    Re: Ruby Storm

    Given Burning Wish is the only win-con in my list, let's say it's a not an issue at all. You generate so much mana so easily, it does not really matter when you wish for something (or if you draw a...

    Re: Ruby Storm

    How is this a one-card combo? You need Experimental Frenzy + Doomsday. That's two cards. Same with Lim-dul's vault.

    - Experimental Frenzy in play + doomsday = 2 cards.
    - Experimental Frenzy in...

    Re: Ruby Storm

    Already messed around with it. Will check the discord. But even though it's a nice interaction, I'm aiming for a one-card combo here. Resolv Frenzy, play your deck, win.

    Re: Ruby Storm

    So I've spent my evening trying to get a good (or is it fun?) build breaking Experimental Frenzy. This is what I came up with. Still a lot of questions though about the exact numbers on a lot of...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] High Tide

    This situation will only arise against very very bad Sneak&Show players that have no clue whatsoever how to play a combo mirror. Sneak&Show is a bad matchup for us. It always has the threat of a fast...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] High Tide

    I know how good remora can be and I have played it myself. My point was that you want your deck to be as streamlined as possible game 1. And remora kinda spoils that as it is a dead card against...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] High Tide

    As for your deck, there are several things I don't like about it (and I may or may not be right about them :wink: )

    Maindeck remora. The best thing about combodecks is having an awesome game 1...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] High Tide

    3 mana sorcery speed to pick 2 out of 4 might be impressive in Standard. This is Legacy.
    I much rather have cunning wish to get me exactly what I need at instant speed. Which gives something in the...

    Re: new version

    I'm afraid you don't really understand how this deck works.

    You've cut half your A-plan (by cutting intuition as your wishes now can't find enter the infinite to combo out)
    and cut your entire...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] High Tide

    Basic math says you are wrong.

    4 lands in play
    - tap 2 for high tide, tap another 2 for snap, bounce thalia, untap two and tap them again -> 5 mana
    - tap 1 for slaughter pact, tap another 1 for...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] High Tide

    As for harder matchups (but not necessarily unfavorable)
    - Decks like BUG, RUG and Esper (after side) aren't freerides, but still in our favor. You need to be focussed and play your best though to...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] High Tide

    What Cave says :)

    Either 4 turnabout main like the German list or 3 turnabout and 2-3 cloud of faeries.
    Or stick to only 3 turnabout, no other untap main and lose a lot more games.
