Stop competing standard

[Xaol]

Think I may stop competing in standard. Tired of changing my deck every 3 mths. I recently bought a legacy deck. I have been having a blast playing with. I don't know standard just feels like a sink hole and I don't have the time required to spend on studying the new cards every time they come out. Anyone else feeling the same way?

Totally agree, I'm in the process of doing the same thing. Currently I'm making cheap standard decks (Travis Woo's Dirty Cheap Dirty Red, anyone?) and making B/R zombies to win my way into legacy, through winning prizes at FNM. As soon as aggro gets stomped out of the meta I'll hopefully have garnered enough good stuff in trades to finish my No-Land Belcher deck.
Totally with ya, brothuh.

I made a deck almost exactly like yours you posted but got rid of a couple of cards and added done new one and your right u do win on turn 1 and 2 a lot

Awesome, can you post a Decklist in the legacy section? I'd love to see it.

[rant]You don't need to netdeck to succeed in Standard. I run Delver for Xhrist Sakes, and it does fine!!! I hate the misconception that the only way to win in standard is to put money in the toilet.[/rant]

Agreed. I came third at my lgs last week with my infinite defenders deck.
I was suprised! I don't build decks that are made to win, but rather to have fun. I also don't spend 100's of dollars on money cards, I mainly just use what I have, or get a cheaper equivalent of a dearer card.

Find what beats your meta. Build it. Win.

Also, with the welcome of playing modern at Fnm's will increase the card pool.
Of course this will allow you to also play with the same cards for longer.

Another thing, if money is an issue, mtg is probably not the best choice of card game to be playing. You know what I mean.

is it because cards are phased out by new ones, or simply they say "oh, cards from this set are no longer 'modern'"?

[Langku]

My issue with standard is how it limits my options. I think mtg is like a buffet. If I take my plate I'm not going to just hit the salad section because its the freshest food. I want the soup, pasta, steak, and dessert too. Give me modern or legacy and let me try a bit of everything.
