Ah, gotcha. I will be very surprised if they don't include Skyship Weatherlight or Predator, Flagship in this FTV. The weatherlight saga was a huge part of the lore. Then again, WotC does make some odd decisions so...

My list has been confirmed for cards in FTV: Lore. Definitely some odd choices

Nicol Bolas (First ever FTV reprint? big_smile)

Bolas was in FTV:Dragons

I'm really not sure which direction I think WotC is going to go with this set.

What I meant by "First ever FTV reprint" is for Wizards to reprint a card already in FTV.

Looks like spoilers were all leaked.

Dark Depths, Marit Lage token, and Umezawa's Jitte being the extremely notable ones.

Tolaria West
Conflux
Cabal Ritual
Obliterate
Momir Vig, Simic Visonary
Beseech the Queen
Glissa, the Traitor
Memnarch
Helvault
Mind's Desire
Near-Death Experience
Phyrexian Processor
Unmask

I'm a little disappointed that they used the bad artwork for Glissa. I personally enjoyed the pre-release artwork much more. These cards were leaked on manaleak. Are they a reliable source?

Triskaidekaphobia + tree of perdition.

Any help?

No spoilers yet and it comes out in about 3 weeks? Is this going to be something that they spoil everything with 1 week before release? What do you guys guess or HOPE is reprinted in this set?

My reprint wishlist:

Liliana of the Veil (less likely)
Sliver Legion (personal gain haha and because Sliver Queen is on the reserve so she's out)
Nicol Bolas (First ever FTV reprint? big_smile)
Any of the Elspeths (For the feels)
Ugin, the Spirit Dragon

I'm sure I can think of more but not in this present time.

Artful dodge was in the list lmao. So is Slip Through Space

Yeah I realize that now... I was half aslep when I wrote my reply... didn't know X could be zero though, but makes sense.

Ah okay.

If this is a combo why all the tempo creatures?

-4x Delver of Secrets
-2x Young Pyromancer
-2x Monastery Swiftspear
-2x Stormchaser Mage
-1x Kiln Fiend
-2 Night's whisper

+4x flamekin Harbinger
+4 Serum Visions
+3 Expedite
+2 Dispel

You're sideboard is very strange and also 19 cards.

Sideboard
-2 Rakka Mar
-2 Ash Zealot
-2 Skull crack
-2 Scuttling Doom engine
-1 Rakdo's Return
-2 Aligned Hedron Network
-2 Dimir Charm
-1 Hurkyl's Recall

+3 Graf Diggers' Cage
+3 Ghost Quarter
+1 Fork Bolt
+1 Spellskite
+1 Twisted Image
+3 Anger of the Gods

Combo is fragile. I added temp creatures to give me another out in case they do something.

My sideboard was meant to be weird...unique perhaps. I'm not playing serum visions because cannot pick them up (currently).

Rakka Mar was meant for Control for shits and giggles.
Recall vs affinity.
Doom engine vs control
ash zealot was questionable.

This was a build that I haven't printed + played with yet. I expected to find a few errors with it.

How does "Lavaclaw Reaches" fit into the combo?

In the same way that Wandering Fumarole does. X can be 0.

Not sure if there is a thread for this already but we should post all speculations on sleepers, etc. in this thread.

I'll update this with my thoughts later

I just got back into magic a few weeks ago and noticed a few price spikes in some cards. ANYWAYS, I had a question on a possible sleeper card? (for modern).

http://i.tcgplayer.com/58288.jpg

This card possibly in the new Eldrazi decks that are sprouting up? I was told no, because it was a 3 drop but that was just one person. Thoughts?

They should be legit. Like he/she stated above, every print tends to be a bit different

Personally I like the wight over the desecration demon and Mind Funeral over Grind but those are both preferences really.

To fill out the last three slots I think I'd probably go something like 2 Lightning Bolts 1 Mind Funeral or some such.

On the sideboard front something like...

2 Shatter Storm / Hurky's Recall
2 Thoughtseize
2 torpor orb
4 Anger of the Gods
2 Fulminator/Tectonic Edge/ghost quarter
3 Tormod's Crypt

Main Deck I think you have a bit of space to tweak your mana too since your red requirements aren't too bad. Something like:

-3 Mountains
+1 Blood Crypt
+2 Tectonic Edge/Ghost Quarter

Could probably work.


