| Webmaster |         RoE has been fully spoiled :) And it does not show any spoilers on the top toolbar while viewing personal stats against others.

|         Yes it has, but I can either spend the time to spoil it all here, or let it look half spoiled. I have chosen the half. Also (this is all tech stuff) the numbers are there when the page loads. But when the page does a post back... I.E. Serching for stats vs. others, it loads blank. I should try to find a fix for that shouldn't I!

|         Zack Strait: The official Midmagic tester. Also, Matt, what is your current opinion of Standard? Might be going to St. Louis next month, thinking of playing Mythic Conscription.

|         The testing is always appreciated! And as I haven't played any standard since roe has been out, I don't have a valid opinion.

|         Mythic Conscription         Vengevine Naya         Jund         Super Friends         U/W Control         U/W Tapout Control         Polymorph         Vampires                 These are the decks you will see the most. Out of those few, Jund, Mythic, U/W Control/Tapout, and Super Friends are the most popular. My advice is don't play a deck that the majority of players will be gunning after. Play something rogueish.

|         Also, Mythic Conscription is extremely hard to hate out. The only "strong" option against it is Collar + Sparkmage, and that still isn't always fast enough when they can lay down a turn 3 soverigns with Cobra ready to beats. It has a very good match against U/W Control, Superfriends, is 50/50 vs standard jund and has a great match against Floes Vengevine Jund.

|         You should play what you think will do well against the rest of the field, for example if you think 60% of the decks there will be Jund then play U/W Control or something else that wins most of the time against Jund. If you go in playing Jund yourself you may do ok but some people will be gunning against that deck I think. I think Ben when he says something rogueish just means a good deck but not something everyone is expecting, maybe some version of Vampires or some version of Naya with Vengevine maybe?

|         Yup. Something that people aren't expecting that is still very good.
