🚨 BIG ANNOUNCEMENT MURKTIDE PLAYERS🚨
I have teamed up with
@PiemontiAndrea
to create the ultimate Murktide patreon. Together we are creating articles, decklists and videos specializing in high level Murktide strategy. Check it out here! 🐲
Some Tishana’s Tidebinder tricks you might not think of:
Amulet of vigor - no longer an amulet 🪬
Urza’s saga - counter chapter 3 to deny search 📚
Cascade triggers - don’t let living end hit the stack! ☠️
Evoke - cheat Fury into play 🤥
P.S- it’s a wizard
made top 8 of the modern challenge with my take on a Grixis Murktide list 🐉🐸
I beat Nadu 2x in the swiss, and almost a 3rd time in row top 8 but they peeled a 2 outer
I am DONE playing UR Murktide, the deck is awful. I have been secretly working on a new midrange deck I am going to call Abzan. I think it has A LOT of potential
🚨If you want to win your next event🚨
I wrote a UR Murktide Guide (24 pages) + live updates
In just 3 months I have: NRG Top 4, NRG team 1st, and 308 player MTGO showcase 2nd place.
Details on the guide below. I'm charging $15, DM me to buy
I’m not going to sugar coat it: Murktide is a tricky deck to play, and mistakes are very punishing when it means One Ring or Living End resolving and the game becomes unwinnable. BUT if you look at the matchup spread (below) the deck is very well positioned right now.
2nd Place in the Showcase - Murktide players our time is now!!
Mirror in the finals but I lost the rematch. GGs I really liked my list for today.
decklist in alt text and matchups below :)
Sure, Grief can be annoying. But what if we unbanned Punishing fire, Uro and mystic sanctuary because they are cards that play well against discard. Then how scary would scam be?
Made top 8 of Manatraders Series this month with my own deck, No Bad Cards Grixis. Twin, why didn't you play Shadow? Simple, Shadow is a bad card + ratio
These past few months I studied the dark book of magic ⚫️⚫️⚫️: waiting for the right time to return the light.
WON the Legacy Showcase Qualifier with Jeskai wheels!
Top 8 🥉in Modern Challenge again! Murktide has all the tools to take on Scion decks with ease 🆓I wrote about how I built my list on Murkguides if you want to check that out🔥
I brought together a panel of 8 Murktide players preparing for the RC to discuss the 5 henchmen of modern -Rhinos, Yawgmoth, Amulet, Scam, and the mirror! Hopefully Elon doesn’t bury this tweet because it links to YouTube.
Officially a college graduate!! Cleaned out my room. All I’ve got left is this deck of magic cards. Onto Chicago to live with
@wheredmyjuulgo
and
@Will__Krueger
. Excited for this next chapter
Went 8-0 (scooping last round) in the Swiss before losing in the quarters but now I’m chilling poolside with my grandparents so who’s the real challenge winner?
Winner 🏆 Murktide still is great and if you’re tired of Grief you should just play the 8/8 dragons because they crush Scam.
@wheredmyjuulgo
and
@mtg_derrick
were great teammates
Top 4’d an SCG 5K. Would owe it to my personal one ofs but
@gabnassif
would just think I played better than everyone else instead. Only my Patreons get the scoop now 🤫
More magic players need to internalize this great quote from
@ReidDuke
. Practice to win, but when it’s time to compete, have fun and don’t expect anything.
MTGO grinders, what’s one way you avoid tilt on mtgo? I’ll start. I stopped dropping from events at x-2 and refocus on top 16 finish which has helped me not end events on a bad note.
I've appeared in the Finals of three Vintage challenges in 2021 including a showcase. All with Breach. Here is a FREE guide to win this weekend if you know nothing about vintage.
When twin was banned I owned 4 and was sad.
When KCI was banned I owned 4 and was sad.
When Mox Opal was banned I owned 4 and was sad.
When Uro was banned I owned 4 and ...
spliteo la final del modern challenge con ur murktide con lorien revealed, la lista la monte un poco a la ligera pero se sintio bien, solo tendira que retocar un poco la base mana
"I sac my Orc Army to cast Beseech the Mirror with Bargain, tutor and cast Sheoldred. Activate the One Ring, draw 3, gain 6."
"I tap The One Ring to draw 3, sac it to cast Beseech with Bargain, cast another Ring, get protection from everything, tap it to draw 1"
🤢🤢🤢
Hello my name is Twinlesstwin,
I try to avoid talking about this, but I lost my twin 7 years ago when it was ripped away from me by WotC. Today I have one ask, please WotC let me have my twin back 🙏
Oh yeah this Myconcynth Garden card seems REALLY good in Amulet! people should totally start playing that deck again.
I’d start by upgrading my list with -4 Cavern of Souls +4 Mycocynth Garden.
Really love MH3 - but I think this card was a miss. I would have made 1 of 2 changes
1. AETHER leak: 1U: give 3{e} so it’s mana leak with upside
1. Aether spike: U: give 1{e} so force spike with upside (probably too good)
What do you think?
It's wild that in the modern format somebody can be like "I'm going to draw for turn, 8 hits you lose and the rest of my deck is lands." I feel like decks this swingy should be confined to the meme decks and not remain tier 0 or 1 in every meta.
It’s wild that in the modern format somebody can be like “I’m going to flip a coin, heads I get a primeval titan, tails you get a primeval titan.” I feel like effects this swingy should be confined to the meme decks and not put on like a playable murktide card.
I feel cheated and robbed. I split the finals of my FNM last week (2-0-1) and now WotC tells me they’re retroactively giving all 3-0’s a PT invite. So mad right now 😡
If you are planning on playing Murktide at your RC. I have been uploading focused-testing matches playing Murktide vs the top decks in the modern meta. Check them out on our you1ube channel Murkguides :)
Top 8'd the Legacy Challenge then lost a rematch against a GW Depths gamer I crushed in swiss. Been working on this deck for a bit and it feels very smooth at this point. Timeless dragon is both a lot of fun and crushes delver.
Personally I don’t get all the One Ring hate? Like bro it’s just like every other playable 3+ mana card in Modern where if you don’t counter it you lose
B&R discourse: Any complaints about Scam's metagame share in Modern need to be pointed right back at The One Ring condensing all midrange end games, making Scam style "broken fair" the only viable normal way to engage with the format.
I had an in-depth chat with two members of team Handshake🤝
@KingofTraitors
and
@nalkpas
to chat about why they played Murktide at the PT and how they built their list. Check it out here!
4-0'd the modern prelim this morning with UR Murktide, was trying some stuff out like maindeck dress down (impressive) over some baubles, grudges in the side won me the match against hammer.
4c Yorion 2-1
4c Saheeli Omnath 2-0
Amulet 2-0
UW Hammer 2-1
I have a druid gossiping in one ear and a dimension-hopping companion whispering in the other. Which version of murktide do I play 🤔decisions decisions
