Sealed deck game mode is quite fun. What do you think?

That would be fun in a Simic deck. Counters on everything.
Already running experiment one, gyre sage, and deadbridge goliath, this'll complement all of those fellas quite well.
I look forward to fighting that in my friend's Vorel EDH deck :(

Seems to be getting some hate, but I really like it. I definitely want to get my hands on a few when it comes out.[/QUOTE]
When doesn't Chandra get hate?
Though It's possibly the most playable Chandra yet.

I'm awful at this, I cant even win against this guy in the 2014 campaign who just summons these guys, and when theres 4 of them on the field, it automatically wins at the end phrase :I (plus he has cloning lol) I wish there was a way to get a deck builder helper for the 2014 decks, im complete shit at choosing myself.

It takes a lot of luck to beat that encounter with certain decks. I was unable to get lucky enough to beat it with the Mul Daya deck but wrecked it first try with the red deck because of all the burn spells. Just use the decks that can kill things effectively and go after the Biovisionary's.
Here's a tip, you HAVE to have killed one or wiped the board before turn 6 in order to win. Otherwise, it's game over. Preferably, wait until he lands the enchantment on a Biovisionary which puts a copy out every turn and then kill it.
The encounters are exactly the same every time so just learn the pattern and the exact moment of when to remove something from the battlefield.
That Mul Daya deck's really easy to win almost anything with with, khalni expedition, rampant growth, and then just toss out eldrazi and whatnot.

Use avacyn's glory to get rid of the biomancers. Fiend hunters and oblivion rings should help as well as path to exile. He normally goes Biomancer -> Biomancer -> Followed Footsteps -> Biomancer and if you get rid of any to the grace, he brings one back.
What is the best Zombie EDH deck in your opinion? I'm thinking about Balthor The Defiled or maybe Grimgrin.

Whats a good deck composition for ag? (like, what cards to get, which ones to avoid) sorry im asking so much :v: I just suck so bad at deck building.

Champion of the Parish is your go to guy, make him big with cards such as gather the townsfolk and avoid cards that rely on the death of others (unruly mob). Doomed travellers are great, as you can hit most of the other decks with the spirit after he dies since barely any of them have flying. Your angels are key too, they will be the backbone of the deck, as they will clash with the big cards of other decks. Keep in removal, and avoid cards that give you life (unnecessary since you want fateful hour to proc if you are losing anyway).

Balthor's cool for monoblack, but Thraximundar is RAD AS FUCK
[editline]2nd July 2013[/editline]
Both of those cards are auto-includes for Thrax. Grimgrin actually interacts very well with Thrax.

Debt Horse would be broken OP in pretty much any setting where there's any decent mana accel
Same with Rider of Forb.
Otherwise, they look cool, but I doubt they'd see much use
In other news, almost finished my rainbow slivers EDH deck, just waiting on my overlord and harmonic and it's done
Though I'm kinda stuck as to where I want to use legion or overlord as my general, and it's basically a fight between utility or sheer ridiculous power
Chromesteed sounds OP, 3 mana 8/8 if you have the 3 other artifacts you need and it is an artifact itself.
Prerelease was fun, as everyone had seemed to have thought green and blue were really big power houses. I ended up going 3-1 and pulled a garruk in one of the packs I won so I'm happy
I ran a black green ramp deck which focused on Garruk's Horde, Nightmare, and Woodland Behemoth.
Also, Enlarge which is just insane.
My favorite card out of the set was Tenacious Dead. I'm a sucker for high value, one drop black cards.
I pulled a Chandra out of my prize support.

Nice, I was originally running a UGB deck that revolved around getting a few high value creatures and enchanting them like crazy since I had an Oath of the Ancient Wood and a haunted plate mail. It didn't work too well since it just wasn't strong enough, so I swapped the black in my deck with white and it won me all the next games since I had an imposing sovereign and those 2/2 vigilance slivers that could do some good damage throughout the game
I only got junk rares out of my prerelease, but still fared pretty well, went 4-1 and came second.
Had to run W/U/G, but wasn't too bad, lots of flying and slivers.
We got our complimentary boosters for competing, and I got an Archangel of Thune out of it, so I was pretty happy after that.
Also, Haunted Plate Mail did win me a game. It was insanely powerful under the circumstances because it can dodge all sorcery speed removal if you just don't activate it. I can see a pox style deck utilizing it.

Hey guys just tried my hand at building a deck free hand without looking at any other for inspiration. Was wondering if you guys would be willing to give me some C&C on this bad boy. It's a myr deck and I'm pretty sure it's just your average one but I do think improvements could be made.
[url]http://magic.tcgplayer.com/db/deck.asp?deck_id=1144391[/url]
Haaaahahahaha, I bought an M14 fatpack and I pulled a Liliana, an Ajani, a Chandra, and a Rise of the Dark Realms. FOUR MYTHICS, NINE PACKS.

I would get rid of the myr propagators and maybe reduce the amount of battlespheres to 2-3 and add something that could abuse the infinite mana you can produce from the two galvanizers and a palladium myr. Possibly a card that makes target player draw x cards since it can deck someone out and be used to draw cards if you need to

You lack 1 drops, which can be an issue against aggressive decks as you won't have anything to defend with in the early game. I suggest running some mana dorks so you have something to do on turn 1. Or maybe Sol Ring, perhaps? A Palladium Myr on turn 2 is no joke.
I would also look at the number of copies you have of some cards. For example, running 4 Myr Propagators can set you up for some shitty opening hands if you get more than 1. I would drop that number to 2 or maybe 3 at the most.