Hmm thanks!

Hmm true.

Let's go over my CURRENT list.

Lands (22)
x3 Scalding Tarn
x2 Watery Grave
x2 Steam Vents
x4 Mountains
x5 Islands
x6 Swamps

Creatures(14)
x3 Vexing Devil
x2 Desecration Demon
x4 Jace's Phantasm
x2 Wight of Precinct Six
x2 Dark Confidant
x1 Rakdos Cackler

Sorcery (13)
x3 Glimpse the Unthinkable
x2 Damnation
x2 Thoughtseize
x4 Gitaxian Probe
x2 Devastation Tide

Instants (8)
x1 Thunderous Wrath
x1 Lightning Bolt
x2 Visions of Beyond
x4 Archive Trap

Enchantments (2)
x2 Bitterblossom

Planeswalker (1)
x1 Liliana of the Veil

Now what I'll do is take out some cards
-1 Liliana
-1 Thunderous Wrath
-4 Gitaxian Probe
-1 Rakdos Cackler
-3 Vexing Devil
-2 Wight

Then I'll add in
+1 Glimpse
+2 Mind Funeral
+2 Hedron Crab
+4 Thought Scour?
+2 Mind Grind

3 more slots

SIDEBOARD
+4 Shatter Storm
+2 Hurky's Recall
+2 Thoughtseize
+2 Fulminator Mage

5 more slots, not sure

I'll probably replace a few cards for Mana Leaks and Remands.

I have a Witchbane Orb in side vs Mirror matches (mill)
I have Glaring Spotlight to take care of that Geist guy.

Hmm I really like the way my deck runs. I mistakenly took a hand without a black mana(deck didn't shuffle well D: ) and i ended up paying for it later. Around Turn 4-5 I drew one and I was at 10 life O_O (they have an awkward deck...they thought fetch lands weren't relevant in his deck lol.

They had 12 life.

I had 1.

Damnation

Next Turn Desecration

Win~

Thunderous wrath is trash I'll admit xD I just threw it in there temp. because it's a hilarious card to run. I think before I make changes to the deck, I should actually see how well it runs against other COMPETITIVE DECKS. I'll play the store owners American Control (Red/White/Blue).

I guess the point of my deck was if i couldn't kill my opp with milling + phantasm  + wight then I'd just kill them with Desecration (attempt to).

ALSO

Vexing Devil is in there for the early pressure vs opp. If i don't get him until later game, he still acts as a chump blocker (4/3) for 1.

Probe is in there because it can potential be a 0 drop but you lose 2 life in the process.

It's possible that I could buy one for $90 but i doubt you're ok with that?

At first my deck was pretty terrible because it ran really high cost cards like Consuming Abberation and Nicol, Bolas.

Edited my list with a little help. Maybe you guys can help me out? Our locals allow us to use 20 proxies smile so that helps out alot!

Now the decklist

Lands (21)
x3 Scalding Tarn
x2 Watery Grave
x2 Steam Vents
x4 Mountains
x5 Islands
x5 Swamps

Creatures(14)
x3 Vexing Devil (Self-explanatory, it pressures your opp)
x2 Desecration Demon (Mainly was for the control mirror but I suppose it works in main)
x4 Jace's Phantasm (Self-explanatory)
x2 Wight of Precinct Six (Not a bad card overall)
x2 Dark Confidant (Self-explanatory)
x1 Rakdos Cackler (Most likely taking out because it's not really needed at all)

Sorcery (14)
x3 Glimpse the Unthinkable
x2 Damnation
x3 Thoughtseize
x4 Gitaxian Probe
x2 Devastation Tide

Instants (8)
x1 Thunderous Wrath (Actually might take this out)
x1 Lightning Bolt (It's really great but do i take it out? or do i pick up more?)
x2 Visions of Beyond
x4 Archive Trap

Enchantments (2)
x2 Bitterblossom

Planeswalker (1)
x1 Liliana of the Veil


I was thinking of taking out the Thunderous Wrath and Cackler for 2 more bolts or something else.

Sideboard (15)
N/A

My sideboard is noobish because it's not proxied but what CHEAPish sideboard do you guys suggest?

Yes, it's legal. Fetch lands can also fetch Shocklands
