I should definitely learn to read magic cards :)

Are you aware that only the starting five mana doesn't empty and that mana from other sources does as normal?

Overall it wasn’t worth it, but this is why i played arbiter over lodestone: Blue spells you cast cost {1} less to cast.

Went 3-3 in the showcase. Overall deck felt great; lost to misplays on my end mostly. Got to learn to be more patient vs daze decks. I may post a...

Unfortunately, Fon costs 1UU, not UU. You cannot save the arbiter, because you need 2UU to pay for tabernacle and counter mana short, so you can...

Because it doesn't count itself the floor is closer to "upkeep, scry one". I'm down on it but I have seen people try in modern and pioneer.

Compared to the decks with actual removal, the fact I can untap into hard cast fon is relevant (since you need to mana short in response to...

Has anyone tried this post kroxa? dead guy ale and pox are good at being disruptive but lack a good finisher. Red death is aggressive but can’t...

I agree with your assessment of Bitterblossom. I somehow keep forgetting that Hymn to Tourach is a card...Veil of Summer has really warped how I view...

Yeah, I had you playing Lavinia first because I thought it was a draw either way and wouldn't matter. If Inkmoth can race the Lavinia line, then you...

The argument was the opposite: you make more cards in the SB live because you can board in slots for other matchups like Pithing Needle (on...

I definitely missed the manashort in response to tabernacle trigger before, well-designed! And if I play Eater first? T1, I play eater, keeping...

Yeah but you're presenting this as a false dilemma where the 2 choices are A) Try to colourscrew opp off white or B) Play postboard games vs control...

The solution to that is to just run Cling to Dust, rather than trying to out-escape Uro.

Ah, so what I'm saying is not that you should run Uro. It is that you know Uro is legal and you will be playing from behind - it not only reverses...

8-1 Saturday challenge for 3rd 10-1 Sunday showcase challenge for 3rd Report to come :)

Kroxa is a turn 2 disruptive spell though, plays a very different role than Uro. Uro works well in slow controllish decks. Kroxa shines in fast...

Felt like sharing my current list after playing around with it over the past couple months: 3 Bloodstained Mire 3 Polluted Delta 2 Marsh Flats...

On a semi-related note, discussing good cards against the blue control/midrange decks, brings me back around to a pet card: Bitterblossom. I always...

That is a good application of starting with five mana.

This is where I'm at the with T1 Vineyard T2 isochron scepter and use it version. 4 assassin's trophy 3 drown in the Loch 2 Dimir Charm 1...

Ballista or Armix, Filigree Thrasher could be a consideration. Usually though helm or bridge is the primary target if you have mana but are behind on...

Fox is quite an expert in UWx control so he's probably not wrong here in seeing how UW loses that matchup. Normally UW is heavily favored because...

DECKS FOR ROUND 7 OF SEASON 9: Deviant Legacy - Part 2 Sorry to give you so much difficulties to analyze my matches. Here the deck I submitted...

That is theorycrafting way too far up the ass, "colourscrew opp off white" is just not sensible. In an ideal world it might sound nice (just like...

The deck above is a deck we have been tinkering on for a little while and yesterday we recorded a video to showcase the deck. Please check it out...

Problem is that Uro costs 1 less to escape (b/c it draws cards), and completely reverses the Kroxa trigger.

Both Kroxa and Scourge of the Skyclaves feel as if they were created just to be paired with Bolt, Bob, Reanimate, Thoughtseize, Snuff Out/Dismember...
