I’m surprised you didn’t mention the token theme BW had going for it. There’s a lot of good payoff for sacrificing or going wide and it fits the signpost very neatly

I am so excited to draft abzan as much as possible because there are *so* many good token sac value cards. It feels like there is a *very* strong deck if you get enough food and token synergies in abzan

I'm really high on the BW, UG, and BG decks, they all look pretty impressive. Edit: I think it's interesting that my interpretation is quite different from your interpretation of BW as an archetype. When I looked at it I got the impression that it was a deck that mainly cared about creating tokens and then sacrificing them to leverage cards like the signpost and mirkwood bats. To me legendary matters and the ring looked like a minor sub theme in BW.

Yeah, WB looks more like a token/sac hybrid deck to me too. Literally all of to WB cards make a token of some kind. Legendary-matters feels like it's supposed to be the 5 color option with it having the only particularly strong mana fixing options at lower rarity.

According to an official statement by MaRo, Ring/Legendary is the main theme, and sacrifice is a side-theme. On the other hand, that statement also mentioned Blue/Black having a minor Human theme and Blue/Red having a Wizards theme, both of which are (almost) non-existant, so it is possible that the idea for what themes there were was updated some time during development, and MaRo wasn't informed.

Saruman the white doesn't explicitly mention instant or sorcery spells but I feel like he'll be best in that deck because usually it's easier to double-spell when you're casting lots of instants and sorceries. Maybe also the blue-white since you'll be drawing more cards?

great breakdown, I think UG scry looks strongest by far. WU draw-two feels really underdeveloped compared to the other colour pairs imo, barely feels "there" without much clear support (though I hadn't considered the Ring's effect for getting the extra draw).
@Controlqueen31
Жыл бұрын
UG is strong only if you pick good uncommons that abuse that effect, like Elrond or Arwen. Ofc if you open a rare that goes with the mechanic is a hit. For me, BG or GW, even Abzan, is the coolest colour combination if you go with the food mechanic

I really think they should have focused in on the amass, instead of just orc army's you could have human, goblin, elf and dwarf army tokens, also if they threw in some battles that would be cool flavor wise. Like battle of helmsdeep and the hornburg or minas tirith and pellanor fields
@RasmusVJS

The set was finished before they made the Battle type. And I think keeping Amass to the Orcs in Grixis makes a lot of sense, with the Orc army vs the Fellowship being similar to the Lazotep army vs the Planeswalkers in WAR.

@@kkplx team synergies are terrible except for human spam, only good cards are massively undercosted and appropriately costed cards like Nazgul don't really have the impact you would expect from the lost Numenorian kings. I'd rather they lose a power/toughness and effect damage so I could play them on turn 3 or 4. Then there's the tiny, insignificant problem where none of the factions actually play the way they function in lore and no white hand forces of Isengard. Rohan, being my go to example is horse archer and peasant blocks using ambush tactics. In game they are human tokens with haste and a bunch of equipment for some reason. I'd be more willing to accept the red if it wasn't for this weird "Helms Deep was in the mountains so obviously they're red" tone. What does Gondor do? They make like knight tokens, +1 counters and get tempted by the ring a bunch I guess but nowhere does their famous blacksmiths feature in their playstyle. After watching drafts I finally realized why it's so bad, limited. The set was made for limited drafting in a way that factions outright don't matter.

They only did it to generate hate towards it to get it out there in the media so that it might gain some more people playing and more attention towards magic I would assume. Any other reason just seems weird and bad. Awful tactic but hey rings of power did it and it…somewhat barely worked idk
