    Re: Ruby Storm

    Let's be fair. It's this threads deck and I am just one of the many people who have enjoyed playing it. I got lucky that's all. I think the led version is better. That being said it doesn't make the...

    Re: Ruby Storm

    I agree the LED version is superior, it is more consistent and more explosive at what it does and if you wanted to take this deck to a big tournament the LED list is what I would take. It has its...

    Re: Ruby Storm

    Reanimator is just a unsalvagable matchup. I keep a crypt in my board to pair with the couple gambles to hedge, but unless you devote 4-5 slots in your board your not going to budge the % points at...

    Re: Ruby Storm

    How I play the deck is very much a PIF deck, and guide is lacking there. For example, a Desperate Ritual is better gas with PIF and AOI and with a medallion or helm out but Guide is better at...

    Re: Ruby Storm

    Why do all that work? lets say you are talking about making 20 goblins with ETW, then casting burning wish for warstrike to finish off the game. It seems to me just as easy to burning wish for...

    Re: Ruby Storm

    Thought necro pebbles was called coco pebbles not fruity? also the first Necro Combo decks where really bad Lands Edge decks. This is totally off topic.

    Re: Ruby Storm

    You can find examples of decks being developed long after the printings, RB Reanimator and Dark Depths come to mind. I don't think it matters much though.

    Testing on guttersnipe was a bust. It...

    Re: Ruby Storm

    Basically it is a hedge against decks that are highly interactive with you. Assuming that decks take out creature removal it should be good against :d&t, 4c, bug decks but not grixis delver because...

    Re: Ruby Storm

    I agree 100% but monkey is easily the worst ritual spell. Additionally landing a rock on turn one is the best thing this deck can do. I think this is one of those its fine either way and it comes...

    Re: Ruby Storm

    1. Yeah in a couple games, most of the time they get forced or broken, but its better the Grid then a Ruby or Helm. They make a pretty big deference becasue you can just cast them the turn before you...

    Strangely enough probably run more gambles to stabilize missing pieces and work as a way to find past in flames as an engine

    I am not looking to argue either tbh. I guess what I am trying to ask is the following: tendrils accounts for roughly 60% of your kills. Why is that? Is it because it was easy? Is it a personal...

    So I am new to this deck but why do we run tendrils. I am only two matches into a league right now but I have been basically able to grapeshot people for 30 each game with ease. Its seems to me when...
