    Re: [Deck] Vial Goblins

    Hey guys, I really love legacy goblins and would love to learn how to play it better. Any suggestions on resources to learn the general principles (e.g. T1 Vial vs Lackey, when not to play Warchief,...

    After being absent from the Magic scene for the last couple years, I thought I'd update my mono blue Pauper deck (mostly just adding Delver).

    Re: [Deck] Mono-Blue Control (MUC)

    I suppose TT vs AK depends on a couple factors.

    1. How many copies you see each game. This looks only at the CA generation.

    TT out-CAs AK on the first flashback; TT creates immediate CA, AK...

    I think BBBB is too hard for a splash to handle. Mono black lets us have Gatekeeper, Hymn, Nighthawk, and the new instant-speed edict.

    Good points. With Canceler eliminating the need for sac outlets, a good portion of the deck is freed up for consideration of better, more one-sided control options. I'm not too experienced, so take...
