I'm not super popular here...
I think you're all right. Sure, maybe you missed out on deck of the week here - but making mtggoldfish.com got you some cred I hope.
I'm not shy about saying I'm new-ish to mtg, additionally I mostly go standard or limited, casual constructed and minor edh. I've only done one FMN with a modern deck (UR prowess, I guess; 1-2 against taking turns, affinity, with win against lantern in 2, ha). Can someone walk me through why a JTMS on t4 is overwhelmingly powerful? Never played with it or against it.
The +2 ability gets it out of bolt range - i get that part, but the ability itself seems lackluster aside from scouting things out game 1.
The 0
brainstorm is obvious card advatange, but doesn't progress towards ultimate or defending himself. The -1
unsummon i think is where it is, given how long it would take to ultimate. Or does blue offer enough defensive spells/effects (made available with the
brainstorm) to keep him beefy and growing towards ultimate?
Maybe the new thread (great idea, btw, Mnemosyne) will give fresh ideas on how to feature JTMS, I don't even know how it was used before to make this unbanning such a big deal.
Thanks to anyone willing to take the time to post; I'm hoping it's not a cut and dry easy thing I'm missing.
