This week in Magic: A Modern Primer
Thursday, July 24th, 2014
Is it still Grand Prix Boston or is it Grand Prix Worcester? Even worse, do we call it Grand Prix Boston/Worcester? Actually, according to the official site of “Magic: The Gathering,” they have it listed as Grand Prix Boston-Worcester. Well, however you see it, the Grand Prix is finally here. Are you ready for it?
I’m as ready as I have ever been for a tournament. Never have I ever prepared this much for any kind of tournament. I have the attention span of bubble gum. For me to stick with a deck this long is unheard of. There is, of course, plenty of time for me to call an audible and switch decks the night before.
If all goes as planned, I will be running Mono Red Burn. This is slightly different from Red Deck Wins as this deck runs fewer creatures and a heavier burn package. This also should not come as a surprise as I have been writing about the deck for the past several weeks. Note: I do plan on finishing that series. I’ll most likely do it once the GP ends and will have final thoughts about it.
What about you? What are you planning on running? Don’t worry; there really is no wrong answer to that question. Here is a quick breakdown among the three different types of meta: Combo (37%), Control (27%), and Aggro (36%). Now that we know this info, let’s break things down even more. We’ll go a little more in-depth with each meta and look at the different decks that are the most popular within their meta.
Aggro
To no one’s surprise the top dog here is Affinity. This deck is so good and very fast. When you’re on the other side of things, there is no greater fear than watching your opponent drop their hand on the first turn of the game. Who knew that something like Signal Pest, such a small and very un-intimidating creature, can be so deadly? When he’s teamed up with his buddies Memnite and Ornithopter (even Inkmoth Nexus) things can quickly get out of hand. Knowing your opponent is playing Affinity is not always the end of all things. I’ve seen plenty of these decks sputter out and run out of gas. Keep your head cool and things will be okay.
Next up is Jund. This is one of those decks that took every powerful card in the format and smooshed them all together. Take a look at its creature package for example: 4x Tarmogoyf, 4x Dark Confidant, 3x Scavenging Ooze, and 3x Courser of Kruphix. A very strong creature package teamed with a very disruptive spell package, and you have the makings of the one of the best Aggro decks in the format. Thoughtseize, Inquisition, and Liliana are the best in the game. Get ready for a fight and have a well prepared backup plan ready when these are pointed at you.
I played against a UR Aggro deck at a recent GPT. I remember staring down a Young Pyromancer on turn two and had the choice of burning my opponent or killing the creature. It was early on in my Mono Red Burn experience, so I opted to burn my opponent in the face. I can definitely tell you that I paid for that mistake in full. The next time around, I did not hesitate to burn it and I went on to win the match. This deck is just a conglomerate of Delvers and a spell package tune for tempo. Don’t let this deck’s appearance fool you. It packs a solid punch.
Merfolk rounds out the top five decks in the Aggro meta. This deck takes full advantage of the Aether Vial and shows why this card is so powerful, no matter what format it’s in. You need to take these fish seriously. In it’s entire creature package, half of them are lords. Each one pumping the other up. Add Aether Vial into the mix and you have a recipe for destruction. One thing to keep in mind, though, is that while the Merfolk player is playing islands, they don’t play many counterspells. Don’t be afraid to run a spell or two out out there.
Control
I’ve always been a big fan of Tron decks. Therefore, to see this as top deck in the Control meta makes me very happy. Playing with the Urza Tron lands almost feels like cheating in a way, but you’re not. Being able to produce seven mana on turn three allows the player to do many silly things. One of those things is being able to cast Karn Liberated. At first glance, sure, he’s a pretty powerful planeswalker, but on turn three it’s not fair. After his first positive activation, he sits there at ten loyalty and almost impossible to kill with creatures. Even worse, he exiles permanents getting around any kind of indestructibility they might have. If you let things get too far, he just resets the game.
Tron decks have numerous ways to have fun besides Karn. If they need to they can play Wurmcoil Engines and even CAST Emrakul, the Aeons Torn.
In the recent weeks, I’ve seen GB Rock decks pick up in popularity. With their package of hand disruption, I’m not surprised, especially since Twin is one of the most popular decks in the format. I know what you’re saying, though. “Jund runs a similar package.” Yes, but now we’re dealing with two colors. In a format where mana can be a serious issue, having stability can be more appealing than added aggressiveness. Obstinate Baloth is a nice touch. Not only is it great against Mono Red decks, but it helps Rock players with sustainability, and Liliana is a real threat. Imagine discarding a Baloth to a Liliana? Ouch.
I’m going to put UW and UWx Midrange decks together. This color combination will always be a very popular choice. The strat is a little simple: control the game until late, then let your man-lands take over. It takes a special person to pilot control these kinds of decks. However, once mastered these decks can prove to be very powerful. With the splash of Red, the player gains access to spells like Lightning Bolt, Electrolyze, and an endless amount of ammo for your side board. The obvious difference between the decks is how aggressive the UWx Midrange decks can be. In the end, it really comes down to your play style.
