Played at a 104 people tournament yesterday.The field was a jungle but with LOTS of TES/Goblins/Merfolks/Uw.
I finished at 4° doing 6-1.I did not take notes or remember very well the games but I...
Played yesterday my first non-Misstep Legacy tornament since NPH.It was a 41-people tornament in a local shop.
Finished in 4th with TES, 1° from 4° were all 5-1 but I had the worst tiebreaks.
Top8...
@Bryant and others:
Did you ever tested one Wheel of Fate as a SB slot for a heavy BGW metagame?Sometimes I found it is more dificult to beat a Seize+Hymn+KotR/Waste+Deed than a wall of counters.
If I'm correct CounterTop was not having a big sucess before NPH..may be batterskull+stoneforge can change this and ofcourse many old countertop players will go back to the archtype or put CB on...
Same here.. tested and just didn't like it..it is better than EtW MD but worse than 2nd Adn.At SB I just don't want to cut something(if I would have to cut something it would be the 3° bounce spell),...
Played again with TES (3fetch 3city, 2 Adn , 3chat1silence, 4 duress with 3xantid1pyro SB).Got paried against UR painter, UW Stoneblade with shutters, Team Italia,Enchantress,Zoo,BW Stoneforge....
Played yesterday at a 30+ man and finished 3-3, 6 rounds.I beat Merfolks(with Mindbreak Trap SB) 2-0(grapeshot both times), Burn(2-0, iggy both times) , RG(I don't know what the hell he was playing)....
@No Tendrils: I like ToA much more than EtW.. I killed many landstills with ToA from hand and also some times you can't find BW or have alot of mana to IT-> BW.
Just my 2cents.
I have cutted the MD EtW for the Second Ad Nausean pos-NPh and it has been amazing, top 8'ed 3 from 3 tournaments since the change. EtW isn't very good with all these Deeds/Batterskulls around.
Also...
I was discussing about it with another source-combo player, if Hive Mind becames more popular in my meta I will try 2/2 Split or 4 Silence , also you have xantids/pyro to fight against hivemind....
It was a error when I was translating the report, I will fix that and some other small details.Thx!
I was using the old list( before Mental Misstep) , with 3 xantid and 1 pyroblast SB and 3/1...
Just to post a small report about the 66 people tournament that I played last weekend.It was 7 rounds + Top8(which give 2 invitations for brazilian legacy nationals).
My memory is a blank(just a few...
And Stoneforge + Batterskull is reducing Merfolks numbers.It is so good to enter in a tournament without fear.
Also I just top8'ed(1° in swiss with 6-1) again in a 66 people tournament, If I remeber...
Hey guys, I was just thinking about TES vs Hive Mind MU but since I don't know a good Hive Mind player I'm in doubt about what they will side out and in against us, I'm expecting Leylines ,...
A really brilliant play.. I can remember 3 or 4 times where I could have done this line of play but never thought it and just played the mox for storm..that's what I like in storm decks you can...
I posted a more detailed report at a brazilian magic webpage and got the following feedback from one friend and combo player.
"Would you play with a single Doomsday at SB?? So you can make this...
Just top8ed a 64 people tournament with TES(3 city/3fetch , 4duress ,3/1 chant split with 1 pyro and 3 xantid SB).
Played against:
r1:Merfolks 2-0(xantid got it in game2)
r2:Zenith Bant...
Played today a 6 round champ with TES.
I got 3-3.
2-0 GW Taxes
2-0 GW Order
0-2 Spiral Tide(candelabra)(very fast hands and multiples MM + Pact for my chant).
0-2 BGW ( with seize, inquisition,...
@Bryant: Could you share your thoughts about this Mental Misstep metagame, and the Merfolks MU pos-NPH now that you played at Providence?
Thx in advance.
EtW can make it game1 , at game2 they have EE so a Tendrils from your hand could work.
Anyone tested the matchup against Spiral Tide? Some adivices? I just could not test it in time for this weekend tournament.
Also, CB seems bad today with this vial decks , green zeniths, could...
My only issue with chants is when I need a B or R to go and have a Chrome mox but draw chants/silence.
For me Ponder >> Preordain cause the only case where Preordain is better is 2 bad cards and 1 good one without shuffle effect and not going off , everytime a use Ponder I think if Preordain would be...
@Emidln: About Chant vs Seize , do you think the fact that seize can't hit topdecked cards against BG/x can make it worst than Chant in this matchup?Or the fact that you can hit Goyf/Bob and making a...
