    Re: [DTB] ANT (Ad Nauseam Tendrils) Storm Combo

    You are aware that you can do it like your storm brothers in arms and just run a DP in the sideboard and leave the 4 IT in the main?

    Is there anything holding you from playing a MB EtW for the case of seeing the opponent dropping a Leovold?

    Against an unknown deck, I would probably keep that. Any topdecked land or Petal gets you going. From a statistical point, you can't go below 5 cards without essenially autolosing, because you are...

    Re: [DTB] ANT (Ad Nauseam Tendrils) Storm Combo

    Personally, it just drives me crazy to reduce the ways to quickly fill the yard (aka cutting cantrips) and see myself stranded with a DP either w/o spell mastery or without the 5 initial mana (both...

    Re: [DTB] ANT (Ad Nauseam Tendrils) Storm Combo

    This post is awkward, acting as if Hymn, DRS, Thalia, Prelate, Counterbalance, etc. do not exist and it does not matter when you (establish a) kill and how much mana you spend on the way

    Re: [DTB] ANT (Ad Nauseam Tendrils) Storm Combo

    I think something like the Prosak Maindeck with a 2016 manabase is still pretty viable. Maybe, with such a high number of cantrips, I would even play a second Island for double cantrip turn 2....

    I think it js, because the "certainty" comes at the price of DP (talking in the context of DL vs Preordain in hand) being pretty dead the first two turns of the game (unless your hand is nutz already...

    Re: [DTB] ANT (Ad Nauseam Tendrils) Storm Combo

    To net mana with a Tutor you need to grab a +3 manasource aka LED or CR and it isn't off to just cantrip into DR/CR/LED which nets you MORE mana than grabbing a CR with Dark Petition. With a cantrip...

    You can Infernal for Infernal for PIF and get around a DRS activation just with excessive mana and without the need to have two tutors. With Preordains building faster T.hold and creating more...

    Leovold is freaking stupid good in Shardless if paired with MBT. Usually they are light on counterspells so if you discard their FoW and are not shredded by Hymn+DRS beforehand, the match is in your...

    The variance in ANT is quite high in general, so I stopped being too greedy with AN if I don't have mana float and/or a landdrop to make post-AN and rather use the AN to refill the hand for the next...

    From a theoretical point of view, the 15-lands-standard should be enough to build a board against Thalia/Teeg/etc. so you should be able to cut the disfigue here, if thats your worry.

    Its a matter of diminishing returns at some point, just like the number of Tutors in the deck. Its not like you run 4 Dark Petition because "more is more".
