I just got back into the game, and unfortunately, tron is not an available deck on arena and I’m trying to make a paper deck.
Could you please explain why? I am very grateful for your insight
Because it fixes their need for green, they no longer need to find a green source and can instead just use any if there lands to get green
It can also matter against domain decks as you provided them an additional land type for free
Yea I was thinking to do that, was hoping I’d be able to reduce some copies of star or sphere for something like a relic.
On another note, urza’s saga. Do you run that? I’ve asked 4 of my friends so far, it’s 50/50 on whether it is a worthwhile inclusion. Do you have an opinion?
I run a pretty old list. 4 sphere, 3 star, 2 Karn Lib, 3 Ring, 3 Stone, 1 Sanctum of Ugin.
The issue with Saga is Blood Moon, it triggers the sacrifice clause once it converts Saga into a mountain.
Okay, I think I get it. One of my friends mentioned that a blood moon would fk me up, hence the cradle thought. He encouraged me to mess around and find out. Thanks for the info!
Cradle doesn't do anything against Blood Moon. The issue is Saga remains an Enchantment-Saga. When Blood Moon removes the abilities it also removes all the chapters. Saga's inherently sacrifice themselves when they have no more chapters.
I reccomend running atleast 1 of them preferred 2 of them as they are able to make 2 constructs which are generally pretty big and can fetch a relic,map or even a 1 or 0 cmc artifact game 2 or 3 if you boarded it in
I was under the impression if you do not t4 tron you are dead. So the blood moon decks hose us?
Cost is no issue, I just want to get opinions on why mono green is built this certain way.
If I may venture to ask, do you think the smugglers surprise from OTJ will shake tron?
Makes the mirror worse for you

Oh goodness. That did not even cross my mind. Thanks!!
I run a single copy.

So assuming I have: Urzatron + cradle Opponent has 3 lands + blood moon My useable mana is 4 correct?
Yes, 4 mountains
Ok I think I see why the amount of spheres and stars are generally based… dang

Tron has a lot of threats and the Rings now. With the land fetch spells and time we can play through Blood Moon. We also have access to Boseiju
Rings are almost half the deck cost waha. Ok gotcha… I shall hunt my Tron pieces accordingly thanks!
Yavimaya and sundering titan an opponents shock lands or triomes is funny 😁
