on untapped it says over a 2 month period it has recorded: 570,000 standard games 81,000 explorer games 25,000 historic games 20,000 timeless games so why are the numbers for historic and timeless much lower?

I will stream 24+hrs of the Timeless meta Challenge split between Dec 6–8. I will play 1 deck, and 1 deck only, the one that no one else (seemingly) plays. Multiple 7 wins with UB control, let's go!

Had some fun trying out the Lotus combo deck in Explorer today.

Chrome Mox was added to mtga Timeless today and I don't think anything can stop the combo decks anymore.

My metagame share prediction for the upcoming Timeless event: 22.5% Energy, 12.5% Show & Tell, 17.5% Charbelcher, 17.5% (W)UB Frog, 10% WB(G) Balemurk, 20% Other.

This Tainted Pact deck is awesome. I think of it as the anti-combo combo deck of Timeless. It won me 13 matches in a row going from % to top 100 mythic, and so I recommend it for some fun in the upcoming Timeless meta challenge. mystmin.com/decks/timeless…

How about just restrict Mana drain, Dark ritual, and Chrome mox? and Timeless would become the best format!

Keep or No Keep?

It looks like an aggro or midrange deck but it's actually all about the Vanguard combo. Here's a Mystmin certified deck for whoever's playing the Alchemy Qualifier tomorrow.

We're getting a 5 color land - Starting Town, from the upcoming set for Historic. So now with it, Mana Confluence, and Desert Cenote (new addition from previous set), do you think this could open it up for new 4c, 5c decks to show up?

Uhh, so I started playing Historic and it's ok but I'm not a fan of the format. Control decks are unplayable vs Eldrazi, while most Combo decks are unplayable vs UW Tempo, and a deck to be good has to be able to pass the benchmark of beating t1 discard, t2 discard, t3 sorin.

Turn 2 Ancient Tomb into Show & Tell is really strong. S&T combo might be the best deck now since the tomb lets it keep up with Dark Ritual decks speed-wise. T1 fetch land beats strip mine and chrome mox beats t1 blood moon.

I won the TheGatheringGG Timeless event, going undefeated with my Necro deck ! - deck's pretty much the same as it was 5 months ago and still manages to beat all those pesky Strip mine / Ancient tomb decks.

If you are looking for competitive decks then check these out. I see the metagame to be primarily two deck types: 4x Strip Mine + a pile of 56 other cards, or, Combo based on either Dark Ritual or SnT (somehow both combos co-exist in Tier 1 since they have different weaknesses).

Wohoo! I made it! Good old UW control fought through a ton of mirror matches on day 1, and a full Izzet run on day 2.
