    Re: [Deck] GW/x Maverick

    The deck is greedy as hell, but he is sold on it. He played nearly the same list (different Side and no Depths) to a top8 in Strasbourg and he played Punishing Maverick to top8 GP Amsterdam as well,...

    He is ridicoulus against Blade if you can protect him, he is good against BUG and awesome against UW Miracles, where Thalia is kind of lackluster. I still like him in place of Thalia #4 because of...

    Re: [DTB] GW/x Maverick

    Peacekeeper is pretty unreliable against the newer elf lists with Mortarpod and Humilities, it doesn't hinder them at swarming the board until they find the solution.

    Re: [DTB] GW/x Maverick

    Jitte, Scryb Ranger, KotR and most noteably Mother of Runes alongside a nonblue mana base give them headaches. Just bait with the irrelevant stuff and resolve the real threats. Can't remember a game...

    Flavour of the month probably. It's still putting up good results, which are not always up on TC decks and the like.

    Seems completely reasonable, but not really necessary.

    Prox a deck with a slow clock or test the mirror. Sylvan Library with one of the gems in this deck. Every STP on a big creature equals in a free card. Jitte trnasforms into card drawing (if theres...

    Whenever they go for Show and Tell and you have the Flusterstorm they will need 2 Counters/Mana because you have 1 Storm + Flusterstorm. Misderection doesn't work as hardcounter as long as you have 1...

    The Gut Shot approach might be worth it. Saving STP for real threats and playing tempo like. Seems at least better than this :D

    I think Elspeth is superior in any way, if you want to toy around though try out Parallax Wave.

    Re: [DTB] GW/x Maverick

    We have a major rise on LED Dredge (as expected), NicFit and a little comeback of Hightide here in Germany. MUD is still under the radar, but is putting up results.

    I might say that Elves will be...

    It's better when you have a hatebear on board with the redblast in hand, anyways, each version of Mav has a pretty horrible Combomatchup ^^

    Because you have at least 4 more cards that do nothing in that particular matchup (e.g. Fire, the occasional Adn to 2 Life doesn't count). Red and GW both have a pretty bad Matchup against fast...

    Re: [DTB] GW/x Maverick

    I would never cut the Zeniths, even with Thalia it's too powerful to pass and most decks have to handle Thalia as soon as possible or they will probably die due to taxing, whereas we can keep...

    For me it has totally justified it's place because it won me several games just because of sheer speed. T1 Noble into T2 Ooze + Cradle has happened against Dredge ;)

    Another approach would be a Terrageddon-like deck, with Mox Diamonds, effectively jumping the 1 mana slot or MAYBE adding Veteran Explorer, but NicFit does this better.

    Parallax Wave is just bonkers when there's a lot of UW Stoneblade, as well as the mirrors.

    You can do some neat stuff with it in combination with Witness and Pridemage.

    Re: [DTB] GW/x Maverick

    Yep thats clear, the longer the game goes the more burn they'll get. Maybe hitting only one StP and always sitting on Canopy adds to this. I guess i'll play Finks in the Terravore slot as well.

    It's pretty safe to board out Swords to Plowshares against UW with Punishing.

    You get 3 or 4 REB which can fulfill the same role in that matchup while being able to Force through a Choke or kill...

    Garruk 3.0 is king against Nic Fit, as is Elspeth and Surgical Extraction, against bad players K-Grip works as well.
