New BUG Walkers

[DylanW18]

I'm having trouble with Jeskai combo (only combo, others are good), and RDW. But I mess the .love. out of Abzan lol

[MuggyWuggy]

Strange, I find with jeskai combo, having negates and ashiok early are pretty much a game ender for combo

[DylanW18]

I just never draw them :/ if I do they always have a back up helix or something. Meh, maybe just bad luck

[MuggyWuggy]

Yeah people used to mowing thru don't now thru bug walkers.

Now lets see the mirror. I would say empty would be better over villanous just due to villanous is at sorcery speed and that's why I ultimately dropped it for {horizon chimera}. I find personally I enjoy playing the game of "do I have a counter?" And instants win all day over sorcery speed.

Lets hope people don't realize how awesome fated retribution is and how cheap 7 mana really is in current meta. The games are definitely Grindy matches I feel currently.

I had one guy on untap with that in his sb, devastating.

One time I was facing a Sultai ramp deck and they said In Garruk's wake and I said negate, they said ANOTHER in garruks wake... He had soooo much mana lol just an anecdote I wanted to share

[MuggyWuggy]

Seriously. I feel silly with how much mana I have towards a 40 minute game 1. Sometimes I think waiting for surprise 4x  {Mind Sculpt} would be hilarious. It would be hard not to spend em fast if you drew em early.

I think nissa is almost near my price range finally, but I say drop a wealth for more protection? Empty the pits seems like the better X spell of the two, maybe SB wealth for jeskai matchups. That's where a little wealth gods a long way - OH hai stoke/2x mantis and a charm!

[DylanW18]

Been up all night with untap. Loving the changes I've made, currently at 8 wins, and 2 losses, but have won all 4 2/3's.


Temur Midrange (midrange doesn't stand a chance lol)
Jeskai Tempo (got 3 coursers to stabilize)
RDW (won first game with a {empty the pits} for 7 zombies. Won the next with a starting hand with 2 {Drown in Sorrow}s )
Weird Dimir Aggro? (Wasn't a challenge. {Empty the Pits} for 5 both games)


So far, love it

[DylanW18]

Empty the pits forever. New favorite card lol also going into my Mimeoplasm EDH. Hoping to cast X = 30+ sometime lol

I'm having a serious issue with UW heroics :/

[MuggyWuggy]

Drown?

[DylanW18]

It never does the job. They always have boosted their creatures beyond drowns capabilities

[Mattao19]

{Ulcerate}?

[MuggyWuggy]

I usually pack extra despises with my thoughtseizes for rush decks.

The {heir of the wilds} is a decent choice or {hornets nest} since death touch happens. Most rush creatures don't have first strike, there is just the spot burn removal to consider

[MuggyWuggy]

I'm having a serious issue with UW heroics :/

So I experienced that tonight.

Aggro is definitely the worst matchup for BUG walkers

I'm gonna try heir of the wilds for SB tomorrow, I think the nest is really nice, but the difference of drop 2 and having mana up for counter t3 is huge. Whereas the nest requires t3 drop and basically allows them a free t4 which is dangerous in current format.

Horizon chimera still proving its worth, I dropped empty for another dig... Aggro needs an answer and I feel the SB almost becomes too late. Nullify was good, but still felt I was behind the whole time. Even if I got the play, the t1 drops need a decent answer. I think heir is it for right now, now much available at 2 mana or less.. Ulcerate on the sideboard isn't a terrible idea anymore. 1 dead creature for 3 life instant t1 seems pretty sexy as I couldn't do anything against a mono red Aggro deck

I'm thinking {Ruthless Ripper} over {Heir of the Wilds}. Less mana same effect plus the morph capability for the two life ping? Is the +1/+1 really worth the extra mana?
