      Heck, just Jaxis + Ratadrabik is pretty decent, even without the Kaya doubling (which is sadly no longer in Standard).
      You'd end up with two Ratadrabiks (one real, one token) and two Jaxises (both tokens), which is nothing to sneeze at.

    Seth; Around the 18 minute mark you're looting with the Celestus without cards in hand. Useful for filling the graveyard but it sounds like you think the life is tied to the loot. It's not. You gain 1 life and then you can loot if you want to. But maybe you're just filling the yard for the 3 drop dragon mana dork?

    Jaxis would be so sweet here. Pay two to blitz her, discard a card to copy a legendary dragon that immediately dies into a zombie and draws you a card, then Jaxis draws you another card and turns into a zombie at the end of turn. Or cycle a card to copy the zombie lord and it'll immediately turn into a non legendary so you have two of the effects on board and if you blitzed her you'll get two Jaxis zombies at end of turn

    I played against this deck as Grixis Vampires and it was a tough match. I only won because the opp swung in and left behind 1 blocker(summoning sick) which I killed with a flashed in Ertai and they were at 3.
    Without vanishing verse, the Kamigawa Dragons have gotten MUCH better. As much as I love him, Junji has been the worst. The other two are just a ton of value.
    All the dragons are very good vs LotV and pretty much all red or black removal.

      I think that's the biggest thing about a lot of the top standard meta, most of these deck use the graveyard in some way or have death triggers. It's going to make exiling things extremely important, we have already seen a lot of black decks start using soul transfer main board for flexible removal. With all the things in this set that wants exiled it's the number 1 reason to run white. Wandering emperor, leyline Binding, temporary lockdown, rite of oblivion, borrowed time, all of these are removal worth at least splashing white for in most 2 color decks just to improve your match up into Jund and Rakdos which look like will be the top meta decks in standard for awhile that and GW Enchantments which it's still useful against to get rid of kami.

    When I played with Dragons and Ratadrabik I also included Rith as green split but yeah Dragon legends with Rivaz and Ratadrabik is super sweet.

    By the time the dust settles in standard I'm certain there's going to be a Mardu deck that's tier 1. Red and black are so strong right now, we have seen the things those colors are doing in jund and rakdos midrange and white got a lot of great support cards. While white and WB don't have enough to fill a tier 1 on their own I think they have a lot of tech that RB wants and I think it is enough to take down the mono colored decks and step toe to toe with Esper and Jund.

    I don't know where to suggest deck ideas but. Against the Odds deck: Acererak in Modern with Heartless Summoning, & the new card that lets you replace a black mana with Phyrexian mana similar to how K'rrik does but it's standard legal, whatever that's called... You assemble those 3 and Acererak only costs 2 life to cast. So if you have 2x Soul Warden effects or Aetherflux Reservoir or something then you have infinite dungeoning, storm count, mana, life, etc

    • @noesunyoutuber7680
      @noesunyoutuber7680 Рік тому

      4-5 card combos are generally real bad in constructed Magic, but it's a neat idea - I'd just question whether or not the shell would be good, especially since Heartless Summoning actually kills most Soul Wardens by giving them -1/-1. The four cards that make up your combo in mono-black require a total of 10 mana (4 for Defiler of Flesh, 4 for Aetherflux, 2 for Heartless Summoning) and don't do much on their own.

      With how difficult it is for low-to-the-ground aggro to recover from a sweeper that typically also gains 4-8 life and puts them one further life point away each time you remove new threats, it's a pretty savage beating. It can win the game singlehandedly against an aggro deck that's not capable of outgrowing it.
