D^T hasn't been great with list, used to be able to play a control game with TA with jace and infi sweepers, but I am a bit reluctant to go there on 18 lands. I have wondered if I should just have an...

hi guys

Ran a bunch of matches with the dark thresh list a few weeks ago to something like a 75+ % match win rate (before push). Was pretty intense. Almost made me wonder if we should have been...

Have a look back in the thread, there should be a guide with the old list along with philosophy in the matchups. That should let you deduce it. It hasnt really changed in nay of the matchups above

Hi guys

Grazi Grazi

The changes came about as a theorycrafted attempt to beat lands, while still providing a strong anti miracles package. I went 3-0 against lands on the weekend, so i guess it...

I havent played alot with the grixis list. I have heard that it has a better shardless matchup, which is roughly 50/50, but very swingy/random for us. Miracles is also slightly bad for them (50/50ish...

Nihil spellbomb is only a minor annoyance

Generally, the decks that play Rip or relic are white, and are best stopped by boarding in Jace TMS, which absolutely wrecks them. If you suspect that...

Hard to say

The deck is very much a 75 card deck though. Some matchups will play out very differently without the toxic and jace, as that means you cannot take on the control role. One of the main...

Hi guys

Here are my sideboarding notes for the build against a couple of usual archetypes.

Shardless
-4 Hymn
- 3 Fow/Daze (Play/Draw)

+3 submerge
+2 Jace

The matchup is fine

Level 1: Deathrite advantage - FOW/Daze deathrite agressively
Level 2: Bomb advantage - They have gurmag angler, you have goyf/stalker/liliana

Their bolts give them some...

Yeah, you usually want to fetch Usea Usea, or Usea Bayou.

Spell pierce is exactly to be able to counter jace. I am not to bothered about other applications as we win combo anyways. I never board...

On Stifle:

I have tried hard to make stifle happen, but usually end up regretting it. Stifle generally conflicts with our mostly 2-drop deck, as we want to tap out every turn. If you think stifle...

5) I am not convinced it is right to board out daze and fow against eldrazi. Firstly because there are other things you may want to fow/daze (dismember on goyf, chalice in some spots, trinisphere),...

1) They should not have spell pierce after board in the matchup ( or indeed before board...)

2) you can chose to fow the deathrite, or the followup play, or the daze on your disfigure depending on...

Open concerns with the deck are currently Lands and Eldrazi, which were not majorly on my radar for seattle.

It would be nice to have some relevant sideboard for the lands matchup, but i am not...

Guys, we are an agressive deck that wins by being ahead on board, while we waste/daze/hymn our opponent into nothingness. If we are not ahead on board, most of that stuff becomes useless.

The fact...

And yeah, i am terrible with delver flips. I also very rarely prioritize it with brainstorms, ponders or sideboarding. I strongly dislike having to play delver, but i guess we cant have 8 deathrites...

Hi guys

A few notes beneath relative to your comments.

1) On Sower - Sower is a very narrow card for shardless bug, which seems to infest the american meta. Since Shardless seemed prevelant...

Hi guys,

Just placed 2nd in BOM Madrid with the same 75 i played in seattle. Higly reccomend you check it out. The list is a brutal killing machine and i feel favoured in most matchups

Sideboard is bad. Maindeck is suboptimal. Play my list instead

The tarmogoyfs are btw. amazing against grixis and rug. They singlehandedly turn those matchups around, by letting you put on some sustainable preassure, as compared to the delvers which tend to die...

4 Deathrite Shaman
3 True-Name Nemesis
4 Tarmogoyf
2 Snapcaster Mage

4 Force of Will
3 Daze
4 Brainstorm
4 Ponder
4 Dig Through Time

Not playing alot of magic at the moment, so no new developments.

Will be happy to provide advice on
-Build
-Matchups
-Sideboarding

Let me know if there is something specific you would like....

Cool. Can you explain the use of illness in the ranks in the board?

Goyf is much better against tempo then Tnn, simply because it is easier to cast. The tempo matchup for the tnn version is not that pretty. This ultimately is why i started cutting the delvers for...

As bad as being 4 c is for our manabase, us having deathrite shaman is worse for them. So i would say, not necessarily

What makes the matchup challenging is typically more that their creatures are...
