Just to chime in on the Delver arguments. I don't think Delver would be hit at all with a Brainstorm banning. UR Delver in vintage is basically a Legacy deck with added Ancestrall and Timewalk....

Actually you would be surprised how well it works, it's all in the execution I suppose, as long as the opponents know that MBT is in your deck they can never know if you have four or one of them and...

Actually it doesn't matter how high the odds are of you having it in your hand since you don't care about that. The flashing thing is more of a poker bluff than anything letting the opponent know...

Just play 1 Mindbreak Trap flash it during shuffling or sideboarding and just play more of the other hate cards instead like Thalia, Chalice and Thorn. Now the storm combo has to be weary of the...

Maybe it's just me trolling the Goblin players in the past but I have won the last 5 - 6 matches on using Empty the Warrens against goblins. There is no way they can race a turn 1/2 (depends on play...

He he great tournament report and congrats to the first turn wins. Anyway it had me thinking of when I played Lich Combo in oddysey block. Confessor, Nefarious Lich and Zombie Infestation, it was...

Why would anyone playing an existing combo deck want to use this card? In DDFT it's at best a pass the turn pile, ANT and TES well se above quote, in Spiral tide... well it's still a pass the turn...

Add Doomsday and Meditate...

The thing is Ad Nauseam is the best card in that slot, the other cards that have been used are either Past In Flames or Empty the Warrens, everything else is just...

Was running it to and from for months in my meta up until Time Spiral was unbanned to fight two Solidarity and one Faerie player and it was always a beast against those decks and all other counter...

Although your still left with FoW on their hand, aren´t you?

Just a Quick question, how would the situation be different with a Silence in that situation? This is my assumption of your situation from the limited information you offered, you Duress and the...

What was that all about?

Anyway, on the Silence VS Chant debate, I was in a 100 man tournament in Denmark facing 7 out of 8 blue based decks, my only two losses where against Bant decks that had...

If i am not mistaken there should not be a huge difference between chant effects and discard effects. In your example the opponent have two counter spells, they just let the discard effect resolve...

Actually Emidln already wrote an excellent primer on the decision making process when he wrote about crafting a doomsday pile a while ago, as long as you get into that thinking process or similar you...

What are you going to do against FOW then? hope for chant or double tutor? doesen't seem too good to me. Especially when it is stuck in your hand with an infernal or you need to discard it to LED....

Yup that would be better :)

Well I agree that the forums might not be what they used to be but to be honest there is not much else to say about the deck, Dia bot was spot on, everything that needs...

I´d rather play Warrior's Oath in that case, it´s cheaper and give you another try at your cards. however neither of them is that good since fizzling with Ad Nauseam in that manner won´t come up that...

Is it just me or is the search button just awful? Every time I try to search a thread the search function searches the whole page, and when clicking on individual posts just brings me to the...

Actually that one mana makes all the difference in the world, here are some examples

Some Common plays

Land - > Ritual -> Ritual = 5 Mana

Land - > Land - > Threshold Cabal Ritual - > Ad...

Actually, being a Countertop player for the last 3 month I know that the right sideboardplan is to board out Natural Order for Spellpierce or whatever is in the board that is faster and better, if...

Here is an alternative to the Emrakul plan that I have been thinking to test for a loong time just because it might be crazy enough to surprize the opponent at least once, although it demands some...

Actually I have no problem in admitting when I am wrong (this is internet who cares?) and that my experience with Doomsday might be less than yours, or maybe I am just playing it wrong and stuck in...

The ways of winning on turn two without top is unlikley to happen, they are possible, but unlikley since the commitment of each one is to much. You cannot deny that it is easier and less comitting to...

Doomsday win on turn 2 is actually harder to play than Ad Nauseam win on turn two. You need Two sorts of colored mana B and U, and you need extra cards in hand or Top in play. To win with Doomsday on...

What? Was that a counter argument? Do you think the 6-7 Chant package is a secret tech of Doomsday combo? Regular ANT is playing the same package of disruption, why is this a counter argument? The...
