He is referring to a loam shell that Niklas played. It drops black to play blue for Jaces, Cliques, and Flusterstorms.

When are you guys typically bringing in ghost quarter?

The biggest mistake people make with this deck is playing it like pseudo Lands. Life from the loam is a great tool this deck has but it can easily function without it. You should always have a good...

I tend to agree that grixis delver is not favorable. Pyro can easily get out of control, angler is extremely hard to handle, deathrite can mess with loams / p fires, they can force our business...

Swords to plowshares.

Punishing fire is the first cut for me against fast combo. I just leave my decays in for any stuff out of the board liek young pyromancer and the like.

Gaddock can shut off important things like...

If I really wanted an exploration on a stick I would probably play Mina and Denn, Wildborn. Its a 4/4 so dodges bolt, explores, and gives knight trample.

EDIT: As a matter of fact, this sounds...

Just the fact that its 5 mana. I've wanted the exploration effect too but more in the early turns not after turn 4. It does seem like a bomb that can take over the game though.

I do not bring them in against miracles - I actually think this is bad (I have seen other people post they bring thalia in...why??). For delver variations, its possible that you can no longer bring...

Please tell me you guys seriously don't leave in Gaddock Teeg against delver decks? I would never cut chalices against RUG or Grixis Delver. I could see the rationale for cutting them against BUG...

I thought pyroclasm is more of a substitute for toxic deluge, and not golgari charm? For the above stated reasons I would not cut Charm. Abrupt decays are very taxed post board to take care of...

If I was going to play E Witness I would also play Volrath's Stronghold. I've never tested the former idea, but the latter idea is often too cute to be effective.

If anyone cares to watch some replay of the deck, I was on South Florida Magic twitch stream twice today. Beat Grixis control 2-0 then lost to Sneak and Show 0-2. Really missed having the...

It is handling delver decks relatively "easy". But the nature of delver decks is they are very even vs the field. Additionally, they will bring in answers to chalice of the void and cards like...

To the slaughter seems like hot tech, not going to lie, I would dread having that cast against me.

I have already been running 27 lands and combo main for some time, so I will swap a tranquil...

Well, if I have a decent 6 card hand without a Leyline, I'm not going to mull into oblivion trying to find one while they just durdle until K Grip or make a 20/20 anyways in the first couple turns......

Maybe I'm just unlucky then. The few times I have won (games, not matches) were on the back of leyline, which is why I don't want to cut it.

Wow...lots of good information here. I have to say, I have never been able to beat Lands with this deck. They always open up with T1 exploration / manabond and proceed to waste or port me out of...

Seems very good vs Eldrazi, who often are "paying" for their creatures through Eye of Ugin, thats what I had in mind. Also does not allow them to overload the board.

I like the idea of Tabernacle SB. Has anyone tested this before?

About a week ago I was trying to make an adjustment for the eldrazi MU. I was in between adding a goyf back to the main deck or just straight up adding a dismember. I was going to shave an abrupt...

i could see cutting 1 liliana but not more than that. It's very easy to lock them out of the game with her. Thalia is also a house against them as in conjunction with wasteland their spells quickly...

I concur with immediately killing deathrite. That guy is a huge thorn in our side- eats loams / punishing fires and removes lands from our GY. Kill on sight!

I posted earlier about the lands MU-...

How do we beat lands? I lost to it 3x in a tournament on Saturday. Combined 1-6 in games.

Hornet nest is great, love how its Zenith-able.
