Is Mother of Runes still decent? Playing a list with a lot of active distuption and a number of Mental Missteps It could lead to some decent opening plays (Mom, misstep the removal, Thoughtseise,...

With Nyxatide or whatever, I would certainly play 4 Hyppies. I predict that you won't want to see the former without the latter active.

The real question is why you're considering playing that...

That's just a biased opinion. Due to the fact that I'm not running Wasteland, I don't have any need for more than 18 lands since I'm not burning them off, and trying to say that that my manabase (you...

It's slow, but it has enough relevant actions to take in the late game alongside enough relevant things to do in order to stall that it's speed doesn't matter. It's more threat-heavy and every play...

That's kind missing the point. In a build with more creatures like the one suggested, Ajani is better because it lets you swing harder while maintaining a strong defensive line, and gives you...

Well, I don't really think that resource-denial is the best direction either, and I really dislike a Staxxx approach with Smokestacks. I've really liked the list I was playing (before I dropped it),...

On Ajani: It doesn't require active beaters to be effective in certain matches, although it certainly is nice to have blockers for it in the agro match-up. Personally I've never been unsatisfied with...

Deadguy Ale and Pikula are, to my knowledge, the same thing, and some decks are, in fact, doing experiments with Tombstalker, but the reason it hasn't gained more momentum is because of the negative...

About the Extirpates in the main: I would only run them in the main if you think that you're going to have considerable problems against control and you want to have stronger games against them....

Sidenote: Deadguy ale isn't a tempo deck, it's a resource denial deck and a board control deck. Calling it tempo is incorrect, so saying that SDT is bad for tempo is irrelevant because the deck isn't...

That's explicitly a matter of opinion.

I've always been happy to see Ajani when I've run it. Making Confidants and Mothers into actual threats is always nice. Personally, from that list I'd consider something like this:

-1 Avenger, +1...

A) Maybe it's the 'unique' LD route that's making DeagGuy less viable in the current metagame? :rooleyes:

B) You could always run both, I presume. I don't see a problem with taking the deck into a...

Well, it somewhat begs the question: Why not play Bitterblossom?

@ Aboroth: Looks like an old Bunnies build. That, or something like the Bunnies/DeadGuy Ale hybrid that Citrius God was working on a while back (like, MD'd Plauged and worrying about thresold's...

This. I'd love to play Angel, but she's a bit on the slow side.

That simply depends on what you feel is core to the deck. With 4x StP and 4x Vindicate I've never felt the need for Smother (on top of, in carnifex's list, 3x Edict in the side). Of course, I'm sure...

Right, right, and I like having MoR in addition to the two.

A board full of 'Goyf isn't as bad as it would be without MoRs. It's just a really strong white creature that has synergy with the more creature-oriented lists. Personally I don't play BW...

If you're running 15 Creatures, why not play MoR?
