Title: M15!!! HELP!!!
Post by: Ptsgpbk on July 02, 2014, 10:34:20 AM
Going to pre release and cant decide what to choose, never done sealed so dont know what to do tactically.
Also been looking at the card list etc and dont know what is good and whats bad, love dragons but love gree/ white.
Is human/angel a good choice or black control/ punishment. also, nissa looks like a fabulous card and i want it so bad :D

well first of all, its hard to say without knowing all the cards in general. but my advice for sealed is to look past your rares. people get caught up and build a deck around rares instead of their meatiest color. i would organize by color so you can see which two or three color combination seems best.

6, a cycle of 5 uncommons and {Sliver Hivelord}, but that means that sliver tribal isn't a possibility for sealed/limited unless you do a two headed giant and have ridiculous pool.

{phytotitan} tho?!?!?

Phytotitan looks good but if you think about how he plays he's not very good. He dies to a 2 power dude and comes back in 2 turns and dies again
Title: Re: M15!!! HELP!!!
Post by: Ptsgpbk on July 02, 2014, 03:49:46 PM
No, if he dies durim your opponents turn he will come back on yours which ia awesome

honestly i dont see his toughness as much of a downside. green can either pump it, give it hexproof/indestructable, or worst case let it die and get a new beater in 1-2 turns

I know it not in rules but may as well say, if a creature is 2/1 and ets hit with a -1/-1 does it die?
Title: Re: M15!!! HELP!!!
Post by: gtfotis on July 02, 2014, 04:29:45 PM
I'm probably going black in case of urborg then pray I pull Garruk and splash green 😁
