    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    Awesome! I've been seriously considering going down to 3 Aluren too. With all the creature removal in the format today it can be hard to get a 2 creature combo going. I played a tournament last...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    JTMC seems more for control decks like Miracles. As for LLTLH, I would not run any cards that cost more than 1 black in this iteration. I cut mine and went up to 2 Dread of Night, which gives me a...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    It doesn't matter that Noble doesn't produce black. I thought it would but lots of testing proved otherwise.

    We only need one black in the first few turns, which is easy enough to produce. ...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    Glad to hear it!!! I went back up to 4 Shardless and cut Ponder altogether so I can still have 4 TNN. I don't miss Ponder too much since I still have 1 Sylvan Library and 4 Brainstorm. The thing I...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    Agreed. I am wholly committed to BUG. So far I've tested my version with Hierarch & TNN against RUG, Death n Taxes, Sneak n Show, and UB Reanimator (based on the assumption by many that the UB...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    Please see my latest post. I tested Wish again and it was terrible for me just as it was in the past. It always seems good and then just isn't, in my opinion. I'm very happy with my latest...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    Alright...I just beat the crap out of Sneak N Show again after multiple rounds of testing.

    The fact that this new version can beat an established tier-1 combo deck is very exciting.

    I'm...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    Attention All Architects!!!

    After mulling over BOP, Explorer, and Green Sun I don't think those aren't our best plan.

    And I've had some midnight oil breakthroughs in testing my idea with...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    Good points. Any ideas on substitutes for DRS other than second-best mana dorks as of yet?

    ---Update as of 2:58 AM, please see my latest post. I think I might be on to something with the Nobles...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    Thank you for your feedback. Hope you get good results in testing. The other issue I foresee with Wish is it basically forces you to be on the Recruiter build. And then you are in that predicament...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    I never felt like wish was good when I ran it. It's slow and there's no element of surprise. Plus you'd have to clutter up your board with targets when the board needs to be more of a toolbox of...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    Good first attempt at a fix. One concern is double forest. We usually only need a minimal amount of green until we're close to comboing off. I used to run 2 forest and felt the deck ran much...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    Interesting take. The only issue I see there is the mana acceleration DRS gave us allowed us to be fast enough to play early Aluren's, Leovolds, Agents, pay for Dazes etc...without 4 mana dorks I've...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    This banning was really tough on us. Heirarch and BOP come to mind but both seem bad.

    It actually might have made Aluren decks unplayable as we're about to see a resurgence of decks like...
