    Re: [DTB] Grixis Tempo

    I played Flusterstorm over Painful Truths but I would've boarded both of them (Painful Truths) in as Cabal Therapy and 141's combined with Painful Truths seems like a powerful strategy against that...

    Re: [DTB] Grixis Tempo

    I didn't play any Strix yesterday, otherwise I would. I usually drop to 8 creatures (delver, deathrite) when playing against decks without removal (combo). I saw others disagreed with this approach...

    Hey guys!
    Yesterday I played another 63-player tournament with Noah's list (and a HUGE hangover).

    2-0 UWR Stoneblade with Bolt

    Re: [DTB] Grixis Tempo

    Yes. With Gitaxian Probe they're awesome as you can see when Daze will lose value. Against Storm I think it's wrong to board them out regardless if they will lose value or not.

    Re: [DTB] Grixis Tempo

    That depends on the card and matchup. I like Angler more against the Combo decks so in that case I'll remove all Pyromancer first. With Daze and Force against Delver I tend to keep some of each in as...

    Thanks!
    I don’t like that discard is supposed to be good early game, but in the first turns you're still figuring out what you're up against. Those thoughts combines make Therapy kind of awkward...

    Re: [DTB] Grixis Tempo

    Hey all! Two weeks ago I decided on this deck after playing storm for 2 years and my meta being Eldrazi-infested.
    Last week I went with Noah Walkers' list swapping Painful Truths for Flusterstorms:...

    Re: [DTB] Grixis Tempo

    I would rather board out Deathrite Shaman than the fish. If they bring in Rest in Peace they negate their own Snapcaster Mages which I consider one of the better cards against us. The Angler is also...

    Re: [DTB] ANT (Ad Nauseam Tendrils) Storm Combo

    Why would you side in Massacre vs Miracles? (Don't be too afraid of Mentors or side Sulfur Elementals instead of your usual D&T hate)

    I play 2 Ad Nauseam against Miracles post-board. It's really...

    Play out your leds, run 1/2 Sensei’s Divining Top and don't crack fetches unless you really have to. Lands, leds and cantrips are pretty good against Pox and top is just a house against discard in...

    Pro's Spellbomb:
    - Mother of Runes is not a problem for the Spellbomb does colorless damage.
    - Spellbomb cycles
    - Spellbomb costs 1+R instead of 1R
    - Spellbomb beats hatebears out of a discard...

    Re: [DTB] ANT (Ad Nauseam Tendrils) Storm Combo

    Next to Miracles, people expect a lot of discard and deathrite shaman in the near future, and Ad Nauseam is awesome against that. DRS makes second PiF slightly worse.

    In my limited testing I had some problems against Deathrite Shaman and Daze/Spell Pierce with the Dark Petition. Postboard it's pretty risky against decks that pack graveyard hate. Also, you can use...

    Against Miracles and MUD. What comes out is a matter of preference and the list you're playing.

    My list is standard 55 + AN + 7th Discard + SDT + 2 preordain. Boarding:

    Miracles: -2 Preordain,...

    I think he mainly used it for the Miracles matchup. He took that idea from Sawatarix who got top8 with it the same day or the day before.

    I love the card as well, but you give your opponent a 7-card hand out of which Lightning Bolt is an instant loss or any counterspell can be harmful depending on your draw. I think PiF-route is better...

    Yes, that's what I meant. My bad.



    I think boarding in Flusterstorms against Elves or Dredge is diluding your deck unnecessarily. It's only situationally better than discard in the former and...
