Finally got some time to play a Legacy league on MTGO. TL;DR went 4-1. Report below.

How are y'all doing against the new Miracles hotness: Predict Miracles?
I can't tell if it's better, worse, or about the same as the traditional 4 Entreat the Angels + Jace lists. I feel like...
DnT is rough. I'd say we aren't favored. Try to save your Cabal Therapys for after they resolve a SFM, then just take whatever they fetch up. Prioritize killing their Jitte (either with Abrupt Decay...
Hey there -- I play a Grixis list with 2x AD main for the same reasons you're thinking of doing so: Chalice, Miracles, and Shardless decks run rampant in my meta.
Here's my current list.
...
I've talked to a lot of people regarding this matchup and I get paired across the 'table' from it a lot on MTGO. Cabal is an all star and Daze quickly becomes a dead card, even on the play; I...
Never followed up with this, thanks for your analysis, helps lots.
Bit late but here's a quick report from a weekly win-a-box I attended last weekend. I went 3-1 and got 2nd out of 11 players.
Decklist:
Instant (19)
2x Abrupt Decay
4x Brainstorm
4x Daze
4x...
Are you seriously advocating adding more Bobs to a deck that runs FoW AND zombie fish? lolwut.
As Jaytron said, if you don't have goyfs, you want to be playing grixis delver. The deck you are...

Ok so my report for the weekly grinder isn't nearly as exciting but I played against a really sweet brew in my second match so I figured I'd write it up.
Decklist:
Normal 54 + 2 Spell...
I am too. I would have in his situation. I honestly had never played or seen that card played before and it seemed pretty straight forward/intuitive enough with its templating.
Doing this so Jaytron will stop bugging me. This is the first of 2 reports, this being for a $1k at Channel Fireball on Sunday. I know I need to start taking better notes between rounds -- this is...
So I've managed to get paired against the same guy on Miracles for 3 weeks running at my local Tuesday legacy grinders and 2 out of 3 matches end in 0-2 while the third was 1-2. I know Miracles kinda...
What do y'all think about Crumble to Dust vs. DnT? Can take out Port or Karakas, depending on what other answers you have, and gets around them being able to Flickerwisp your Blood Moon to use...
JACO, reading your report and your response was super helpful. Thanks!
It's not an answer to Karakas. Fire // Ice is.
So after 3x grinders and a GPT this weekend (9th out of 24, missing out on top8 by 1 daze-was-the-last-card-in-his-hand) I've nailed my SB down pretty well.
Granted, it's meta-dependent, but...
Thanks, angelbaka!
Super helpful post.
Hi all,
I'm an Omnitell player transitioning to S&S after the ban and I've been playing a ton lately, both on Cockatrice and at my LGS's Tuesday Night Legacy. I've been toying with my sideboard...
I think there will actually be more GY hate now that people aren't trying to fuel their own DTTs.
So the obvious question now becomes: where to go from here?
Back to the Dream Halls/ETI days? Is there anything besides DTT that makes us want to keep our current shell?
I played a bit before...
I like the sideboard, but not a huge fan of the 2x Ancient Tombs and 2x Petals. You're sacrificing countermagic (Spell Pierce), FOW food (Spell Pierce), more cantrips in either Intuition or Impulse,...
I am running the older Enter the Infinite build, so countering the ETB was necessary at the time in order to resolve EtT. Because of this limitation, I'm going to be changing to a more streamlined...
I was able to trickbind a Flickerwisp's ETB trigger after resolving a Show and Tell -> Omni vs D&T in GP Vegas. Felt real good and won me the match. It's so good.
