Title: Well, that went awful
Post by: theravenseye on December 10, 2014, 08:28:51 PM
Went 0-3 last night. It was awful. I got opened a {Jeering Instigator}, and 2 {Master of Pearls}. I had 18 land but always got screwed for mana. Don't play {R}{W} in Khans limited is my advice.

If you can get the mana base and a few of the banners in your colors three is the way to go. And some of the common morph cards are sleepers.

Banners really?  I want to be putting down morphs on T3.  I just run 18 land without banners and do fine.

Well do fine in paper magic.


Every once in a while if I do not get enough duals the I run a banner as card 41.

Yea it's nice to do that but with all the dual and tri lands that start tapped I haven't seen it too much. This expansion seems to be a slower format.

I always run the white blue red plus whatever one color looks good for the night prowess deck.  Run 5-6 banners, 3-4 duals, never have mana problems.  And I always go at least 2-1.

Every time, they pass me the prowess deck.  I don't know what's wrong with them.  One time I grabbed a {jeskai charm} pick 4...

5 banners is way too much. Sure they can draw cards, but that's still card slots being wasted that could be removal or creatures. 1 is fine, and 2 is wasting card slots.
