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

    I would rather vomit into my deckbox than cash in 1RU, seven cards from my graveyard, and a tutor to draw three.

    I would rather use BW to get a Strongarm Tactics to kill myself.

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

    I've always liked a second Tendrils against slow control decks. Why does Carsten dislike it?

    I'm into the three Tops. I've been running two (one main, one side) for a long time.

    I've been running Pyroclasm for a long time, and it always performs way beyond expectations.

    I haven't tried Deluge yet but it might be an upgraded version of Virtue's Ruin, which is still a...

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

    I still run an Iggy in the board, but it's definitely a flexible meta slot for me. I like being able to bring it in instead of PiF in some non-blue matches (what few there are), and I'm running two...

    Also, shoutout to all of you advocating Young Pyromancer in board. I got to cast Cabal Therapy four times on turn 2 this past weekend.

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

    I think a lot of people who run BW dedicate to many sideboard slots for it. There are so many awesome non-sorcery cards we can board in for various things, it becomes unnecessary to board weaker...

    Yep, but I can also kill off a Goblin token using a flashbacked Therapy to kill their bridges. Corner case, sure, but I like having it as an option.

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

    Hey, guys. I played ANT this past weekend in Milwaukee and thought I'd share my experience with all of you. Here's what I registered:

    1 Tendrils
    1 Past in Flames
    1 Sensei's Divining Top
    3...

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

    I think we just lose this one, but I'm still trying to figure it out myself. The usual tactics we use to fight against FoW/Daze decks don't work because they can just untap and kill us. It doesn't...

    After a certain point, we're just cantripping into cantrips that cantrip into more cantrips. After maxing out Brainstorm, Ponder, and Probe, I only have room for two Preordains. I can see the logic...

    Did you ever use bolt to facilitate a kill? There have been times when I was a 3 points or so away from a clean Tendrils kill, so by extension, there have been games when I was one Lightning Bolt...

    On the other side of the coin, sometimes I'll announce storm count when I have no intention of comboing them. Land, Petal, "Storm is one", cantrip, "Storm is 2", etc. Some people like to counter...

    I've run a single top in my last two tourneys and have loved it every time. It almost makes me miss the good old days of Top, Top, Helm of Awakening to Brain Freeze under a Gaddock Teeg. :cool:

    How does Burning Wish make Ad Naus worse? Sometimes you're just looking for a little fast mana, a tutor, and an LED. Burning Wish gives you a higher chance of finding the tutor, but also lessens...

    I've seen a couple of these, and a guy here on the source has gone so far as to alter new-bordered cards to look like old-bordered cards. His Tendrils deck is a work of art, but I can't...

    I think this puts you in the minority. Bayou and Badlands are both fine, depending on what you're trying to do and how. For me, I prefer both over Trop or Volc, as I want my lands to allow me to...

    Yeah, man, try it out if you're curious. I'm not saying I'll never run AN in the main again, just that I've never felt like it was an "I win" card in ANT. Watching BBD play storm on camera this...
