    Re: Grand Architect

    Took this to a local that barely fired. Went 2-1, lost in finals to the Abzan coco combo deck.

    Match 1 beat zoo in game 3 with 2 life left, this match could have gone either way but game 1...

    Re: Grand Architect

    I'm not a fan of Sharding Sphinx or Treasure Mage. There's a lot of strength from having all of your big win conditions able to be cast for 2 mana if need be, just to power a Thopter or take out a...

    Re: Grand Architect

    Agreed with that list, though I think that is why he ran 2 Throne of the God-Pharaoh. If he pukes out guys and then taps them all to copter or to make mana for Blinkmoth, he'll at least be draining...

    Re: Grand Architect

    This deck was on camera at GP Vegas. I think it's a much, much more streamlined Grand Architect than the direction this thread has gone in.

    Re: Grand Architect

    Have you tried Vedalken Shackles? Even with 1-2 Islands out it's a force to be reckoned with. While it doesn't give you the brute strength of a Superion, it doubles as removal against creature combos...

    Re: Grand Architect

    @ImfromNASA: How's cathedral membrane in general? I like the idea but a lot of decks don't even play creatures that it can block, or just don't really care about it. Out of the 3 tier1 decks of...

    Re: Grand Architect

    I still like 2+ trinket mage main. If you don't play the right package it probably isn't worth playing at all, and I really think you need 1 chalice while playing trinket mages. Chalice is not all or...

    Re: Grand Architect

    It sounds like Trinket Mage main might be a good idea for you. When I was playing this deck (Heartless version, no pili combo), treasure mage and trinket mage were my favorite cards. Trinket packages...

    Re: Grand Architect

    Alright I've given it my best.

    Myr Superion isn't playable without a major reworking. With multiples and a Heartless Summoning, it's deceptively good, but with only 8 ways to play it you can't...

    Re: Grand Architect

    In that case it'd be just as good to have a Swamp in that place, right? I never saw myself needing to cast 2 of the up to 8 black spells on the same turn.

    So my testing has made it clear to me...

    Re: Grand Architect

    I like your new list a lot more than the mono blue one I just tried out, and I'll buy it online to test it out if nothing is ludicrously overpriced.

    Just first thoughts though is you still should...

    Re: Grand Architect

    I just tried this out and I don't think the list is good enough yet. Pili-Pala and Blue Sun's Zenith are both pretty bad if you don't have "the combo" going with GA. I had games with PP out and BSZ...
