She's in a good 30% of the extended meta right now as well. >.>

[oldoldman]

Basically if you can support her she is at least in the board.

[oldoldman]

Just did an 8-4 where I opened a lotus cobra and won, success!

[Zilong]

Clearly wizard need to print a prowhite ornithopter!

[oldoldman]

Extended PTQs are the worst. I guess I'm gonna throw together some generic affinity build. I have a martyr deck but that's kind of shitty in the current meta.

[Tricen]

I wish I had the cardpool for extended, I'd love to play. Had an EDH tourny (non sanctioned but prize support) last thursday. How fare is turn 2 Iona, Shield of Emeria lol...

[oldoldman]

Does Iona stop you from playing your general? I've got almost all of the cards for affinity from when I played during MD5 lol.

[Tricen]

Since you cast your general, she would stop you from casting it.

That's fucking weak.

[Tricen]

With my Doran deck, I can pretty much turn 2 Iona for the lulz occasionally. But turn 4/5 is usually when I can get her out. Doesn't do much against a 3-5color deck though :/

[Linsivi]

Tawnos's Coffin > Iona :D

This and the tiger. My god, am I going to get to make a Stompy deck again.

[Zilong]

The tiger makes for a really shitty rogue elephant considering that you can't pump him, and the 2 toughness would make him trade with pretty much any turn 2 play from a creature deck

Though I suppose against deck with less creature, it'd work out better, still need to drop it pretty early since any countermagic would be 2 for 1 for the tiger, but it fucks the curve and stuns your development, neither of that is great for stompy deck.

Also...about Boros having shitty late game...

And my other options for a three power, one drop outside of legacy that aren't red one shots are... what exactly?

And remember, Nacatl only works if you're RGW.

[Zilong]

Not much of an other option, though you could just not play mono green stompy and play some other green based aggro deck that's less retarded in their mana management.

Though I suppose the rest of worldwake could offer something better for the archetype, but I honestly doubt the baloth alone can change much, considering it has no evasion or protection on its own.

[Tricen]

Holy shit, WWK is gunna be fun. 5/3 beter for 4 that makes non-artifact spells cost 1 more is sexy. Makes bolt cost 2 to kill it ;3. (It's an artifact).

Oran-Rief, the Vastwood would like to have a word with you.

(not saying the tiger is playable, but if you are playing stompy, you better be playing Oran-Rief [in Standard at least])

is honestly the card I am most looking forward to thus far spoiled.

[oldoldman]

That pretty much just looks like crappy card draw from here.

[Zilong]

Instant concentrate for 1 more that needs landfall...it's not even remotely close to good.

[oldoldman]

They seem to just be afraid to make good blue spells these days after so many blue cards have bit them in the ass. We'll see how the new jace does though.
