Hi! I’m Spencer, living in the SF Bay area, where I kept getting my rear kicked by Cyrus and Cliffy ever since the SDT ban.

GP SHIZUOKA Day One undefeated Miracles

Without a deck list, reading this without context is a waste of time.
Sure, one can dig around the Internet to retrieve the list, omitting it here just doesn't make sense.
The Source is Changing, not Dying.
The endless emoji-like intuitive back and forth has moved to discord, which is more suited for immediate conversation.
The Source has now become long...
So~ Pro Tour 25 was the first major event involving Legacy post banning on 2018. After that, we have GP Richmond and SCG Baltimore. There're numerous smaller events in-between and after. Sometimes...
I can see why U/B Show and Tell would SB Familiar in as it would reduce Thalia tax, block-regen when no mom, and speculate that DnT would cut creature removal. If you want to go to the combo route,...
The key here is still the package, or a list around the Familiar. The sample deck is just for reference, for the sake of thought experiment. Hence, please don't get too caught up on a particular deck...
Nightscape Familiar
Blue spells and red spells you cast cost {1} less to cast.
{1}{B}: Regenerate Nightscape Familiar.
Converted mana cost: 2
What deck or archetype can this card be used in and...
For people who are already playing Legacy with their own favorite deck(s), the current state is probably great.
For people who are on the sideline looking in, the barrier to entry is at the...

AK and Purge.
First of all, I don't understand why one would splash black for thoughtseize and Aminatou. You gain so little and lose a lot more. That's not even the best Black cards I have in mind for control...
Not true. Pre-ban goblin isn't a viable option in Legacy. Now you can day 2 in a GP with Goblins.
Seattle 2018 had over 1,600 players; wondering if Labor day weekend was the reason, or did the banning turn off Legacy players?
The GP Top 8 Miracles don't run AK, but it feels that the trend has taken off.
AK builds:

What!? Red Blast effect and Blood Moon are much more powerful and versatile than Contamination and Bitterblossom.
I feel you guys have confused yourself with Esper Mentor and Esper Stoneblade....
Don't be quick to dismiss new card choices. Snapcasters often are overloaded for StP flashback duties. Having TT in the graveyard allows you to create a draw trigger without other cards' help. In my...
Think Twice might be a thing.

There was strong incentive to run PFire package as punishing Miracles for the following reasons:
1. Games got grindy thanks to all the pile decks.
2. PFire serves as extra method to get rid of DRS...
Deluge is Not a good card for Miracles against dnt, not even close. It would cost 4 under Thalia via sorcery speed, paying life for creature removal effect is borderline useless when you could have...
In a strange plot twist, someone is now dusting off the old toy previously due to DRS

Just want to point out the obvious synergy between Teferi, Hero of Dominaria and Back to Basics. Currently there're lists floating around focusing on Teferi and have cut Counterbalance completely.

Woot for Engineered Plague~~
Couple new trends in the brave new meta.
1. With the rise of Wasteland decks, Search for Azcanta doesn't seem great.
2. With the number of Mongoose on the rise as well as the rising popularity...
What are you writing about? Are we discussing the same format? Banning DRS means that RUG Delver, the one that runs Goyf, along with Stifle and Wasteland, they'll show up in higher numbers. You want...
