I am interested too. BTW I am scared to play 2x SDT against D&T that seems to be quite popular ATM.
Additional tendrils make better ad nauseams, not worse.
Daze seems really odd but I see it is getting some value both on the play and sometimes even on the draw.
I am curious about carpet of flowers, since you say you would like to bring them back: are...
Miracle, Shardless BUG, Goblins and Belcher (G1 won on T2 and G2 won on T1 facing hordes of goblins).
On the paper not difficult MU but Miracle where I blindly called CB with Therapy (missing) and...
I have just won a Karakas in my LGS thanks to a 5-0 with Rodrigo's list. But the more I play with it the more I wish Preordain to be a second ToA. It gives better ad nauseams and more outs in grindy...
I have mixed feelings on top since it slows you down dramatically, while being key to middle to late game advantage. My will to give it another try is for the multiple tendrils build: it happens...
I am on the recall wagon. 3 is ok, you want to have them because you cannot rely on discard only. But in my opinion you can side only them, and not other things like dacays. The only MU I want to...
I did not top8 at Ovino! :) I was not even there.
Anyway:
4 dark ritual
4 cabal ritual
1 rain of filth
4 brainstorm
4 ponder
4 probe
4 led
I lost the last match of swiss on 5-1-1 against the final winner of the event (grixis delver). I played a Grinding Station list that was the right choice for the meta (defeated Miracle with three...
@Sloshthedark: did you play your usual maindeck? Any change for the future?
I usually side in a single Massacre to answer hate when they have it (canonist) or clean the board when under pressure (mentor but also usual Miracle creatures). I haven't found it a wasted slot,...
What's the boarding plan vs. Miracle? Do you side in both Massacre or just go with decays and grip? Xantid?
I am debating the inclusion of ad nauseam post board, since it can steal games but the...
I see most of recent lists run six discard spells maindeck, against the popular seven this deck used to have. I ask the reason behind this change, since I lost a lot of games due to having everything...
Beside Surgical Extraction (and specific hate like Sadistic Sacrament), what do you find good against the mirror? Or simple accept the coinflip?
Hi guys, considering the slight shift in the metagame I want to ask all of you if going back to 2/3 burning wishes maindeck could have some merits. I see a comeback of surgical effects and burning...
I guess you should have shuffled with ponder, assuming you fired a probe first (you had 2 in your starting hand ).
Casting Krosan Grip versus Burn on the play isn't an option most of the time since you risk to be dead already.
Yesterday I won a tournament with carpets in my sideboard. They were really good for me too. Almost MVP for G2 and G3.
Congrats Kai! Impressive results from you!
By the way I am really curious about you playing Empty the Warrens as replacement for Ad Nauseam.
I have mixed feelings about this move:
- when I play...
@Jona: what do you propose in a 2 nauseam maindeck list? I guess you should run 1 chrome mox or even 2. I saw some lists from yours in the past where you had 1 chrome + 1 rain of filth along with the...
Definetely 2 sensei's divining top maindeck are not the best configuration in very fast metagames: for the same reasons (heavy presence of reanimators in MTGO metagame) I switched back to only one,...
My testing so far has revealed many scenarios it is actually useful in. The best is not a 4 lives regrowth!
Some of them from the top of my memory... most of them corner cases as seen by their own...
I don't know why this should sound as a troll post. It has pretty useful application considering free cantrips and sensei for example. I have also just found some lists on tc decks that used it in a...
I have been trying for a couple of weeks a singleton Noxious Revival in my list, that's quite a stock list, in place of 1 preordain (so 1 grim 1 sensei main). I find it really strong, against discard...
