Podcast: Standard Nonsense Part Six

bdm | November 6, 2009 | 6:36 pm

Mike and switched decks again…this time to the deck formerly known as Mono Cascade. Apparently Jon Becker was peeved (imagine that) that the deck was not actually “mono-anything” — color, cascade, what-have-you. Mike has taken to calling the deck BeckerDotDec in honor of our curmudgeonly friend. This was definitley my favorite deck that we played on the evening although it felt pretty cumbersome at times with all the do nothing turns and come-into-play tapped lands. Still it was a lot of fun to play and really highlighted for me just how powerful Blightning is against the Planeswalkers strategies we kept seeing on MTGO that evening.

I’m going to California States on 12/05/09, on the blog you mentioned that you would play Junk Mana Ramp.

Do you think BeckerDotDec would be competitive enough for a States tournament?

I’m seriously considering playing Violent Jund or White/Blue Control, but this weekend I’m considering other options.
