    If you want Emry to be a more viable pick more often slap that Jeskai Ascendency into the cube!
    Lotus, Petal, and LED all go infinite with that pair in play and winning with infinite mana, storm count, and looting is relatively trivial. Petal, Ascendency, Emry, Island, plus any white or red source as 4 cards of 7 in any opener is a turn 2 win unless disrupted with a number of conversion pieces potentially lying around somewhere in the deck (pyrite spellbomb, thoracle, brain freeze, aetherflux, forth Eorlingas, etc).
    Outside of Emry combo Ascendency has some use cases within 4 color reanimator shells and storm shells as well, and it’s not awful in aggressive Jeskai shells where it can provide some pump and pressure on turn 4 with a random cantrip letting you get in with those 1, 2, and 3 drops when cast on curve while helping keep the remaining hand gassy and limiting flood draws. Would love to see Jeskai Ascendency in your cube some time for a true Emry pop off game!

      Super slow compared to other green ramp though and +1/+1 counters are not that good of a pay off.
      Other 2 mana mana dorks in vintage are already not that good, but much better compared to biophagus. Wall of roots gives mana on opponent's turns as well as your own turn, Caryatid has hexproof and Sakura Tribe Elder pulls a land out of deck

    I’m curious if this interaction works the way I think it does.
    In the game against Arwen, if you hold dismember, attack, and dismember the creature Arwen targets with the ability, then I think no creature would get lifelink. Since any two of your creatures is lethal, you’d attack, they block the 3 biggest, do the thing posted above, and win? Unless I’m missing something.

    Is there a reason so many players use their removal at beginning of combat instead of after attackers? The only reason I can think of is raid, but I haven't seen anyone use that ability in years, whereas I've seen mistakes like killing a creature land at beginning of combat instead of after attackers. Genuinely curious

He's done the 'kill opponent's creature land at beginning of combat' thing a couple times in videos over the years (I couldn't possibly remember which ones), but I've never seen the beginning of combat thing come up. Even something so simple as vehicles existing would make you want to wait until after attackers to play your removal spell. I'm just trying to rack my brain and think of a reason to do beginning of combat and can't think of any reason.

      ​@@AREAlhero It makes sense against Spellbook Vendor for sure, but why is it common against cards with no relevant abilities? Are these role tokens super common or something?

    • @AREAlhero
      @AREAlhero 9 місяців тому +2

      @@latitude990 It's hard to say definitively either way without context. It's possible that the habit has formed from having to deal with these relevant on attack triggers from other formats, such as recent Standard where the Role tokens debuted. Perhaps its even just for the F7 value as an experienced MODO player.
      The main key is these things don't matter when you're not in the context that its relevant in. Like in your example, sure the existence of Vehicles makes an edge case where this behavior gets punished, but when a Vehicle isn't on the battlefield there's no downside to doing it whichever way comes to you, until a Flash Vehicle with Haste comes into existence somehow. Focusing on these extremely niche edge case scenarios aren't going to manifest in win percentage increases the vast majority of the time, so you're better off allocating the mental bandwidth you have playing the game to more relevant thoughts to be had about the potential game states

    regarding "preordain is a busted card" -- True. Brainstorm, Ponder, and Preordain were all efforts to make a "fixed" ancestral recall, and all of them ended up being super good anyways. (Serum Visions, Visions of Beyond, and Thought Scour probably fit in this as well, but aren't as busted in most contexts)
