    Re: [Deck] ANT (Ad Nauseam Tendrils) Storm Combo

    I would rather vomit into my deckbox than cash in 1RU, seven cards from my graveyard, and a tutor to draw three.

    I would rather use BW to get a Strongarm Tactics to kill myself.

    Re: [Deck] ANT (Ad Nauseam Tendrils) Storm Combo

    I've always liked a second Tendrils against slow control decks. Why does Carsten dislike it?

    I'm into the three Tops. I've been running two (one main, one side) for a long time.

    Yes, obviously the reason that certain decks perform better than others is because of herd mentality and net-decking sheople, not because the power level of some cards or strategies are higher than...

    Ha! That metaphor is still probably accurate, since I don't usually like stouts or Vintage. :D
  5. Re: Starcity is adding Modern to second half of 2014 Opens - is Legacy on SCG in dang

    Modern vs. Legacy isn't Dark Lord vs. Natural Light, it's more like an IPA vs. a sour. Both formats are diverse, interesting, and skill-intensive, it's just that sometimes I'm in the mood to sling...

    Re: SCG and its not-as-lousy-as-WotC coverage

    The number of triggers a Miracles player needs to juggle and and resolve while racing the clock makes the deck more difficult to pilot than some people give it credit for. Both decks have to juggle...

    I've been running Pyroclasm for a long time, and it always performs way beyond expectations.

    I haven't tried Deluge yet but it might be an upgraded version of Virtue's Ruin, which is still a...

    Re: [DTB] ANT (Ad Nauseam Tendrils) Storm Combo

    I still run an Iggy in the board, but it's definitely a flexible meta slot for me. I like being able to bring it in instead of PiF in some non-blue matches (what few there are), and I'm running two...

    Re: [DTB] ANT (Ad Nauseam Tendrils) Storm Combo

    I think a lot of people who run BW dedicate to many sideboard slots for it. There are so many awesome non-sorcery cards we can board in for various things, it becomes unnecessary to board weaker...

    Yep, but I can also kill off a Goblin token using a flashbacked Therapy to kill their bridges. Corner case, sure, but I like having it as an option.

    Re: [Deck] ANT (Ad Nauseam Tendrils) Storm Combo

    Hey, guys. I played ANT this past weekend in Milwaukee and thought I'd share my experience with all of you. Here's what I registered:

    1 Tendrils
    1 Past in Flames
    1 Sensei's Divining Top

    Re: [Deck] ANT (Ad Nauseam Tendrils) Storm Combo

    I think we just lose this one, but I'm still trying to figure it out myself. The usual tactics we use to fight against FoW/Daze decks don't work because they can just untap and kill us. It doesn't...

    After a certain point, we're just cantripping into cantrips that cantrip into more cantrips. After maxing out Brainstorm, Ponder, and Probe, I only have room for two Preordains. I can see the logic...

    The thing stopping us from running Doomsday is that it's a trap.

    We prefer Flashfreedom because that's what happens when we "liberate" a country with explosives.

    It can be an extremely skill-intensive format. I'm most experienced with Melira Pod, which I found to be a difficult deck to learn to play even though my time in Legacy has almost entirely been...

    Re: GP Richmond and its affect on legacy

    I'd agree with all of that. I think a better comparison would be to ANT and TES in Legacy; Melira-Pod is more resilient and a bit slower to kill you, Kiki-Pod is a brutal combo deck that can...
