In addition to panic over pretty typical summer heat, the season has also become a time to dredge up tales of heat-related mass casualties like the “deadly summer of 2003” when the French had all taken off for their usual paid vacations, leaving the elderly in non-air-conditioned care homes vulnerable to an intense heat wave. I just sat in my air conditioned apartment, chillin’ like a villain - whose superpower is being impervious to air conditioning-related guilt trips. How can I make this fun thing work for Modern constructed? I'm thinking of focusing it on Worm Harvest as my closer, and a friend suggested Knight of the Reliquary, but I'm not too sure about that.PARIS - Fresh off the latest French riots, the country didn’t even have time to catch its breath before being bombarded with nanny state heat-wave alerts. I ended up trading the Bridge from Below (along with my Door of Destinies) because I play EDH and Doubling Season is worth it, but I might be able to get another, I've got tons of Mossdogs, and I've got Life from the Loams from Izzet vs Golgari, plus the cards my friend popped, like a Narcomeba. But pitching a card, then returning it to my hand to either discard something I want or force a discard at the cost of just a black was great. Retrace works a lot better than I'd originally thought. Mostly it was Oona, with her big fat body and her token buddies that won for me, but retracing Worm Harvest and Raven's Crime by just pitching Dakmor Salvage was awesome. Bridge from Below barely went off (and one of the times it did I ended up in the graveyard, I mixed up my triggers, so I ended up dredging, then taking the last suspend counter off to kill my opponent's creature, which would have been the other way around). I ended up going 2-2, which is pretty good for me. Also, Oona and Adakar Valkyrie, though the Valkyrie never saw play. I got Bridge from Bellow as my first pack rare in draft, and I wheeled it after slight consideration, then tried to live the dream and got Life from the Loam, three Mossdogs, two Moldervine Cloaks, Eternal Witness, Raven's Crime, Dakmor Salvage, and two Worm Harvests.
