  1. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    I think Rough is a huge trump vs any creature deck; Merfolk, Elves, D&T, Mav, etc, and I wouldnt call it mediocre versus any of that. I dont know, we've obviously had different experiences with the...
  2. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Personally, i think a lot of the appeal to RUG is getting to play this one sided sweeper.
  3. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    5-0'd an online League with this list the other day, but alas, it didnt get chosen to be publicized. :(

    Deck was gas, and still lots of fun to play. It might not have the raw power of Grixis,...
  4. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    I think for the short term, Strix and DRS will run rampant, so i dont think this will make RUG great again... Maybe years down the road there will be a DRS ban, then we can all party in the street....
  5. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Tough beats, you like the list, though? I suppose its match-up dependent?

    I'm trying out 2 TNNs in Grixis and like it a lot, TNN is very well positioned right now, i feel like i win 90% of the...
  6. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    I dont know if any of these are right, as i'm a big fan of shaving as opposed to out right taking out all of one spell a lot of the time, but this is how i do it.

    Grixis delver - I like to take...
  7. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Spiked another 5-0 in a League about an hour ago with this very traditional list: https://deckstats.net/decks/56084/451448-rug-delver

    I decided to go back and try no Probes, adding another Pierce...
  8. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Tough luck getting 9th place, your list continues to impress! I was railing FriendRudy's stream for most of the tournament, who lost in the top 8. I didnt want to play in the Challenge because i...
  9. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Unfortunately, this deck doesnt have crazy Probe synergies, like with Cabal or Young Peezy, but i do think the information is relevant for a Stifle deck and i cant count the amount of times i've been...
  10. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    I dont know, i always felt like Pierce was weak. You will barely hardly ever pierce a Swords or Terminus, I feel like there are far more threatening 2 CMC spells so I'd rather have Snare. ...
  11. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Well, got my name up on the new MODO League Leader Board thing with this build:

    http://deckstats.net/decks/56084/451448-rug-delver

    I went through 2 Grixis Delver decks, UR Delver, Eldrazi, and...
  12. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Yes.
  13. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    To be fair, all the Delver variants are going to struggle with the decks you just mentioned.

    I talk myself out of switching to Grixis Delver all the time. It obviously puts up better results, but...
  14. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Very nice, congrats! I wish there were more Legacy tournaments in my area, but they are few and far between, unfortunately. I've 4-1'd the last two online Leagues i played in, though, with 2 Git...
  15. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Nice, congrats. Looking forward to seeing your thoughts. I've been less active with RUG since the Legacy month online is over and its Modern PPTQ season, but i still always love to hear RUG Delver...
  16. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Hey there, yeah that was a great match and the last happy moment i had in that tournament, haha. I'm glad you found the VOD and got to see the other side of the table, i always find that fun and...
  17. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Similar experience as J.A., i played in the Legacy Festival Finals to a 2-4 drop finish, bleh. Was 2-1 at one point and that felt good, but then got shat all over. I saw nothing but tier 1 and 1.5...
  18. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    There seems to be a lot of differing opinions as to what cards people think are good versus what, lol. I might actually be off the Winter Orb hype for the moment, after testing 2 in the board. I...
  19. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Its time to get serious about sideboards, i feel like my hodgepodge of one of's is fine for random fun FNM's, but my board doesnt seem to cut it online, lately, in competitive leagues. I'm trying to...
  20. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Good run, man. Considering your experience, it makes the case that a well rounded sideboard might be just fine, as opposed to a board that tries to hate on Miracles and the other top decks too much....
  21. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Thanks for putting the time into that primer, i look forward to reading it!

    I played at a FNM last Friday and went 2-1, losing to Miracles. Then, played in the Legacy Challenge on Saturday, and...
  22. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Its an online thing and its foil if you 5-0.
  23. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    You get a non-foil if you go 4-1, for the next couple weeks.
  24. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Got my league 5-0 last night on my second attempt, woo hoo! That gives me an invite to the Legacy Festival finals at the end of the month and a sweet foil Ponder promo.

    Really glad to just get...
  25. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    One of the shops in the Denver area was having a Legacy SCG IQ yesterday (Sunday 6/26), which is a fairly rare occurrence for us. Colorado has a fantastic Magic scene, but it is usually Standard and...
