Was thinking of running it as another finisher for the deck since it is fetchable off Cloud and Jeska hypothetically can triple the damage of whatever I stick it on. Thoughts?
Hello! The lists that I am specifically referring to are Kefka and Tivit, but in general Ive seen many lists dropping the bowman. My confusion stems from the fact that creature based decks and combos and general seem to be on the rise, not decline, and there are many targets for it throughout a game in general.
I can see the argument of it doesnt directly win or lose you the game, but trust me the second Drannith magistrate or some stupid stax piece shows its ugly face you are going to wish you didnt cut the removal on a stick lol

Did a quick look at the meta and it appears Enneaking and R.B would be the best choices for getting back into the game with my favorite creature type. The bad news is, both archtypes read incredibly complicated to me. (Never played with/against pendulums so no clue how they even work for enneaking)
​
The R.B deck seems slightly more straightforward but keeping track of when I can sacrifice my creatures and linking them to point at each other properly seems like it could be kind of difficult for a new player.
​
Thoughts or tips on either of these archtypes? Thanks in advance!
Does the timer and client problems lead people to play creature based strategies, namely aggressive stax decks, more often than not? Wanted to try out etali, but didnt think about the process of only getting one mana per food chain squee loop that I had to go through being agonizing to click through in client lol.
Super confused as several content creators have said stax decks hand the game to decks like Kinnan. As someone who played stax an extensive amount, I promise kinnan absolutely hates clarion conqueror and co. and have won many times against the deck on both Ellivere and Winota.
Where I get confused is with decks like Lumra existing, why not highlight that as the antithesis to stax? I legitimately cannot do a damn thing about your land combo on either stax deck while I effectively prevent the other decks from interacting, leading to an autowin for the lands-combo player. Anyone else with similar annecdotal experience?
Was on a bit of a hot streak in premier last couple of drafts and ended up at roughly 250 mythic. My question is would it be better to ensure points and play traditional now or keep grinding for top 10 or so? Thanks in advance for any input!
