Since I’ve discovered him, Mr. Chapin and Reid Duke are my two favorite Magic Players to watch and learn from. I am studying Patrick’s book on Next Level Deckbuilding, currently in the process of building my first deck. I mean Patrick’s Professionalism and Humble shows. He’s dressed as Professional, it shows his respect for the game.

I agree, though he can get a little carried away sometimes and ends up just kind of saying nonsense.

Tim M Just trolling for the sake of trolling, aren't we? I wouldn't call it a logic fail. But that's how you see it based on your opinion. See what I did there?

Absolutely agree. He does his job extremely well. All of the trolls on the Internet are just extremely jaded spikes.

Brandon Schott Technically it is literally a "logic fail" as it is the logical fallacy called "overgeneralization". So no he's not trolling. He just disagrees with you and doesn't think you should be saying that everyone should feel the way you do, or else they're wrong. Also your second comment was at once a straw man argument and ad hominem, as you chose to argue a different argument than the one he put forth, and you attempted to simply discredit him by calling him a troll.

No, he actually tried to to cheat twice earlier in the tournament.

Kevin Kade When and how?

Kevin Kade youre pretty dumb

Ikr; he never cheats me when it comes to overpriced weed.

+Matthew Ault thoughtsieze courser elspeth was the core of this deck and was the core of the abzan midrange decks recently.

if you go on wizards's website, then you can find the list at least, since it's a top 8 deck

If you go to starcity games channel you can look up brian braun duin and should find it if not i can post the video for you just message me.

Naw sheit breh.

so this is a really late reply but better late than never I guess the most reasonable reason that I can think for nam to do that there is so that he doesn't have to constantly leave three mana open to downfall in response to monstrosity. a pro like chapin won't necessarily spend five mana and leave himself vulnerable to a huge blowout just so he can deal one more damage; chapin is more likely to just constantly leave the threat of monstrousing in response to a removal spell on the lion hopefully that made sense!

logdude is correct its a misplay to not downfall it.

Courser of Krufix... its abilities is to keep the top card of the library visible and if it's a land you can play it directly (the lands' number you can play in a turn remains 1 ) and when you play a land you gain 1 life point :-)

I was wondering the same thing, but came to the conclusion that such a control deck does not really exist. The slow white decks want permanents, so they would rather run more elspeths and more creatures.

Life totals, cards they've seen, cards they know their opponents have seen from them, wether or not they're on the play/draw, score in the match, that sort of stuff.

There can be the same planeswalker on both sides of the field. You just can't have two of the same planeswalker on one side.

Ah. I'm new to the game, but I thought when 2 of the same planeswalker were on the battlefield they both died.

TheKylesauce New legend rule no longer takes into account your opponent's field.

49:50 he does it again

aiouh Pretty sure he's looking to see what was sideboarded 🙂

*Their

Best way is to search for cheap Booster packs u got 10 standard cards and 1 rare/mythic there +3 uncommon +1 land. If u wanna get a really easy beginner deck i would build slivers, but i am no pro player just an play 4 fun sometimes with friends^^

Blazing Claw Slivers aren't going to be legal, since there's not enough to make a Standard Deck. I'd just say buy a Journy Into Nyx Starter Deck.

Depends on your style of play but if your building on a budget buy a few packs and an intro deck just to get started and get a feel. then that's when you can start pouring in more money and specifying more, don't buy single cards unless your gonna do tournaments not worth it for casual play. personally i play red blue and have fun with it.

XxRhendrenxX I do as well for a simple reason. I like it, and when i opened my first fat pack i got a shiny keranos.

same except for the foil lol i love keranos he just feels too late game for red blue though its supposed to be really fast on win or lose lol

Congratz buddy, I'm proud of you!

garagavia u sir have made my day

Garrett Ford Keep up the good work, kid, you have potential. Get there!

garagavia lol thanks

"Standard format" and "interesting" in the same sentence? Nigga, you crazy.

The block constructed format was boring as shit, but the block is actually decently fun. Born is a bad set though.

***** It was still really boaring though. The decks are neatly constructed, but very slow and controlly midrange, It is basically just playing vaule things and big things and killing your opponents big stuff. Little finesse, for the most part. Cifka's deck was cool though.

Tim M His opinion is not meant to take everything into account, he just wants to start a discussion about the block. No need to throw fancy words around just to prove someone's opinion is ''wrong''. If you want to be involved into the discussion just give your own opinion instead of this pretentious irrelevant stuff.

Let me just point out the big white elephant in the room. One of the things that made this block essentially bad and might still make it bad for T2 is the Elspeth mistake. Elspeth might by a 6 to cast, but she protects herself three times on a single POSITIVE tick on a block where flying creatures are not that great. You may quote all kinds of responses to her, but they're very narrow if you do not build specific strategies against that (let's also mention the factor luck of the draw). Which is why Bx decks and Wx or splashed W were dominant, even tho other colors saw some nice play. I, as a rogue budget builder, had so much fucking problem facing Elspeth black decks. I never had so much trouble against a single card. Add to that card so much creature hate, so much hand hate, all concentrated in the same color(s). The biggest problem is, although the set has such a novelty feature and so much power in each type of build available, there was only a single way to go to reach the top. Theros was a really cool set, Born was not, Journey became again. But only if you're into casual. If you want to compete for real value, it's a shitload of Elspeths and not much fun in competition. If boredom does not ensue, just pure rage.
