I think if you are playing BUG/Pile/Delver, you just accept that you are gonna get Blood Mooned some games. In the long run, I think you will lose more games because you have a basic Forest in your...
I've got 1 Edict/1 Push/1 Staticaster in my board at the moment, though that changes frequently. Everything is a balancing act with Delver, so cutting Edicts/Pushes makes you weaker against decks...
Sweepers in the board are useful for more than just Elves, they can come in against D&T, other Pyromancer decks, Maverick, and Storm if they are relying on an early EtW to get there. I usually keep...
Quick report from my a weekly, my first time playing the deck in paper. I played the list in my last post.
Round 1 - UB Reanimator - Game 1, I land a DRS on turn one which he is never able to...
Does anyone run Czech Pile in a combo heavy meta? Most of the Czech Pile lists I see seem to be more geared towards grinding out fair decks, with limited G1 interaction against Combo. My meta is...
I was wondering what you all use for free online play. I'm currently using Cockatrice, but it seems that the quality and quantity of Legacy players has declined from a couple of years (I'm on the...
I was trying to spur some additional discussion, not just shut it down by pointing to tournament results. I completely agree on the netdecking piece and playing what you are comfortable with. ...
So Agrippa's version of the deck is approximately where I imagined taking it, which is closer to the old Canadian Threshold shells. I like the list because it reminds me of a deck that I enjoyed...
I was hoping to get some feedback on Cabal Therapy in the side for a Stifle list. To be honest, I've never been all that great at blind-naming with Therapy. My main experience with Therapy comes...
I've wondered about this myself and I think it mostly comes down to the meta that you expect. We have a pretty high curve, so running Wasteland requires upping your total number of lands. Michael...
Teferi's Response seems more cute than good. You have to run enough that you'll have it in hand when you need, which is probably far more often than you want it. I can't see this being better than...
Not to derail, but how necessary is double sleeving? I've always single-sleeved my stuff and saw double sleeving as an uneccessary precaution that was only really necessary if your deck was full of...
The power level of the deck is much more tied to the skill of the pilot than the exact 75 being played. For example, a straight UW list made Top 16 of GPLV so it definitely still has some legs. ...
Amended the post after doing more Googling. It is relevant to note that you can use the method, but that it is not considered randomizing your deck.

Edit: More Googling:
My knowledge of playing Maverick comes primarily from jamming lots of RUG Delver against it. I played mostly against the straight G/W versions and much less against the newer three-color variants,...
I don't think Team America is a very good Stifle deck. If you want to play Stifle, both Grixis and Canadian Thresh are better shells for the card. With Stifle, you are trying to end the game...
I'm looking for some ideas about sideboarding with this deck. I've got a few specific areas that I'd like advice on, I'm using the standard Lili/Hymn build. My meta is insanely combo heavy, more...
Sylvan Library is a great card, but like all sideboard slots, it is metagame dependent. I like Library in games where other decks have you beat on card advantage so it ensures a consistent stream of...
I struggled with two things for a while with Grixis Delver: not wanting to run 14 creatures and wanting to run Gitaxian Probe. After reading advice in this thread and doing more extensive...
Abrupt Decay, Chalice, and Wasteland all seem really good against you. Not much you could do about Decay, but your manabase could be more stable. Scepter and Snapcaster are both pretty mana...
My meta is combo heavy (Reanimator, Sneak/show, some Storm) and a lot of random Tier 2 jankiness. Funnily enough, someone 5-0'ed a daily with this creature base:
4x DRS
4x Delver
3x Goyf
1x...
Well my self control failed me and I ordered 3 Goyfs for my deck. My one bit of restraint was that I didn't get the full playset, so there's that. Now I'm curious what people think the best creature...
I was hoping to get feedback on a few questions regarding BUG Delver. To preface, I cashed out of the game 4 years ago and sold most of my stuff that wasn't on the reserve list. Getting back in the...
Jam something with a defined shell that plays Brainstorm and Force of Will if you are concerned about variance. Right now the metagame is in flux, so it is hard to say what it will look like in...
