Currently working on optimizing an Infect 75, but Noble Hierarch RUG is my next project after that. Using the mana advantage to leverage Stifle/Daze/Wasteland/Winter Orb is some of the most fun I've...
Think it's worth noting that she seemed to be on a Hierarch version of the deck. I don't know how it compares to a more traditional threat suite, but it does seem like a good way to decrease reliance...
This isn't a Legacy challenge, mtgtop8 links and refers to it as a 'MTGO Legacy league 5-0 Compilation.'
Here is the alleged source...
Pretty sure that's a fake decklist, there's no record of it on the 5-0 compilation.
You definitely want to find room for the Sylvan Library vs Infect. I'd recommend trimming a Force of Will or a Tarmogoyf.
All fair points. I've been hinging my 75 on Winter Orb which in turn means there's a couple of things that we'll be doing differently (for example I'm pretty unlikely to cut FoW vs Grixis Control...
Thanks for taking the time to write this up, seems like you had a pretty good run outside of getting Eldrdazi'd.
Regarding your Grixis Control matchup, what's the rationale for taking out...
Hey all, here's another tournament recap from last night's 4 rounder. List for reference:
Main Deck:
3 Noble Hierarch
4 Delver of Secrets
2 Tarmogoyf
2 Hooting Mandrils
2 True-Name Nemesis

Thanks for sharing. The Tarmogoyfs were all-stars in another event I played last night, but I've noticed that Grixis Control is on the downswing locally which may have been a big factor in that. If...
Glad it's been working out for you. Regarding TNN, I've found the card to really only be exceptional against control decks and non-blue fair decks. True-Name's obviously subpar against combo, and...
Hey all, new-ish to RUG and wanted to get everyone's thoughts on some ideas. List for reference:
Main Deck:
3 Noble Hierarch
4 Delver of Secrets
2 Tarmogoyf

2 True-Name...
Appreciate the quick response, congrats on the recent top8
You're right, all matchup advice is always contextual. I appreciate you adding a disclaimer that your advice shouldn't be taken at...
On the topic of Spell Snare, how much does this deck care about Dark Confidant? The life loss for the opponent is nice, but the card advantage is often enough to dig us into a hole that we can't...
Might be a local thing, but Wooded Foothills is definitely not a signal for RUG Delver. The top tier green based decks are Elves, R/G lands and Infect while Burn and Imperial Painter are both base...
I'm expecting a lot of Elves/DnT/Infect in my local meta post Dig ban. With that in mind, I'd say Forked Bolt is going to be far more useful than an extra +1/+1 on a goyf.
