Elving Pod Posted by Danny the awesome | Filed under Deck Ideas Direct From The Creation Mill, General Mtg Chat Hi there everyone. Today I’d like to talk about one of the great cards to come out fairly recently. I’m of course talking about the Birthing Pod. The Birthing pod is such a great card; it opens up so many deck ideas, like for example the splicer decks. I’m sure that after the release of the Innstrad block many more options will become available. Well since we have to wait a little while til... (more)

If you thought Elves in Standard were a thing of the past with the rotation of Lorwyn and Shadowmoor, think again! Pedestrian used this list successfully on Magic Online. Check out the powerful interactions with Nissa Revane and the way Oran-Rief, the Vastwood makes an army of tiny monsters into a far more imposing force. Toss in Great Sable Stag and a touch of white for the sideboard, and you've got a brand new Standard masterpiece! (more)

A Planeswalker’s Guide to Zendikar: Bala Ged and Elves

Savor the Flavor ArchiveMagic Creative Team ArchiveBala Ged he subcontinent of Bala Ged, separated from the continent of Guul Draz by a miles-long marsh, seems stuck in time, a primordial throwback to the way Zendikar might have been eons ago. Damp, fetid air, thick vegetation, algae-choked marshes, and mold-covered thickets—these are the elements that define Bala Ged. The subcontinent is also home to the surrakar, a reptilian hu... (more)

Elves was all the rage in last year's Extended season, but it wasn't the first time the tribe had seen success. No, since the beginning Elves have been with us from the lowly Llanowar all the way up to the Elvish Archdruid. Now you can even play them in Pauper! JJonasN used this list to some success in a recent Magic Online tournament in that very format. (more)

Combo Elves have been all the rage of late, using Elvish Archdruid alongside Heritage Druid and Nettle Sentinel to repeatedly cast Primal Command, all in one turn. Apparently no one told Steve Pulliam, who powered into the Top 8 of a Pro Tour Qualifier for Austin in Portland, Oregon with a completely different take on the Elf archetype. He paired the most powerful and cost efficient Elves with a modicum of burn to control the red zone. Particularly cool? His combo of Manamorphose and Talara's Battalion! (more)

The story out of Japanese Nationals centered around an explosive Elf deck that generated fast mana and combed Regal Force and Primal Command to win the game. It was Elves that were again the big story out of French Nationals, but Mongilardi Gilles eschewed all the fancy bells and whistles of the green-white versions for the tried and true Rock approach.

So as the name suggests this is a variation on Garrett's RRS build. If you haven't seen that list yet scroll down the page and check it out . Seriously, I'll wait ............. whistles twiddles thumbs day dreams blahblahblahblah....Oh you're back. So I assume that you get that the idea is to get a bunch (yes that is the technical term) of mana (primarily from Archie) and win by huge Banefire or some other such burn spell. Yes. Well. This deck does that only with the added bonus of ser... (more)

Today we're going to discuss deck building, namely the requirements of fail-safe measures and alternative win conditions, for those times when you may just be getting screwed out of your main strategy. Let's start by looking back for a second at last week's RRS deck list. After some rigorous testing and modification I have finalized the list as follows... (more)

Looking for a fun, relaxing format to try on any random afternoon? Try Singleton, available on Magic Online. The format requires players use no more than a single copy of each card (other than basic lands) in their deck. BryTheFryGuy managed to Top 8 a recent Premier Event in the digital world using this deck. Notice a theme? Even with the one card restriction, Bry put together a whopper of an Elf deck! (more)

I haven’t updated in a little while but it’s been a busy weekend (mostly playing Bejeweled Blitz on Facebook and watching the Rap Chop video). I appreciate all the hits I’ve been getting lately. I guess a lot of people are doing the same thing I’m doing right now, scouring the ‘net for tech in the hopes of finding a golden nugget that crushes all. Sadly I don’t think it’s there. Standard will be the same until M10 becomes legal. After that… eh, it probably won’t cha... (more)

So last night, after wrangling my daughter to sleep I decided to do a little testing on MtGO. I didn’t have a ton of time and I was pretty tired, so I didn’t jump in an 8-man Standard queue and opted for the wonky Tournament Practice room instead. I’m now weilding the Green/Black elves build that I previously posted. The only difference is: -2 Twilight Mire, +1 Forest, +1 Swamp (because I don’t want to pay 14 tix for Mires thank you very much). So here’s a few matches (a couple of whic... (more)

So, the field is shaping up for nationals, with a few more cards spoiled for M10. Red is looking a little silly, with Lightning Bolt, Ball Lightning and the return of SGC more than making up for the nerfing of our friend Mr Fantastic, but there we go. Further testing has been put on hold until more M10 info is known, but with my final exam tomorrow, I will have much more time to play draft and sealed, either in real life or on MODO, so I should get a good handle on the format by the time the GP rolls aro...

The Atlanta StarCityGames.com $5000 Standard Open was a fairly disappointing tournament for me. I decided to battle with my trusty BW Tokens deck into a mediocre finish. I started off strong at 4-1, but lost a crucial game 3 against my friend Chris Greene in Round 6, and he went on to dominate the rest of the tournament with his ridiculous aggressive Jund deck. To be honest, the tournament wasn't as fun for me as I had hoped. It seemed like almost every game I won or lost was completely one-sided, involv... (more)

We’ve reached about the middle of the season for the Pro Tour: Austin qualifier season, and I thought I would take a look at the trend in recent events to see where things are going and have a gander at figuring out the twists and turns of this particular metagame. Every one acts differently, even if they tend to work in more-or-less the same sorts of ways, and since we have an excellent assortment of high-quality data to look at in analyzing the trends, I thought I would focus on the flow of the metagam...

PTQ Austin Tournament Report Top 8 Hi there. Last week I was looking for a standard deck to play and decided on G/B Elves. The deck is really good in certain metagames and I thought if I could just get past the token decks I’d have smooth sailing in the upcoming PTQ. The only problem was… I didn’t have half the deck. I didn’t really have half of any deck. You see, I haven’t played much constructed IRL Magic lately. My last constructed event was Regionals where I ran a Jund homebrew that was pretty awf... (more)
