Monowhite lifegain I feel is pretty strong against it, also blue back control is still a thing, overall I am shocked to see my list so many different times with main deck changes but no mana base changes. Also green stompy wrecks it. People need to explore the other monocolored decks, because fixing sucks I have built prototypes that work pretty good but I like red a lot.

Plus, look on the bright side, your build was so good it took half the top 8. Yeah, I mean it's 54/60 the deck that was 3/4ths the top 8 from Neo's Magic Workstation tournament last August. RDW is a formula deck, designed by applying curve theory to an aggressive ruby shell. With a single set it isn't surprising that the deck converges on a single build due to lack of options at each curve slot. Throw in a last day ban to the most influential card in the game (inquisitor) and you are going to get a number of people net decking as they don't have time to test all configurations in that time.Plus, look on the bright side, your build was so good it took half the top 8.

Member Back to Top Post by govir on Not that I care too much, but I didn't really follow the actual deck lists of the previous tournaments. I built my Ruby deck after being stomped by a Ruby aggro deck in casual play, and then having success with it playing a few rounds. I have slowly made changes to it since playing it (including in this tournament). I actually started with a Ruby / Blood version of the deck at the beginning of this tournament (splash for Throat Cutter), but Kroannl showed me that those possible bumps of not having the right resource / having to play a Shard of Fate can really wreck an Aggro vs Aggro match up. I like the Ruby / Blood version better since it's more Orc based, and it's fast enough for most non-aggro decks. But based on what's in the Top 8, I'm glad I went with the Mono Ruby version.



Good luck to everyone tomorrow.

And it was the reason why I expected more mon-blood-controls rather than blood-sapphire - b-s version has it's matchup much worse against orcs. And this was where I went wrong - every one of us played from 2 to 5 matches against blood-saspphire =\ We have agressively tested against mono-ruby (as it was expected to be one of the "big decks"), and 6 of us met only 5 Ruby decks in total of 42 matchesAnd it was the reason why I expected more mon-blood-controls rather than blood-sapphire - b-s version has it's matchup much worse against orcs.

That being said, I liked some of your sideboard cards, like Dross. So you can bask in the glory that I was inspired by those choices.



Gonna be cheering for kroan this time Son, I've been playing this deck already in the first Tournament back in November.It's funny if someone claims "it's my deck" for a mono ruby deck that's more than obvious in the current metaThat being said, I liked some of your sideboard cards, like Dross. So you can bask in the glory that I was inspired by those choices.Thanks mate. Appreciate it!

Seriously though your claim is like saying that you're the father of the Sligh Deck.
