The sideboard adds Crumble to Dust, Unmoored Ego, and Weather the Storm as high impact one-ofs. Apart from that, the BTL toolbox is quite small: only Damnation stands out as a main deck silver bullet. There is nothing particularly fancy about this concept, apart from the Bring to Light loophole that allows Tibalt to be cast for a mere 3UG. The deck feels insane so far, and if i’m ok tomorrow after getting my second covid shot i’ll play it in tomorrow’s challenge□ (with maybe some sb changes) /oq775nslQT- Aspiringspike April 30, 2021 I picked up 2 more trophies on stream today (and a 1-2 drop CURSE YOU MONO BLUE TRON) for a total of 16-2 with this 75. Five mana for Tibalt, Cosmic Impostor has been just about right for Pioneer, but is only gradually making inroads to Modern. Indomitable Creativityįrom the school of “What if Pioneer, but in Modern?” comes this Sultai Control deck popularized by Aspiringspike, and piloted this week by vosskiller. This deck is my Pick of the Week and as such will be discussed in greater detail on this Friday’s episode of Faithless Brewing, so tune in then for more Burning Inquiry action! #5. Here, Kroxa, Titan of Death’s Hunger and Lurrus of the Dream-Den are on graveyard duty, helping to ensure that you are losing too much material if you have to cast Inquiries without Waste Not in play. The second challenge is making use of all the debris from Inquiry’s random discard. If you wanted to try waste not I’d start here. This is also a list of mine from the waste not discord we’ve had several 5-0s now from people with it. But in this build, piloted this week by illwill552 and ultimately originating in the Waste Not Discord community (of which Dylan_MTG is curator), you get access to extra copies thanks to Dreadhorde Arcanist. The strategy is held back mainly by only getting 4 copies of Burning Inquiry. What I learned was that Waste Not works best as a value engine grinding out small triggers over time, rather than trying to assemble one explosive combo sequence. I have vivid memories of Grand Prix Hartford from three years back, when I was frantically trying to find the exact ratios of Funeral Charm, Piracy Charm, and Snapcaster Mage needed to carry my Grixis Waste Not brew into Day 2 (I ultimately fell one round short). Waste Not is a card that I and many others have been chasing for years, a brewer’s “white whale,” if you will. Speaking of Rakdos Midrange, this spicy take has appeared in several consecutive 5-0 dumps now, sparking hope that maybe Waste Not could find a permanent competitive home in Modern. Just don’t forget that Blightning has been updated to hit those newfangled planeswalkers! #4. Really fun stuff though I ended up with another 5-0 as well with it.- Dylan Kruse May 4, 2021Įncouraging words for Jund Lifers everywhere. Jund has already so many ways to deal with permanents. I could see it in b/r midrange as well though. I’d say this is the shell maybe not the perfect 75. According to him, “Blightning was MVP! 3 damage to a planeswalker like Karn, the Great Creator and hitting the card they fetched is huge.” I was eager to learn more about how Blightning held up in 2021 Modern, so I reached out to Dylan to get more intel. But the real standout card is Blightning, a stalwart of the Standard Jund decks of yore. I’ve found that Lurrus and Kroxa does wonders for strategies like this, which previously struggled to end the game. Literal Blightning makes an appearance in this updated take on 8 Rack from Rakdos master Dylan Kruse (Dylan_MTG). Plargg, Dean of Chaos // Augusta, Dean of Order We’ll be exploring Sedgemoor Witch and the Magecraft mechanic in greater detail on this Sunday’s episode of Faithless Brewing, and this is definitely a shell I’ll be tinkering with during my testing. Are some copies of Plumb the Forbidden also warranted? The key to making Pyromancer and Witch good is a steady flow of cards to generate more triggers, and here Village Rites, Dreadhorde Arcanist, and Bedlam Reveler do the heavy lifting. Discard spells tend to lose value as the game drags on, and while this deck can always convert them to an extra token thanks to Witch or Young Pyromancer, there are few ways to cash them in for a full card. Rakdos decks with the full boat of Thoughtseize and Inquisition of Kozilek makes us miss Faithless Looting. Are Sedgemoor Witch and Bedlam Reveler worth more than Lurrus of the Dream-Den? The pilot Bodingle thought so, following the lead of captain_ahab who trophied with the same 75 last week
