Congrats on the finish, and looking forward to reading this – still plan to publish it Friday? Thanks in advance either way 🙂

I really enjoyed reading it because it’s super relateable for me as a competitive Brewer but also very informative to see another person’s solutions to types of problems and where they look for problems.

Seeing the failures and lessons and thoughts that lead to the right list is a type of article that I’d like to see more of.

I like them every time they show up

You absolute madman! I’ve been running CES for a couple of months and it’s been one of my most successful and fun runs in the history of Modern. Glad to see it’s still as good as ever post-unbannings!

Anything that is a 1 of is for testing. I’m likely to remove a gut shot before I play again. (Haven’t seen enough mana dorks for it to be worthwhile)

Oh yeah! Such is often the case with my brews. If you have an idea, my advice is to just throw a list together, no matter how imperfect, and get testing! The faults will reveal themselves quickly and you can make the changes you need to improve the deck. Brewing’s so fun because you get to experience WHY certain cards, strategies, combinations, etc. do or don’t work in Modern.

They do after Rabble eventually dies. A great way to kill it is to just turn it sideways. Opponents block or lose. Cascading Elf into Queller is good if you want to proact without overcommitting into sweepers, which is rare. So overall I’d say it’s bad, but passable.

Cascading elf into queller sounds weird. Like, is it good? I dont know… kinda? Maybe? If queller never dies its pretty bad but an unkillable evasive beater seems pretty in synch w the game plan. Just a weird interaction
