There's a bnr window later this month and I want to make a case for major changes to the Modern format. More than ever I'm seeing people disengage with Magic and I think this is in no small part due to how unfun current Modern (the premier comp format) is. 1/4

2-2 drop in the Vintage Qualifier w Mono White 4-2 in the challenge w/ UB Frog Lurrus Playing Vintage has been awesome, i’m glad it’s finally clicked for me. Jewel Shops reads to me as the best deck but idk how to pilot/sb with it yet.

5-0 with UB Lurrus w/time vault combo Would probably change some cards, not sure some of the value stuff like gifts/yawg’s will are necessary. Nihil spellbomb seems superior to Soul Guide Vintage has been so much fun. My love for magic is rekindled, Modern is dead to me.

5-0 with UB Lurrus! Been playing a ton of Vintage recently and it’s been a blast I decided i’m not going to LA and have felt at peace w putting Modern down This deck has taught me that Vintage is actually a p slow format. FoW is so important as the cards get more powerful

Looking at the data from Balt and ppl’s Ponza lists for the Eldrazi Match-Ups… I believe I have the best plan. The Eldrazi decks are the main concern for playing Ponza imo, my plan doesn’t solve the MU but it definitely improves it, making it winnable Check my guide 4 details

I landed on Jeskai Energy for Baltimore. I think it’s a solid choice based on how the meta is moving. I think the blue cards are really strong and help address some of the problems energy has had post-phlage. See you tomorrow gamers! 🫡

Kirk’s death becoming this giant meme of him being clowned on is genuinely hilarious and peak. However it would be cool to transform some of that energy into constructive revolutionary critiques and alternatives

5-0 with Ponza! Locking it in for Dallas, this is the first time I’ve felt confident in Modern in a while. Can you guess what the Totems are for? (Not Druid!) As of right now this is my frontrunner for the Baltimore too and I’ll try to put out a guide after the weekend 1/2

comrade1312mtg.bsky.social @comrade1312mtg.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

I played Ponza in both of the Showcases this weekend and had a blast! 3-4 drop in Modern and 5-3 in Pioneer. Deck’s much better in Pioneer, format inexperience cost me and the list is still a work in progress. I like my Modern list, but I need a better plan for kcommand decks

comrade1312mtg.bsky.social @comrade1312mtg.bsky.social · 26/08/2026

Alright time to vent. I’ve decided that after this season I will no longer compete during Modern seasons. I look to pick up another tcg or move on w my life. This description of Neoform from the most recent bnr could be a description of the Modern format as a whole

Top 8 of the Legacy Showcase with AlurenTell! I’m glad to have made it back for the showcase this season, I was a little lost in the format for a while after the oops ban 🏄🏾‍♂️

Top 4 of the Legacy Challenge with AlurenTell (my first time playing the deck) Sadly I think my Oops era is over, Lively Dirge is just so bad 😢 This deck is strong and suits some of my combo needs at least 👍

Trophy number 4 with Cosmogoyf I’m so glad Oops All Spells got reincarnated in Modern, I was in mourning..

comrade1312mtg.bsky.social @comrade1312mtg.bsky.social · 31/07/2026

Trophy #3 with Cosmogoyf List feels perfect. I wish Dallas was open decklist so I could surely just play this :/

comrade1312mtg.bsky.social @comrade1312mtg.bsky.social · 25/07/2026

5-0ed with Cosmogoyf during some late night insomnia I’ve been tuning the list and I feel v happy with this 75

5-0 with UW Energy in Legacy The car decks aren’t figured out yet, and i’m not gonna learn Doomsday. I’ve been working on this shell for awhile, deck’s nice

The last of my Rengoku tokens for Storm have arrived If you haven’t seen Demon Slayer yet you’re fucking up. It’s the dbz/yuyu hakusho of this generation, a goated action anime. The most recent movie gives me goosebumps it’s so good

comrade1312mtg.bsky.social @comrade1312mtg.bsky.social · 13/07/2026

I will say that a cool thing about UB is that it has motivated me to familiarize myself with the IP of an upcoming set. I’ve never read the Hobbit so now here I am. I had also never seen Avatar or much Tmnt content. Exploring these things has honestly been pretty fun.

comrade1312mtg.bsky.social @comrade1312mtg.bsky.social · 12/07/2026

Won an rcq with Cosmogoyf Fling This deck is by far my favorite thing to do in Modern and it has way more complexity and play to it than most ppl give it credit for Magic is such a beautiful game cause deranged decks like this can exist :) See ya and LA and Balt! ✨

comrade1312mtg.bsky.social @comrade1312mtg.bsky.social · 10/07/2026

4-3 in today’s challenge w Cosmogoyf I have 2 builds of this deck and this is my other one. I’m worried about the uptick in UB mid decks which are a rly bad MU, i don’t think this is the answer tho C.Annex is nice to have cleaner swaps against decks where pact is bad

comrade1312mtg.bsky.social @comrade1312mtg.bsky.social · 08/07/2026

5-2 in the Modern Challenge with Rainbow Goyf Fling for 17th 😭 I’ve been grinding this archetype for hours this past week and the more I play it the deeper and more complicated I find the deck to be Thanks to @yuyan_mtg for the inspiration and deck guide! More thoughts below:

5-0 w UB Car on the first time playing with Car Idk what the best shell is, but it doesn’t seem to matter, Car is too good for legacy. Fantasticar Summer has arrived, poor legacy community -.-‘

Boros Ponza wages asymmetrical warfare onto the Modern format It’s a deck playing commons like Field of Ruin and Wildfire to defeat powerful foes like USS Kappas and Israeli Ocelot Units Ponza is an army of ants conquering the elephant.

Oops is back baby! Deck is definitely nerfed but still very strong. Turbo ran some leagues to farm qps, 1 5-0, 4 4-1s and a 1-2. Below are pics of some sweet games and salters unhappy we still exist xD

8-1 into 8-2 to not even make top 16 in today’s Modern Super 😭 These events are brutal, its more rds than day 1 of an RC and still only top 4 gets an RC invite. Please fix this! Boros LD is more than a meme, deck is great

5-0 into 5-2 to miss top 8 in today’s Modern Challenge with Jeskai Energy/Blink Manabase needs some adjustments, and so does the sb but overall I think the deck is very good

010

comrade1312mtg.bsky.social @comrade1312mtg.bsky.social · 18/05/2026

I’m very happy with today’s bnr Energy really needed to get nerfed, it’ll still be a great deck but won’t be the best default fair deck anymore and now requires actual deck-building thought and maneuverability. I would be looking to a Mardu space personally

In a format with no true aggro deck, I’ve resorted to playing Dragons 5-2 in today’s Standard challenge

comrade1312mtg.bsky.social @comrade1312mtg.bsky.social · 02/05/2026

5-3 in the mtgo limited rcq, my deck was good but build was so hard it affected my wr in the early rounds, took a brutal 3rd loss to a top deck from hell but so it goes Limited is so challenging and rewarding, best format by a mile (Pictured is initial build, sb, final build)

comrade1312mtg.bsky.social @comrade1312mtg.bsky.social · 22/04/2026

Split finals of tn’s sealed trial with a broken BW deck New limited formats are great, limited is the best format by far, I should rly play it more often
