Depths/Stage can be amazing in Maverick, but Wasteland is the biggest impediment. It's worth running in a Wasteland-lite meta, but how often do you find that in Legacy?
Dark Depths needs to replace a spell, not a land, because you can't tap it for mana. Stage replaces a land, but it does have some utility without Depths. Stage can copy a Canopy, Maze, Wasteland,...
I have serious doubts as to whether or not Dark Depths improves Maverick, but it does sound fun to test anyway. Looking at your list, I think that you definitely need to run four Mom and KotR. ...
Dark Depths enters the battlefield with ten ice counters on it. Vesuva copies a land as it enters the battlefield, so if you chose to copy Dark Depths, your Vesuva will get ten ice counters. ...
Maverick emerged as a tier-one deck sometime in early 2011, so it had a good two-year run. The printing of Deathrite Shaman has really knocked it down a peg. If you like to play non-blue midrange,...
I'm still not sold on SFM and equipment against Miracle decks. Sure, equipment can be good against them, but where do you find the room to fit in your sideboard cards, while keeping your SFM package...
I'd like to talk a bit about the part of the article that recommends playing equipment in the maindeck to beat Miracles:
"Equipment – Any piece of equipment will allow you to provide major...
The Dryad really screws Runechanter's Pike in Standard.
In Legacy, it's an efficient 2/1 beater for 1 mana that has an ability with many uses, as noted above. I wonder how many Maverick will want...
I thought I'd shift gears a bit and talk about playing the deck, rather than what cards should fill out a particular list. One thing, in particular that I was thinking about is whether to play Noble...
OK, I see it now. It's kind of like Hive Mind, then, another three card combo (except Hive Mind is easier to hard cast). I guess it would just be a bad matchup, which Show and Tell Decks already...
Yeah, why would Show and Tell decks play a card that doesn't win the game for them immediately? They are fine with Griselbrand and Emrakul.
My initial reaction is that the new Angel will work better in Nic Fit decks than Maverick, because getting to six mana to GSZ it out is asking a lot. Still, it rules once it hits the board. It also...
