Hey, ROE is now out and I’ve recently gotten back into standard. Any idea how Valakut is doing? I’ve revamped my old Warp World Revolution deck into a Valakut one. How’s ROE changing the lists?

And I’ve continually been baffled by the Ruinblaster. Not impressed when they come out. Their in there against man lands is that correct? Anybody taking em out of maindeck?

Thanks.

I haven’t tried it since Vampires is pretty unpopular in my meta, but thanks for sharing. Those cards seem great against Vamps.

I’ve been testing Windstorm and Slingbow Trap in the side versus Vamps. Both are working well. Anyone else have any thoughts?

I think those are the best cards in the current metagame. I wouldn’t cut Siege-Gang Commander, but you can try Borderland Ranger and Grazing Gladehart in place of Ruinblaster and Bloodbraid.

do we have to put goblin ruinmasters,bloodraid elf, and siege-gang commander? is there any other options?

Ruinblaster does feel like the weakest link especially with Jund playing more lands and mana ramp. I’ve seen some decks playing Borderland Rangers instead. Rangers don’t ramp but they do provide so defense against Blightning. Plus, trading with Bloodbraid is a good thing.

The Eldrazi fatties seem too expensive imo.

I no longer play ‘em. =/ I figured we want stuff to do something the moment it hits play and Outcasts died way too fast, indeed.

I was thinking of running Avengers maindecked but I’m not sold on it (-4 RB, +3 Avenger +1 Burst). I guess that depends on your metagame. Ruinblaster is the card I usually side out the most and I’ve started debating its usefulness in the maindeck.

Has anybody tried Goblin Assaults? 2-3 could be nice against control I suppose. Control isn’t played much in my area so I don’t know.

Oh and what are your views on big Eldrazi fatties? I was thinking 1 Kozilek couldn’t hurt (probably in SB though).

K4m1k4z3, thanks for your input.

How many Dragonmaster Outcasts do you play?

Bolt is an interesting card. It’s great versus fast decks but there was a top eight Valakut deck at a 5k tournament pre-WWK that cut them so that every cascade card was mana ramp (except for Map, of course).

I thought Avenger of Zendikar would be great against Jund but in my experience Maelstrom Pulse takes away the advantage you can get from an army of plant creatures.
