Welcome in to a new episode of the Tryhard Academy Podcast. In this episode, Cole and Jeff swing open the doors to The Emerald City and pull open the curtain on the "Curiosity Control" archetype; known by some as the 4C Rashmi Control Archetype. Since C16, 4C Rashmi Control has been a well-performing archetype over the last few years, in cEDH pods worldwide. This deck blends reactive control elements, with Curiosity style enchantments, in order to draw a boatload of cards and bury your opponents in card advantage. To further their control gameplan, the archetype uses a few tried-and-true asymmetric, and symmetric, hate pieces that do not affect the deck directly. If you're a fan of playing Magic on other people's turns and controlling the tempo of the game's flow, then this deck might just be up your alley. ========================================================== Decklists: http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/4c-rashmi-curious-control/ The progenitor archetype, created by u/Sickrobot and Sigi of the Laboratory Maniacs. https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/the-emerald-city-4c-rashmi-control/ Jeff's personal version of this powerful archetype. https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/budget-4c-curious-control/ A budget variation (roughly $500 to $750 USD) on the classic 4C Rashmi Control concept; especially helpful if you're on a budget. ========================================================= DISCLAIMER: All audio and video media used in the production of this video is utilized with permission under the Creative Commons License.

In this episode (episode 7), our executive officer Cole gives us the rundown on Ruric Thar Stax, a one-stop shop of various Stax pieces and mass land destruction related goodness potent enough to make most Storm and Fast Combo players think twice about what they're doing at the table in the first place. In specific, Cole gives us the rundown on this deck archetype, to include its strengths and weaknesses, what makes this deck tick, how to pilot this deck, and how this deck accrues value over the course of any cEDH game.

So, yeah. We're doing English now. Hurray! To mark this new beginning of sorts, we are resetting our episode count and starting anew. And while we're not exactly pack fresh anymore when it comes to podcasting, this is definitely a new experience for us. Alright, let's talk Shop(s): This week, we are bringing you a whole bunch of Standard talk. Why was Mardu Vehicles so dominant at Pro Tour Aether Revolt, and why haven't we seen it all that much after the Pro Tour? We're also taking a close look at a deck that's been putting up very good results against the Vehicle Menace: UR Emerge.Listen here:If you cannot see the audio controls, your browser does not support the audio element Youtube: Soon!Links:Modern Masters 2017 & Amonkhet PackagingUR EmergePlayEDH Discord ServerLaboratory Maniacs on YouTubeMagic Taverne on FacebookMagic Taverne on TwitterMagic Taverne on YouTubeMagic Taverne FeedBurner Feed
