@kai_nsane: Another element against dredge is Teeg. He shuts off DR and keeps them from comboing out on you. It forces them into the long game which you are favored in.

@sunnyveil: Congrats on a great finish!! You have also restored my faith in mav:) i love the list, it looks great. One question can the bop be cut and just run on 4 drs for manadorks? I agree sfm is...
I'm totally being the early adopter here and I went and bought 4 Skylasher on preorder. I think this guy could really have a home in Mav. Have I lost my shit or am i just ahead of the curve? Anyone...
Geist itself isn't enough justification. Its good vs uw control but suffers vs everything else. Gw/u though is totally fine and gives answers vs combo decks. Whether its better vs the meta than black...
It looks like the best Mav finishes are putting something into the x of GW/x. Punishing Mav or Junky Mav, both seem to be doing some of the same things in different ways. I like the Deathrite/AD...
Manila Legacy Cerberus Open Punishing Mav top 8 taking 7th, pretty straightforward list, dont call it a comeback:) Very promising, maybe miracles is weak enough now and p mav meets jund/ta/rug/junk...
I agree with you Matt that Mav can probably make it in the current meta. It's a great deck that I love and would hate to see die, so I am fully at risk of being blinded by a little romance over...
No need to be a cunt about it. The facts are facts. The archetype is in big trouble. I think it's just one of the downsides of not running blue, you end up with less inherent flexibility to change....
The decline continues: http://www.mtgtop8.com/format?f=LE. Now Goblins is a more successful tourney deck than Mav.
My reasoning with the elesh package is that it beats all the other aggro decks as well as elves, i didnt put it in for miracles mu specifically. The teeg, sylvan library, pw, and swords(all im really...
The Fauna Shaman might not be correct, I just like having a 7 CMC beater with all the AD running around. I don't like Jitte right now. It's a great card, but it doesn't seem to help any of our...
I've been tooling with this in an effort to keep Mav going. I feel like the meta is turning away from Mav, but there may be a list that can survive. I think if the recent SCG is any clue of where the...
Ok ok i'll be over in a minute:)
I think black is good right now, I think Thallia isn't as strong as she used to be. Mav placed well with Punishing Fire, placed well with Thalia, there are lots of flex spots in the list. As for Mav...

It doesn't bode well for Mav, it looks like...
That is a very different perspective on Maverick. I like how it really abuses KotR. I can't convince myself to run it in Atlanta, but I can't discount it either. Good luck with that direction. I...
@Fade
I think Show and Tell combo decks are pretty well positioned right now. RUG decks aren't as prevalent as they once were, and it looks like Show and Tell decks are on the rise. The more...
@Koby.
I agree with your assessment there completely, but can we run angels grace in a diverse metagame? Hive mind has one great advantage in that it isn't played a lot, so we rarely devote our sb...
Show and Tell based combo decks are a serious problem for us. I don't know that we can even the odds, but we can fight them. Game one though is probably a lost cause. I bring in three Ethersworn...
Great day with mav! I don't know about Gut Shot, maybe its that good. Our life total is one of our liabilities as is, so I am leery about it. I think we need something that kills Goblin Guide as...
I just played the GP Indy, not an amazing day, 5-4. Two of my losses were to U/R Delver decks. I felt really behind in those games. I even lost one with a resolved COP:Red, but my only mana was a...
