Thank you, that's exactly what I was looking for. I'm glad stifle tempo lists are still a competitive choice, I've always preferred their nimble, synergystic approach to midrange playing daze and...

I've been away from magic a few weeks, and it seems like the cutting edge RUG decklists are shifting at an unprecedented pace... The deck has gone a more grindy/midrange direction with the printing...

Between the two, I would probably choose library because it grows goyf, although I think neither is necessary in the current meta (not enough uw control).

If you're playing arcanist (you should)...

Mostly as a 1 or 2 of in the side, along with karakas and sometimes bojuka big. Some have tried it main though, not sure that makes sense, since the silver bullet lands are still in the side

The consensus is pretty much not to play stifle anymore. It doesn't fit with the new cards and style of the deck (which is much more powerful than before). Stifle might get you some free wins...

As for compost, with black decks moving away from green...

This is a lot more debatable. Sure Strix can get walled by opposing creatures, but shroud is still REALLY good against a number of decks other than Miracles, including Grixis control. You can often...

Dies to ubiquitous and cheap removal, while also lining up poorly against a lot of commonly played creatures (Angler, Strix, Shadow) sounds like a pretty good reason not to play a creature. What's a...

Tarmogoyf has to go: there's simply too many fatal pushes flying around, AND it also regularly gets outsized by Anglers/Shadows. You can try to swap them for 2 Mandrills, but the dyssynergy with...

Siding out forked bolt is insanity, as it is probably your best mainboard card against them. Also, as another poster said, Rough/Tumble and Submerge really should be 2-ofs in the side, and both are...

Hello folks, small tournament report of me playing RUG last week at my bi-weekly Friday night legacy. Nothing extraordinary but it's easier to write this than my thesis presentation. Attendance was...
