That's the problem with the deck: in both of these situations you would have already lost. My point was supposed to be that he seems win-more to me. By this I mean that for him to be good, you have...

Actually, there are at least two scenarios worse than him being a vanilla 4/4. 1) He's stuck in your hand because you never hit 4. 2) You're forced to discard your disruption to him instead of...
Basically QFT. My big problem with Deadguy has always been that it's a metagame deck that doesn't really win in the metagame it's designed to win in. Take Angel Stompy for instane. It was designed...
I love Tomb because my buddy drathro randomly threw one in literally five minutes before the first DLD started, and he went on to T8. I gather that Tomb won him one game, and should have won him...
What's in a name though, seriously? There's no "High Tide" or "Reset" in "Solidarity" but we play them anyway, no? And we don't play Rabid Wombat in Rabid Wombat.
For what it's worth, Pikula...
I know that Cabal Therapy has been tested with some success by a few in the Train Wreck board, and that deck has even less ability to flash it back then you do here. Personally in Deadguy I wouldn't...
The flip clause appears at the end of the ability, so whenever you use the ability, once it has resolved, it checks to see if your opponent has an empty hand. If he does, Shortfang flips. You will...
While I'm in favor of a Tomb of Urami main, I'd hesitate to put two in. An opening hand of two swamps, or a swamp and a Tomb is a keeper. Two Tombs is not :wink: I feel like the occasional benefit...
ObFreely: I wasn't suggesting that we put Pox in Deadguy as is so much as I was suggesting that we take all the creatures out, and then put Pox in. That necessitates some Nether Spirits and maybe a...
This, to me, suggests Pox. After you've cast a Sinkhole or a Hymn, Pox can finish your job for you. The nice thing about it is that it finishes either job for you. I know it's taking the deck in a...
In the interest of threats that also act as disruption, I'm a huge fan of Mesmeric Fiend, and adding him might allow the inclusion of Cabal Therapy. I'm not sure if I'm taking the deck in the wrong...
These days, probably yes. Wretch is showing up in a lot of maindecks. It's probably a moot point though, I don't think Pithing Needle is any reason not to run the Scroll.
I'll Pithing Needle Scroll if I've got Swords in hand and all non-basics in play with a stable enough manabase. My second Needle will almost always name Scroll as long as I've got extra Swords. ...
This wasn't always the case though (I think... I didn't play back with the old rules) so that's why you may be confused. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
Probably not entirely luck. They're right that it's not a bad matchup, I just don't know that with the current testing I'd say it's heavily in favor of Pikula. It depends on a few factors, not the...
I would most certainly not call the Gro matchup heavily in your favor. It seems to be fairly even to me. If there is a heavy Gro presence (which seems like it will be the norm for now) then 3...
Aegis of Honor is an interesting choice, as a lot of burn decks are not splashing (although many are going with the white splash, for both Disenchant and Lightning Helix). It's also nice that it...
I'm surprised that the matchup is that skewed after board. Can you tell us what you are boarding on both sides, and how the games were usually won? My board for Thresh has virtually nothing I would...
I don't know if that's true. I'm not disagreeing with you, I just actually don't know. Perish comes in against Thresh/Gro, Survival Advantage, and Elves (and probably more unplayed decks). ...
I agree with the Perish over Dystopia argument. The main difference is that Perish is instantaneous (albeit at sorcery speed, but you get what I mean) whereas Dystopia will take many turns. And in...
If I'm not mistaken, the Tainted Field was chosen over Caves of Koilos because it never causes life loss. The Shockland does not have this benefit, at least not if played within the first 3 or 4...
