  2. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    The list is supposed to beat Jace + Snapcaster decks, Tomb + Chalice decks, Show and Tell decks and Reanimator first and foremost. There's some serious splash damage done to Death & Taxes because of...

    If you're looking for my opinion on Tarmogoyf, this recent article has you covered: https://theweeklywars.wordpress.com/2018/04/18/untitled-unedited/. It also covers most other card choices, but note...

  6. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    I don't think it has ever been good for Magic Online Leagues because the meta is just too diverse, but it's generally a pretty good deck for swiss tournaments if you know what the winning metagame...
  7. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Countermagic is one way to deal with Vial and Equipment. I vastly prefer having Spell Pierce over having Stifle. Countering Vial is important and countering a Swords to Plowshares can also be very...
  8. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Back when Knight of the Mists was played, it think it was pretty deece because of how much worse Dredge was and a lot of the better hate didn't exist. You could never play it today and use Dredge as...
  9. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Knight of the Mists was a Maverick / Dredge split card. I still have mine, and I tried very hard to justify playing them at Eternal Weekend; didn't get there =(

    Re: [Deck] bUrg Tempo

    I would question the green splash without Loam in the deck, but Loam does so much work in Delver mirrors and against a bunch of random things. If I ever go back to the deck, I might try a lighter...
  12. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    We originally started playing Library back in 2012 because we wanted 10 1/2 threats preboard and 6 1/2 removal spells. Library did that much better than Snapcaster Mage on average, but back then...
  13. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    At first I thought you still wanted to have Mongoose, then my impression was that it was worse than Mandrills, then Miracles came back and I wanted to go Jonadian again... What's probably correct is...

    Re: [Deck] bUrg Tempo

    So after not having played any BURG since Dig Through time got banned, I picked it up again recently thanks to Ethan Gaieski. I definitely enjoyed his Delver / Snapcaster version, but I ended up...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] High Tide

    Hey guys, I have never been active in this thread and in fact I don't have any kind of history with this deck whatsoever, but after Shawn streamed with it and Mackan / Marcus / Truckis offered to...

    Okay, first off, all my matches with Jonadian have been uploaded to YouTube now: #thedailywars #23-27 — Complete Jonadian Threshold League Playlist

    As for the scenario I posted above, I think I'm...

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

    I don't really like Dark Confidant at all. Other business spells are usually much better.

    In more entertaining news (well, at least I hope so), I recorded a league with this oldschool Grinding...
  18. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Still trying to figure it out, not sure where to take that list. Ironically, I did record a league with Mongoose/Mandrills today:

    //Creature
    4 Hooting Mandrills
    4 Nimble Mongoose

    //Instant
    4...

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

    Or you play in a way that does not need to go all-in on one card. Not that I'm saying that Grid's effect is as good as Swarm's, it clearly isn't, but it's still a strong effect. And keeping up 3-4 is...

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

    For what it's worth, you can still play Defense Grid then. I didn't get to try it myself yet, but I've been told it's decent.
  21. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Interesting that you say you like Goyf, first time I've heard that in a while. I'm gonna try a Delver/Mandrills/True-Name split when I find the time, that looks promising in the current metagame as...
  22. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    All these cards are in decks Mongoose is great against, it's more about the stupid combo decks that you want Deathrite and fast beatz against.
  23. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    That is not why I cut them.
  24. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Yo, 'sup guys? I've had an itch to play Canadian again in the new format and I quite enjoyed it. I'm back to recording videos and the second league I played was with an updated, unusual version of...
