    Re: [Deck] Aggro Loam

    Well, Loam has significantly higher card quality for one. Depths is more of a combo deck, this is more of a midrange/control deck.

    If anything, the deck that is closest to 4c Loam in terms of...

    Re: [Deck] Aggro Loam

    I play Depths + Stage more often than not. Part of it is that Maze and Ghost Quarter consistently underperform for me, but also the ability to threaten a Marit Lage token is huge. it lets us do this...

    Re: [Deck] Aggro Loam

    I've tried Ancient Tomb. The problem with it is it casts so few of our other spells, and we already pay life in a bunch of other ways. Chrome Mox is probably the best of these effects for us, since...

    Re: [Deck] Aggro Loam

    Pridemage is a better mainboard card, because the floor on is its a 2 mana 3/3. However for a sideboard slot, Reclamation Sage is better because you keep the body after getting the effect (higher...

    Rug Delver has historically been an extremely positive matchup. To the point that I wouldn't be worried about it even with 0 sideboard cards. Keeping lands + removal spells is often good enough to...

    If we are talking about the late game, Wayward Swordtooth is probably better than Scout.

    Re: [Deck] Aggro Loam

    That card seems a little too bad on avg.

    In the situation where we have loam going, I don't think this card turns losing games into winning games. We would be winning most of those games anyway....

    Re: [Deck] Aggro Loam

    I'd go with turn 1 Zenith for Arbor.

    The whole deck is full of cards that cost 1 more mana for some benefit. Pfire is shock for 1 more mana with upside, zenith is a creature for 1 more mana with...

    Re: [Deck] Aggro Loam

    So true it hurts.

    Anyway, I'm not sure where OP got the idea that DRS isn't played anymore. I imagine it wasn't in the last placing list, or something. The card is perfectly reasonable to play...

    Re: [Deck] Aggro Loam

    TBH I'd play a different deck if Knight was banned or w.e. If I'm forced to give a real answer, my 75 would change drastically.. my manabase is currently a pile of 1-ofs and that no longer makes...

    Re: [Deck] Aggro Loam

    IMO chalice is good in a topdeck scenario or on any even board, but it loses a lot of power as soon as you let the opponent have 1-2 turns without it. Sometimes that second turn is all the opponent...

    Strongly disagree. Without Chalice there is no reason to avoid 1drops. Now that we are playing 1drops we need a strong reason not to splash blue for brainstorm (since we are apparently cutting red...

    Re: [Deck] Aggro Loam

    Hm, I'm sure I'm missing something here, but an active DRS denies us Loam targets and threatens to eat Loam. I usually only cast loam into an active DRS as bait.



    I think the expectation is...

    Blessed Alliance actually seems really good. It is fighting with plow for space tho, and I don't think we can shave that.

    We can try to replace some abrupt decays with it as both of the cards are...

    For the most part, I match threats with threats. So I don't need to have an answer for everything. A resolved knight with the stage-depths combo beats just about any creature. I am...

    Re: [Deck] Aggro Loam

    Dark Confidant fits that description pretty well. Grim Flayer is appealing as a green sun target, but we are a pretty medium delirium deck and its hard to justify not playing card advantage instead.

    If the card did not trigger on your upkeep, it might be worth talking about. Also, if the opponent is okay with 3 lands in play the card becomes pretty awful. Rancid Earth is kind of neat in that it...

    I'm not unexcited, I'm cautiously optimistic. The pros are pretty clear. The cons, IMO are that Crucible Dude is a grave-deponent 3drop, which puts him in competition with Knight. Not in deck...
