Welcome to the humble Dreadstill thread! First things first, we (or at least I) like info; the more we know about your question and its context, the better answers we're usually able to provide.

Thanks Fox for the highlights on upcoming cards in the new sets. Run Afoul in particular got me thinking about the rise of Worldgorger Dragon combo, since that card came up in a group for its...
No idea how accurate a predictor of the paper meta online events are, but given recent trends, are we in a position to effectively combat Companions?
If you guys have experience playing online...
Against DnT (or any deck abusing Vials), you're probably going to want to look at boarding out some number of Standstills first. They just abuse it better than us.
G2, FoW (and FoN if you run...
Pretty much card for card what you had posted before. Differences are:
-1 Noxious
-1 Phyrexian Dreadnought
-1 Wasteland
+2 Astrolabe
+1 Academy Ruins
SB:
1x CoW
Underworld Breach has been banned, but Oko remains. Looks like we're living in an Oko world for a while yet.
On the dev side of things, not too much going on except for planning to take an UG...
@ pandaman: No worries. Practically all my tourney reports thus far are L's. It's just a bunch of me learning, and given the time I actually have to practice, a lot of it is learning on the fly.

Nice results man. Mind posting your list? Wondering what splash you're running.
Worst performance I've had since returning to Legacy; went 0-3 -> drop at the latest Knight-Ware. I think a lack of confidence in my list, along with poor in-game decisions really did me in.
Rd...
This is the exact reason I have 2x main on non-UW.
When you mentioned your list had issues with lands, what did you mean? Flooded out or couldnt get the colors you need? 7 non-colored mana...
Mind posting the list? :)
Someone clip/record this! I'm still at work :( Would love to hear your decision making and thought process as you play it out Rood-man!
I was totally unaware of this, thanks for the heads up!
Hoping colo will chime in on the use of CB and your feedback as always is much appreciated. :)
Most successful night thus far running the big boys; went 2-1-1 to earn a bit of store credit, drawing the last game (vs. Burn) due to the late hour. We played out a G1, and I'm fairly certain I...
I don't disagree. It's more of a question of having some semblance of a curve to support CB + having a "free" counter available. Was considering cutting Scroll to allow +2 Dazes with an extra slot...
Haven't yet had the chance to play it out, but the thought of CB in a UR build is becoming less appealing to me on paper. Using this as reference:
8x Scalding Tarn/Flooded Strand
3x Wasteland...
Another grind session against a friend on UW Miracles. Ran both my UR list and my UW list, regular Bo3 each time. Some observations:
- Brazen Borrower main feels like a must if not on UW; life...
I feel fairly certain that if MtG follows the same metagame conventions that SSBM, SFV, and OW do, their meta will certainly differ. Different format (standard), but I remember it was mentioned in a...
@Rood: congrats man! Always putting up the results with the big boys. I'm also really interested in the move down to 1x Scroll in the main; does the online meta really demand that? Cool call on the...
My mind missed the most obvious answer. :tongue: By the way, post that list! Would help everyone here give insight on options you could try.
Got to play several rounds against a Miracles deck...
VERY interesting that your meta has something against what is a pretty long-established card in Wasteland. I understand that people don't like being able to play their fun and shiny spells, but this...
WW will always be difficult to pull. A resilient and reliable manabase is one the strengths of Dreadstill, and trying to pull off WW for an effect that Small Teferi can do seems lacklustre; you'll...
On my typical UW build, Reanimator hasn't felt too bad. Between the extensive permission list and 4x StP/3x SCM, it wasn't often that I felt like I had no answers to early attempts to go off.
...
Hope all the Noughty boys had a great New Year's and holiday season!
Looking forward at the local on Tuesday, gonna be switching to a UR build to see how it feels with Okos running around (Red...
Been wanting to play in Bant forever, since it was a powerhouse when I was last really active many moons ago.
@Kobe: That being said, with a distinct lack of pw-specific removal in Bant colors...
