Trying to grind up to Platinum at least before the season deadline. Haven't played much this season. Not having a great time. Playing Donor Control, probably should say fuck it and just go Mono Red but don't have many wild cards to update to the Core 2020 version

I played Simic or RUG elementals basically the whole way to plat with a pretty high win rate (high enough that I did it by just doing dailies/weekly wins)
This is the deck I had the most success with
Code:
3 Cavalier of Thorns (M20) 167
4 Forest (M19) 280
4 Hydroid Krasis (RNA) 183
4 Leafkin Druid (M20) 178
4 Llanowar Elves (DAR) 168
4 Risen Reef (M20) 217
3 Omnath, Locus of the Roil (M20) 216
4 Nissa, Who Shakes the World (WAR) 169
4 Growth Spiral (RNA) 178
4 Flood of Tears (M20) 59
4 Breeding Pool (RNA) 246
4 Hinterland Harbor (DAR) 240
3 Rootbound Crag (XLN) 256
4 Stomping Ground (RNA) 259
4 Steam Vents (GRN) 257
3 Temple of Mystery (M20) 255
2 Ripjaw Raptor (XLN) 203
2 Shifting Ceratops (M20) 194
4 Aether Gust (M20) 42
2 Fry (M20) 140
3 Veil of Summer (M20) 198
2 Chandra, Awakened Inferno (M20) 127Flood of Tears is an amazing tempo play, or just lethal them, as it does not return Nissa Lands, so you can push a lot of damage with it.

Yeah too low on wild cards for a newer deck. Spent most of them on Vampires but have kind of soured on that deck. Maybe I should just switch back to that tho.

Just play several types of decks and go with what is working for the moment. Don't be afraid to stop playing a deck if your win rate drops with it. Each of the ranks has slightly different metas as well. Making changing your deck every once in a while mandatory. In fact that is what rank four is for. To get the feel for the new meta and make changes if needed.

yeah i mostly just meant as a last minute deck to get to platinum ASAP since the season ends in about 32 minutes here. been as high as Plat 1 in prior seasons (which isn't great i know, just not bad for how casual i am), just been slacking the last couple.

Somebody help me out with this... There have been several times where my creatures get pwnt and I have mana on the board with instant protections spells I can't cast.
See image:
I had a Tajic, Legon's Edge along w an angel on the board and one w/r mana. The opponent cast Shock and targeted Tajic after I declared attackers. I never got the option to cast my instant Sheltering Light protection spell.
Why?

Yeah Teferi 3 is a pretty dumb card. Narset too, the activated abilties are good/fine but the static effects can be game warping on their own.

Yeah, it is part of the massive bullshit they put in with those uncommon planeswalkers.

I know, I meant the push they made with more than 2 dozen new planeswalkers the bulk of which were at uncommon.

Sure, but aside from Narset the uncommon ones aren't even played in Standard. I actually thought that the limited format was pretty interesting and actually different due to all the walkers.

Ashiok sees a lot of play in standard in scapeshift and someone play outside standard too. Oh and Tibalt sees a fair amount off standard play.

I had forgotten about Ashiok, but him and tibalt are fairly fringe. Narset is sees more play than both of them combined by a whole lot.
