15 lands (19 with mox) is too few.
You're down a card when you cast ritual too, the card itself doesn't do anything, it just produces mana. The reason to play ritual now is that the format is...

Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
Outside of library what popular permanents are you killing with the vindicate effect that you destroying that you wouldn't get 90% of the time with eliminate? The 3 cmc vindicate effects are just old...
Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
Meant the 4x brainstorm comment at the folks wanting to splash for teferi. My brain farted and I forgot to quote the post. My bad!
Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
Lam has given up his standstills for impulses huh? :(
Also if you are including blue in your deck it should start with 4x brainstorm full stop.
Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
Haha yeah unfortunately the tournament practice room is very hit or miss. I mostly use it to familiarize myself with decks. Glad you bought in though. Now there are 3 Ale players :).
Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
Brother, you are thinking the thoughts that are always in my head regarding the 3rd color. The problem in the past has mostly been vs decks that tax your manabase e.g. delver, D&T, etc. I used to...
Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
I've been playing celestial purge in my side as an answer to it and w&6, it's kind of gimmicky but it does buy you a bit of time.
Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
all of them
Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
Have you tried out the new yawgmoth yet? I think it's a palace jailer without the swingy downside. Have very much been enjoying playing him on MTGO.
Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
I don't think it's that big of a deal, if you were playing canopy in your list this is a pretty obvious upgrade but other than that I think that the BW manland is still better as it allows you to...
Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
The card has been pretty impressive. He's killed 2 jaces and pretty much kept a turn 2 S&T -> griselbrand from killing me. I've always liked resto angel but she felt like she really didn't do much...
Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
Got em boys.

Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
Maybe this is a bad take but it feels like the format has gotten way too efficient to actually play cards like sinkhole anymore. I think the reason that the pox player who seems to top 8 every...
Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
It was good meeting you at EW too dude. I think I saw another aler when I was walking around the side events.

Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
Brutality has been very hit or miss for me. It's very good against burn obviously but it's kind of medium against the fair blue decks after the DRS ban. I've very often found myself wishing it was...
Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
I think that the biggest problem that this deck has are the same problems that every SFM deck has right now which is that grixis/miracles are so full of 2 for 1s that you fall behind and eventually...
Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
In the dark i'd imprint the hymn and play the bob, he has the highest upside in surviving on the play. I usually imprint either extra discard spells or the most expensive card in my hand usually. I...
Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
To the slaughter/vindicate seem like better answers and it's pretty easy getting to delirium when the blue rock deck is making you discard/killing your creatures. This card doesn't really look that...
Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
It seems like you have enough of a "toolbox" to warrant running the white recruiter. What do you think about that?
Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
I've run into the same problems with the deck, I actually ended up cutting the chrome moxes and had a little more success. I think the biggest problem is that there really isn't a good way to...
Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
Sculler might not be your best bet if you're playing Chrome Mox as you can't imprint artifacts, you do have that guy they play in modern humans though. I don't think I would ever cut souls from this...
Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
Kambal is such a great card in this deck but the 3 cmc is so awkward at times. Why couldn't he be :B::W: so people could play him in place of Sculler? He's also fantastic in matchups where your...
Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
Smallpox seems like such an odd choice for the deck, I can see the synergies with flagstones and lingering souls but really isn't much past that? If you were playing ghasts you could ideally go turn...
Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
Just play the deck my dude, it's still good. You no longer have the ability to cast white spells of Swamp, Swamp but that's fine since there are so much viable options for that slot. Mother of Runes...
Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)
Why are y'all so intent on playing bad cards? If you want yard hate just play a relic or spellbomb maindeck. Even if they aren't good in the matchup, atleast they replace themselves.
