  1. Re: New format 'Premodern' if you have not heard about it!!

    Instead of another almost-but-not-exactly eternal format with an arbitrary cutoff point that's almost-but-not-exactly Modern's, I propose a format I like to call "Unreserved": it's Legacy minus any...

    Re: [Primer] UWx Stoneblade

    As someone who played a lot of Stoneblade back before Miracles and Deathrite Shaman, when RUG Delver and Maverick were all the rage, I think this analysis is right. UW Stoneblade does not make for a...

    Re: [Deck] BUG "Shardless" Control

    Others here have made good suggestions, but let me tell you that Baleful Strix and Tarmogoyf are your best assets. Strix makes their attacks difficult (even Smasher if they can't one-shot you) and...

    Re: [Article] Deathrite Is Next

    I think too many people are discounting the impact of the second rationale for Top's banning, and Bob seems to here as well.

    Deathrite is about as powerful as Bob says, and I expect he'll be more...

    The biggest problem with Dead Weight versus Disfigure is that Disfigure is an instant.

    Re: [DTB] BUG "Shardless" Control

    Maelstrom Pulse is pretty much just as effective as Deed in clearing out Angel Tokens, plus a bunch of other problem permanents like planeswalkers, enchantments, etc.

    Indeed, it's Pithing Needle that doesn't stop LED. Null Rod has no exception for mana abilities.

    More likely you'll just end up exiling all copies of Cabal Therapy or Duress instead.

    Re: [DTB] BUG "Shardless" Control

    Hi,

    I was the round 1 opponent ironclad8690 played at CK, and I've advocated for Volrath's Stronghold on here before.

    I will be the first to admit, it's not always great. While I did get lucky...

    Re: [Deck] BUG "Shardless" Control

    I took a hiatus from this deck for a while, but I've been playing some pickup games online and I must say that I still like Volrath's Stronghold. Everyone should give it a try. With Shardless and...

    Re: [DTB] Miracle Control

    Sorry to necro this point but I was away for a couple days and just saw this.

    Of course, a judge may rule otherwise but "move to combat" is close enough to "I'm ready for combat" that it's a...

    Nope, it's a documented shortcut, per 4.2 of the MTR:

    If you really want to tilt them, if they haven't activated their Inkmoth and they say something like "move to combat" and you say okay, it's too late for them to activate their Inkmoth.

    LOL, personal agenda? What does that even mean here? You think he's hoarding copies of Predict and Monastery Mentor and trying to drum up demand?

    FWIW, my personal agenda is to win games.

    Re: [DTB] Miracle Control

    I disagree with this. It is sometimes right to extract bridges, but usually you want to extract either Ichorids or Narcomoebas, whichever shows up first (favoring Ichorid).

    Preliminary Thoughts on Predict

    [DTB] Miracle Control

    The deck is already pretty immune to Wasteland decks given the number of basics it runs and its mainly 2-color requirements.

    I think the delver wasteland decks like RUG Delver are typically happy...

    I haven't really played Miracles in a while, but I do play Shardless, and I can't imagine shaving StPs is at all correct. The deck mainly kills you with creatures, and an experienced Shardless...

    Re: [DTB] BUG "Shardless" Control

    My favorite SB cards for Miracles are Pithing Needle and Null Rod. That's probably enough SB hate for them, but I do bring in Golgari Charm too (Blood Moon or sometimes Counterbalance, the occasional...
