MonoBlue:

No cards to take advantage of having a lot of islands.

There is, there is... THe flying merfolk dude that when it comes into the battlefield you reveal 3 cards on the top of your library and put all islands revealed this way to your hand. I think...hehehhe

May nakalaban ako mono-blue. amf kasi nakadraft ng 2 Jwar Jwar Sphinx at Living Tsunami.

Mono-green archetype madalas siguro high pick ang Timbermaw Larva kasi nuts siya dun. Syempre high pick din Nissa's Chosen kasi pader siya. Okay rin yung Primal Bellow. Also since kulang ka sa removal kelangan mo rin ng Turntimber Basilisk.

Yeah... insane mono-blue is viable but drafts like that is rare and I think I think that such a deck will still do well if it has a secondary color with no hazardous effects. I think that what the author meant was that blue cards are not as color heavy like Gatekeeper of malakir, Crypt ripper, spire barrage, Molten Ravager, Kazandu Blademaster, Kor Aeronaut, Kor Outfitter, Nissa's chosen, and primal bellows.

Mono White Life Gain

If you have picked up an eternity vessel and Felidar Sovereign, consider giving this deck a try. The game plan is to gain life, drop eternity vessel and grind down your opponent with a couple of noble vestige. if you still don't have enough life, bring it back with Narrow Escape repeat. Landbind Ritual is awesome in this archetype.


I think the author forgot to specifically point out the interaction between eternity vessel and narrow escape. I think I lost to this type of deck once.

Ayos to! 2 Mythic Rare lang na hindi magkasama sa box print run ang kailangan mo. Napakadali buohin, hindi katulad ng insane mono blue na kailangan mo pa ng at least 1 bomb rare, 1 uncommon na malupit, at 21 good commons.

Good Job! Malay mo wala pa siyang nakalabang monoBlue pero monowhite meron na. therefore mas madali buoin yung monowhite kahit may 2 mythic craps na di magka-print run. hehe
