Why would you side in Massacre vs Miracles? (Don't be too afraid of Mentors or side Sulfur Elementals instead of your usual D&T hate)

I play 2 Ad Nauseam against Miracles post-board. It's really...

Play out your leds, run 1/2 Sensei’s Divining Top and don't crack fetches unless you really have to. Lands, leds and cantrips are pretty good against Pox and top is just a house against discard in...

Any of you slinging some spells at Grand Prix Brussels this weekend?

So he is frustrated because his opponents basicly kill him on turn 2? Guess how he makes hís opponents feel all the time by playing storm..

On a more serious note, Chalice on 1 or 0 is actually...

Top-8'ed the same ~100 player event yesterday as JamieW. Played 1 Ad Nauseam, 2 Preordain, 1 Sensei's Divining Top and 7th Discard.
Sideboard:
4 Abrupt Decay
3 Dread of Night
3 Xantid Swarm
2...

Pro's Spellbomb:
- Mother of Runes is not a problem for the Spellbomb does colorless damage.
- Spellbomb cycles
- Spellbomb costs 1+R instead of 1R
- Spellbomb beats hatebears out of a discard...

Jonathan played Sudden Shock in grinding station a couple of years ago. At the time he seemed very positive about the card. I think it's too narrow but if you're going to test it you can also try...

Next to Miracles, people expect a lot of discard and deathrite shaman in the near future, and Ad Nauseam is awesome against that. DRS makes second PiF slightly worse.

In my limited testing I had some problems against Deathrite Shaman and Daze/Spell Pierce with the Dark Petition. Postboard it's pretty risky against decks that pack graveyard hate. Also, you can use...

Against Miracles and MUD. What comes out is a matter of preference and the list you're playing.

My list is standard 55 + AN + 7th Discard + SDT + 2 preordain. Boarding:

Miracles: -2 Preordain,...

I think he mainly used it for the Miracles matchup. He took that idea from Sawatarix who got top8 with it the same day or the day before.

Yes, that's what I meant. My bad.



I think boarding in Flusterstorms against Elves or Dredge is diluding your deck unnecessarily. It's only situationally better than discard in the former and...

Try Extirpate or Slaughter Pact.

My friend Jesper and I were discussing Grim Tutor vs. Dark Petition and the conclusion was;
"Grim Tutor is a tutor and Dark Petition is for comboing out."

My list:

Non-FullHouse stock ANT (55 + 5 flex)
Lands: 4 Delta, 3 Rainforest, 1 Mire, 2 Sea, 1 Volcanic, 1 Tropical, 1 Bayou, 1 Island, 1 Swamp
Accelerants: 4 DR, 3 CR, 1 RoF, 4 LP, 4 LED...

What would be interesting is defining what the probability is you're against a deck containing Force of Will followed by some conditional T1 hands.

I just discussed two opening hands with a...

Too bad Kai lost. JamieW89 was also 6-0, but I don't know what he did in his last match.

EDIT: JamieW89 7-0

Grim Tutor is used as the 5th infernal tutor or as a way to get essential 1 or 2 offs postboard. In neither cases Intuition is better.

It is an option though (however I think it's redundant)

Bobs also just die to stuff. If they let Bob live for a turn or two you'll get two cards. If they let Swarm live for just a single turn, you have a pretty decent chance to just win the game right...

Ok. On the Miracles topic, it seems there are 4 ways to fight it post board.

1. +4 Abrupt Decay, +3 Xantid Swarm
The first is Carsten Kotters way, where you fight with decay overload against...

If you never play against MUD or Loam decks (or at least, you don't board in Abrupt Decay against them) you can get away with 1 green dual.

I feel like ANT is better against taxing counters and the best TES-build I can come up with is not that much faster than ANT. There is more PIF-hate in the meta right now. But with all the fast decks...

Haha! Not exactly, Reinier :tongue:

4x Polluted Delta
3x Misty Rainforest
1x Bloodstained Mire
2x Underground Sea
1x Volcanic Island
1x Tropical Island
1x Bayou
1x Island

Not exactly true. You can find all colours. The one blackbased fetch can only find one of the 2 added sources of a colour: Bloodstained Mire can't fetch the Tropical Island, and Verdant Catacombs...
