[Reference] Worlds Legacy Decklists

[Bill Stark]

All of the Legacy decklists from the World Championships are slowly being added to the TCGplayer database. There's nearly 400 decklists so it may take through the weekend to get everything up, but I thought I'd mention it in case people wanted to see what was up so far.

those are some sweet news :) thank you for taking the time

[Goaswerfraiejen]

Thank you very much; that's bloody helpful. I'm overjoyed; I was really hoping for something like this.

(In case anyone misinterprets, I am not being sarcastic in any way.)

Thanks Bill!

Update: We're about halfway through the lists. Hopefully the rest will be up sometime Mondayish.

...in Soviet Russia, the deck plays you! (http://magic.tcgplayer.com/db/deck.asp?deck_id=229703) Nothing major, I just found that pretty funny.

That appears to be a suboptimal SI build including an ill-constructed manabase. I still don't understand why people are cutting IGG from that deck while running Infernal Tutor. Interesting to see people playing SI in any form though.

I don't know if I can follow you, I think the syenergy between Cabal Therapy and Ill-Gotten Gains is fairly poor. So loosing Ill-Gotten Gains in favor of Therapy seems like a possible conclusion. And I found Cabal Therapy one of the strongest cards in the list. I'm not saying it's the right conclusion though. But maybe we should move this discussion to the SI thread.

IGG is better in SI variants than any other deck because when you give your opponent back 3 cards, you leave Therapy in the yard and before playing other spells, flash it back to take the Force/Stifle/etc your opponent got back. This should be an obvious play to anyone who's played the deck.

Furthermore, IGG is there because it generates free wins when you happen to be able to generate 4 mana with an LED and an Infernal Tutor in hand. It provides free wins against discard where you loop into the kill with LEDs/Cabal Rits. It provides an extremely relevant discard threat against other combo decks and control. The card is really good in SI w/Tutors, and there is little reason to not run at least 1.
