funny interaction in game 2: if you had named LotV with Peacekeeper, their loyalty abilities would also have cost 2 more to activate since it is an activated, non-mana ability.

Been playing a slightly different version of this deck for months now with over 62% winning rate. Peacekeeper is way underrated in this format. I would definitely play 4 copies in this deck for a better aggro experience. Disrupting oppos hand has been key to win a lot of games, specially against control decks.

Because he knows the meta, if the opponent casted the sunfall then it would be over, no matter if he was at 1 or 20. LVD would have no time to rebuild and the control guy would just take over the game, with bindings, atraxas etc. So yes, it was a close one.

Question: In your gameplay demonstrations, I often saw 3 lands in your starting hand, with only 22 lands in your deck. For transparency, could you tell us how many of your starting hands only contain 1-2 lands? Or how many matches (in %) you are stuck on 2 lands and don't draw a third one? I played Mono-White Humans for several months now and today I decided to increase my land count from 22 lands to 24 lands, because there were so many matches where I was stuck on 2 lands which obviously disables all the important 3-drops. That said, these matches were unnecessary losses due to missing land drops. Just curious, how you can get away with onls 22 lands while having fifteen (!) 3-drops (I count Knight-Errant of Eos as 3-drop) because that seems a bit greedy to me. I always want to be able to play my Adeline/Cathar/Peacekeeper on turn 3 and I couldn't do that reliably with only 22 lands in my deck.
@LegenVD

There are some good articles by Frank Karsten on building manabases for constructed. Especially with the hand smoothing in best-of-one we're still around 90% likely to hit our third land in time. You could run one or two more, but flooding is one of the main problems with playing aggro.
@dscelle
11 ай бұрын
@@LegenVD I agree that flooding with lands is a problem. But getting land screwed is a problem, too. At least in my limited experience, when I played Mono-White Humans with 24 lands, I often have 2-3 lands in starting hand and draw another 1-3 lands over the course of a match. Which is fine for me, especially when you think of Intrepid Adversary and using its pump effect 1-2 times. On the other hand, when I was playing Mono-White Humans with only 22 lands, then the bulk of my starting hands consisted of 2 lands (rarely 3 lands) and there were a lot of matches where I didn't draw a 3rd land until the match was over or at least I had to wait multiple turns to draw the 3rd land and to be able to use my 3-drops, but then it was already too late to have an impact. I really want a kind of guarantee that I hit my 3rd land until turn 3 so that I can play the 3-drop without any delays. With 24 lands in deck I seem able to do that, with 22 lands I often fail.

Cards games are always included with luck. Even pro players got screwed coz of bad luck. The very basic of bad luck imo is you already mulligan a lot but still got a bad or not convincing starting hand and your opponent got a perfect draw. Next are the succeeding draws. Your opponent always draw answers and threats while you always draw lands.
