Legendary Creature - Podcast

Who needs to use their turn when the luxury of timing is on their side? Some may think of the classic spellslinger as annoyingly taking their turn on someone else's turn--check the last episode to explore why that doesn't need to be the case. In this episode, Andy gets into the reasons for delaying actions until the needful moment, how to keep that from becoming a pitfall, and how this stance can be leveraged in a variety of deck concepts.

We talked about the mana value composition of a spellslinger deck, now let's get into thinking about the deck's posture. Often times we can craft decks and we let the archetype and cards dictate whether we are aggressively playing cards or waiting for the right moment to strike. Andy explores how we can be more deliberate with the choice and gets into examples of how spellslinger can be constructed to aggressively play its cards, rather than waiting for specific moments.

Andy gave the overview of low mana value spellslinger last episode. Let's get into the high mana value. The distinction may be lost on some and obvious to others, but the capacity of low mana value and high mana value spellslinger decks is worth noting. Andy takes a dive into the tools, textures, and payoffs that can serve as the reason for sitting in the School of High Mana Value.

In classic LCP fashion, let's add nuance to the spellslinger archetype. With years of casting spells and an upcoming visit Strixhaven scheduled, Andy sets up the spellslinger series by delineating two schools of spellslinger decks: the low mana value and the high mana value. With the notion in mind of the two strategies functioning like their own schools of the archetype, Andy plumbs the theoretical depths of why low mana value spellslinger decks require their own unique approach and assessment of valuable tools.
