 90% for me.

Ah the old days .... the dilemma ..... local or cloud ..... oh sh*t!

For a deck trying to turn on Hazoret, your curve is slow and terrible.

ur slow n terrble

omg what a totally original and not at all net decked list! So proud of how far you've come as a builder. DJ gonna be so jealous he didn't think of it first

Huh?

Up until about 3-4 days ago (without changing anything that I'm aware of), I've had that constantly. I always choose cloud so it matches their info and I'm forever thinking I'm going to have my stuff wiped.


@ Barney - great job on 60 random cards

Your gold is always safe, I have fallen afoul of selecting cloud where in at least one set update the cloud had no decks. In part it was due to playing on 2 devices. One time I recovered by selecting local, on device with decks, made a change and on other device selected cloud to get decks back!

But agree these days cloud, always cloud as the update resets the decks locally.

EDIT: in principal you should only get the option if you changes decks in any way, add, delete, change. Otherwise the local and cloud should always be the same. I only ever get it when I change between devices (3 of).

Now the big question:

Which deck to build and play first?

The aggro brews to try and cheese ladder rank of course.

Story mode decks! Oh wait. There will be a bunch of cards we don't have (and they spent time coding and fixing etc just for story mode).

I'm going to slip into the R/G smashfest for sure!


elk

They'll prob let the AI play with some we can't use...

still haven't forgiven them for doing that with Felidar Sovereign

Any bets on what the Ai's new pet cards are?

I think it'll play the monuments in every deck. Extra points if it actually gets the right Monument for the colors its using!

I'm probably just going to lazily spam Esper until Rank 40 before I start seriously brewing.

The jank comes first. I will build decks around janky enchantments, Sandwurm Convergence, Anointer Procession, Cruel Reality, the Gods and the brick artifacts. My first 2 janky weeks.

Then i will update my old decks and try more competitive stuff. In the end i will build my esper control and spread fear in the ladder, and maybe in the next showdown

You played 2 games and won 90% of them?
