Yea i literally use this site to brainstorm my own deck ideas, crunch numbers and take sample hands. Plus i use Tcgplayer to buy my decks. I stopped looking at other peoples decks quite some time ago for the same reasons you guys said. Its fuckin lame seeing some garb combo deck get praised as if it was some new tier one legacy tourney winner. Who wants to actually buy a deck, let alone play with a deck, that does one thing and one thing only, and if it doesn't work, it can't win? This site was popping when i first joined, now i just get shit when i make posts on crappy budgets and cheap trick decks for not "understanding" them.

Sorry BurtonErnie, not trying to turn this post into a ranting page, but i got happy when i saw people felt the same as i did.

your a sweetheart <3

lol agreed and yea the down voting is intense

whoa thats like what i said, and my comment got down voted into oblivion and all i got was shit for it.. good luck brother

No offense Drizzle and Raging, but you guys did read the conversation from the beginning right? At which point did ninja get attacked by kazzong? Cause im not seeing it. I see kazzong make a statement and ask a question that also clearly said "as far as i am aware" which to me implies that he admits himself that he may be wrong. Im pretty sure Ninja just jumped right in (like a ninja no doubt), and used some aggressive words towards kazzong, alllllll before kazzong had said anything to him. I must have missed the part where it was explained calmly

Sorry boss but this is old news at this point, me and ninja hashed out our differences and road off into the sunset hand in hand. <3

thanks though!

yea, vizkopa does the same thing for 3 mana. I was trying to avoid the enchantment combo because its just not fun to play with or against. Oh i have these two cards so i win. Know what i mean?

I actually didn't trash the damn thing and i understand exactly how it works. I can also clearly see how it doesn't work, i pointed out flaws that i could see, offered alternatives and asked questions. When i started on here, people posted decks, got some hate and some love, but almost always got advice, and whether it was good or not, you got it. If you don't like my advice and think otherwise, id love to hear your explanation and be set straight. And stop with the hero shit, i called you out on being an asshole because you were being an asshole, plain and simple. You admitted it was true even, yet you continue to bring it up as if it supports your cause whatever the hell that is. And the grizzly bear joke was fucking funny.
This deck is too slow to the kill and also too hurtful to the player from what i can see. yea you dont have to shock yourself with shocklands, but maybe you need to in order to play thoughtsieze or goyf or decay, bob or even bolt when you need it. Odds are your opponent will have answers to your very few threats and Thoughtsieze and Abrupt Decay wont be enough to get you to what is most likely going to be a turn 5-6 combo that hurts you along the way. My point is that 14 of 25 lands hurt you, and odds are pretty good that your going to have to shock yourself because your going to need to play spells and play them fast in order to ramp your lands up. Between that, Bob, and Thoughtsieze, your going to lose a bunch of life. And thats only self inflicted damage.

Hey now, i was funny with the grizzly bear comment. But in all seriousness, someone throws up a 1600 dollar modern deck, no deck description or explanation of thoughts, gets 30 likes and 50 comments (40ish if you subtract my arguement), and not a single person points out the huge gaping flaws that this deck has? How do you not take sample hands and be like, "holy shit, im gonna lose all my life before i accomplish anything."? Im not calling him names or telling him to learn how to read, im addressing the room full of people and the deck maker, who seem to not want to make this deck better, or even acknowledge that its missing something. Infact, the maker of this deck hasnt said a single thing to anyone about any of their thoughts or ideas.

Lol nice catch, its even better than i gave it credit it for. I will most definitely let you know, i plan on ordering one this coming weekend, i very well might pick this one because it does look quite fun :p I made a proxy once upon a time, but im too lazy to do it again lol

I gave you credit, but i made a naya version of this to further abuse landfall with, thanks for the idea!

Why not just ditch black for white and add stepe lynx and plated geopede? Gives you access to path to exile and all that good shit too. Just a thought

I didnt engage you, you engaged me, and without hesitation. Nothing was an assumption, and your right i don't like you. And my opinion clearly meant enough to you to argue about. If you want to get back on track, you can respond to my question at the bottom of the page.

EVERYONE, and i mean EVERyONE, likes honesty. You can be honest without the snide ass remarks you throw in at the end of each sentence. You talk down to people. Your statements of honesty are disregarded when you turn it into a question of intelligence, and you go from being helpful to just being another prick who thinks his shit doesn't stink.

The only thing id like to know, is what happens when you draw the mountains that you are hoping to Scapeshift for? Certainly Lightning Bolt and Tarmagoyf arent going to win you the game alone, seems like all the eggs are in the Scapeshift basket and your not even running 4. Why not 4 Valakuts??? Or at least 3?
Plus with 14 self damaging lands, 4 thoughtsieze and 4 Dark confidant, your not exactly going to be in a healthy place even with Courser out, plus you need like 6 or seven lands out of what are hopefully non mountain lands to sacrifice, to go get the rest of your mountains. Is your opponent playing with a Grizzly bear tribal deck? Actually that might be too strong for this..
I just get the feeling that this deck is one more color than it needs to be.
Also... Why not run Crucible of Worlds? If you dont manage to one shot your opponent, at least you can keep dealing damage with it.

Im not disagreeing with you, im just saying your an asshole. In fact i was agreeing with Maniacalmaniac that the wording makes it SEEM like it shouldn't work. Your problem is that you do know what your talking about, but have no idea HOW to talk to people.

I agree, the wording does make it seem like Valakut would not do the damage until the sixth land enters battlefield. Ninjastyle is just a rude asshole who attacks people that don't sleep with their dick stuffed in a rule book every night. Dont be offended Kazzong, and certainly dont apologize, he is like this to everyone.

he has 10 mountains and 11 ways to get them out, id have to disagree with you.

Lol! well honestly ive never played with it, i have quite a few decks up here right now and i have been debating about which one id like to get. Its between this one and two others.

On another note, this deck doesn't necessarily need a ton of life to work, in fact only Chalice of Life and Serra Ascendant care about my life total. All i need to do is gain a chunk of life here and there, then win using Vizkopa Guildmage to kill everyone simultaneously.

Say i have a Baneslayer Angel and Rhox Faithmender in play, and i swing with Baneslayer for 5 damage and gain 10 life. But what if i have Vizkopa Guildmage out and i drain everyone for 10 more life with its ability. Overall i just did 15 damage to one opponent and 10 to all the others. Then i sacrifice my Tainted Sigil, gain another 10 life and deal another 10 damage to everyone. Thats 25 to one person and 20 to everyone else while i gained 20 life. Obviously this is not going to happen all the time, but its pretty cool that it can.
