I imagine MPLers are required to participate in mythic championships unless there's some extraneous circumstances and one of the MCs is Modern Horizons limited.
As a member savjz will probably play in MCs is what I'm saying.

It's probably playable but Feather cares a lot about 1CMC vs. 2.
The baseline for lands in my EDH decks at this point is 30, which usually means Im running as few as 3-4 basics. I've started upping the number as nonbasic hate has increased but what I end up doing is cutting duals for basics to do so.
Even my meme 59 lands Damia deck runs just 7 basic forests and 0 islands and swamps
LOOOOOOOOOTS of manarocks/dorks and cheap ramp. I don't play cultivate or kodama's reach anywhere just too inefficient at 3 mana or much of any 3 mana rocks for the same reason. Then have the commander create card advantage of some sort or be busted.
Also don't be afraid to mull aggressively. I've won a game on a mull to 4 before. Over the course of a long game 1 or 2 less starting cards matter progressively less.
Might actually grab a Morophon to throw into my Gishath deck, as I could see him fitting okay in there. Wonder if I should preorder it? I have no experience doing that...
Also, what are people thinking it'll see use for? Like, most of the tribes I can think of with decent support would more want their dedicated commander than him. My friend thought Allies would take him, but I'd more want General Tazri (and my Allies deck kinda sucked enough that I just gave up on it anyway.) Also pointed out the cute interaction that it makes Jodah's ability free and thus all cards in the tribe cost nothing... but I'm not sure anyone's actually running tribal Jodah, are they?

Are they basically all cEDH? I run 33-34 lands in everything and could probably cut a few more if I wanted to, but 30 would be pretty tough except maybe in my Selvala deck.
Don't preorder anything ever.
Honestly I don't think he's all that good. Would definitely work in a dino deck though since that's all about ramping big and as a dinosaur he's pretty okay.
no I only have 1.5cedh decks that I basically never play. One being ad nauseum zur and the other being a jhoira glass cannon deck that either wins t2 or t3 and if not folds to any interaction.
Got tons of decks closeish to cEDH however, I enjoy a high power level with very interactive decks and don't like playing 2 card combos, so most of my decks are either control or midrange.
If you're talking about a Commander deck, that doesn't work.
Oh crap, right, because he'd break the color rules for the same reason he can be a five color commander, right? Oh well, guess he's back to being of no use to me. :/
What commanders? Sometimes I think I could do 30 but I'm apprehensive. Do you have any lists? The power level of my stuff sounds similar to yours.
hey, lapsed magic player here. i'm pretty sure i know the answer to this (expecting that answer to be that i'm shit outta luck), but I'd love to play with some old school magic cards, like olllld school. Did they ever do any reprints of old decks or anything that you can pick up for a reasonable price to just have fun with?

You can get most old cards for pretty cheap. Now old good cards is often another story. Many of them are on the Reserved List, meaning they can't ever be reprinted (until Wizards sucks it up and finally gets rid of the list).
Most of my lists aren't 100% accurate anymore but these are all my active decks

They used to print collector's editions of successful old Standard decks. The cards aren't legal (gold-bordered), but, if you just want decks to play with, those are pretty cheap and convenient imo.
MH1 - Lightning Skelemental
Ball Blightning- Ball Lightning that makes them discard 2 if it hits them
The longer answer to your question is that if you are talking mid 90s old stuff here, you should probably install Shandalar, which was the old MTG game from the 90s. You can go on Youtube and see the work people have done to make it run on modern PCs
If you want to play with older cards without spending thousands you can look into the Pauper format. It's basically decks constructed from only commons throughout Magic's history. High-end decks run anywhere from $60-$120, and there's a wide variety to choose from. When you combine 25 years worth of commons together you can actually make some pretty strong decks.

MH1 - Force of Despair
Black Force card from Reddit:
Force of Despair
If it's not your turn, you may exile a black card from your hand rather than pay this spell's mana cost. Destroy all creatures, that entered the battlefield this turn.

Collected Company is often on your end step, so ironically this will often be used to take out a single hexproof creature and such.

Interestingly, this was made an uncommon from its original common printing.

Please tell me the English name of this card is Ball of Blightning.
MH1 - Horizon enemy lands
Probably the most significant new cards in the set for Modern- a cycle of off-color Horizon Canopy (they couldn't do the allied colors because they couldn't reprint Horizon Canopy as it's already legal in Modern). These will probably warp deck design to some degree- I could see Burn moving away from the Shock-Fetch base towards a base built around these, as they are great late-game draws. Does getting to play 8 islands that say "draw a card" make Merfolk a more real deck?

I figured say it now before they're $40 and up and maybe I can make it real? Lol
On the bright side, those lands are fantastic. They might be enough to drive up demand for the set to keep it in print. It also means Prismatic Vista will tank hard now that it's been completely outclassed in a way something like the rumored mono-fetches would not have.
I'll say the boros colored land will be the cheapest at 30+. Everything else will be 40+. Foil versions will start at 50+ and hit 100+ depending on the color pairing.
I actually think the Boros and Izzet ones might make Burn even better.

Weird, I thought this set wasn't going to be inspired by Planar Chaos. Why's Urza blue instead of green?!
Anyway, seems good.
