Green Based Devotion Deck

Image
I had always enjoyed Standard and in this time M15 that is released marks one of the best core sets that we have seen since perhaps M11 or M12. I had fond memories of the previous sets as the printing of the Titan cycles that sees alot of decks going high up the mana curves to play the Titans. I know that I am fond of the green color side of Magic ever since quite a while ago which most of my competitive decks starts from well Green. This time round I had designed another deck that perhaps alot of people had seen already and after piloting it I had brought it to some form of success which nets me some promo foils for FNM. Why I had the idea to make this deck? It comes from actually one card. And that is... So anyone do not understand? That means if we have devotion (number of mana symbols of the permanents we control) we can do well wonders! I was thinking about that for a while and I wanted to do a few things with the mana with some green cards that I have in my collec...

My Step into Modern in 2014

Image
After missing from my blog for a while.....an update will be.....I had started Modern format in Magic: The Gathering The step into modern is not easy as it requires.. Good Skills to anticipate and also to understand and predetermine opponent strategies from a vast amount of cards. (From 8th edition until the newest set in Standard Source : http://archive.wizards.com/Magic/tcg/resources.aspx?x=judge/resources/sfrmodern ). If you followed me correctly that is a whopping 8383 (Correct as time of posting) legal cards!! To start off I had bought the event modern deck for well $100 (I had trusted that the price is a pre-order price) and nevertheless it dropped to $75 in games haven after that which well I had to blame myself for jumping in too soon. However for such packs you don't really know if the price is going to go straight down or jumps up, but i'm happy to get a copy. It had cards like Elspeth Knight-Errant and Sword of Feast of Famine which I don't m...

The Combo that (nearly) won me the FNM Foil

Image
Hi Everyone to my blog! Yes yes...it is going to be a MTG blog again...It was so exciting that I have to share with all fellow players about this and what I have done yesterday that made some of my opponents amused and still happy after scooping. What exactly contributes to a happy game of magic that left people pondering after the game about the deck that you are playing? You can read about the junk rites deck that I was playing last last week (I had no MTG for last week and this Wednesday Due to work), just have to scroll back to the post that I won the Farseek Foil. This week I changed a few cards. I dropped a Gyre Sage and 2 Copies of Lingering Souls for 3 copies of Undying Evil. What!?!?!? Some of you may ask... why that card??? I was actually watching a match a versus match on Starcity Games Youtube channel while having dinner in office on a day that I had to work late (Instead of going for MTG)...And I saw this Card in action and it completely synergies with...

Farseek Fnm Foil I had a great tournament last week in regards to getting the Farseek Fnm Foil and well I am glad that I did not missed the tournament on Friday. I had built a Junk Reanimator using cards and using the very first concept when I played during Return to Ranvica with Grisly Salvage and Mulch as my main condition to draw into cards that I wanted.
