Shahar Shenhar - Jund: I was testing with Huey Jensen, Owen Turtenwald, and Reid Duke in Las Vegas. We're all playing the same type of Jund deck, but it's a secret why until tomorrow. anyone have the list that these guys are running? | ||

The card is very narrow in its scope until we get something that's more reinforced towards devotion. As of right now, there's not a whole lot you can do with it. Like you can do some cute stuff with the enchant mountain, destroy mountain cards from Theros, but that's all I can realistically think of in the new standard. | ||

You can use it to turn on/off the Gods. Also, I have a pile of really good Junk cards and have been looking to build a midrange deck. Some amount of Blood Barons, Obzedats, Voices, Varolzes, Smiters, and Lions will be beating peoples' faces in sometime soon if I have anything to do with it. | ||

Well yeah, but letting you alpha through a God seems fun, turning on your god seems fun, and making a billion tokens with the "Comes into play, make tokens = to devotion" cards seems nice. | ||

It is a 6 booster sealed... does anyone know what the hero is and how that works? http://mythicspoiler.com/ Hero cards are at the very bottom. No idea how they work tho. Probably start with them in play or something? | ||

Is there any way to get a quick refresher course and learn about all the new cards in modern? thanks a lot Duels of the Planeswalkers, if you're willing to drop another 10 bucks onto Steam. EDIT: Pardon me. You probably already know how to play, lol. In terms of learning the recent tactics and decks, that's another matter. | ||

Each player plays differently and can win better with different types of decks. Yes some people can netdeck the "best deck" and win, but lots of players(myself included) win more when they approach the format from their own perspective and building/testing their own deck. | ||

You can't expect him to build a deck without even knowing what cards are in the pool. And even if he does, he won't understand why it's winning or losing. If you want to understand a format, your first priority should be to look up all of the tier 1&2 decks and play around with several of them. Rogue deckbuilding can't be successful unless you understand what it is you're trying to beat. | ||
