    Re: [Primer/Deck] Stax

    I think the problem you are having here is Sphere of Resistance. I have found in my previous Stax decks that while this card is often great, it can also be a severe liability. A single wasteland from...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] Stax

    Gaining 1 more life per turn is not something this deck is after.
    Cutting tutor effects for this kind of terrible conditional card is not something you want to do.
    The main plan is to lock out the...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] Stax

    I think there is definitely something worth working on in that list or around those cards. A way to beat Delver of Secrets is the most pressing need. As we can't use Ensnaring Bridge I think some...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] Stax

    Finally found the time to finish another article. Its about Stax and Eldrazi. It might give some of the Stax lovers an idea or two!
    I hope you like it.

    Re: [Primer/Deck] Stax

    Played a small 4 round event last night. Went 2-2. Lost to Painter 2-1 and Rug delver 2-1, beat Shardless and Storm. Painter loss was because I played very very badly by not casting Crucible and...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] Stax

    I imagine its for Deathrite Shaman and an extension of his mana denial plan against Shardless. Baleful Strix is a triggered ability rather than activated, which is what Cursed Totem stops.

    Re: [Primer/Deck] Stax

    I will be honest. I haven't put much work into this deck since DTT was banned. The banning of DTT has made decks running the full 4 Ponder 4 Probe 4 Brainstorm and Young Pyromancer less effective and...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] Stax

    Do you need to hate them out because you are loosing to them or just because there are lots ? Their Chalice plan is redundant against you because you are both ignoring one drops but Abrupt decay in...

    I love the card. It stops them untapping and with my Tabernacle I might be able to wrath a problematic board.

    However it stops me untapping and...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] Stax

    After the nice PM you sent me I've had a good think about Stax. I honestly think that this deck is at its best running a Mox Diamond and Tabernacle package. Unfortunately it is a very very expensive...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] Stax

    This deck wants Chalice on 1 never 2 because ratchet bomb and sphere cost 2. With Chalice on 1 Trinisphere does exactly the same vs cmc2 that Sphere does. Sphere then becomes better at cmc 3+
