So true, I built a Mardu Midrange deck in standard and it took me a while to make, only just got the last Bloodstained Mires, and yes it took me a while, but play testing it and shuffling it gives me a sense of achievement, and when it wins, it feels wonderful as something you've carefully put your time and money into performs. Sure if you lose you don't get that, but unless its the final of a pro tour it doesn't really matter and you can come back and win! Money is not as important as enjoyment in my opinion, and everyone gets a buzz from a win, and you know that if you put time into a powerful deck you WILL win games.

its goyf/lilianna/abruptdecay/lingeringsouls less Abzan deck

Cheers for the shout out, but cut lightning greaves, fleecemane lion and Archangel for Tarmagoyf, Lilianna of the veil, abrupt decay and lingering souls

Off in that, you can have any number of legends, just 1 copy

I'd actually suggest this as a decent starting point for a new player, but I'd nudge them towards R/G which is amazing

ye that happens when you pull Ugin!

There we go, Puschkin was succinct and correct. If a deck is decent I will like it, a deck should be on the hot page because it is good.

the legacy soldiers deck, it works a bit like Stax in vintage and is surprisingly cheap and easy if you ignore certain lands

I'm with you, I think its bullshit, but it won't help our cause if we get very pissed, hopefully the time of budget will pass

Jack is right in so many ways, probably same number of stars for the number of times he is right. As a competitive player, the best magic games aren't ones on the kitchen table, the best games are the close 'win and in' or final games against your mate/a nice person where the last flip wins or loses it and you laugh about it whatever way it goes. I don't think many players are fans of the eggs combo that take forever, however most decks don't do that, you always have a shot in modern even when the combo begins. It feels like 'casual' is an excuse for poor.

trumpet blast, it seems only good if you keep all your dudes

I'm just not sure how reliable the whole concept of that is

Yep it would work

oh sorry, i misread the card, as long as your mana fixing allows it?

There is rattlebattle shaman which is an every combat step trumpet blast

But forget the budget, just make a powerful modern deck, in competitive players' eyes its not the price its the quality and consistency

I know, half the decks on the hot page are just absolute shite

Its why those morons on the budget decks on the hot page, casual or budget modern is not an excuse for shit

No, he is talking about his deck

Proof modern decks can be decent and budget!