Combo
This meta has some of the most powerful and popular decks in the format. However, while it may be difficult, they are not unbeatable. First up is Birthing Pod. This deck was a house in Standard. With an expanded line-up, there isn’t any surprise that it’s, once again, running the show. Although, from what I’ve heard, there hasn’t been much spotted in the Massachusetts area – at least in the South Shore. This is one of those tool box decks that plays numerous one-ofs. These “one-ofs” are enough to win a person the game and match. The creature package from casting cost one through three are almost the same every time: Birds, Voice, Finks, and and Hierarch. Getting a Pod out as fast as you can is key and once it’s out, things can start to turn in favor of whoever played it first.
One of the most popular versions was the Melira Pod combo. This aimed to get a creature like Viscera Seer out with Melira, then continuously sacrifice Kitchen Finks to scry through your entire deck and gain millions of life. Another cute combination I came across, recently, was the interaction between Archangel of Thune and Spike Feeder. I was lucky enough to stop this frightening combo, but I emptied my hand in the process. It was worth it. There are even version of Pod that play Kiki-Jiki. This has the same premise as the Twin Control decks, but uses a Birthing Pod to get the tools into play.
Speaking of Twin, this is one of the most popular decks I have seen in the area. Again, there are a couple of versions people like to play. There is the regular Twin Exach combo deck and then there is Tarmo-Twin. The regular version of the deck plays a strong control game, while it try to get it’s combo pieces. You know your opponent is trying to go off if they play either a Deceiver Exarch or Pestermite at the end of your turn. This tends to lead into a Splinter Twin being played the following turn. The Tarmo-Twin decks play (if you couldn’t tell already) Tarmogoyfs as an alternative win condition. At first sight it seems a little weird, but this just proves how powerful this little guy is. Having trouble with a deck your playing? Play four Tarmogoyfs and all your troubles will go away – even if you’re not playing Green; force it in there.
So how does it work, really? Well, once your opponent has either a Pestermite or Deceiver Exarch in play, they will cast a Splinter Twin onto it. The aura gives the creature the ability to tap itself and put a copy of itself into play with haste. The neat trick here is that when either of these creatures comes into play, they can untap a permanent they control. Can you guess what get’s untapped? That’s right, the original creature with the Splinter Twin attached to it. The player goes on to make enough copies to get through your defenses and kills you via a swarm of creatures.
Scapeshift is another very popular Combo deck in the area. There is a little bit of math involved here, but if you understand the timing (and the person who plays this deck will, most certainly) then you can control one of the most devastating decks in the format. Scapeshift is a sorcery speed spell that allows the caster to sacrifice any number of lands. They then search their library for that many lands and put them into play. Sounds boring, right? Well you’re partially correct. The key card they have to get is Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle. Without this card, the deck plays a lot of lands (specifically mountains) for nothing. Be a little cautious though, Scapeshift sometimes packs a small package of counterspells. I learned the hard way that this deck can have up to four Izzet Charms. This is bad when you’re a Mono Red Burn player.
The last of the Combo decks are Infect, Living End, and Storm. Infect is one of those decks that you know right away if you’re playing. You don’t know how many times I’ve heard people groan at the turn one Glistener Elf. It could potentially kill you on turn two. As long as you keep it off of anything it can pump up, then you should be okay. Living End is one of those decks that can just show up and win a tournament. A big reason is because no one knows how to play against it. For some, the Cascade mechanic is still a bit of a mystery to them. Just remember this, you can still counter a spell that is being cast via Cascade.
Finally, Storm reminds me a little like Scapeshift. Although, I guess the same could be said for any combo deck. Basically, I’ve seen plenty of Storm decks fizzle while attempting to combo off. As a Mono Red Burn player, I hope to cast an Eidolon of The Great Revel before they go crazy. However, if you’re not in my position, then hope to kill them before they kill you. Thanks to the ridiculousness in high variance for these decks, not many people choose to run them.
Well, that’s it for now. I really hope you enjoyed this “small” primer of what to expect this weekend at the GP. The Modern Format is such an open format, though. I remember someone mentioning to me that it all depends on what the flavor of the week is. Considering how many decks do well time and time again, that person may have a valid point. Remember to get plenty of sleep and, most importantly, try to have fun. I’ve missed these big events the past three years due to either illness or something else. I’m going to do my best to have as much fun as possible.
PS. Don’t forget to say hello if you see me this weekend. Let’s take some photos together!

This week in Magic: Playing with Fire
Thursday, June 26th, 2014
First there was Tom Ross taking down the SCG Invitational with his Boss Sligh deck. Then this past weekend, both the Standard and Legacy Opens by StarCityGames were taken down by Red decks. One was a Mono Red Aggro deck and the other was a Mono Red Burn deck. I guess it’s safe to say that Red is a thing now.
