I'm mainly bringing it in vs control decks, miracles and grixis. Any time where they care more about my turn than I do theirs.

I'm testing a defense grid in the side, which should do more or less the same thing as abolisher but is easier to cast and interacts well with welder. Not sure if it's good enough vs control but I...
I like the idea of Copter+LutS as a card advantage engine (will be testing later tonight), which leads me to a seemingly unrelated question: How worth it is Cannonist?
The main bonuses of the white...
Thoughts on using LutS alongside Copter? They seem like a good way to generate damage and card advantage, thereby digging through your deck to find combo pieces.
I'm going to be testing a version...
Went 3-1 good for 1st place at the LGS tonight running 3 moons and 1 cannonist. Beat UB and RB reanimator, UB death's shadow and lost to charbelcher. Weirdly enough I won despite blood moon being bad...
I'm in the exact same position. At the moment I'm using sacred foundry as a replacement plateau and a pair of crystal veins. They both feel pretty bad, but they do a passable imitation on critical...
Hey, what are you guys bringing in against miracles? It's big where I play and I'd like to shore up the match
How effective a lock has moon been, given the rise of back to basics in miracles? Has anyone noticed a change?
He does nombo a little with painter, but I think it's a small price to pay for having that versatile an answer to some not great matchups
Hey, I know this might not be the best place for budget questions, but given how pricey CofT has gotten, how much does it ultimately hurt to run Crystal Veins instead?
Has the tournament report been posted/published? Someone post a link if so?
It sounds like shortcake is having a lot of success with canonist. Thoughts on putting dampening sphere in the side? It shuts down Sol lands a bit, but then so does moon
Does anyone have a "standard list" for this deck now? There's been a lot of experimenting and overlap with RW, so what's the accepted baseline, and what's different between mono R and RW?
So I'll admit I'm still pretty new to this deck, but what are people's thoughts on Inventor's Fair? It's not great for a two color deck, but the incidental life gain might be nice vs. burn and the...
I've been running smugglers copter alongside a pile of welders and a pair of grim lavamancers. Copter is great for card filtering, and welder+lavamancer makes sure nothing gets wasted in long, grindy...
So, on the play g1 against an unknown opponent if you have a pyroblast in hand but also a 1 drop (goblin welder, grindstone, etc) do you lead off with the 1 drop or pass with counters up? What if you...
Couple scenario questions for people who've played this deck competitively:
1) If you have combo on board and enough mana to activate but no Pyroblast to back it up, do you fire it off, or wait...
If you're just splashing white for enlightened tutor, what kind of fixing is preferable? Is a plains, plateau, couple mesas and 4 petals good enough?
Is anyone still playing Magma Jet?
Also (sorry for double-posting) How do we deal with Chalice on 1 preboard?
Spellbomb seems good against DnT for killing around Mother of Runes, at least.
I'll agree grave hate seems more useful, though. Is there a consensus between using Tormod's crypt v Relic? I've seen...
Would you say it's worthwhile to run gravehate mb so combo is actually viable G1 vs. emrakul decks?
Mono Red. I'm trying out Gamble with extra welders and smuggler's copter to dig deeper into the deck.
Actually, does anyone have advice for the DNT matchup? I've been hearing it's bad, but not much more
Thoughts on Grim Lavamancer? Going off the GP Vegas results, that seems like a reasonable play against DNT and Delver
EDIT: Also better with copter as it crews and then copter throws fuel into the...
