For the duals, if you're still deciding which way to jump between ANT/TES, hold off on #2. If you go TES, the best will be badlands. If you go ANT, I'd recommend a second sea (sea into sea lets you...

Check out the Slosh style lists (42AD on MTGO). They have less reliance on Ad Naus. You're still a little life total sensitive since you're actually using it to stall out the game, as well as for...

I have one question, Slosh: if I have to change Grim for Petition, is it still worth playing this list? Or is Grim a bit too integral? I understand it will change a little how the list plays out, and...

Surfinbird19 is still on 2 petitions, so I'd suggest that any list he's playing consistently is likely to give good results. He's not playing rain of filth, although I don't see any issue running it...

Maybe out of landstill? Kambal seems better in the paradoxical mirrors, although this card is easier on the mana.

But I think you're right. It doesn't hit legacy in any meaningful way. At least on...

Thought we should get a bit of discussion around the latest piece of hatebear nonsense going on, so how are people feeling about this?

Basically this in the vast majority of situations. The longer the game goes, the more likely he is to hit though-knot or other disruption. Even just drawing smasher can be a problem if it takes you...

I've been hanging out to watch the finals of this all week, tomorrow is Saturday so I'll finally have some time to :)

I'm actually not minding it against Grixis. I've noticed there isn't really much I want against them other than empty, so I'm happy to throw in a couple of extra cards without feeling like I've...

While I'll let Cyrus speak for himself, I'm happy to trade fluster for thoughtseize/other targeted discard. Holding fluster for a hymn that might never happen is a recipe for disaster.

In terms of...

Couple of questions for you:

There's 2 losses to DnT, which is normally a fairly straightforward matchup. I know you said most losses were variance (which lines up well with how I'd normally...

If you haven't already, watch Rodrigo actually go through the replay of this. It's on twitch, account is togorestcg

As for my personal sideboarding plan, this is a rough guide I put together for a...

Daze :P. Unfortunately, I'm guessing that with Dr S gone, t1 thoughtseize will become a much more common play for a lot of the black-based midrange decks. The upside of this is that they're likely...

Leaving you down a card is far more significant than the information it gives you. Probe was valuable as it was both free and didn't leave you down a card.

Discard is just straight up better as it...

The loss of Probe doesn't really impact the reanimator matchup. UB reanimator was and always will be wildly unflavoured. R/B reanimator isn’t really impacted by the loss of probe either. This matchup...

Maxing out of preordain, at least initially, is a must. We are at heart a turbo-xerox deck and what we need to do is maximise consistency. Probe has previously been a component of this.

Peek is...

Welcome! Hope you enjoy learning about the most fun deck in legacy.

Sentinel tower is...well, it looks like fun. It could be really exciting to jam out turn one and then try top cantrip through...

We have a big (for Australia) event coming up soon. I dread that I'm going to see the same meta

I personally only see disadvantages in playing Grixis. I don't believe playing the green splash has a significant impact on the mana base and moving to grixis restricts the sideboard cards you're...

I think the biggest reason to play Bayou is that a very significant portion of the time, for the games you're fetching green you're wanting to fetch Bayou over Trop. This means you're able to cast...

Just keep going. Eventually you'll just be able to grind out anyone!

Nice article, CabalTherapy. It definitely resonates with how I've been feeling a little lately.

Mire gets a red source, catacombs a green, so misty/mire or tarn/catacombs would be a better breakdown as you still wind up with all fetches getting all colours

I think there's always been reasons to play green. I think the rise of neo-miracles has provided stronger reasons again. But that's not what I wanted to discuss here. I was perfectly happy for some...

These two exactly. 10-14 goblins doesn't leave your opponent with many chances to find an out. This isn't great in every matchup obviously, otherwise empty would live in my mainboard, but there's...

It can also be played reactively against surgical, discard and other counter spells. It's nice against hymn, although to be fair I'm rarely boarding it in against hymn decks.