With that in mind, I’m going to talk about Mono Red Burn in Modern. Keep in mind, I want to stay one color because for consistency. If we start introducing another color, then we have to start thinking about Shock Lands and Fetches. I’m trying to Bolt you, not the other way around.
Before we delve into things, let’s take a look at what I’ve been running for a while now:
Main board:
20 Mountain
Side board:
3 Combust
Goal of the deck
What exactly are we trying to do with this deck? Well, it’s simple. Have you ever seen “Rocky Balboa,” you know, the last movie he did that came out in 2006? Well in that movie there is a great training montage (just like all the other movies before it). During that montage they address the fact that Rocky has gotten older and suffers from things like arthritis; the fact is that he’s just not his younger self anymore. So, his trainer comes up with a strategy to compensate for what he has lost.
“So what we’ll be calling on is good ol’ blunt, force trauma. Horse power. Heavy-duty, cast iron, pile driving punches that will have to hurt so much they’ll rattle his ancestors. Every time you hit him with a shot, it’s got to feel like he’s kissing the express train. Yeah. Let’s start building some hurting bombs.”
Cue the music.
This is one of the best lines in the movie. When I saw it, and heard that line, I wanted to work out right then and there. Unfortunately, the tub of popcorn and the soda I was drinking were in my way.
I’m not trying to say that Mono Red Burn is like an old man, but it does have its weaknesses. The key here is to explode. This theme is going to help what determines what spells we should and should not play.
Another way to look at things is to check out some solid reading called “The Philosophy of Fire,” by Mike Flores. Just do a quick search for it online. You can’t miss it.
The Burn
We want to apply maximum damage for as little as possible. Lightning Bolt is the best burn spell and is a great example to base everything off of. It deals three damage for one mana. It hardly gets better than that. The next best thing may be Shard Volley. This is another spell that can deal three damage for one mana, but it comes with a catch; you need to sacrifice a land as an additional cost. That means, whether it resolves or not, you’re still losing a land.
Lava Spike is a great contender as to “next best burn spell.” It’s another 3-for-1 spell, but we lose out in speed here. Still, as a sorcery, this is typically one of the best openers for this deck. Similarly, Rift Bolt does the same thing. There is a slight delay if, but rarely do you ever cast it for three mana.
Now we move onto the spells that cost more than one mana. Searing Blaze is an interesting card, but it definitely has value in it. It’s very conditional, and it doesn’t always hit for three damage. In fact, by itself, it does one damage for two mana. Plus, you need to have a creature in play on your opponent’s side. So why is this in the deck? When you do hit the landfall trigger, which is not that hard, the card becomes completely worth it. At instant speed, you can, potentially, hit your opponent for three damage and kill one of their creatures for two mana.
How do we perceive Searing Blaze, though? It’s a 2-for-1 for starters. What else though? We need to analyze the other spells fit into the two slot:
Arc Trail – Needs another player to target.
Boros Charm – It forces us to play another color. However, because it deals 4 damage, many people have felt that’s enough of a case to play the spell. Keep it in mind, it only deals damage to a player.
Incinerate – Three damage for two mana makes it a contender, but there are better spells for the slot.
Lash Out – Another possibility, but conditional upon the clash.
Lightning Helix – The ability to gain life and, essentially, cause a six point life swing is very nice. However, again, you need to introduce another color into the mix.
Lightning Strike – See Incinerate.
Magma Jet – In the other versions of the deck that was touched upon at the beginning of the article, Magma Jet has made the cut. The ability to scry two cards and manipulate the deck so you draw into burn is very convincing. We’re looking for more here. If I’m scrying in search of burn, I’ve already lost.
As you can see, there are options, but we’re Mono Red. Searing Blaze just beats out the competition by a hair. There is another spell in the two slot. That card is Skullcrack. This is very similar to Lightning Strike and Incinerate. However, there is an important part of the card that causes it to make the cut, and that’s the fact that it stops players from gaining life and damage cannot be prevented that turn.
Granted, some decks only play one, but Spinx’s Revelation is in Modern. There is also Kitchen Finks. Modern can be a fast format, and there is little room for mistakes. Any kind of life gain is such a set-back that its best to not take any chances. Did you know that Pod decks can gain infinite life? Yes, and I learned that the hard way over the weekend. Thank goodness I had a Skullcrack in hand to stop the shenanigans.
Finally, our last spot is for Flames of the Bloodhand. This is the most expensive burn spell in the deck, but it’s also our only spell that does four damage. It hits like an express train and stops life-gain and, once again, stops damage prevention.
That’s it for this week as I go well over my word count. Next week, we’ll pick things up and go over the creature package, the side board, and any changes I may want to make heading into Grand Prix Worcester.
