12/1/2023 0 Comments Tron madcap experiment![]() If Wizards ever pulls the handbrake on these strategies, say by removing Become Immense from the format, blue control strategies will be poised to come roaring back. Cryptic used to be a major component of Modern, falling by the wayside in recent years as Infect gained popularity, and has been further suppressed by other ultra-fast builds such as Shadow Zoo and Dredge. Kyle Boggemes’ Jeskai Flash was also packing a pair. Madcap Moon was running two Cryptic Commands, and it wasn’t the only deck in the room to do so. It’s far from a hard lock against the format, but strategies like Dredge are going to find it maddeningly difficult to beat in most situations. This is essentially a UR control deck that incorporates the Madcap Experiment/Platinum Emperion combo, which for the uninitiated, is a four mana sorcery which, if it resolves, “tutors” and puts a Platinum Emperion into play, handily protecting the controller’s life total. Razorverge isn’t played quite that much yet, but will it be within the next six months?Īnother surprise deck to show up in the top 32 was Madcap Moon, placing 25th in the hands of Robert Graves. We shouldn’t expect too dramatic an upward shift in price just because of Tom’s success, but this certainly provides a boost to a card that’s got the exact same supply profile as Blackcleave Cliffs, which hangs around $20 today. Razorverge is in the $7 to $8 range today. Not only will players looking to pick up this build of Tron need copies, it also validates selection of the land in other strategies when players wonder what GW land they should be using. Grove of the Burnwillows was an expensive and prohibitive card in Tron, and switching it for Razorverge Thicket is going to open the door for more players to get in. Razorverge Thicket has quietly been climbing in price and popularity in Modern for quite some time, as Melira, white Tax builds, and various Collected Company decks all employ it, as well as a smattering of other strategies. His largest departure from the standard Tron world is that, because of the color shift, he eschews Grove of the Burnwillows for Razorverge Thicket instead. Two World Breakers snuck in alongside two Ugin, the Spirit Dragons, and other than that, most every other card in the main deck is familiar. He’s ditched the Pyroclasms for Path to Exiles, likely as a response to the more singular and/or recursive threats of Shadow Zoo, Infect, and Dredge. It looks much like the GR build, with only a few small tweaks. In a departure from the typical GR build, he showed up to to the SCG Modern Open with GW Tron. ![]() Tom Ross, fan favorite, gave viewers yet another deck to be excited about this weekend. And watch this YouTube channel to keep up to date with Cartel Aristocrats, a fun and informative webcast with several other finance personalities! Lili veil and thought seize rain on your whole day and junk jund is a very hard match-up alongside rwu control.Don’t miss this week’s installment of the MTG Fast Finance podcast, an on-topic, no-nonsense tour through the week’s most important changes in the Magic economy. I've found dodging the damage is easy except against rdw and skull crack but that has largely fallen out of favor for atarkas command. It plays out surprisingly similar to twin relying on patience and control and deciding the exact right time to fetch and swing with blight steel. Once there I built this out and started brewing so far it feels weak against burn and jund but strong against merfolk tron and affinity I also built the shape anew deck and found it to be to costly to run the inkmoths to justify it so then I went for bring to light to get my extra copies and found the mana to be to hard to hit and a bit to slow so I settled on the old twin shell to work with Deck Primers Top Tier Thursday Archive Deck-Specific Subreddits Try to do some metagame testing to get a feel for your deck so you can talk about it better. ![]() People are not here to critique the brew you slapped together with zero thought.
