The issue is with Standstill is you need to be ahead to gain real use from it. That's really hard to do in a game where you can face a turn one Delver into turn two DRS, At that point Vial is not...
Standstill helps if you are ahead or can get ahead, that means it's dead in any match that has a good turn one play. I like the card but I do not love it. I think I would rather Chalice.
It is a solid list. I have played it before. I will admit thought, as he explained the Tidal I was laughing. Such a mean card.
Walked ass is slang for "Crazy and not in a good way".
I did some editing. I decided two things. One, there was not enough Merfolk to support 4 Silvergill and two, I needed Cursecatcher. So I...
I am thinking about playing a waked ass build for a week and just have a bit of fun. Just at a weekly event. I was wondering what I really wanted to do and I came up with a simple answer, Equip TNN...
It seams that way. Power is ever creeping... Oh well at least white can deal with Thrun now too...
Yes, but it's not worth the space it does not forward the decks overall plan at all and it would end up being worse than whatever you cut for it.
Oh shit. I forgot it can't be... Opps.
Swan song is not great, but it's far from shit. The issue there is that Swan misses the combo and you can win dropping only those two cards. If you have...
As a Painter player.
Chalice is a pain. Stone costs one and most removal also does. But we can tutor for Art hate and deal with it. If you can drop a Chalice and a clock, you will win. If you do...
Depending on meta you run either 14 islands or a combo of islands and Cavern. Since you have so many man lands, it's ok to cut some creatures for land.
It does not fit into the decks plan, we can draw in other ways and its slow. BUT, and there is always a but, but it lets you screw with Top in a Countertop situation. I have to say that while my...
To a point yes. See if we where to run 8 man lands, Standstill makes sense to me. It would be in that case though. There is talk of running Factory with Vault. If we examine the strengths of such a...
What do people think about running 8 man lands. I saw a bit ago it was a topic but it seams to have died away. I am interested in people's views though running Vault and Factory alongside Standstill.
Try a split if the 3 and see what you come up with. I went 3-3-2 with Cavern taking the 2 of. I found it was good. The thing I really want to land is True-Name, so the 2 of is not that bad since your...
The side was:
3x Flusterstorm
3X Swansong
3x Chalice
1x Llawan
2x Relic
2x Jitte
I did not see Storm or Reanimator once and those where the decks I was expecting the most. Might cut a...
I played tonight. Went 3-1 with a fairly common build. The only strange thing would be the 3-3-2 split of Wasteland, Muta and Cavern.
What I really want to talk about was the use of Chalice of the...
I have PI a bob before. He sits in this deck very well. I would not splash for him, but if you are looking to splash for card draw he is a strong choice.
She can also not trigger Silvergill. Just keep that in mind before you splash.
Also we have this set and one more still left to spoil. Word is that Modern is getting a Fish made just for them. If...

To me, the answer will be if you want to play two colours, play another deck. The strength of Fish is that you are not going to die to Stifle, DRS does not feed off you and you don't damage yourself...
Fish is a meta anti Blue and combo deck. It's really never had a favorable match against Affinity. You can use half your side to make it an even fight, but it's really not worth it since you lose so...
Ok as I think about it, I like Shaman more. Oppoent on Elsper? Here, have a Mountain. I am told you really needed it. Playing Blue white control? I can see that tundra making a lovely swamp.
I...

Do people think no power is worth tuning on submerge or is that just too cute?
I am a bit of a traditionalist, but I have to agree no vials is off. Some games are won by vialing in lords at opitune moments, curescatchers to counter or just dropping Silvergill to get around...
