Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"There are two objectives playing this deck: we ramp 2-4-7 and we get as many ETBs as possible.\n\nFirst and for those unfamiliar with the 2-4-7 strategy, we plan the following opening turn actions:\n • Turn one: play land, great time to offload a tap land\n • Turn two: any untapped land, play "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Susan Foreman"}},{"insert":" \n • Turn three: any untapped land, play any of our 4-drop ramp pieces\n • Turn four: any untapped land brings us to seven mana, start playing bombs\nWith this opening mind, our ideal opening hand has:\n • Three lands, at least one green source, two untapped\n • One 4-drop ramp spell \n • One card advantage\n • One haymaker\n • One amplifier (creature copier, token doubler, trigger doubler)\nKeep any opening hand with the three lands and ramp spell. Always mulligan hands with zero, one, six, or seven lands. \n\nSecond and now that we have oodles of mana, we're after the grossest stack of enters triggers ever assembled. We're especially interested in creatures with \"whenever another creature enters\" effects because if we start making token copies, the copies see each other and the triggers multiply instead of adding.\nThe ideal combination is the following:\n • Creature with enters trigger, especially \"whenever another creature enters\"\n • Trigger doubler\n • Copy spell\n • Token doubler\nThe deck has enough threats to stay resilient in the face of substantial disruption aimed our way, and rest assured disruption is coming. Our opponents will sweat any ETB & amplifier combination, so it's best to lead on threats that don't have the \"whenever another creature enters\" trigger if possible. Remember, the goal is to cast a "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Rite of Replication"}},{"insert":" on our "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Terror of the Peaks"}},{"insert":" with trigger and token doublers out, or similar nonsense.\n\nSome notes on probability:\nOur deck needs a lot to go right to avoid non-games. If we need a green source by turn two, our second land to be untapped on turn two, our third land to be untapped on turn three, and a 4-drop ramp spell, it's worth a moment to talk about minimums for each component. Let's start with a goal of > 90% chance of all events occurring together, or (Prob cast Susan turn two)x(Prob cast big ramp turn three) > 90%.\n\nFirst, the green to cast Susan: Assuming 98 cards in deck, 30 lands that tap for green mana, and 8 cards seen by turn one, we've got a 95.3% chance of having a green-producing land by turn one so we even if it enters tapped, we're good for turn two. Actual probability will be slightly higher since an untapped green could be drawn on turn two to improve our odds.\n\nSecond, untapped lands on turns two and three are easier to calculate together. For any 2 successes from our 33 untapped lands in our 98 card deck after seeing 10 cards by turn three, we're up to 91.2%. We actually have 34 untapped lands without counting the 2 check lands and 3 tango lands, but assuming 33 for our calculation accounts for that green source from above. Bottom line, 91.2% is a touch lower than our actual chances.\n\nThird, we need our 4-drop ramp: We have 14 successes and only need 1 from our 98 cards deck and only after having seen 10 cards on turn three. That comes out to 80.3%.\n\nFor all three of these events (0.953)x(0.912)x(0.803) = 69.8%. With a free mulligan, 1-(1-0.698)^2 = 90.9%. That's with slightly conservative estimates for lands. Getting to 95% would require running 19 ramp spells and it's difficult to justify.\n"}]}
