    Re: Food Chain Combo

    I've always liked the NO Food Chain plan. Used to run it in the sideboard back when we were just UG (OG). :)

    Jake (Bondfan) asked me to post his tournament report since he kept receiving a 403 error. I played him in round four with Food Chain (spoiler). In case you were wondering, I ended up going 6-3.

    Re: Food Chain Combo

    I've always liked 2 maindeck Cliques.

    My only questionable slot now is the singleton MD Abrupt Decay. Is the singleton worth it? It's very good against aggressive decks, but how often will we see...

    If we are looking to play around Abrupt Decay, a better choice for the deck MIGHT be Venser, Shaper Savant, since we will typically be ramping into four mana to cast our Griffin. The only issue is...

    Re: Food Chain Combo

    The only downside to this list is that it doesn't have Baleful Strix.

    But I don't know if that affects our gameplan all that much against most decks, considering the sideboard we have.

    Or, of course, +1 Fierce Empath for the sake of consistency. I'm not sure how much those two slots (Ooze/Dryad, etc.) actually affect the game. Perhaps we go for consistency:

    Thanks for the report! I agree with Intuition. And Goyf maindeck get cloggy. I used to run it sideboard, but then discovered there were some better options out there.

    Re: Food Chain Combo

    I think two Manipulate Fates makes the most sense in this build. I have traditionally run 3 Griffins, but with maindeck Misdirections, 4 makes more sense.

    I really like the idea of Quirion Dryad....

    Re: UB Tezzeret

    Lodestone Golemn has been surprisingly effective maindeck. I ran one, but then upped it to three for a tournament when I couldn't get ahold of the Jaces. They weren't bad. :)

    I can see dropping the Agents, as they're best served as fodder for the Griffins.

    Incredibly jealous now, especially since I started foiling my deck out and am partway through a foil Food Chain set. Yours are brilliant. :) Who did them?

    Which is why I like EOTing Clique and using Therapies against Decay. :-)

    Also been testing Spellskite in the board, especially if we're running Sol lands.
