this is the last build i played i think:

it was pretty experimental but fun. as the W6 delver/control decks started rising lynx and...
I’ve tried this like a zillion times. Possible it’s better with Deafening Silence now but all the midrange goodstuff is frustrating. Lynx eating it to W6 is the worst. If you’re gonna do landfall...
This thread has been moving a lot faster than I expected but it’s basically as Fox said. Once you get Scroll in play you don’t need as many lands. We are mostly free/1-2 cmc besides It, and you also...
I’ve been tooling around with the mono U list, and I just have to say that Fathom Seer is insane. Still trying to figure out the Delver MU though, I tried red splash for magmatic sinkhole and Abrade...
Here is a new Rock shell I’ve been testing:
4 Elvish Reclaimer
2 Tarmogoyf
2 Plague Engineer
1 Hexdrinker
1 Tireless Tracker
1 Ramunap Excavator
1 Scavenging Ooze
1 Gaddock Teeg
i definitely was trying to figure out how to incorporate vengevine! I couldn't figure out how to get it into the GY but I guess intuition is fine. Aquamoeba is an elemental too.
love greenbelt as...
This deck aims to present a steady stream of threats using Risen Reef as an engine. Cards that pump out multiple elementals like Voice of Resurgence and Master of Waves can overwhelm a board state...
No containment priest combo? It’s pseudo-removal.

This seems really good in painter unless I'm missing something. Tutors both halves of the combo, enables the grindstone/painter swap trick just like Welder, can tutor silver bullets for certain MUs...
trouble with that is all their dudes turn into more dudes thanks to bridge. I think black force is basically sb reanimator hate but it still gets duressed. too bad they didn't think of something else...
This is probably the best printing DGA has had in years.
Canopy has always been a great card hamstrung by a few things:
-Lack of GW decks
-U+G/W decks having other draw engines available
-G...
I also went 3-2 in the Sunday mcq
Storm 2-0
Humans 2–1
UW blade 2–1
Applejacks 1-2
Lands 0-2
The mox diamond decks were brutal in getting lock pieces out early.
Cool idea. Seems like Leonin Arbiter could be fun here with the mana denial plan, so you can keep Maralen in play and just tutor for more stuff to vial in or depths combo while opponent loses 3 a...
I played this in a league, think I went 2-3 or 3-2. Fun but very inconsistent. However, here's an idea if you want it:
4 Stitcher's Supplier
4 Bloodghast
4 Prized Amalgam
4 Gravecrawler
4...
Faithless Looting is an excellent card already. Its major issue is that there is no card that effectively mimics its effect besides Careful Study, and if you're using draw 2, discard 2 as selection...
Jar is a busted card that probably doesn't need to be unbanned.
But Griselbrand is just as busted in every way and should be banned if Jar is the standard.
Someone played mountain->vise against me on turn 1 the other day. I forced it. Turned out they were playing UR stasis. I beat them in two games with Aetherworks Marvel. But yeah Vise had to languish...
BTW-gm 3 vs Humans on the play
Petal x2
Ponder
Brainstorm
Preordain
Mentor
Delta
Is everyone 100% slamming Mentor t1? What do you fetch with delta knowing they have Wasteland? I did island...
Esper at the weekly (in paper!)
esper midrange (no sfm) 0-2
Bant Delver 2-1
Eldrazi 2-1
Humans 2-1
So a nice night. My hands in the first round were horrendous though, no landers into...
Played Esper last night:
Czech Pile WW
Czech Pile WW
Lands LL
Grixis Delver LL
Depths WLL
Wasteland was a huge factor in those middle games, even with Petal.
N.B.: Wizards doesn't care about Legacy. But assuming they did in good faith...
It's time to switch the strategy for banning from "the enabler" to "the over the top and ridiculous payoff."...
I think this is correct, which is sort of how I ended up wondering if Phoenix was actually the weak link in this deck :/ Mentor into two spell off Petal is insane, and Petal makes Daze easier to...
tried the esper build (Straight lift from Jarvis's stream) and didn't do so hot. I think I went 2-3 and 1-3 drop. Storm is still a bye, def beat that in both leagues.
It's a much trickier deck...
I haven't played the esper build yet but with the grixis / 4 bolt build I board all 4 buried alives first in postboard matchups vs. combo decks.
Once the buried alives are out I bring in an entire...
