    Re: [Deck] Merfolk

    How about playing with a black splash for perish and virtue's ruin? Mono U builds really have a hard time beating Maverick in my experience.

    I'm thinking that guy can replace Reejery. It'll keep your vials ticked at 2.

    It seems too vial dependent for me, but still looks like a decent plan. Update us with your testing results. I think the best way to combat maverick is to play some underground seas, 4 perishes and 4...

    Re: [DTB] Merfolk

    I think the rug tempo and stoneblade matchups are sort of 50/50. Maindecked Kiras and Spell Pierces are strong versus this matchup. The real problematic match up for merfolk, in my opinion, is...

    Re: [DTB] Merfolk

    I share the same sentiments with you. I'm still hoping they print something like Kira in a merfolk's body or a merfolk vendillion clique in the future.

    I'm wondering, which matchups are the stoneblade package beneficial? Thanks!

    Re: [DTB] Merfolk

    Talking about stifle, what is the correct number of stifles to play now? I'm considering putting 3 on the sb. Or is 4 a must due to merfolk's lack of card manipulation?

    Re: [DTB] Merfolk

    I'd say you need some MD Kiras against Zoo. It protects our dudes, and it has to be two for oned to be killed.

    Thanks shortbus. It's supposed to be for stoneforge decks and combo decks, particulary tide. The lack of misstep left us with only force of will as a hard counter. I was hoping clique could shore up...

    Re: [DTB] Merfolk

    As someone who has a third Kira on the board, I'll say keep it up. It's there for zoo and control decks who bring in more spot removal post board. But it all boils down to your local meta.

    hahaha. I was just planning to test it. I might change it to another hydroblast or something else. I'm pretty scared of zoo again now that misstep is gone.

    To those using Tower of the Magistrate, what do you guys usually remove during sideboarding? Do you guys remove lands or spells? I'm planning to add towers to my sideboard as well due to tricky...

    Re: [DTB] Merfolk

    against zoo I'd put in the Kiras, submerges and relics, probably the threads as well. I'm not sure on how hibernation affects them

    Make sure you test play against it. You gotta have a feel on how they establish their strategy and what cards you remove in sideboarding.

    Besides dismember, you can also put in pithing needle or cursed totem. Stifle can also be used against them but I think few people run stifle in merfolk nowadays.

    What is the ideal count of dismembers to board in against zoo, assuming you are also going to board in submerge? I use a 3/3 split in my sideboard. Using at least two dismembers (8 life) throughout...
