@Gasp: he came in here wanting to start a guild feud. He got one.

@zipec: a much better answer to Bant Auras is Parasaline (sp) as it destroys all enchantments and provides lifegain.
yes. youre right. they are used in different types of decks. one wins, one doesnt. I didnt say Utvara was a bad CARD, I said it was bad for standard. and it is.
that ratchet bomb thats not in your decklist? build a better deck before you come to someone elses with criticism. and cool, you play that ratchet bomb turn 2, which slows you down even further. then you put a counter on it, waiting another turn, while he smashes you for damage, and plays another creature on T2. then you pop Bomb on your turn 3,killing off your Loyalist and his Scout, but hes still got an unblockable stalker on the board. and play a what? Frontline Medic? you lose to a stacked up stalker, because you wasted your turn 2 on a ratchet bomb.
the cards themselves do that job nicely. you think theres not a reason a Thundermaw Hellkite cost $40 when it came out, but Utvara Hellkite never broke $3? Versitility. Utvara is GREAT in EDH, but almost useless in standard. Bad Card for standard.
you havent invalidated any of my points. you said ANY boros or RG beats this TYPE of deck, and it doesnt. youre wrong. theres a reason your deck has a budget price: good players dont play with bad cards.
no removal doesnt mean it gets owned, it means its a race. it completely nullifies your removal, and makes you beat it in a flat out sprint. you win some, he wins some.
HIS deck needs work. it is, as it says, a prototype to keep the hexproof deck alive in standard after M14 drops. it needs counters, it needs removal. YOU said that ANY boros or R?G aggro owns THIS TYPE of deck, and youre wrong. flat out. Well built Bant Hexproof is the fastest deck in standard. I can deal lethal on turn 3.
OMG. you should go work on your own deck before criticizing other peoples. THIS deck that we are commenting on IS 100% for sure BANT.
oh, so you are just stirring up things so people check out your deck? how do you figure your boros deck beats a Bant Hexproof deck?Edit: that Boros deck doesnt look very strong. It looks like you threw leftover cards together. http://www.mtgvault.com/ninjastyle612/decks/boros-aggro-t2/this Boros deck took 5th in a 75 player PTQ. and would not beat my own Bant Hexproof deck.
lol....no.
standard until October, Actually
you run 4 geist. he is NEVER a dead draw. having one in your hand allows you to attack into ground blockers and get 4 damage across without worrying about him dying. he is also fairly easy to kill, despite being hexproof. If you run Geist, you run 4.
it comes out 2 turns later and doesnt have the extort trigger. not a fan
good. growing the game is important. if you have the cards,you might think about building an extra deck and invition some other people to play with you on FNM days, and encouraging others to do the same.
3 rounds? super sad bro....good job going 2-1 though.
The izzet vs golgari dual deck pack has an Iso scepter in it, as well as an array of great edh stuff like brainstorm, browbeat, eternal witness, life from the Loam, and of course, one of the best generals ever, Niv-Mizzet the firemind
changelings also trigger your commanders ability.
Azami is a better general than Ertai, as she lets you draw into things like counterspells that cost less than Ertai's ability does. I too, run a Wizard EDH. Bribery, Treachery, Desertion....= Lulz
That's what rift elemental is for :)
