No time to play yet, but this popped up on MTGO, and is somewhat similar:

I've been tinkering with an Rg version. Initial list that seems quite strong and resilient in my testing:
3 Grindstone
4 Arcum's Astrolabe
3 Painter's Servant
4 Goblin Welder
3 Goblin...
I've been on a Grixis list with Thopter Foundry + Sword of the Meek as an alternative win conditon, and I like that approach quite much. The trio of Transmute Artifact gives nice flexibility to find...
Sorry to read it didn't exactly work out for you this time. Still, I've be very curious to see the list you registered! :)
I played four rounds with my Grixis Painter list yesterday, and did satisfactory - matchups were UR Storm (2-0), RUG Delver (1-2), Grixis Control (2-0), Eldrazi Stompy (2-1). I've really come to...
Thanks for your input/remarks :) Maybe my list makes more sense with some commentary... Initially, I had the Sword/Foundry split the other way around, but found that I did not like or need it that...
I've been testing a Grixis Painter list rocking the Thopter/Sword combo myself for two tournaments, so far with suboptimal results - but I guess I figured out how to play (strategically) now, and...
Oh boy, I really got my ass handed to myself today 8) Unchanged list (minor revision of the sideboard, but none of it mattered terribly today - I did like Relic of Progenitus though, which I have...
So, any new war stories from anyone? I'm sick at home for the last two weeks, so naurally, did not play a single game in the meantime :/
I would appreciate more anecdotes/data on how Zahid, Djinn...
Zahid, Djinn of the Lamp is an interesting choice and seems hard to get rid of for anything that doesn't play white. I like it :) How did it treat you so far? Don't you think you should play more sol...
Vision Charm's potential applications are manifold, and the ways I've used it so far, in descending order of importance and power-level (in my experience):
Dreadnought combo
Protecting a...
Dreadnought/Vision Charm: yes, I do, and yes, it does :) Not very often (but that's probably due to the combo-win working so reliably), but I am completely convinced it's warranted, if only to guard...
Without changes to my list, I finished 2nd after four rounds with a 3-1 record, losing the finals versus D&T 1-2, after a string of _incredibly_ unlucky draws/Brainstorms/Ponders in both post-board...
Glad to hear that Misdirection didn't let you down all the way!
I've been at my LGS's weekly Legacy tournament today, and finished in second place with a 3-1 record, losing to Grixis Control...
@drude1: Sorry to read you had a bad experience running Misdirection - I've had a satisfying 4-0 last week at my LGS again (and the card performed admirably once again), and I still stand and swear...
Thanks for your feedback, drude1 :)
I definitely appreciate the value of Force of Will, which is why I keep the 4th copy in the board. There are a few matchups where misdirection will do...
Hi there - it's my first time posting in a Painter-related thread (I've been playing Imperial Painter/Strawberry Shortcake before the Sensei's Divining Top ban) and I'm not entirely sure if this...
